Taylors Woods. Conveying mineral rights and 190 acres in Howard, Pennsylvania, situated within five minutes of Pennsylvania State Game Lands 92 and the Sproul State Forest boundary — with Bald Eagle State Park less than ten minutes away. Together these public lands and recreational resources place Taylors Woods at the center of one of the most accessible outdoor corridors in Central Pennsylvania. Bald Eagle State Park's reservoir offers bass, pike, and muskie fishing, while Bald Eagle Creek — a Class B trout stream — feeds directly into it. State Game Lands 92 and Sproul State Forest provide thousands of acres of huntable public ground within a short drive of the cabin. The forest at Taylors Woods has been evaluated by Calvin Norman, CCF, TSP, Audubon Certified Forester with Blue Ox Nursery & Forestry. The property contains four distinct habitat types. The upper ridge is dominated by chestnut oak, white oak, and hickory — recently opened by harvest, now developing early-successional browse and native understory including blueberry, wild rose, and teaberry. The lower slope transitions into a red maple stand dense enough to support a small-scale maple syrup operation. Two hemlock stands — one on the north end and one in the southern section — provide thermal bedding cover that concentrates deer on the property through winter. Vernal streams run through the land toward the adjacent Little Marsh Creek corridor, creating a wildlife travel funnel that draws deer, turkey, and other game onto the property to bed and feed. Multiple log landings are distributed throughout the 190 acres — cleared, ATV-accessible openings that are natural food plot development sites requiring minimal investment. Existing tree stands are in place. A formal deer management program can be established through landowner tags or enrollment in Pennsylvania's Deer Management Assistance Program. Forest management practices including water bar installation, native seeding, and regeneration protection are eligible for cost-share funding through NRCS EQIP/CSP — the PA Woodland Resilience Enhancement Network can fund up to $25,000 in qualifying improvements. A named trail network runs throughout the property, accessible by ATV or foot, connecting the upper ridge to the lower slope stands and reaching every major habitat feature on the 190 acres. The 1,800 square foot cabin is renovated and move-in ready. Vaulted wood ceilings, skylights, stone fireplace, granite countertops, main-floor bedroom, full bath, half bath, and loft. Metal roof, 200+ amp service, well, septic, propane, wood stove, and ductless mini-split. Appliances and washer/dryer included. Outdoor fire pit, storage shed, and room to add a garage, pole barn, or additional structure. Minutes from I-80. Approximately 30 minutes to State College and Penn State. Reachable from Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, New York, New Jersey, Baltimore, and Washington in a day's drive.
