Life, it seems, is starting to return to normal this year. Everything from restaurants to concerts to travel is opening up again. For Northeasterners ready to book their first vacation of 2022 but not quite ready to pull the trigger on an international getaway, why not book a cabin rental in PA? From the classic romance of log cabin rentals in the Pocono Mountains to lake cabin rentals on Lake Erie, the Keystone State is home to some of the country’s best cabin rentals. A change of scenery (near a lake) in Pennsylvania is a great way to get the spring season started.

Just bring your fishing gear.
