About Dauphin
Dauphin is a small, scenic river town tucked along the Susquehanna at the base of Peters Mountain, roughly fifteen minutes north of Harrisburg. It is a fantastic spot for outdoor lovers, with kayaking on the water and miles of hiking trails throughout the Stony Creek Valley right down the road. You get the peace and quiet of living near the mountains, along with a quick, straightforward commute into the city. Families here are part of the Central Dauphin School District.
