This cabin has been in my family for over 40 years, and we love to share it's charm with the world! Sleep like a log in our one-room charming cabin on a small private lake lot with non-motor boats only. Little Elk Lake is 43 acres. Queen bed with linens provided, plus 2 adult cots with pads and sleeping bags. Rowboat plus 1 youth kayak, two adult kayaks and a canoe are available for your use, and we have life jackets in many sizes. We are sorry but the pontoon boat cannot be used by guests. The fishing is EXCELLENT and bring your binoculars - BALD EAGLES frequent the lake! We want you to have so much FUN during your visit, but we are not a party spot. The lake is rural and quiet, and so we must request low noise levels after 10 pm in order to keep our neighborhood HAPPY! :) We welcome everyone, including the LGBQT community and folks from all ethnicities. You'll feel like you are coming home to a safe haven and all guests will be treated with kindness and respect here at Sunset Shore! Don't waste one moment of lake time! GROCERY, PHARMACY and EVEN HOMEGOODS delivery is available. Our local large grocery chain Price Chopper, Rite Aid and Family Dollar all deliver to the cabin. The name of the app is INSTACART. NEW - a Smart TV to keep those little ones entertained on rainy days. A WIFI Hotspot is available in the add-on section of your reservation. We also have a DVD player with a few family-friendly movies. Games, coloring books and drawing paper, etc. are in the cabin. ALSO NEW - We have cold and HOT water at the kitchen sink and a large private outdoor shower/changing room. We ask guests to conserve water since we are hauling water and pumping it into a 275-gallon outdoor tank. Favorite Local Attractions: Foolish Pleasures Hot Air Balloon Rides- They "splash down" on the lake on many evenings! Elk Lake School- Indoor Swimming Pool, Tennis, Track, and Playgrounds are 5 minutes away Skyhaven Airport - Take a ride in a small plane or if you are brave - skydive! 30 minutes away Danny Crisman 9/11 Memorial Park - 5 minutes away. A heartfelt tribute to the victims of the 911 tragedy. Built by the mother of Daniel Crisman who died in the World Trade Center and grew up here. Look for a pic in our photo collection. Luna Vegan-Vegetarian Brewpub - Freshly made Live Culture Yogurts w/ toppings, Kimchi & Sauerkraut Sampler,Beet Kvass, kimchi brine and 12 delectable dishes. Farmhouse Pizzas, Cheeses, Farm-raised Beef Burgers, and Vegetarian Sushi! Six kombucha on tap plus 15 more flavors. Try something different! 25 minutes away Self Discovery Wellness Arts Center - Yoga and Meditation instruction, Energy healing, Aromatherapy, Life Coaching, Labyrinth Walks, A Course In Miracles Study Group, Vegetarian Nutrition, Wellness Counseling and retreats - 15 minutes away Rock Mountain Sporting Clays - Come visit "The Rock" and enjoy the fastest growing shooting sport in the world today! Have fun and shoot in the beautiful setting in NEPA - 10 minutes away. Kayak the River - Our cabin is 30 minutes from access to the beautiful Susquehanna River. Put your 'yak in the water in Laceyville, Meshoppen, Tunkhannock or Falls, PA! Boat rental is available at Susquehanna Kayak & Canoe Rentals in Falls, PA. Please don't remove our kayaks from the property though. Antiquing - Find true treasures at one of many local shops including Apple Wagon Antique Mall or The Old Store in Tunkhannock, PA as well as Feick's Vintage Finds and Rustic Willow near Meshoppen, Americana Roads Antiques in Springville and MANY more! Local Art is AMAZING! The Artist's Open House Tour is FREE and is Columbus Day Weekend annually. Most of these art studios are open YEAR ROUND by appointment. Our favorite shop is #8, Chris Lathrop, who is also the closest, less than 10 minutes away (you'll also see some of her work in the cabin). Call her and schedule a watercolor class! Wine! ... and Beer! We are so lucky to have many locals within a short drive. Check out Nimble Hill Vineyard and Winery and Nimble Hill Brewery, Endless Brewing, Grovedale Winery, Pickering Winery, Antler Ridge Winery, and Hidden Creek Vineyard & Winery. Wine is also available for 2-day delivery on the INSTACART app. Hiking - So many options. Closest only 5 minutes away is Woodbourne Forest & Wildlife Preserve, but many others such as Salt Springs State Park, Keystone College, Lackawanna State Park. Just google it! Creekside Gardens! We LOVE plants. Our favorite garden center, located 30 minutes away in Tunkhannock, offers many fun garden, craft, and decorating activities each weekend. They raise thousands of BUTTERFLIES which you may visit or if you're lucky they may have a butterfly release scheduled when you are here.

Great place.
The scenery was wonderful and the cabin was fully equipped. Half the stuff we brought we could’ve left home. Thank you for such a wonderful experience. I would love to visit it again. oh, and the bed was so comfortable. You can’t find out in half the hotels I’ve slept in.

Beautiful Elk Lake
We love Sunset Shore on Little Elk Lake. This is our 3rd summer there and it never disappoints! The cabin has all the amenities one could ever need and the location and privacy can’t be beat! We had beautiful weather. The stars were so bright at night and we had a lovely time. They are wonderful hosts and I’m so grateful they share their beautiful property and cabin with others. Thank you Jennifer for your hospitality. We will be back next year!

I loved staying at the sunset shore cabin! The views were beautiful and the directions were clear. There were houses directly next door, but we still had plenty of privacy. My favorite part was going out on the dock each morning with my cup of coffee and seeing/hearing all the cows from the farm on the opposite side of the lake. Perfect location for couples or a small family!

Better than expected!
Our first time here and it was even better than expected! Jenn has everything you could need. Just like it says, bring food and clothes and that’s it. Perfect for a couples get away, really romantic. The lake is so private it feels like you are the only people there. We loved waking up to see the lake from our bed. Our dog Frank had the best time on his first ever vacation. We loved the kayaks and Frank loved the row boat. He is now a boat dog! We will be back again for sure! This will become an annual vacation spot!
