The village of Muddy Creek Forks is located in the southern portion of York County, at the tri-corner meeting of Lower Chanceford, Fawn, and East Hopewell Townships. The only two roads passing through Muddy Creek Forks are Muddy Creeks Forks Road and New Park Road.

The buildings and structures located in the village of Muddy Creek Forks were constructed from 1800 - 1935.

Muddy Creek Forks contains twelve buildings, five structures and one site. The twelve buildings include, the General Store, two Pennsylvania Vernacular houses, a stone house, a Victorian Gothic house, a log house, a creamery (now a residence), a mill, a grain elevator, a warehouse, and a Sweitzer barn.

Today, with the exception of a few resident homes, the group off buildings which form the village of Muddy Creek Forks, stand all but vacant.
