Benezette Weekend Getaway: Day 3
This blog post contains photographs and details of our third, and last, day of our weekend getaway. If you missed Days 1 and 2, you may catch up by clicking here.
On December 20 we drove home, leaving from Weedville around 8:00 am, after eating our oatmeal breakfast at the Airbnb. We didn’t see any elk at the Airbnb during our stay, as we had hoped. Elk are not predictable!
Before leaving the area, we went for a drive to Benezette. We looked for elk at places where we had seen elk the previous day and on Saturday afternoon. There were no elk at the Mt Zion Historical Park. There wasn’t any elk at either the Benezette Store campground or at the field past the Benezette Store. We went for a drive on Winslow Hill. We didn’t see any elk at the Elk Country Visitor Center or at the Winslow Hill viewing area. As I wrote earlier, elk are not predictable. We did see a few elk this morning at a couple other places, but not nearly as many as we saw the previous two days. I did not write down the location where we saw these elk.
We believe these elk are the same ones that we saw
at the Mt Zion Historical Park the previous day.
On our way home we stopped at Joey’s Bakery in Ridgway PA for a mid morning snack. The bakery items were slim pickings by the time we arrived. We did find a couple to our liking, though, and purchased tea and coffee as well.
We returned home around 11:30 am. We had a wonderful stay at ”Creekside Cabin”. Both of us agree that we want to spend more time at this Airbnb, possibly in the summertime 2022.

Sounds like a really nice getaway. And you must have really liked the Creek side Cabin as you plan to return. Glad I didn’t miss these posts!
My brother and his family have a get together in July in that area at their cabin, what used to be my dad’s hunting cabin. They invite friends and family for the week, a weekend, a day. We have gone for the day to see everyone. Next year I would like to stay for a couple nights and see my family for more than a few hours. We may even take our granddaughters with us. The Airbnb has a bedroom with bunk beds.
Hello,
Neat sightings of the elk. The Airbnb sounds nice, I am glad you found a great place to stay.
I wish you all the best in 2022, a very happy and healthy New Year!
