Escape to the heart of Pennsylvania's wilderness with this beautiful recreational property located at 226 Nelson Run Road, Austin, PA. Offering the perfect blend of comfort, privacy, and outdoor adventure, this property features a well-maintained 3-bedroom, 1-bath cabin nestled along the scenic Big Nelson Run, a stocked trout stream that flows the entire length of the property.

The cabin is equipped with electric, a private well, and septic system, making it ready for year-round enjoyment.

Best of all, the property connects to more than 27,000 acres of Pennsylvania Commonwealth public land, providing exceptional opportunities for hunting, hiking, and exploring. The area is well known for its thriving populations of whitetail deer, black bear, wild turkey, and the opportunity to frequently see Pennsylvania elk roaming nearby.
A spacious 24' x 36' detached garage provides plenty of room for vehicles, ATVs, tractors, or outdoor equipment. It includes steel tool cabinets, a dedicated storage room, and a washer and dryer area. An additional storage shed offers even more space for your gear.
The location is ideal for enjoying everything Potter County has to offer. Fish the nearby Sinnemahoning Creek, visit the historic Austin Dam, enjoy dinner at the Wharton Hotel, or take a short drive to Cherry Springs State Park, world-famous for its incredible dark skies and stargazing.
