About this property

Secluded/Spacious Cabin with 5 BR, 5 min to resort "New Kitchen coming 2026!!"

Quiet cabin located on a private mountain road. Very spacious with 3 floors and 5 bedrooms with a lot to do. Bring the whole family, we can sleep up to 10 people.
We are close to Lake Raystown Resort, Trough Creek State Park, Allegrippas Bike Trail, Juniata College, Penn State University, Lincoln Caverns and 1,000 Steps. Close to various boat launches and there is space to pull in and park a boat or two with a large wrap around driveway. There is a large wrap around deck with patio furniture for lots of seating. Enjoy the firepit area, with lots of room to sit and roast marshmallows or hot dogs! For the security of our guests and the safety of our home, we have an external security camera located on the end of the garage wall closest to the driveway.

Please be cautious when using water, with being on the mountain our well capacity is not as high as most, but we do have a 3000 gallon additional storage on top of what our well produces. We have yet to have any issues thanks to our additional water storage and guests who have worked with us on this issue!
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Great house for a group of friends to gather for a weekend. The wrap around porch looking out on the woods was amazing! The host was very easy to communicate with. The only feedback I would have is that the toilet bathroom door downstairs could use a softer landing as it slams into the wall when returning open (which is very loud when people use the bathroom in the middle of the night). And some of the lamps didn’t work. But those were so minor compared to everything else this house offers! Would definitely stay here again.

The cabin is beautiful. The owners really did a nice job on the decor, we certainly felt at home. They also gave so many extra amenities that modt places dont offer. Also working with Carolynne so easy, she always responded promptly to my emails.

Family vacation at Raystown Lake

This is a wonderful place to have a family get together. Location is near the lake, near the marina, and near hiking trails. There are games, cornhole and a fire pit at the property, not to mention humming birds!

Great place for a family reunion

This was a perfect place for a family gathering. We had plenty of space to spread out; beds for everyone; big enough kitchen to have prep area and visiting area; great fire pit for late night talks; close enough to the lake for recreation. Host was attentive and provided all we needed for a comfortable stay.

Fabulous family vacation at this lovely mountain getaway.

We had a wonderful time at this beautiful rental home. It was very close to Raystown lake where we had a great time boating and swimming each day. Everything was clean and well maintained and the owners were very helpful and hospitable. We had a five star experience and would recommend it to large or small family groups.

Perfect, Spacious, Comfortable and Private Family vacation

Our family for 5 (including 3 kids under the age of 4) had a wonderful long weekend in this beautiful, private, and very spacious home on the mountainside! The home was very clean with great amenities and everything we needed for adults and toddlers alike! Carolynne was super easy to communicate with and the home was so well prepared with easy and simple check in and check out procedures! I highly recommend a stay at her place for anyone looking to get away with their family of any size!!

A cabin with everything

The cabin was very spacious there was plenty of room. It was clean and everything we needed was avaliable. The host was easy to communicate with and responded in a meter of minutes. It was just an all around great place. Will definitely stay there again. If you are looking for some peace and quiet or just a place to relax and with a view by far this is the place to go.

We’d definitely do this again!!

This was definitely one of our favorite family getaways! It’s a great, quiet location- yet close to lots of water-fun stuff. Our host was generous, communicated promptly, and overall we are very satisfied! Our children were a bit disappointed that there was no spike ball here, but had lots of fun playing pool. 😊

Family Vacation

We wanted to vacation with our 4 grown kids and their significant others at Raystown Lake. I came upon this property during my search and very glad I did. It was in a beautiful mostly private setting with plenty of room for all; campfires, game night, meals, sleeping arrangements, watching the videos we took and more!! This is a comfy, cozy fully stocked vacation house!! Couldn’t ask for more!!
