Secluded Outdoor Getaway on Bear Mountain – Forksville

Bear Mountain Estates presents a distinctive and private 120-acre haven, offering tranquil trails for strolls and mountain biking, three serene private ponds, a charming rustic annex, and an enchanting treehouse – all encompassed within the property. The expansive space allows for backcountry camping experiences as well.

Situated a mere 6.3 miles away lies the sprawling 780-acre expanse of Loyalsock State Forest and the captivating World’s End State Park, home to the renowned 59.21-mile Loyalsock Trail (LT). For even more adventure, journey 36 miles to the sprawling 13,050-acre Ricketts Glen State Park.

The Space

Embark on a 3-mile excursion off Route 154, guided by a well-maintained dirt township road, leading you to your personal mountain sanctuary spanning 120 acres. You’ll have the choice to reside in the newly renovated home or opt for a more rustic experience by pitching tents anywhere on the property, immersing yourself in the raw beauty of nature. Numerous fire pits await, including a convenient propane pit on the front deck, providing a cozy ambiance without straying too far from comfort. The property caters to all, including your furry companions. Expect visits from a variety of Pennsylvania wildlife such as deer, turkey, and even the occasional bear. As night falls, the distant calls of coyotes may serenade your senses. Don’t miss the opportunity to fish – the ponds are teeming with catfish for catch-and-release enthusiasts.

Ample parking is readily available, enveloped by an absence of neighboring structures and offering a tranquil darkness come nightfall, with the exception of the occasional luminance of a full moon.

We took a family trip for my mothers 70th birthday, everybody enjoyed the house and property from ages 2 to 70. Well stocked with firewood that we enjoyed sitting around making s’mores and hot dog. Great views and beautiful night skies, even got a chance to watch a meteor shower! The kitchen was well stocked and we even left some things behind for the next guests. Four of us enjoyed driving to the near by worlds end state park and get some family hiking in, we will definitely be going back again, likely next fall for another fun filled family getaway.

This beautiful setting exceeds expectations - BJ thinks of everything - even firewood and sticks for toasting marshmallows! The kitchen is terrific. An enormous stove top and two full size refrigerators with freezers. Plenty of space for gathering with loved ones inside and out. We have visited three times and always feel so welcomed and looked after. BJ is a wonderful host!!

My friends and I have visited BJs house for the past two years and we absolutely love it. It is very peaceful and private which makes it a great place to spend quality time together and reconnect. The house and property are beautiful and peaceful, I couldn’t have asked for a better place to bring my friends for a week.
