This sawmill is unlike any band mill, boasting a massive 4 and a half-foot circular saw, a relic from the years between 1935 and 1945. Its rhythmic, melodic hum fills the air, blending seamlessly with the symphony of nature. The captivating noise created an enchanting ambiance, luring those in search of solace and beauty. We run our mill with recycled cooking oil and a diesel blend.

The history of the Pump House began in 1878, when three ambitious men hatched a plan for the world's first long-distance underground oil pipeline which would transport oil from well to refinery more quickly and efficiently than the horse-drawn wagons of the time. Pumping stations were needed every fifty miles along this long route to keep pressure on the pipeline so that the oil could reach its destination. Pump House Bed and Breakfast is one of the only properties in the country in which the both the original homes of the foremen and the large brick buildings remain. Doug, owner, has spent more than 20 years lovingly restoring these foreman houses as well as the large industrial brick buildings. The Brick Barn Hall once housed steam pumps to pressurize the pipe and keep the oil moving, and the Catawissa Cabin behind it served as the telegraph office. The Studio Hall contained boilers that produced the steam to power the pumps, while the adjoining Studio Cabin functioned as a blacksmith's workspace. Today, the buildings function as reception spaces for weddings and other special events, and house private suites as well as an art studio where Doug pursues his work and teaches drawing, ceramics, and stained glass classes. The Season House, one of the two foreman homes, features additional guest accommodations while Doug resides in the other foreman house. Visit and experience a piece of PA history!

Me and my boyfriend loved this spot. Although we didn’t have a lot of time to explore as much as we wanted, we were pleasantly surprised about what we were able to see :) We also petted some really sweet kitties :,) The cabin was soooo cozy and the breeze all night made for an amazing sleep. I woke up not wanting to leave bed. We spoke with the land owner for a little, she is so sweet and welcoming. It seems like they put a lot of effort into their property to make everything perfect :) Definitely the highlight of my PA trip!!!

I felt that it was really organized and they had dotted all their eyes and crossed all their Ts. Also really appreciated the well water hookup that gave plenty of really nice flowing water in front of the cabin. And the cabin interior was very comforting and the bedding was really nice. Being a grandmother traveling with a grandchild I really appreciated being able to pull my car right up to the cabin and just get my things that I needed right out of the car as I needed them.

What a cute setup. Stayed in one of the tiny cabins, equipped with a mini fridge, tea kettle, fan, and mugs. The bed was very comfortable and I slept great! My finance and I walked along the trail that goes over the mountain along the stream. Nice scenery and dipped our feet in. The campground has 2 clean bathrooms and a shower, the water was cold but fine for a summer day and they even had soap and towels like a hotel :) we had a great time. Very refreshing.

Her warm hospitality and thoughtful gestures went above and beyond, and truly made us feel at home. A big kudos to Vanessa for making our trip extra memorable. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable and welcoming stay!

We [2 people and 2 dogs] enjoyed our little glamping getaway at the West Creek Campground, enough so that we would definitely do it here again! The Dwellings are close to one another, but far enough where you can still enjoy nature and your own personal space. Since nights were still a little chilly at the end of May (the time of writing this review), a small electric heater was provided that was enough to keep the Dwelling comfortable. The bathhouse is clean and modern, and it's exciting to see the development of future glamping options at this campground. Vanessa (camp host) was very friendly, helpful, and attentive to the guests' needs. 5/5

Weekend Trip to West Creek Campground
We had a great experience! The cabin was comfortable and thoughtfully equipped, with plenty of outlets and the flexibility to combine twin beds for couples. The bathhouse was by far the best and most modern we’ve seen at any campsite; immaculately clean with hot showers. The entire property was peaceful and beautifully maintained. Vanessa, our point of contact, was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay. While WiFi is available, we weren’t able to connect, but our phone service worked just fine.

It was extremely clean and welcoming. The accommodations were spotless. My only concern was the gaps in the doorway and the floorboards where bugs / mosquitos may be able to get in especially as it get warmer.

What a great spot! The dwellings were so cute and had everything we needed. There was a cute welcome letter with fire starter and smores for each of us. There is touch lights and an outlet. The beds were so comfy and we stayed warm. We got two bundles of wood for the fire and the bathrooms were so clean! There is WiFi but we had enough service as well which was nice to touch base with love ones when we got back from hiking all day.
We were the only ones this week but we would love to come back again. It was such a lovely place to stay and close to Ricketts glen and worlds end state park. Thank you for hosting us!!

It was a wonderful experience and just the cozy vibe I was looking for. The hiking trail next to the river was beautiful, it was a pristine and breathtaking property. The hosts were accommodating and a wonderful couple. We had plenty of privacy and they were quick to respond if we needed anything. It was all in all a really peaceful and relaxing place!

Gorgeous views, comfortable beds, heaters provided so you can control the temperature, and easy access to the restrooms and shower.
I would say skip the kayak/canoe because it’s a shallow and narrow stream without very far to go and it was kind of a fast current. The stay also wasn’t technically ready for our stay at 3 pm checkin time (fridge wasn’t on and I didn’t notice until a day later, water wasn’t turned on in the cabin and wasn’t sure it was supposed to be until I asked). I hate to feel like I have to keep bothering the host for stuff but they were super responsive and kind people.
Overall super splendid and worth it, just double check stuff and ask so that you don’t feel like a dork when you aren’t sure a day later 🤪

My wife and I stayed at the Dwellings at West Creek Campground, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience. The facilities were one of the cleanest I have ever seen throughout my entire life, and the host was very nice and flexible. The weekend we were there was very cold, so we ended up spending a lot of our time inside the shelter, but the experience was still amazing. Would definitely camp here again in the near future.
