Relax in the living room with the original log cabin wall and exposed beams in front of the warm fireplace. This room has an intimate, snug and warm feeling. Although visitors will enjoy the charm of days gone by they will appreciate the modern touches of the home’s complete renovation in 2019. Craftsman restored the original logs and chinking from the home. Exposed rough cut beams adorn the living room and upstairs bedrooms. Renters will enjoy the space of three bedrooms plus an additional child’s loft space for playing or sleeping. One of the bedrooms is a traditional colonial “keeping room”.

Guests enter the keeping room through double barn doors. This room has a relaxing feel with water-views and access to the yard. In addition to the keeping room/bedroom, guests will likely spend time gathering around the gas fireplace in the living room.
The home has two bedrooms upstairs with a full bathroom between the rooms. The feeling of space is accented by the 12 foot high ceiling emulating post and beam construction. This first bedroom has a queen size bed. The second bedroom has room to sleep five people with three single twin beds and a children’s loft with a full mattress. The headroom to the top of the loft is about 5 feet. The downstairs living room also have sleeping options with a queen sofa bed.

There is a sunken area with a stone fire pit to enjoy toasting marshmallows. There is also a large alfresco dining area. The back yard is accented with low stone walls built by hand. The tall cedar fence on the west side of the yard provides complete privacy. The east side is blocked by the homes tall, rustic, barn-like garage.
Guests will appreciate the quiet one-way street of this location. Traffic is minimal since most cars are headed to the few homes on this street. The locations is an easy walk to the town’s park that has a boat (kayak) launch and playground area. It is a nice area for a walk along the creek with your favorite person or four-legged friend. This park is used for the town's July 4th festivities and fireworks. Guests will also enjoy walking through town and checking out the Victorian architecture and gardens of the homes.

Beautifully kept and maintained property. What a relaxing stay and the owner was very inviting! We were welcomed with locally made cookies and milk in the fridge! Would definitely stay again!
This was such a beautiful property. Inside and out. You could really tell its well cared for. The host has truly made it a welcoming home away from home.
Cute little spot to visit with family. My kids loved the loft area and their room. Loved the big island for family visits. Not to mention the complimentary cookies were delicious 🙂.
The house is adorable and spotless, and we love its location on the water. The host was super responsive to all our questions and very accommodating. She even left us delicious chocolate chip cookies! We will stay here again! Extremely convenient to Bucknell, where we were watching our son run!
Great property. Perfect location for wedding in Mifflinburg. We really enjoyed our stay. The home is really pretty, fenced in backyard was perfect for our furry friend, as well. Thanks for letting us enjoy your home!
The entire process was super seamless from check-in to check-out and in between. The house is nicely renovated and appointed, extremely clean & comfortable and dog friendly with a fenced in yard. Brenda is a wonderful host, very communicative and left us very solid cookies from a local bakery .A great spot overall!
Had a great weekend at this beautiful home. Exactly as advertised: clean and newly renovated. It was great to find a home we could bring our pups to visit our daughter at Bucknell.
This property was absolutely beautiful. It felt like home away from home. The lake you could see from the back porch and it was gorgeous to wake up to every morning. My family had so much fun staying here and cant wait to come back!! :) Thank you for letting us stay here at your lovely property.

About the host
Hosted by Brenda
I am a wife and mother of three active boys who love to fish and kayak in the creek. I am also a K12 career counselor in one of the local schools. I am originally from Levittown, outside of Philadelphia. I attended Neshaminy Maple Point.
This is my second venture in taking a "fixer-upper" home in a great location and doing a total remodel to meet the standards of a lovely vacation home. I am an HGTV fan which inspires me to take on "too rustic" homes and make them beautiful.
I attended Bloomsburg University, Indiana University, Bucknell University, and completed my doctorate at Liberty University.
I want all my guests to have a relaxing, comfortable stay.
Why they chose this property
This is my second venture in taking a "fixer-upper" home in a great location and doing a total remodel to meet the standards of a lovely vacation home. Feel free to check out my other property, Bear Den number 678814. I selected this home because of the property site. I loved the access to the creek and views of the farms. I also know that many people visiting the area are attending events at Bucknell or Susquehanna University or wedding in the area or just want to relax in beautiful central PA. This location provides very convenient access to all those venues. I must admit too that I loved the idea that this was an old log home in colonial times! I loved revealing the old log beams and thinking about how old that wood was and the men that hand-hewed the logs. Amazing!
What makes this property unique
Waterfront Charming historical architectural features - log revealed and hand-hewed beams side sitting porch, keeping room Views! Location, Location, Location! Convenient to many sites in Lewisburg, Mifflinburg and Selinsgrove! Heart of Central PA!
