Description
Tucked into the hardwood ridges above the Juniata River, this 10± acre recreational tract offers a ready-to-use hunting cabin in Juniata County, just 6.6 miles from Pennsylvania State Game Lands 107 for buyers who want additional public hunting ground within easy reach of camp.
The property sits along US Route 22 near Macedonia in Juniata County, within the Tuscarora Forest landowners community, and carries a Mifflintown, PA mailing address. The terrain climbs steadily off the highway, rising from around 480 feet near the road to over 620 feet at the back of the tract, a swing of roughly 140 feet that creates natural funnels, ridge lines, and staging areas typical of the ridge-and-valley hardwoods this part of central Pennsylvania is known for. The ground is fully wooded, offering good cover, natural browse, and the kind of terrain whitetail and turkey hunters look for when reading a property for stand and blind placement.
The cabin is a 4-bedroom, 1-bath structure of approximately 1,138± square feet, set up as a functional weekend or hunting camp rather than a polished primary residence. The current owner has put recent work into the property, including a remodeled bathroom, new flooring in the kitchen and dining area, a replaced deep-water well pump, updated cabinets, and general maintenance and repair throughout. The home is served by a private well, septic system, and electric service, so a buyer can move in and use the property without needing to bring in utilities. Interior living space includes a living room centered around a wood stove, an eat-in kitchen and dining area, multiple bedrooms including a bunk room for extra sleeping capacity, and a rear deck overlooking the wooded backyard with a stone fire pit, a setup built for gathering after a hunt or spending a weekend outdoors. An unfinished bonus room and additional storage space give a buyer room to expand or simply store gear and equipment.
Recreational appeal is a strong part of this property's value. While Pennsylvania State Game Lands 107 does not border the tract itself, it lies just 6.6 miles away, giving a buyer a private cabin base with easy access to substantial additional public hunting ground nearby. That combination, a private, utility-equipped cabin on a manageable acreage close to public land, is well suited to hunters who want a comfortable camp within a short drive of more hunting territory. With ATV trails on the property and the Juniata River nearby, this property offers a little bit of everything.
Access is via a private road maintained by the Tuscarora Forest Landowners Road Co-op, an active association of neighboring landowners that funds ongoing grading, brushing, and material work on the roughly three miles of road serving the community. The co-op holds annual meetings, elects road leadership, and has made recent, documented improvements to the road surface, giving a buyer confidence that access into the property is actively maintained rather than left to individual landowners.
Location works in the buyer's favor as well. The property sits along US Route 22, with quick access to Mifflintown just 4.9 miles away, Lewistown 13.5 miles to the west, Port Royal 10.1 miles to the east, and Harrisburg reachable in about 50 miles for buyers coming from central or southeastern Pennsylvania. For a hunter, weekend camp owner, or investor looking for a recreational tract with immediate usability, a maintained access road, and public land within a short drive, this property checks the boxes that matter most.
