About Orviston

Tucked into the forested hills of northern Centre County along Beech Creek, Orviston is a tiny, peaceful village of around 60 people. The community grew around a busy brickyard in the early 1900s, but life here has since slowed down to a quiet crawl. Surrounded by state forestland, it offers an exceptionally secluded setting for anyone drawn to deep woods, mountain air, and simple rural living.
