About this property

Cozy creek cottage close to downtown

Come unwind in this cozy cottage located next to Jacks Creek. Conveniently located minutes to downtown Lewistown, 40 minutes to Penn State, 10 minutes to Geisinger Lewistown Hospital, and within 15 minutes to several wedding venues. Sit on the front porch and enjoy the beautiful views of Jacks Creek and local wildlife. Whether you're in the area to fish, catch a Penn State game, or visit friends and family, Jacks Creek Cottage has everything you need.

Enjoy the rocking chairs on the front porch while bird watching or viewing other local wildlife. If you prefer to stay indoors, then enjoy our smart TV with a variety of free movies and TV episodes or log into your own streaming service.

The cottage has everything you need! Can sleep up to 6 guests. There is a queen sized bed in one bedroom and a double sized bed in the other. Both rooms are equipped with blankets and pillows. The sofa pulls out into a queen bed. There is a pack and play available with sheets for babies and toddlers. We provide towels and washcloths, soap, and shampoo and conditioner in the bathroom. There is a linen steamer should you need any suits or dresses steamed before an event. The kitchen is stocked with pots and pans, drinkware, plates, and silverware. There is a Keurig and kcups will be provided for guests. The entertainment center is stocked with board games and toys for children.

The cottage has dual heating (mini splits and a forced air oil furnace) for winter months to keep you nice and warm. You’ll be able to adjust the temperature to your liking on both. The mini splits also provide air conditioning in the summer to escape the heat.

*No Pets*
*No Smoking*

Access to the cottage requires traveling on a gravel lane and over a narrow, one car steel and concrete bridge. The bridge can appear scary to outsiders, but there’s no reason to worry!

It is recommended to have AWD or 4-wheel drive in winter months in case there is snow or ice on the lane.

Stay at the cottage
The little cottage is perfect for a small family. We stayed while we went to the caves and lake tobis . Brooke is a wonderful host that pointed us to a wonderful butcher market. That had the best steaks. I would definitely want to stay hear again.

About the host

Hosted by Brooke

Host profile image
Hi! My name is Brooke. My husband and I grew up in Lewistown, PA. We love spending time with our tiny humans, traveling, and fly fishing. We're happy to share one of our homes with you on the banks of a local trout stream.

Why they chose this property

Adorned with fly fishing decor, this cottage offers a cozy vibe while being close to downtown and local streams. It's an exciting time to visit Lewistown and the Mifflin County area as there are new shops, experiences, and local eateries being added.

What makes this property unique

The front porch offers beautiful mountain views. Sit on the rocking chairs and enjoys visits from hummingbirds and nearby wildlife, including deer, turkey, geese to name a few.
