The cottage has it all. No neighbors in sight, it is overlooking the pristine West Branch of the Susquehanna River at the gateway of the PA Wilds. If location is everything this is it. Only 8 miles out of Lock Haven, Clinton County, Pennsylvania, where there are great restaurants, stores, and everything one may need. Bordering Sproul State Forest on two sides of the property, which has over 305,000 public acres. The property itself is 47.5 acres with over a mile of river frontage. It has stair access to the river, where one can enjoy kayaking, swimming, fishing, or whatever else. Area highlights: Bakers Run – a trout stream that has plenty of wild and stock trout year around is located miles away. It is a great location for the first day of fishing. Additionally, there is a public boat launch which makes for a great float back down to the cottage. Hyner View – possibly the most beautiful park in the Commonwealth is only 15-20 minutes away.
