FAF Outfitters-Tioga Trout Fishing
Excellent Property. Excellent Logistics-very close to PA Grand Canyon and fishing Darling Run. Property was in excellent shape and offered the group the most relaxing and tranquil stay. Joe provided open communication throughout the process and was an excellent host! We have stayed in other lodges but the “Octagon” by far has been one of our best stays!!!

Great Spot for a Family Get-Together
This Pine Creek cabin was perfect for our family weekend: unique architecture, a beautiful setting, and plenty of room for all of us to spread out. Convenient to the Pine Creek Rail Trail -- a beautiful spot for our bike ride -- and to the local bike rental. Not too far from downtown Wellsboro. The house itself was well-equipped, clean and comfortable. Thanks for a great stay!

Multi-generation family getaway
Four generations of our came together for a family celebration and had a fantastic time! As stated in other reviews, the stairway inside the cabin is not easily maneuvered, but the outside stairway to the second floor provided an easy solution to accessing the bedroom level. The property provides access to a beautiful stream, and we enjoyed hours of fishing at the pond and sitting around a fire at the enormous fire pit.

Amazing property
This property was excellent for our large group of fisherman. The owner communicated woth us whenever we needed anything. Cabin is absolutely beautiful. The cabin is going through some renavations on the outside, and luckily we brought a truck load of fire wood for the fire pit because there was none there but we knew that could be a possibility. If your looking for wildlife there was plenty between turkey, deer and coyotes. Are group is looking forward to booking again next year.

Wonderful property.
This property provided a wonderful opportunity to gather with family and friends for the weekend. The unique architecture and space allowed for great fireside talks and meals in the open dining/living area. As advertised the sleeping space is ample and our group was very comfortable and able to spread out after a long weekend hiking the laurels and ridges in Potter county. Looking forward to coming back next year!

Return to Pine Creek and mountain views
To say this was our fourth consecutive stay at the Octagon is the easiest endorsement I can give to the amazing cabin, property, and hospitality of Joe and Maitland. The mountain trails, peaceful flow of the Pine Creek, generously sized fire pit, and ample cabin space make this an excellent location for our combined family and friends trip each Autumn. A short drive from the historic county seat in Wellsboro, the property is a welcome retreat for us each year - we are already planning our return in 2024.

Nice rustic cabin
We enjoyed our stay. The grounds were well maintained, area is beautiful. The game room has some issues, couches in main cabin need some serious TLC, and the main staircase needs to be redesigned (external staircase is a workaround, but that cannot the primary means of reaching upper floor.). Kitchen works well enough, bathrooms were clean and ac works great.

Family Vacation
The house was nice. Didn't like the fact that the upstairs bathrooms were open above the doors. The portable air conditioners that are upstairs only one of them was working so it was hot up there. It says remote location but there is a house right at the end of the driveway that looks directly onto the house and property. While we were there they came to mow the grass. That should have been scheduled when no one was renting the house. We had to move everything out of the yard so he could mow.
