Weekend stay for recreational activities at Raystown Lake. This is our second time staying at this location and it was perfect for our needs.

This was a great quiet spot for the family to enjoy themselves in between our other planned activities in the Raystown Lake area. This house has a lot of things to do in it, games ect.

We enjoyed our stay for the weekend. Property was clean, spacious, and had amenities provided. We rented the Aitch pavilion for a larger gathering on Saturday and the property was the perfect location for getting there quickly. Would recommend!

We had a wonderful time so close to the boat launch and not far from trails for hiking. The house was clean and well kept. Plenty of common space upstairs and downstairs to hang out in. We had fun playing pool on the pool table downstairs. Great stargazing from the backyard.

This house was perfect for our group of 10. There is plenty of sleeping space. The basement bedrooms do not have access to a bathroom on that floor, but it didn't pose a problem for our group, they came upstairs to use the other two (but take note if there are elderly people who cannot do that). Having sheets and bath towels provided was a big help. We enjoyed the outside area as well, but spent a big portion of our time boating (Seven Points Marina right down the road). Front porch was perfect!

I can’t say enough good things about this house! It’s so cute and affordable. It’s was clean and spacious. The owners put thought into everything and exceeded our expectations- so many nice touches for guests. The location is close enough to either of the main marinas.
The business/garage located in front of the house bothered us none. It’s far enough from the house that we didn’t hear any noise or have any issues with it. You can still sit on the front or side porch and enjoy the outside. The back yard and fire pit were perfect and we spent so much time there. The big picnic table was perfect for our large group. So happy we found this gem!

Close to the lake and fairly close to Walmart and Sheetz. Plenty of room for the kids inside and out.

It was very tricky for us to find the location of the lot but as soon as we did we fell in love with it!!! It's much bigger than the pictures show!

We utilized the house for a place to crash after coming off the lake 3 days and couldn’t have asked for better accommodations

Very clean rental! Had a great time with our adult children, and mother in law! Quick drive to the lake to enjoy the beach, or boating! If you have trouble with steps?, this house is not for you.

Spacious house with ample sleeping quarters and parking. Very close to either side of Lake Raystown. It’s rustic for sure, but that’s what “sort of camping” is all about.

We used the property to stay overnight for 2 nights while boating on the lake. The house was comfy, close to the water and accommodated all of us.
There is an auto repair shop as others mentioned but plenty of great other views we watched a group of 3 young fox wrestle and play in the wood line each morning. Kids loved it, we loved it and will def stay again

It was okay
TV didn't work ended up being batteries but still had issues with getting it synced up. One of the people from the garage helped to square it away, I think things like this should be checked before people check in. There were 3 remotes and initially the only thing we could do was to get the tv to turn on but that was it.
The basement was damp and cold and it took a while for the heat to get going

We rented this house to have friends come together and play some board game together. It was the perfect location for this and the house was great.

This is a lovely place with very adequate space to accommodate a large group. The rooms are clean and tastefully arranged and decorated. The bedrooms are spacious and the beds comfortable. The outside space with a fire pit worked great for our group of 10 adults.
Animals are allowed so that is a great benefit!
It does have a lot of stairs or steps so keep that in mind.
There is a coffee maker and cooking necessities but bring your own coffee and something to make ice in etc.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and recommend it to anyone who is looking to get away for the weekend or a few days with family or friends!

The Guest House was the perfect house for our families vacation! Having the boat launch so close was super convenient. Plenty of space inside and out. We were able to park two boats on property.

The property’s kitchen had all of the necessary appliances with a few pleasant surprises however, the seasonings were very limited. The bedrooms were accommodating but it was a rainy week and the downstairs became very damp. The sheets felt wet because of this. Both bathrooms had stand-up showers; no tub for the little ones. The property location is almost midway between Seven Points and Raystown Resort which made for easy daily travel. It is also about 15-20 minutes to the nearest large food store. The ample covered porch, with a porch swing, was great for early morning quiet times, watching the rain storms, and giving the little ones a place to play. The ability to close off the porch stairs and access to the yard would have made it even better. The view is obstructed by the car repair shop but the area was still relatively quiet. We had a great stay and Christy was very responsive!
