About this property

Barr Top Lodge - Newly Constructed in 2023, Secluded and Remote in the Elk Range

Barr Top Lodge is the Newest of the Barr Top Rentals fleet of vacation rentals in the PA Wilds. You may already be familiar with our others, Camp Critter, Dream Ridge Lodge and Bull Hollow Lodge and formerly Barr None Lodge. Barr Top Lodge is our newest construction and we began renting in September of 2023. If you previously stayed at Barr None Lodge, you will be immediately familiar with Barr Top. Located just "above" Barr None, Barr Top is the same construction only this time, on a full basement instead of a 2nd floor. Situated in the heart of the Elk Range and just a mile from Hicks Run, this lodge provides guests with a quiet and remote wilderness getaway.

As with our other Lodges, Benezette PA is our guests most frequent destination from the lodge. The Winslow Hill Viewing Center is a 20 minute drive from the lodge. The Hicks Run Viewing center is a 5 minute drive from the lodge. Visitors also enjoy nearly endless fishing and hiking opportunities.

We offer all the comforts of home. Fully furnished and equipped, you can leave everything but your clothes and food at home. We provide linens and towels, a kitchen complete with every pot, pan or utensil you will need, High Speed Unlimited Internet, Big Screen Smart TV, a Huge Walk in Shower, Central Air and more.

Other amenities include a spacious finished basement complete with Pool Table, Television and lounging area. The kids are welcome to bring their game machines and plug into the 55" TV in the basement.

Seclusion is one of the lodge's most valuable assets. Sit on the huge covered deck or take your camp chairs to the fire ring (with cooking rack) and enjoy the peace and quiet.

The Lodge is accessible year round (4 Wheel Drive is a must in the winter). We look forward to hosting you. Seth and Kevin, Barr Top Rentals.
Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a kitchen, a washing machine, and 2.5 bathrooms.

This is the second time we’ve stayed at this property and it won’t be our last. The house is clean and comfortable and has all the comforts of home. There’s plenty of room to spread out and unwind after a long day. The pool table in the basement adds an additional form of entertainment.

Barr Top Lodge was the perfect place for our family of 7 to stay. The amenities were exactly what we needed for a relaxing weekend. The kids sure did enjoy the pool table. I was slightly disappointed with the cleanliness, but i know that can be difficult being in the woods.
