About this property

Gig's Place - Raystown Lake

Gigi’s Place | A Designer Cottage in the Woods

Hidden among the trees just minutes from Raystown Lake, Gigi’s Place is where high-end design meets peaceful nature. This is not just a place to stay. It is a place to exhale.

Every inch of this home has been thoughtfully styled with luxury finishes, beautiful décor, and soft, welcoming textures that make it feel more like a private boutique retreat than a rental. The moment you step inside, soaring vaulted ceilings and forest-facing windows fill the home with natural light, creating a calm, airy atmosphere that feels both elegant and cozy.

The main living space flows effortlessly into a fully equipped kitchen with generous counter space, perfect for gathering over morning coffee or preparing a family-style dinner. Just beyond, a formal dining room adds a touch of refinement for evenings that deserve a little extra polish.

The main-floor primary suite is a sanctuary of its own, featuring vaulted ceilings, a spacious layout, and a private en-suite bathroom with double sinks. Upstairs, two charming bedrooms and a full bath offer quiet, comfortable spaces for guests to unwind.

The lower level expands your living space with newly finished interiors, a kitchenette, a cozy sitting area, sleeping accommodations for two, and a beautifully appointed full bathroom. It is perfect for extended family, teens, or anyone who appreciates a little extra privacy.

Outside, the wooded surroundings bring peace and privacy, while boat parking and quick access to the Shy Beaver Boat Launch make it easy to head straight for the water.

Gigi’s Place offers something rare.
The elegance of a designer home.
The comfort of a cozy cottage.
And the serenity of the forest.

Beautiful house and very comfortable accommodations! FYI location of bathrooms was a little odd. I would ask about them before booking.

S’mores at night

Upscale decor and well stocked. Quite and peaceful location but the road was rough. Great bedroom arrangements with 1 king master en-suite, 1 queen room,1 bunk room and second bathroom plus a separate small complete unit downstairs w/pull-out couch, kitchenette and full bath. A second TV and towel racks would be nice additions
