About this house rental

Nestled in Raystown Lake, this charming house for $235 per night is a great option for your next trip. This beautiful, quiet property is adjacent to the Raystown Lake Federal Lands* and in between the Marina and Resort areas. We constantly try to improve the property, and in 2018 we extended the all-seasons room to the deck, making a large outdoor deck area! We added a fire pit and a new, larger, hot tub! Stroll down a private (no homes front the land), quiet country lane to a quiet entrance to the lake. You can hear the birds singing and the fish leaping out of the water! This is a great place for kayaking, fishing, or playing in the water. (We can rent up to 4 kayaks upon request, in cooperation with another owner, so we must charge an additional fee. You must transport to the water.) The lakeside is also a perfect place for a private picnic or to gaze at the midnight moon! Want a bit more privacy for sleeping, or an outdoor kitchen? We have a 2022 NuCamp Tag-XL 6 wide for an additional $100/night (It generally rents for $140/night on Outdoorsey.). We will place it in the front lawn so it is easily accessible from the front door and ready to go. It has an outdoor kitchen and queen bed with a stargazer window and smart tv on the inside. (See pictures.). This requires a separate payment, as I can't add it as an amenity on VRBO, sorry. Pets are not permitted in the unit. This is subject to availability as it is listed on other sites. Just one mile down the road is the Aitch boat launch and fishing pier. A wonderful view of the tree-covered mountains surrounds you. Public guided boat tours are available at the Marina and Resort areas. You will truly enjoy the smart HD TV in the living room, the regulation-sized (7') AMF pool table, and the 6-person hot tub. The master bedroom on the main floor has a queen bed and a large master bath w/ oversized Jacuzzi (non-jetted) tub, separate shower, walk-in closet, and Kohler fixtures. This master bedroom has a sliding glass door onto the deck with a beautiful view of the federal lands and the neighbor's pond where you can frequently find a blue heron looking for fish. (We do not have a direct view of the lake, very few lake properties do, which keeps the lake experience from the water pristine - no private docks are permitted on the federal land surrounding the lake.) The main floor has a dining room & living room w/ gas fireplace. The modern kitchen has every convenience you need including an island w/ a Jenn-Air grill & gas range unit, a side-by-side refrigerator, built-in microwave, built-in oven, dishwasher, & garbage disposal. We also supply a drip coffee maker, rice cooker, crock-pot, and other kitchen small appliances. The laundry room and a half bath are also on the main floor. Grocery delivery is offered locally by instacart: https://www.instacart.com/grocery-delivery/pa/near-me-in-huntingdon-pa. (Zip is 16657.) The second-floor loft contains two queen size beds and overlooks the kitchen and pool table room. There is a separate floor AC unit, ceiling fan, and floor fan in the loft to keep the air circulating. It has a full-size bathroom with a large standup shower. There is a screened-in 3 seasons room w/ glass sliding-door entrances from the kitchen, the pool table room, and the master bedroom. It is absolutely lovely out there, and you have a nice view of the pond, which frequently boasts of bird activity. You will hear the birds singing all day, and you will frequently be able to watch the barn swallows careen just above the grass while they feed. This home has a heat pump, central air, ceiling fans, skylights & nice attached 26’ x 26' garage. Please note that the pipeline that was installed recently that runs under the lake also went through our property and severely damaged our landscaping, and the emerald ash borer damaged our trees. We are working to replace all, but it will take a few years as I will NOT use herbicides on the property for your safety! Our rental agreement can be downloaded from this listing. It is your responsibility to sign and return the agreement. If you fail to do this, you nonetheless IRREVOCABLY AGREE TO ALL OF THE TERMS OF THE AGREEMENT BY PAYING THE RENTAL FEE. Keywords: Home

Just needed a few days to myself and this was perfect. Gorgeous, quiet setting that was perfect to just unwind from a crazy few weeks. House was clean. Outdoor space was perfect. Would absolutely stay again!

Loved this home. We rented it to spend the weekend with our daughter who is attending college nearby. Unfortunately, the weather was not very cooperative as it was a cool, rainy, and windy October weekend. But the home had everything we needed and was both cozy and roomy. Beds were comfortable, and it was a nice surprise that our stay also included linens and towels. We had many fun rounds of pool, board games, and movies. We even baked cookies in the kitchen, used the blacktop grill, and roasted marshmallows over the fire pit. Despite the dreary weather, we still got to use the hot tub on the covered porch. Thank you so much, and we look forward to visiting again soon.

Great place to stay! We noticed some minor things needing done ( ex: lightbulbs burnt out needing changed, empty gas tank on fire pit), but we contacted the owner and they responded immediately, even offered to come over if needed.

The property is just as described except for the screened in porch. But you can tell they are working on it and we just put some citronella candles up which worked perfectly! The boys loved the pool table and the large loft area . They didn’t even fight! The hot tub was so nice and we are looking forward to our return trip in October. The host was extremely quick with responses to our questions and the fishing was exceptionally good at the spillway. Returning in the fall and looking forward to it!
