Pepacton Cabins

We went in July with our three teenagers and stayed in the Oquago. We loved the rustic cabin and the setting. The cabin was comfortable with real mattresses on the beds and a kitchen with just enough amenities to get by pretty comfortably. We are bird watchers, and we got to see many kinds of birds without ever leaving our cabin site. The river was too high, so we were not allowed to rent canoes so that was a bummer. We had really wanted to make canoeing part of the trip and did not foresee this possible problem when making reservations months earlier. FYI: The water is a climb of a few feet down a bank off the cabin yard with a little room for sitting next to it. We enjoyed taking a drive to hike the Catskills on some Delaware Trails. Look for Russell Brook Falls online. It is absolutely beautiful. Do all of your researching and planning of the area before you arrive, because there is no WiFi or cell phone service… even in Downsville it’s spotty. Next time I’d bring a radio for the weather forecast. We do not fish, but this is an awesome area for fly-​fishing. The water was too cold for swimming.

Love this place! Was there 2 years ago at the lodge and back again in August in the cabin while other family members took the lodge. What a blast sitting on the back deck of lodge waving to the people going down river, to the silence of our camp fires at night in front of the cabins. The long walks down sweet country roads was heaven on earth. My husband and I enjoyed the calming sounds of the river and the relaxed nature trails just soothing. Jeff and Annie were amazing hosts as always and her garden on their private property is a sight to behold, talk about having it all. You’ll find it all here at the cabins, whether you stay in the lodge, loft or cabins, it is rustic chic for sure. Will be back next summer to decompress as only Pepacton can bring.

Exactly what we were looking for. Simple rustic cabins along the river with just the right amount of quiet and privacy. Great place to hunker down for a long weekend in any weather.

Very quaint and cool little cabins. Exactly what I was expecting, and for around $ 100 a night for 2 people, reasonably priced for a memorable experience. I wouldn’t recommend trying to find this place in the dark (I speak from experience) as some of the roads leading up to it don’t have the best signage and there are some interesting features you have to traverse on your way there such as a one lane bridge.
My boyfriend and I stayed for only one night, but would like to return to these cozy cabins. The cabins themselves are located only about 50 feet from the bank of the river which makes the scenery interesting and also good for activities like fishing and hiking. It was very quiet when we stayed since it was off season. It appears like it could be lots of fun to rent a cabin with 4 – 6 people and grill outside, have a fire in the pit provided, and eat at the picnic table.
The cabins are small, yet comfortable and cutely rustic. Look for the cool guest books that have been signed in variably hilarious and sincere ways throughout the years. They have one large bed, two bunks, and a loft bed. The bathroom was tidy but a bit crude, especially the shower. It was clean but definitely outdoorsy and basic. The kitchen area included everything you need to prepare your own meals. The fridge was a decent size and they had lots of plates, pans, silverware, and cooking utensils for guests to use. One thing to note, is that there is electricity but no television, radio, or alarm clock provided in the cabin. It would’ve been nice to have brought a radio with us, had we known. Cell phone signal was pretty much nonexistent also, fyi.
The owner was very pleasant when I called to ask some questions and make a reservation. She emailed me detailed directions, which was nice. I had a print out of the directions, which was important because the cell phone and internet service was patchy along the approach there, i.e. no gps/​mapquest on my phone.
In summary, pack like you are going on an extravagant camping trip: you won’t need a tent, but it’s probably worth it to have extra amenities such as flash lights and a radio. Not a «five star» experience in the classic sense of the word, but if you want a fun, rustic getaway these cabins deliver.
