Blessed quietness! Enjoy birdwatching on a cozy back porch. The night sky is perfect for stargazing. Lycoming Creek is a short walk away and the nearby town of Trout Run is appropriately named for fishing enthusiasts. Enjoy canoeing, hiking and biking nearby or on great Rails-To-Trails bike paths in the area. Spring, summer, fall foliage, and winter beauty! We are 11 miles to Pennsylvania College of Technology and 13 miles to Lycoming College. The PA Grand Canyon (43 miles) and Corning Museum of Glass (67 miles) are easily visited on day trips. In August, you are only 16 miles from getting a front-row seat at the Little League World Series. Our basement guest suite has a private bilco door basement entry. We occupy the ground floor living area that is above the basement guest suite.

If you are looking for a sleek, modern place to stay, opt for one of the many hotels in the area. This property offers a cozy, home-like landing place for a visit to this beautify part of the country. The hosts have set it up with a number of amenities that add to the comfort of their guests. We had plenty of space to spread out. The wifi access was terrific and allowed us to work while we were there. I highly recommend this property!
Stayed at this property for a week while working. Property was very nice I enjoyed the decor and location. Property managers were pleasant and accommodating.
The place was very clean and everything was provided. It was a little difficult getting in and out of the basement with all our luggage. The outdoor space is great. It is a lovely county setting.
The hosts were creative in putting the space together in a country setting, and the accomodations were beyond adequate. Thank you!

About the host
Hosted by Tom & Wanda MacAvoy
In 2013, our daughter and son-by-choice purchased the small farm where Wanda grew up, and her mom sectioned off 1.5 acres and had this modular built. We moved in with her in 2020 and built the basement living space, never expecting her to pass away so quickly (2022). What to do with this beautiful place? You can guess! 😀
Why they chose this property
We love Upper Powys Road and its closeness to Lycoming Creek AND Williamsport.
What makes this property unique
If you love birds, you will enjoy the plethora of songs we hear! Having woods, water, and open fields all in this area makes it a bird paradise! (Feeding them helps too!)
