Welcome to the gorgeous mountains of northern Pennsylvania! A place where you can relax and rejuvenate as you immerse yourself in the natural splendor! It’s Spring time!

Our dream of living in the mountains of northern Pennsylvania became a reality in the summer
of 2004. After purchasing several acres in southern Tioga county, we moved our existing wholesale furniture business to our current location in Liberty, PA. Due to the fluctuations in the furniture market, the decision was made to branch out into a sideline retail venture. We began offering post and beam storage sheds with board and batten siding built on our customers' sites. Because of numerous customer requests, we soon added more styles and options of storage sheds and gazebos to our product line.
Thanks to the help of a realtor friend, we began building log-sided cabins on wooded parcels that
were listed on the real estate market. We were surprised at the high demand for these small hunting and vacation cabins. What began as a sideline venture, quickly grew into our main business focus.
At Black Creek, it is our goal to provide top-notch quality products as well as customer service
that will exceed your expectations! We realize that there is more involved to buying a shed or cabin than going to the store and putting it in your bag, and we’re committed to helping you through each step of the design, construction, and final completion of your purchase.
Over the years, we have enjoyed valuable friendships
with our customers, many of whom have kindly allowed

Black Creek sheds and gazebos are fully assembled and delivered to your site with our truck and specially
designed shed trailer. To ensure that you get the longest life possible out of your shed, it is important to prepare a suitable shed pad. We recommend 4-6 inches of clean gravel, so the area under and around the shed has proper drainage. The pad should be approximately 2 feet longer and wider than the shed, and should be hand raked so the whole area is flat and level. Use a straight 2x4 with a level taped to it or a laser level to assist in making a level pad. If your shed site is located on a grade, you may want to add a retainer wall as shown in this photo. Remember, the more time and effort you put into the site preparation, the happier you will be with the results. Ask us for references for a landscaper in your area if you are uncomfortable with tackling the job yourself.
Be sure to trim low hanging branches if
they are in the path of the shed delivery and check for low hanging power or phone lines. Most sheds require 12–14 feet of clearance. Position your shed pad so we will be able to access the location with our truck and trailer. The delivery charge includes delivery to your location, as well as a half hour unloading time. If your shed needs to be unloaded in
a difficult location, or takes longer than the
