About this property

Welcome to our delightful bungalow, nestled along a serene trout fishing creek. It's the perfect getaway, far enough from town to unwind, yet close enough to ensure you don't miss out on the action. Prepare to be amazed by the stunning Ricketts Glen, just a short 10-mile journey away. And guess what? We've got not one, but two historic covered bridges within a mile, doubling the charm factor!

Our bungalow sits pretty on a spacious 2+acre lot, offering privacy galore and a whopping 400 feet of prime creek frontage. Calling all fishing enthusiasts! This creek is a hotspot for trout, so get ready to reel in some excitement. Whether you're a seasoned pro or a first-time angler, this creek caters to all skill levels, ensuring everyone has a splashing good time.
Fishing isn't your thing no problem we got you covered with relaxation and comfort within the place. Enjoy a fine wine or cigar on the deck overlooking the creek while taking in the beauty of the forest below. We certainly welcome all guests with the desire to connect with nature yet keep in touch with the comforts of home.

But wait, there's more! We're providing a thrilling water adventure with 2 kayaks, paddles, and life vests. Dive into the excitement and explore the creek at your own pace, feeling the refreshing spray as you paddle along. And when you've had your fill of aquatic fun, gather 'round the inviting campfire. Picture this: toasty marshmallows, laughter-filled storytelling, and the gentle flow of the river serving as your backdrop. It's the perfect recipe for unforgettable evenings and cherished memories.

Conveniently located just off Route 80, our bungalow is a gateway to nearby attractions like Bloomsburg University, Geisinger, and the super fun Knoebels Park. And hey, if you need a break from the creek, our deck offers is the perfect spot to enjoy a quiet moment.
So pack your bags, bring your sense of adventure, and get ready for a fin-tastic time at our fabulous creek-side retreat. We can't wait to have you!

Clean and private

My siblings, spouse and I stayed for a long weekend. We really enjoyed use of the fire pit and switchback path to the creek. The home was very clean and well stocked with extra cozy blankets. I'd love to go back during warmer weather to take advantage of the kayaks.

So quiet and secluded!

Our stay was amazing and exactly what we were looking for. It was so peaceful. The sound of the water from the creek while sitting on the patio was perfection. Did not get to use the fire pit because we did not want to risk anything with all the wind, but we are hoping to come back and use that and the kayaks! The bed was so comfortable! Definitely cant wait to book again!

Great stay

We enjoyed our stay at Chris's place. It was super clean. We really liked the trail behind the house down to the creek, and so did our dogs! The house is less than 30 minutes from Ricketts Glen State Park, which was great too.

Cozy Cabin Indeed!

Myself, my partner, and our elementary-aged son stayed here and honestly this place is nicer than it even looks online, which is rarely the case. The hill down to the creek is a little steep but if you are mobile, definitely worth checking out. It was SO QUIET the whole time we were there and only about a 15 minute drive to groceries and such. Chris was very communicative the whole time. Also there were lots of extra clean towels and blankets! The deck was lovely. We stayed in Autumn but I bet summer is even nicer and winter is a dream. There are chickens living next door but no rooster so they were fun to watch free range around. Also the beds and pillows were very comfortable and I am a terrible sleeper but I slept like a baby. Highly recommend this place. Looking forward to staying here again sometime :)

Such a beautiful setting!

A charming cabin. We absolutely loved it! Two things: we had to buy a box fan.. the August heat was too much for the window AC. We loved the kayaks, but access to Huntington Creek was very difficult. I realize that a small deck over the creek would likely get damaged by winter storms, but perhaps a set of steps. Five stars!

This was such a cute cabin. Very clean and updated inside. Stocked with towels and bed linens which was so nice! It is a little walk to the creek down the hill .we had a 3 yr old and 6 yr old that it was a little steep for them at some parts but with our help they made it up and down. My husband and 10 yr old enjoyed exploring the creek on the kayaks. While we stayed here we went to knobels one day an easy 35 minute drive there and then the other day we went to Rickets Glenn about 25 minute from cabin.and highly recommend visiting there! Overall we had a fun few days making memories with our kids.

Peaceful weekend get away

The property was fantastic and had everything we needed. We enjoyed morning coffee on the porch overlooking the creek, kayaking, fishing, and an afternoon fire for lunch. Proximity to Bloomsburg is great dining options if desired, but what we enjoyed most was just relaxing at the cabin. Owners were thoughtful, responsive and accommodating. We will definitely revisit this wonderful property.

Amazing Hiking Stay

Our visit to Creekside cabin

What a lovely place! We stayed here for just a few days, my husband, myself, and our 16-year-old grandson. Our grandson loves nature photography and spent hours on the trail to the water and sitting by the water. The house was clean and comfortable. The View from the patio was lovely, especially at night with the lights that mark the trail to the water. Everything we needed was there with a well stocked kitchen and plenty of clean towels, a comfortable bed,linens, and pillows. We are already discussing when we can come back in the spring. (And one important note there is a Switchback Trail to the water that I was easily able to manage as a grandma in her 60s!) We heartily recommend this place!
