Settled along the Pennsylvania-West Virginia border and Monongahela River on the southern end of Fayette County, Springhill Township is a countryside community in the open, rolling hills of Appalachia. Spanning over 34 square miles, the township has a population of just 1,500 people, offering its residents a quiet, laid-back lifestyle far away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Springhill Township homes come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Along its winding, forested roads, you'll find a large mix of older homes from cottages and bungalows to ranch dwellings and newer Craftsman-style builds. Smaller homes built in the 1940s often sell between $100,000 and $150,000 while newer properties containing three to four bedrooms can top out around $350,000. The housing market is slower than more populated areas, with some homes taking up to three months to sell.

To spend time outdoors, township residents often travel 6 miles south for a day at Cheat Lake Park. Stationed just beyond the Pennsylvania-West Virginia border, the park offers a 4.5-mile hiking and biking trail, along with a swimming beach and playground. Containing a wide array of fish from largemouth and smallmouth bass to catfish and crappies, Cheat Lake is also a popular gathering spot for local fishermen.
When the spooky season arrives, Springhill Township comes alive. Around Halloween, residents come in droves to visit Rich Farms' seasonal Fright Farm for a night of fun — and horror. One of the top haunted attractions in Pennsylvania, Fright Farm features a Hayride of No Return and a Frightmare Mansion, where guests are greeted by ghouls, goblins and everything in between.
