Had a bad experience

Unfortunately we found bed bugs, after it was too late. Very sickening experience. Owners were responsive to the issue, but I feel they lacked due diligence prior to our stay. Ended up with a significant amount of very irritated bites. I hope they can get it adequately and quickly addressed. This is a nice location and kids loved the swings. There is a nice elk herd and bull nearby. We frequently visit the area every year, but this was our first stay at this location, wish I could have had all good things to say…

Shed hunt

I have stayed at Camp Can’t Keep Up twice now, and have enjoyed each stay. This year, the hot water heater quit working during our stay. I contacted the owners before going out for the day. By the time we returned they had already been there and installed a new water heater. Very good people to work with. Unfortunately we didn’t find any sheds. But there is always next year!

Great camp for hunting season

Pulling up to the cabin the pictures were exactly what they showed. The inside is beautiful with all the great mounts on the wall. It was perfect and comfortable for 5 people. Could fit a couple more and still be fine with the space. It’s in a great location for wildlife viewing and/or hunting. I would definitely say there again.

Nice rustic cabin

We enjoyed our stay at “Camp Can’t Keep Up” for our first time in Elk Country…the kids didn’t want to leave! Rustic but pretty cozy cabin. Two things for future guests to be aware of…the tap water has quite a strong sulfur smell so we were definitely glad to have bottled water. Also, the cabin had a very strong old musty smell, seemingly from all the animal mounts…? We did get used to it by the second day though. Overall we enjoyed our stay!

This cabin was very nice, with added bonus of being quite private. The creek behind the cabin and the porch are also great assets.

Camp Can't Keep Up...but that's ok!

We had a wonderful time, the cabin was very clean and comfy, and the property is beautiful. Only one thing, and this is not something the owners can change, is the (well) water smells. Be sure to bring drinking and cooking water. Other than that, it's a 5 star rating from us Bob and Toni

Elk Expo 2024

The cabin was spotless and sanitary. Our only complaint was cobwebs and dust on the taxidermied animals. The check-in process was easy. The photos on the listing show elk in the property yard. We talked to locals around the property and were told no elk have been seen in this area in 4 years. I am sure they are around, but we did not happen to see any at the property during our stay. Communication was clear with the property manager and they even sent links to local things to do in the area. The location is amazing off a dirt road with low traffic. The property also has a stream that runs along the backyard. One other complaint would be the lack of blinds on the windows.

Great place to get away

Myself and 3 friends came to ride dual-sport motorcycles in the mountains. This camp is right on the BDRX route, but we also did a fair bit of just exploring and riding wherever the mountain roads took us. We stayed for 4 nights. This was a perfect place for us to plan our day trips and return to for dinner and to relax. The back porch swings and the sound of the creek in the back were nice. NOTE: You will need to bring your own linens and towels. The tap water did have a bit of a smell so also bring your own drinking water.

Perfect

My son graduated from Penn State last weekend and instead of doing the traditional State College experience… we decided fly fishing and a remote getaway is just what the family needed. Our stay was perfect, even though it had rained the entire weekend.. it didn’t stop our fishing/relaxing. We headed into State College for the official graduation and returned afterwards. A weekend earned and time well spent celebrating successes. - Thank you!! - Amy

Family weekend

We had a great weekend, the cabin was nice and had all the kitchen utensils needed to prepare meals. Just a note you have to bring your own bedding and towels. You may also request bedding and towels through the hosts for a fee. We had our grandkids with us and our sons and daughter in law, a fun weekend was had by all.
