Warm & inviting, Family oriented cabin on the creek.


Welcome to Duncan's Den, named after our beloved black lab. This cabin is cozy and inviting with all the comforts of home. It is a perfect getaway for families, friends, and couples. The cabin is for 6 people maximum
Inside, you will find an open floor plan with a living room and dining room. Just off the living/dining room area is a half bath/ laundry room. There is a large, well equipped kitchen with pots, pans, dishes, utensils, crockpot, coffeemaker (full pot & K-cup).
Upstairs has 3 bedrooms (sleeps 6 comfortably), a full bath, and a walk-in closet. Two bedrooms have queen size beds, and the 3rd bedroom has two twin size beds. There are plenty of dressers and closet space to unpack and feel at home.
Outside has a large, deep front porch with rocking chairs, a swing, and a pub height table & stools. It is the perfect place to sit during the summer rain showers. Relax while taking in the views and sounds of the beautiful Penns Creek. From the front porch swing or rocking chairs you can see the bald eagles, eaglets, herons, ducks, geese, and more. There is a generous yard perfect for kids and a fire pit in the back yard and by the creek. Private access to the creek for fishing, launching your kayaks/canoes, playing in the water, or just relaxing.
While you are here, be sure to visit the many wineries in the area, Penns Creek Pottery, T&D's Cats of the World, Penn's Cave, PA Grand Canyon, Raymond B. Winter State Park, Gettysburg National Park, Buffalo Valley Rail Trail (trail head behind Amy's Frosty Freeze in Mifflinburg), Knoebels Amusement Resort, Hershey Park, Antique shops, and great restaurants close by. Penn State, Bucknell, and Susquehanna Universities are 20-60 minutes away.
Hunters - the State Game Lands are close by.
Fly Fisherman - trophy trout section is a few miles upstream.
There is L&L Marketplace about 4 miles south (very close to Shade Mountain Winery, a must stop!) or Weis Markets in Mifflinburg, about 5.2 miles, where you can stock up on food.
A charcoal grill is provided (guests provide their own charcoal). Wood is provided for use in the fire pit (for a campfire each night of your stay. If you plan to have a campfire going throughout the day you will need to bring additional firewood).
Enjoy high speed internet and Roku TV during your stay.
Baby gate & corral are provided for the top and bottom of the staircase.
Guests can enjoy board games, reading, and air hockey.
The cabin is meticulously cleaned between each guest, and fresh bed linens and towels are provided.

Relaxing front porch
My wife and I, along with our son, his wife and infant child enjoyed a weekend away. Most of the time we spent eating and chilling on the front porch as we enjoyed the sounds and sights of the creek flowing by. Also fished and kayaked. The cabin has everything you need. It is clean and thoughtfully furnished. Beds are very comfortable. Check in and communication was easy. Would highly recommend for a family cabin vacation.

Charming Cottage!
We enjoyed a wonderful stay at Duncan’s Den! The home is clean, comfortable and has so much wooded cabin charm. The hosts were fantastic - very responsive, thoughtful and met all of our needs. Mifflinburg is a cute small town, too. Thanks for a great stay!

Didn't want to leave!
This is our 2nd stay at Duncan's Den and it won't be our last! This cabin has everything you would want or need for a relaxing vacation. From the welcome bottle of wine to the well stocked coffee bar, this house has it all! We love to sit on the porch and listen to the creek and watch the horse and buggies go by. My husband caught some nice small mouth bass in the creek. Clean, comfortable and A plus hosts. Thank you, Mary and Bill, for another perfect stay.

The perfect place to relax with family!
We stayed at this cottage for 4 days over the holidays and it was the perfect place to relax and enjoy family time. The property is exactly as described and has everything you would need. The air hockey table was a great bonus that our family enjoyed for several hours. We brought the long leash for our dig and en enjoyed time in the backyard. We will definitely come back!

Front porch relaxing
The house was very clean. The best part was the front porch. Sitting in the swing or chair and enjoying the sound of the creek was very relaxing. Would definitely stay again.

Great place to stay
This place had everything we needed. The decorations were perfect for this log cabin themed vacation home. The kitchen was well stocked. The beds were very comfortable. The living and dining rooms were large. They had many things we did not use like a fire pit and kayaks for the river across from the front yard. We would go back here anytime

Relaxing time on the creek
We can't thank you both enough for sharing your cabin. We had the best week relaxing and feeling right at home. The cabin has very comfortable beds, an awesome air hocky table, the perfect swing on the front porch for morning coffee and a beautiful creek to play in (even with all the recent rain, totally safe for our 2 small boys). Highly recommend this place!

Peaceful setting surrounded by Nature
House is well appointed and immaculately maintained. Hosts are lovely and easy to reach with any questions. Relaxing to sit on the front porch and watch Penn’s Creek and enjoy the show put on by the birds and eagles. We visited the wineries and did some antiquing. We will definitely be back!
