About this house rental

Nestled in Raystown Lake, this attractive house for $617 per night is a fantastic option for your next trip. This log home was custom built with all the furnishings and decor of an upscale lodge. You may have see pictures in Cabin Life magazine, where it has been featured several times. There are four official bedrooms with two extra rooms in the basement with beds. There are also 4 full baths and 1 half bath. Large decks on the front and back of house with bench swings. Kids and adults can walk down to the lake behind the house to swim, fish and more. This house is one of the closest homes to the lake available (about 350 steps) and we are located in a wake-free zone, meaning boats need to drive very slowly behind the house. There is a large fire pit for bonfires and s'mores. The back yard is flat for bocci, volleyball or other activities. My son used to have paint ball fights with friends in the woods directly behind the house. The dining room table seats eight comfortably. There are 3 bar stools to the kitchen counter for additional seating. One of the many great features of this house is each of the three floors has separate entertaining space so people can get together in smaller groups if desired. The lower level has a family room and air hockey table and direct access to the back yard. The loft on the second floor is great for games - bumper pool, playing cards, board games or puzzles. There's something for everyone! There are 4 tvs (great room, basement family room and in two of the bedrooms) should you want them. Besides being close to the water, you are also close (10 minutes) from downtown Huntingdon - groceries, beer/wine/liquor, restaurants, gym ($5 for the day) and a Super Walmart. We are about 12 minutes from Seven Points Marina if you want to rent a boat/kayake/paddle board or use their water trampoline. We are also roughly 45 minutes from Penn State for football games and other activities as well. And if you are an adventurer, some of the best bike trails are about 10 minutes away. There are also excellent hiking trails for every skill level. I go down to Juniata College in town and play tennis and my kids have roller bladed around campus. There is definitely plenty to do! Please note property has exterior security cameras with video and sound recording.

I surprised my mother for her 80th birthday by inviting her family from out of state for a weekend getaway. The house was perfect for several families to be comfortable in their own space. It was clean, had some essentials if we forgot them, and it was super easy to feel at home but also put it back together the way we found it. We brought A LOT of food and there was plenty of room to store until we needed it. There was plenty of room to spread out but also be together. The location offered hiking trails that brought you to a beautiful waterfront. Perfect to get out in nature! Everyone thought the house was amazing so I looked like a Rockstar for arranging it all! So appreciative for owners like Jill Jones for sharing their home with families like ours so we could make special memories together!

Highly recommend! Perfectly secluded with walk to the lake, yet close to civilization and house is really spacious and nice. We were a group of 5 adults and 2 kids - 3 and 6 year olds, and a 3 year old Bernedoodle. Everything as pictured and as described. We loved how secluded it was and path to the lake was a highlight of everyone’s day! Note that if you have elderly - path to the lake could be hard for them. Jill has a guest book with many recommendations and we did go to three twelve restaurant and had a wonderful meal there. We were a small group but I can see how this house would be perfect for a lathe family reunion - it has 3 levels with big bedrooms and each level has their own bathrooms and common areas. Kitchen is huge and has anything you might need to cook a meal and more. We loved the firepit. The swings. The decks. Comfortable seating and beds. Maybe one note would be the towels - guests are suppose to wash before leaving and frankly it’s stressful to wash, dry and put away on the day you are leaving especially knowing that most places don’t have such requirement. However, most of our group brought their own towels so this was not that much of a concern. Jill let us use the floatees which was great. And left us farm fresh eggs - which was very nice and made for many perfect breakfasts. Thank you Jill!

This house was gorgeous, spacious, well stocked. The trek down to the lake is a little tough but we left our kayaks down there with no problems. At night, we had a couple of bon fires. Just a great long weekend with family and friends.

The property and the owner are both amazing. Plenty of space and room for everything and everyone.I rented this cabin for my family as a gift, and we all had an amazing time. The walk to the water will tire you out if you are not in shape, and is difficult if you are taking kayaks or gear down to the lake, but the lake is so clean and beautiful it’s worth the effort! Quiet peaceful area, but close to town if you need anything. I would definitely book again!

We just could not get over how beautiful Raystown Lake is. The fishing could have been alittle better. But that’s fishing. We had our kayacks which was great to be able to use them everyday. I would use the boat ramp at Snyders Run If you want to bring a kayack. The trial down to the lake is a bit long to carry kayaks down and back up again. Snyders Run boat ramp is only 15 mins paddle to and from the property. House was big and we had plenty of room for four teenagers and four adults. Over all great time.

This property is stunning and perfect for my family. Great location and we loved the hummingbirds! In the third floor king bed bathroom the sinks are not draining. The kids room on the third floor needs some work (no shade on the lamp).
