Located on Front Street by the Lake in Boiling Springs is this circa
1869 Victorian Home, which is one of the first homes in Boiling
Springs.
The village is laced with history dating back to the 1700's. The
iron industry was the main reason for its growth. The Carlisle Iron
Works, one of the earliest blast furnaces in Pennsylvania was
located near the springs. The remains of the original blast furnace
still stands in the public park. The village has many handsome
homes, some fronting on the lake. In 1984, Boiling Springs was
placed on the National Register of Historic Places. The area is
alive with activities. The lake and the crystal clear Yellow
Breeches creek are well stocked and are considered some of the best
trout fishing areas in the country. The nearby Yellow Breeches Fly
Shop handles fishing gear, locally tied flys, clothing and gifts as
well as dispensing experienced tips for the novice or practiced
fisherman. The famous Allenberry Resort and Playhouse"on the Yellow
Breeches" is just minutes away for an evening of fine dining and
entertainment. Boiling Springs is located within one-half hour's
drive to Gettysburg, one hour's drive to Hershey, and approximately
11/2 hours from the Pennsylvania Dutch Country in Lancaster County.
It is truly a beautiful spot for a pleasant visit. The ducks are
famous for nesting in local yards and marching their hatch to the
lake in the Spring. Caution "Duck Crossing" signs are posted
throughout the village. Visit us and enjoy the quiet historic
village by the lake.
