Brook Leaf Love Nest, Hellam, Pa.

Brook Leaf Love Nest, Hellam, Pa.
The Brook Leaf Love Nest was an oversized tree house built along Kreutz Creek on a farm in Hellam Township, York County, Pennsylvania, in the 1920s. Newlyweds on their honeymoon rented the "love nest," and it was a well-known local attraction until it burned down in the late 1940s after being struck by lightning. Interestingly, The Haines Shoe House, Hellam, Pa., was another nearby destination for honeymooners.
