About Castanea

Sitting right across Bald Eagle Creek from Lock Haven, Castanea is a quiet, green community backed by the slopes of Bald Eagle Mountain. It is primarily a peaceful residential area where neighbors enjoy calm streets and mountain views, all while staying just a couple of minutes from the shops, restaurants, and services in Lock Haven.

Outdoor recreation is right at your doorstep, with the town's historic 1883 train station serving as a major trailhead for the Bald Eagle Valley Trail. It is a favorite local spot for walking dogs, jogging, or biking along the scenic valley corridor. With creek access, nearby hiking, and a relaxed neighborhood pace, Castanea offers quiet everyday living with city conveniences just across the bridge.
