Hearts Content Getaway in the ANF

Welcome to our little slice of heaven in my favorite area of the Allegheny National Forest (ANF). If you’re looking for a relaxing getaway in the forest, Hearts Content is your spot! Outdoor enthusiasts of all kinds are welcome! Whether it be hiking, orienteering, mountain biking, hunting, fishing, snowmobiling, or cross country skiing, you can do it all from this location! During the winter, you will need AWD or 4WD as the cabin is located on a private lane not maintained by the township. The space Dogs are welcome! Max of two dogs per stay. There is an up charge cleaning fee of $50. We do not allow cats at this time. Note: There is little to no cell service, depending on your carrier. You will need to turn on your wi-fi calling, as there is no landline. Other things to note About this little gem in the ANF: Hearts Content is a hemlock, white pine, northern hardwood forest. The old growth forest is over 122 acres, but the Hearts Content scenic area is most famous for its 20 acres of tall white pine and eastern hemlock. Many of those trees have diameters of over 40 inches and heights of over 140 feet. The white pine are between 300 and 400 years old. The 20 acres were owned by Wheeler and Dusenbury Lumber Company from 1897 to 1922. Wheeler and Dusenbury then deeded the land to the U.S. Forest Service in 1923. Hearts Content is designated as a National Natural Landmark. This forest is a part of the historic homelands of the Munsee Lenape people(s).
