About Bear Creek Village

Tucked into the woods of Luzerne County, Bear Creek Village is a peaceful, scenic borough with a lot of character. Originally developed around the region's 19th-century lumber and ice industries, it evolved from a popular summer retreat into a quiet year-round community. The historic cottages, stone dam, and surrounding lake give the area a timeless, storybook charm. It offers a relaxed, nature-oriented lifestyle with plenty of privacy, all while keeping you within an easy drive of nearby Wilkes-Barre.
