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.

Childhood Friends Reunion
The peaceful sense of serenity is exactly what we needed after 2 days of the 100 Mile Yard Sales! The kitchen was well equipped (maybe needed a large kettle to cook corn on the cob). The beds were roomy, and the bathrooms were well stocked. The pool table got a lot of use, and the parking area was large enough for all our vehicles. Our favorite place was the porch!

Extended family getaway
It is a beautiful property. Not just new but smart design. Two king bedrooms, very smart, a family bedroom with two singles and a queen, very smart because little ones dont want to be alone in a new place. Every convenience there is. Wonderful private but not isolated location. Had a wonderful time.

Long need family trip.
I used to come up here all the time as a child. I wanted to take my dad and his brother up. I found this place and seen it was pretty close to our old camp. I was beyond thrilled to find out where it was located and how beautiful it really was on top of the mountain. It was incredibly easy to find because that's the same road we turn off to get to our old camp. Everything about this property was perfect and I can't wait to come back with my wife and kids

The cabin was perfect. So clean and inviting. It had all the feel of a cabin but with the comforts of home. We truly enjoyed our stay. As always, the owner Seth was great with communication. We will continue to rent off Seth for years to come. Thank you for yet another beautiful cabin.

Weekend getaway
We had a wonderful stay at the Barr Top Lodge. Just what we needed to getaway and relax. We enjoyed the fresh 5 inches of snow Saturday morning and took a hike through the mountains and then drove over to the Top of the World overlook. It felt like you were able to touch the clouds. We would highly recommend staying at any of the Barr Lodge locations. Thanks Steve

This place is perfect for the outdoor enthusiasts
This place is clean and layed out well. Plenty of space & bathrooms for everybody to get ready and out in the woods early am. The kitchen is spacious and open. Only thing we missed is a pool table or some entertainment when winding down in the evenings. Overall a great place like these owners other properties we have stayed in.

When we arrived we were wowed by the beautiful lodge. The road up is a little narrow, but we did it just fine. It was so peaceful. Maybe 3-4 cars a day went by. The covered deck is so wonderful. We sat outside on the deck every night till it was completely dark. Sooo relaxing. We would stay again for sure. We appreciate how fast the hosts would get back to us if we had a question. Thank you for renting to us.
