About Pillow

Tucked against the base of Mahantango Mountain in northern Dauphin County, Pillow is a quiet rural borough bordered on three sides by scenic Mahantango Creek. Home to fewer than 300 residents, the community offers a calm, easygoing pace of life surrounded by rolling farmland and mountain views. While it has roots dating back to the early 1800s, today it is a peaceful, tight-knit pocket where people can enjoy rural living, open space, and a true small-town feel.
