"Creek House"

Our family loved our time at the "Creek House" as our 3 year old would say. Such a beautiful spot. Most of our time was spent down by the creek or the nearby bike trail. Perfect location for our weekend adventure. Thank you to Roxanne & family for letting us stay at your home.

Wonderful!

We enjoyed four days at this cozy cottage on Pine Creek. It was the perfect spot to enjoy some bike riding on the rail trail and some fishing while also celebrating our son’s graduation from nearby Lock Haven University.

Family Fishing Trip

We had a really great time getting away for the weekend. The weather wasn’t the best for fishing but we still made the best of it. The house was so charming, you really felt like it was home away from home. We will be back for another trip for sure.

A gorgeous retreat

We fell in love with the area the second that we entered the neighborhood and it only got better from there. The backyard of this house leads to a creek and Mountain View, you just can’t beat it! If you’re looking for an up-scale home, then this one may feel more dated to you, but if you like a homie feeling place that adds to nostalgia with games and VHS tapes, then look no further!

Beautiful river home!!!

We had a pleasant stay on the river. We were looking for an end of summer trip, we were hoping to be able to swim in the river, unfortunately the weather wasn't the best. It was enjoying enough to be able to enjoy the beautiful property from the porch though. We ended up going on several hikes in the area and just spending some quality time with the kids!!! Very cozy home, very comfortable!!!

Great place close to bike trail and creek

My husband and I had a nice stay! We especially enjoyed relaxing in the sunroom while looking at the scenery and birds and listening to all the sounds of nature! The property was as advertised and we had plenty of room. The owner responded promptly to a question that came up. Location was perfect for direct access to Pine Creek Rail Trail. We would love to stay again and bring our kayaks since the house also has direct access to Pine Creek. The only downside to our stay is that it wasn’t long enough!
