About this property

Creekside Manor on the ‘Sock

A private retreat on the Loyalsock Creek located 10 minutes north of Montoursville, PA and less than 15 minutes from Williamsport, the home of Little League Baseball. Our retreat sits on the pristine waters of the Loyalsock Creek with access right behind the home to swimming, fishing and kayaking.

Our 5 bedroom vacation home is meticulously maintained and is completely furnished with all necessary linens/towels, dishes, utensils and cookware. Creekside Manor has a unique character with the abundance of richly appointed wood and mountain stone harvested from the surrounding forests many years ago. We like to refer to it as "rustic luxury"! It is truly a home away from home in a beautiful setting.
You'll have the entire house and surrounding grounds available to you during your stay. Our property is set up as a vacation rental so you won't have to worry about navigating through an owners personal items and searching for your own storage space or working around someone else's refrigerator contents. Our bedroom closets are empty as are dressers, drawers and bathroom cabinets.
There is a separate garage not connected to the house and this is not accessible to guests.

During the summer months of June to mid-August, we have a one week minimum stay and our weeks run from Saturday to Saturday. So, check in on a Saturday and check out on a Saturday. During the Little League Baseball World Series period starting in mid-August, we provide the opportunity to reserve any 10 consecutive nights desired. Our rates during that period are also adjusted to reflect the market pricing. Other times of the year we have either a 2 or 3 night minimum and any available nights can be booked.
One bedroom and one bathroom on the ground floor.
Four bedrooms and one bathroom on second floor at the top of a 13 step staircase.
We are located in an area that draws outdoor enthusiasts including those who like to fish, hunt, hike and camp. The Consolidated Sportsmen Club of Lycoming County is located in our same valley. Don't be alarmed if you hear shots coming from that area.
The area is served by a rural electric co-op and there are times that the power goes out. It may not happen for months at a time, but on the occasion that it does occur, it generally is out for no more than 1 to 2 hours.
We do not provide watertoys, canoes, or kayaks for liability reasons but welcome you to bring your own or rent them from a local provider.
We offer a beautiful flagstone patio with a gas fire pit surrounded by Adirondack chairs.
There's also a great campfire ring along the creek for your use. Campfire wood is provided.
Additionally we have an indoor fireplace that is available for guest use during the appropriate season. We provide the fireplace wood as well.

Home Away From Home

Our family just returned from our second stay at Creekside Manor and will stay there again when visiting the Williamsport area. This trip our group consisted of five adults and two young teens. Creekside allowed individuals space for alone time, and also rooms for the entire family to gather. We always find Creekside Manor well maintained and clean with inviting and interesting decor. Outside the view of Loyalsock Creek running below the forest is beautiful and relaxing, and often offers a glimpse of an American Bald Eagle seeking its prey. The host Michael was always available and responsive if we had questions or needed assistance.Creekside Manor is a great home away from home and we recommend highly. Just don't take our spot!

Great house in scenic location

Clean, cozy, and spacious, Michael's property had everything we needed for a weekend together in scenic PA. The creekside location is awesome, but amenities like groceries and more are literally just down the road and super easy to get to. Michael was extremely responsive and helpful with everything. Highly recommend!

Great house and location

Our two families spent Thanksgiving together at the "Manor". Great set-up with two comfortable rooms to socialize in (too cold to use the sunroom), nice kitchen and table that expanded to accommodate the nine of us. Beautiful surroundings with river that supplied us with two trout! Very cozy.

Little League World, Series

We selected this property so that it could hold my family as we were there to cheer on my sister umpiring in a Little League World Series. The place was spacious, clean and beautifully located along the creek. We also enjoyed dining at Pier 87, since we were back-and-forth to the ballpark multiple times a day and every day. It was a great gathering place for my sister to even come when she wasn’t umpiring.

Best Rental Yet!

Owner was so wonderful to communicate with! House is lovely! Very cabin like. Probably the cleanest rental we have seen! I loved the decor and floor plan, simple and open. Living room is so cozy with the fireplace and the TV room was bright and beautiful. The sunroom was the perfect place to eat for our family of 11 with a lovely view of the woods and creek. The back yard had two sitting areas that gave the same view. The constant sound of running water was delightful and so nice for sleeping. It was cool enough in June to have the windows open. Very few mosquitos. Many happy family memories. The children swam in the creek every day, multiple times a day. We also enjoyed Williamsport, World's End State Park and the Lewisburg farmer's market on Wednesday, 8-3.

Absolute gem of a property

The pictures do not do this hose justice. One of the coziest places I've ever stayed (and I seek out cozy cabins). Beautiful wood paneling throughout and a fantastic fireplace made this a perfect winter retreat. The host was very responsive and takes excellent care of the property. We're looking forward to making our visit here an annual tradition!

Creekside Manor is just what you need!

You can tell that great care and thought has been put into creating an enjoyable experience for guests. The kitchen is well stocked and has just about anything you could need to feed a large family. The house is even larger and cozier than you would think from the pictures. The creek and property surrounding the house are dreamy and so peaceful. We'll never forget the 10 days we spent at Creekside Manor and can'y wait to return!

About the host

Hosted by Michael

Host profile image
My wife Sherri and I now live in New Smyrna Beach, Florida. We are recent "empty nesters" with both of our kids now out of college and out of home. I grew up in Montoursville, PA just outside of Williamsport. I spent much of my childhood on the Loyalsock Creek - trout fishing, canoeing, swimming, camping and hiking in the surrounding forests. We are fortunate to be able to now escape to our Pennsylvania retreat, Creekside Manor, occasionally to continue those activities. We still go back as an entire family whenever we can and revive great memories from years past. But most of the time, we make it available for guest rental as we love sharing our special property with others!

Why they chose this property

We have gorgeous views of the Loyalsock Creek directly behind the home as the property borders on this beautiful waterway. Walk down to the creek front using either the steps or the sloped ramp for a swim, trout fishing, tube floating or an evening campfire. We are in the Pennsylvania Mountains adjacent to numerous state forest lands but conveniently located within 15 minutes of Williamsport center city.

What makes this property unique

Creekside Manor is full of charm and unique character. We are far enough away from town for a rural experience yet close enough for quick access to conveniences and needs.
