Best Cabin Camping near Cabot, PA

Several campgrounds near Cabot, Pennsylvania provide rustic cabins with varying amenities and comfort levels. Moraine State Park offers cabin rentals with basic furnishings including refrigerators, electric stoves, and heating systems. The cabins at Cook Forest State Park feature twin-sized bunk beds, small tables, and refrigerators, though one visitor noted that "the springs and mattresses were ancient during our stay." Mountain Top Campground in Tarentum and Rose Point Park Cabins & Camping in New Castle provide more modern cabin accommodations with electricity and indoor plumbing. Most cabins include fire rings and picnic tables outside, allowing for traditional campfire cooking and outdoor meals.

Pet-friendly cabins are available at several locations, with dedicated areas for those traveling with dogs. According to one camper at Raccoon Creek State Park, "While most of the campgrounds in the park are no pets, there are 2 loops that allow your furry companions!" Cabin sizes range from small one-room structures sleeping 2-4 people to larger family cabins with multiple sleeping areas. Jellystone Park at Kozy Rest in Harrisville offers deluxe cabin options with more amenities than standard forest cabins. Breakneck Campground provides more primitive cabin experiences, while Bear Run Campground features cottages situated on a hillside with lake views. Reservations are essential during peak season (May through October), with many locations booking up months in advance, especially for holiday weekends.

Most cabins require guests to bring their own bedding, pillows, towels, and personal items. Kitchen supplies vary significantly between locations - some cabins include basic cooking equipment while others provide only minimal facilities. A visitor to Yellow Creek State Park noted their cabins were "right on the water, clean, and private access to the lake." Firewood is typically available for purchase on-site, with prices ranging from $5-6 per bundle. Nearby towns offer grocery stores for food supplies, though some campgrounds maintain small camp stores with essential items. Visitors staying in cabins without air conditioning should consider bringing fans during summer months, as one reviewer mentioned: "The windows do not open very much so bring a fan if you're camping in warm weather."

    Cook Forest State Park Campground & Cabins

    Beautiful

    Cooks forest is absolutely gorgeous. I look forward to returning as there are a lot of hiking opportunities we missed. We stayed in the pet friendly area, which was nice. There is a pet trail through the woods that was really great to take our dog rather than walking around the campground. Our site was right next to a drinking water spigot and a path to the bath house. The sites near ours were in a wooded area, which felt more private than many of the other sites we saw. There was a fore pit and a picnic table. Our fire pit was behind where the camper was parked, which also felt more private. There is no alcohol permitted in PA state parks, so alcohol is prohibited in the campground as well. It was a great spot, and we look forward to returning.

    Cook Forest State Park Campground & Cabins

    Good amount of space

    We stayed here on a busy weekend. The sites are good sized, have a picnic table and fire ring with grill. The bathrooms need to be updated. There are a lot of cracks and crevices where bugs hide and lots of chipped paint. I didn't shower, so no commentary on the warmth/pressure. Look at the campground map before you book your site if being close to a bathroom is important; ours was across the campsite behind us but we had to step in a rock set in the stream to get to it without walking around the loop. Plenty of trees and shrubs for privacy. Lots of firewood both in and outside the park. It's a decent drive to Clarion PA to a Walmart, but there are small camp stores close by.

    Cook Forest State Park Campground & Cabins

    Gorgeous trails

    I live nearby so I'm a bit biased towards the park. Definitely one of my favorite places to day hike. The trails are well maintained, and the scenery changes every few steps. Lush hardwood forest; plenty of shade for summer hikes. Not crowded at all in the off-season.

    We stayed in the Indian Cabin #I11.  There are 4 twin sized bunk beds but be forewarned, the springs and mattresses were ancient during our stay.  There is a small table, a refrigerator, electric stove and oven, and there is heat.  The windows do not open very much so bring a fan if you're camping in warm weather.   The bathhouse is clean and the showers are hot. 

    The cabins can be difficult to find in the dark, but they are located just behind the campground offices.  If you pull around to the rear of the building and look across the creek that is there, you cannot miss them.

    Bear Run Campground

    Loads to do...!

