Sunnyday's farm and forest was a Christmas tree farm in the 1950's. I've owned it for the last 30 years and it is now a horse farm with pastures and woods. Rustic area of 25 acres of pastures and forest bordering a hundred of acres of railroad and municipal forest. Great for hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking. 1.5 miles from Deer Lakes park which has fishing, hiking, mountain biking and a great playground. The Allegheny river, judged to be one of the cleanest in the country, is just 6 miles away. Harrison Hills park offers great hiking along the river and an occasional river otter. The Rachel Carson Trail and Baker trail are just a few miles away. It is a secluded log cabin in the woods on top of a hill overlooking a pasture. It is a very primitive cabin with a fireplace, brick floor, large porch, fabric interior and no chinking in the logs. We provide a bunk bed and cots and 2 picnic tables.. There is a large grassy area in front of the cabin for tents. There is no vehicle access, no electricity and no water at the cabin, but LOTS of downed wood for fires. There are horses, goats, chickens, ducks and a pig that roam the pastures. The cabin is about 300 yards from the parking area up a fairly steep hill, but the location is worth the walk! If you're stopping with an RV or trailer we have ample parking near the road and have overnight accommodations for horses Great place for a stopover.

A Secluded Cabin With Horses

We had a wonderful visit. My daughters loved interacting with all of the animals. As soon as we arrived we were greeted by the sweetest pig. My girls explored the pasture and spent their time watching the horses.

A Secluded Cabin With Horses

This is our third time staying at this location. We will continue to come back time and time again. The spot is perfectly secluded with quick access to a nearby gas station for convenience needs, and the animals are so much fun. We hung out with horses, fed goats, and made great friends with the pig!

My girlfriend and I spent the night at Gerard’s property and it was absolutely wonderful. The horses were a delight to play with and ride. We did the 2 hour ride, and Gerard took us on trails and allowed us to do some jumps. Highly recommend Gerard and his property!

The animals took the spotlight

Farm full of gentle, well-socialized animals all of whom you can meet and accept treats as payment. The cabin itself is up a hill, a small trek past the horse barn and pasture. It’s the muddy season right now so Gerard lent me some mud boots and we managed okay. Cabin is pretty rustic and comfortable with a low ceiling. Plenty of firewood and kindling. Even damp after a rainfall we got a cooking fire going. The horses are well-trained and even-tempered, and a little mischievous. Mine could tell I was a new rider and fully took advantage of this to see what I’d let her get away with. She was still a very steady ride and a mature mare so this is probably a group of some of the easiest horses ever. The host is very relaxed and responsive and made it very comfortable to try riding.

Nice cabin in the woods

The host was very nice and accommodating. The cabin is nestled in the woods and is private. You have to walk approximately .25 miles to the cabin. The horses, goat, and pig were cool to see. Bring sheets and a sleeping bag.

Gerard was very friendly and the cabin offers a nicely secluded location highly accessible from pitt! I hope to be back soon!
