Niman House is a fishermans paradise, river front on the beautiful Juniata River

Breathtaking views of the Juniata River from inside the home or from the two exterior decks. Amazing bird watching opportunities with lots of waterfowl and resident eagles. Our getaway is located along a popular walking/biking road that dead ends at a historic Canal House but continues with a walking path along the Juniata River. This cozy retreat is situated 2 miles from the Arch Rock Road exit off Route 322. Within 1 mile to either the Midway Drive In Theater and flea market or the PA Fish Commission’s MIfflintown boat launch. Located 4 miles to MIfflintown which hosts many dining opportunities, pubs, retail stores and groceries. It’s a mere 7 miles to Lost Creek Golf Course and 8 miles to Port Royal Speedway. For the die hard Nittany Lions fans it’s 42 mile drive to Penn States Beaver Stadium. We have kayaks, rafts, floats and fishing equipment rentals available. (PM for details)

We were here for family business but thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house had all the items you would need to feel at home! There was definitely a tremendous amount of thought and care put into it. We have added this to our places to stay whenever we head up for a PSU game! Highly recommend!

This home was lovely, very relaxing and quiet. It was everything we were looking for on our small get away. Very clean home with comfy beds. The house was equipped with everything one may need. We loved making smores at the fire pit and feeding the ducks at the pond. The host was great, and communication was on point. Very much recommend this home away from home :-)
