Pennsylvania may not be the first state on your list for outdoor adventure, but it's home to plenty of hidden landscapes and mountains to explore. With the Allegheny and Pocono mountains spanning much of the Northeast, the Appalachian mountains running through its center, Lake Erie in the uppermost northwest corner, the Laurel Highlands to the southwest, the Delaware River it's eastern border, and Philadelphia and Pittsburgh on either side of the state, PA packs a lot into its borders, and you'll find plenty of Pennsylvanians who love to spend time exploring it.
State forests and parks cover over half of the state, and the numerous lakefronts, rivers, reservoirs, and ponds are also popular spots to hang out. It doesn't have the extreme outdoors sports culture of the West, but it does have a crack-open-a-cold-one-and paddle-languidly-around-a-body-of-water-with-friends culture, which is arguably just as enriching.
This all means Pennsylvania cabin rentals are set up for you to enjoy nature and bask in the glory of simple pleasures, like a morning cup of coffee on the deck. And we searched the internet to find you the nineteen best cabin rentals across the state where you can do just that. So whether you're escaping Philly, New York, Pittsburgh, or another metropolis for the weekend, or simply craving some solitude, scroll on to find the perfect vacation home for your next Pennsylvania getaway.