    This campground is deceptively big! The nightly RV sites are close to the park entrance and are relatively flat. The campground hosts themed events, game nights and arts& crafts. There is a swimming pool and playground for the kids. It also has a small café that sells baked goods and coffee. On Saturdays they sell amazing Armish Donuts! 

    Further into the campground the sites turn to more permanent sites. Further up the hill are more cottages and camping. This campground is steep in parts and too large to walk efficiently. There is a fenced dog run area and a beautiful lake. All sites have fire rings. There is an onsite laundry, WIFI, onsite dump station and propane refill station. 

    You can also buy ice and firewood. The campground is gated. Lots to do at the campground and lots to do in the surrounding area. They welcome all furry friends!

    Raccoon Creek State Park Campground

    Pet friendly campsite, with electric

    While most of the campgrounds in the park are no pets- there are 2 loops that allow your furry companions! Loop F includes electric spots! Loved seeing the 'neighbors' dogs get excited and curious when I walked my 4-legged best friend around the site. Clean area , close to a modern bathroom (a few stalls & even 2 showers!) Looking forward to going back at the end of the month.

    Tomlinson Run State Park Campground

    Very wooded campground

    General: 50-site (all but six with electric hookups) campground plus two yurts and three cabins. Two sites are handicap accessible. 

    Site Quality: The sites have gravel pads (except the handicap-accessible ones which were paved). The sites were completely covered with leaves when we were there which made it challenging to determine where the actual (narrow) pad was. Sites appeared to be level. A fire ring and wooden picnic table complete the site. 

    Bathhouse: A little dated but clean. Two of the stall doors did not latch properly. Didn't use the shower so cannot comment but there was a sign indicating it took a while for the water to warm up.

    Activities/Amenities: There is a small camper store, laundry, and a playground. In season, there is lake swimming and a boat dock. There is a fishing area, mini-golf and disc golf, and several short hiking trails. Unfortunately, since we arrived late afternoon and had to depart early the following day (and were camping off-season), we could not take advantage of any of these things. What we lose in activities, we gain in a quieter camping experience with fewer crowds, which is generally preferable for us!

    Raccoon Creek State Park Campground

    Raccoon Creek Camping

    This is a large state park offering electric only sites

    The sites are set amounts the forest and there are several loops to choose from. Loop F is pet friendly. All sites are within walking distance to amenities 

    Amenities are quite run down but functional 

    Wildlife is beautiful and its a short ~10min drive to the beach area of Raccoon Creek lake. 

    Two (2) dump station spots and fresh water taps location throughout the park 

    NOTE: Many sites are not level, you will require blocks/timber to level out campers. Tent campers should choose their site using the photos on the state park site. 

    All sites have a paved car space.

    Breakneck Campground

    Nice little campground

    Our first visit to this campground and we actually found from using this website! We wanted a secluded site and close to Pittsburgh. 

    We arrived around 7pm and there was no check in, we drove around for a while trying to find a spot with a fire ring per some helpful campers. There are two really nice spots by the water which were taken, and we only saw one other in the woods (the other 2 were hidden by a large group of people).

    We ended up finding a flat spot with some tree cover what was far enough from our neighbors but about as close as a bigger campground. Would be good for larger groups. Ton of flat land for tents but saw some people with smaller campers. Firewood is $5 a bucket and clean and dry. Bring a table cloth for the tables. 

    Portapot close by but full bath rooms and showers by main lodge. Lots of tent platforms that overlooked into the woods which would be fun, for a smaller 4 person tent though. 

    As another reviewer stated, there was a super loud group Friday night but Saturday was very peaceful and quiet and we met the owner who checked us in and apologized for the loud group and said he was still getting the campground ready for the season. The price is the same for either spots. 

    Short walk down cheeseman road to trail entrances to McConnells Mills State Park. Short drive to hells hallow or the covered bridge. 

    Overall we had a great time and will be back!

    Milton Loop Campground

    Super Friendly

    There are a number of regular campers that stay here, we found them all very friendly. There are some lots with power and water, some with just water and some without either. Shady spots are somewhat difficult to find, we used a pop up to create our own. Pet friendly and close to a boat ramp, making fishing and kayaking easy.
