Escape to 62 acres of premier recreational land, perfectly situated on the Juniata River just one mile from Raystown Lake. Accessible via a public road, your entry is defined by a private gated entrance and a massive concrete bridge crossing your own freshwater stream—an impressive feature that ensures year-round accessibility and total privacy.
1/2 Mile of Riverfront: Over 2500 feet of private shoreline. Launch your boat or fish for bass, striper, and panfish right from your private shoreline.
Fantastic Hunting for Deer, Bear, Turkey, etc.
Historical Landmarks: Own a piece of the past with authentic coke ovens, foundations and railroad trestles still on-site—perfect for history buffs or creating a unique atmosphere for a retreat.
The Cabin & Outbuildings: Includes a newer 24x30 main cabin, plus several smaller cabins, a lean-to, and a secure storage box. Plenty of room for guests and all your equipment.
The property entrance is at the end of sugar camp road. The address on Zillow isn't correct.
This is a "legacy property"—the kind that stays in a family for generations.
