Charming Cottage Retreat on Maiden Creek – A Nature Lover’s Paradise!

Welcome to Slater Grove, a delightful 1-bedroom, 1-bath cottage nestled along the scenic banks of Maiden Creek, a tributary of Lake Ontelaunee. This cozy getaway comfortably sleeps 6-8 guests with air mattresses, and for larger gatherings, you can set up tents in the field across the lane for even more outdoor fun!

Perfect for outdoor enthusiasts, this retreat offers fishing, hiking, biking, kayaking, swimming, and bird-watching. Enjoy the stocked lake for fishing, paddle through the peaceful waters in a kayak or rowboat, or explore the surrounding hiking trails and state gamelands. Across the creek, Willow Glen Playground provides sports facilities, playgrounds, and pavilion rentals for gatherings.

Conveniently located in Berks County, this property is just a short drive from Leesport Farmers Market, the Reading Pagoda, Crystal Cave, and Gring’s Mill Recreation Area. Plus, it's only an hour from Lancaster, Lebanon, Dauphin, Montgomery, and Chester Counties, making it an ideal weekend retreat.

This charming cottage sits in a private grove on leased land, with an annual land lease of $2,200. Prospective buyers must meet with the landowner for approval.
