PART III. NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-K, 11-K, 10-Q,
N-SAR or the transition report portion thereof could not be filed
within the prescribed time period. (Attach extra sheets if needed.)
Buck Hill Falls Company (the "Company") provides recreational and other
services to the community of Buck Hill Falls, located in the Pocono
Mountains of Northeastern Pennsylvania. This region was hit hard by the
"Blizzard of 96" and the floods that followed, which disrupted normal
business communications and travel for a large portion of January.
Governor Ridge declared a state-wide disaster emergency during the
blizzard and has sought a federal disaster declaration for the entire
state in the wake of the unprecedented flooding that followed. The
Company is a small company. All of its directors and all but one of its
executive officers are unpaid volunteers and, for the most part, are
absent from the community during periods of inclement winter weather.
Under the circumstances it is necessary for the Company to delay the
filing of its Form 10-K in order to give its directors and executive
officers a fair opportunity to review and respond to it.
PART IV. OTHER INFORMATION
(1) Name and telephone number of persons to contact in regard to this
notification: William J. Morehouse (215) 977-2190

(2) Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment
Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter
period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed?
If the answer is no, identify report(s).
[X] Yes[ ] No
(3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of
operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be

or portion thereof?
[X] Yes[ ] No

<PAGE>
If so: attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both
narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why
a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.
The Company expects to report a net loss of $88,740 for the
fiscal year ended October 31, 1995 as compared to net income of $54,680
for the preceding fiscal year, attributable primarily to increased general
and administrative costs and interest expense.
