Very disappointed in this property and cannot recommend it. The rugs were disgusting, as were cupboards and baseboards & frames on walls. There were fake flowers and bric-a-brac/tchotchkes everywhere layers deep in dust. In the kitchen, there was not a single cupboard for food storage; every single one was filled with stuff, much of which was literal junk. There were no measuring cups or spoons, no scissors except one rusted pair of meat shears, and a broken can opener. We thought maybe the pie safe was for our food storage, but no - it was filthy and unusable. Lights over stove don’t work. In the MBR, every single dresser drawer was filled with sheets so there was no where to store our clothes. There is not a window blind in the house and mostly sheer curtains, so we had no shot at getting small kids to sleep past sunrise PLUS the spotlight on the garage shone in the front bedroom windows all night. Stinkbugs were our constant companions. Gnawed mouse bait was left behind the couch where dogs or children could get to it; thank heavens we found it. There was no rug inside the door which was not great when it rained. Owners specify no shoes in the house although the floors were far from clean. Also, there is not a single a closet door in the house, so there’s no place to store anything where small kids or dogs cannot get into it. In fact, there are no door FRAMES in the MBa or around the closet, and not enough lights in any BRs.

The good: -Beautiful location at the top of a mountain while being really close to a cute, historic town. -Million dollar views from the deck and the hot tub The not so good: -Grest open concept kitchen and living area

The pictures definitely did not accurately depict the property. The place was filthy. Dust coated everything, dead bugs and thick dust under and on the furniture. I have severe allergies, so this was extremely problematic. I was miserable all weekend. Any dishes used had to be scrubbed before using, there was tons of crumbs and whole French fries in the oven drawer and all of the lower cabinets had tons of crumbs and dirt. No suitable cleaning products in the home. I realize everyone doesn’t have the same standards of clean, but this was downright disgusting. Tons of holes in the walls, which made us uncomfortable, we had to stick toilet paper in them, because you just never know. Definitely would not return.

It has become a bit of a family tradition to spend a few days away from home after Christmas each year. Raystown was the destination of choice this year, and this house checked the boxes we were looking for. The location is perfect. Out of the way, but a quick drive up to Huntingdon, or down to the main marina and recreation area at Raystown. The property is huge, probably an acre or more, and set back a good fifty yards from the road. Perfect for walking/exercising your dog if you bring them. The house has a nice open floorplan kitchen/dining/living room, with three spacious bedrooms in the back. Our girls loved the bunk beds in the kid’s room, and we were very happy in the master bedroom. Again, lots of room throughout the house if you’re bringing a dog with you; we set up our crate in the dining area. With the amount of space, you could easily have two families, or a multi-generational family staying here, with the only drawback being that there is only one full bathroom (and a half bath in the master bedroom). It could also be good if you have friends/family camping near Raystown but are looking for a bit more of a solid place to call home base. Honestly, this house reminded me of what I used to love about VRBO. You can tell this is a family sharing their vacation spot rather than some faceless real estate investor trying to make bank. And no unreasonable fees or unrealistic house chores. Thanks for a great stay!

Had a wonderful time on a weekend stay. The porch/fire pit area had a great vibe, and our teens loved it and the yard. Suggestion - put a lock on the bathroom door and/or bedroom doors would be helpful. Host was very responsive. We would return. :-)

Loved staying in this home. Only 10 minutes from seven points Marina. Snyders run and James creek are within 20! The hot tub was so nice on the cool October nights and the fire pit area was such a nice surprise! (You should have a photo of that on the listing. Super cute!) Also very private with no neighbors in site. Home was nicely decorated and the kitchen was fully stocked with any houseware you may need for your stay. Would definitely stay again.

This is a really nice location with easy access to Seven Points Recreation Area for picnics, walking trails, disc golf, swimming, boating, and hiking/biking the Allegrippis trails, and it's also just a short drive to Huntington, Lincoln Caverns, and the H&BT Rail Trail. The property is really nice, with a big yard and great views of the valleys and sunsets. We loved the hot tub and grill, and spent the evenings stargazing off the back deck. Michael is very responsive and answers questions right away. We thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend getaway.

The property actually went beyond our expectations! Lovely home. Very comfortable. Well stocked. Included their hot tub, fire ring, tiki torches, rope swing that my grandson loved and a great area for the grand dog to run. We had one of our best family trips and this property was part of making it so fun! Thank you very much. We hope to come back soon!!

Beautiful location

Our stay was perfect. The dogs loved the wide open yard and just running off their leashes. The property has a trampoline which happened to be my 2, 5, and 6 year Olds FAVORITE part of the their stay at this home. The location is absolutely beautiful! The location is great not far from most stuff but also secluded enough to where you have no immediate neighbors and don't have to worry about bothering anyone else. Theres a hot tub that is available for your use and its wonderful. Nothing like a night in the mountains sitting in the hot tub looking out. Michael was very easy to communicate with and very helpful with information about the property and helpful hints about the community! We will definitely be booking again in the future.

Our family of five stayed here for a long weekend in early April. The hot tub and trampoline were big hits with our kids. The location in relation to Seven Points marina and the mountain bike trails was very convenient. It is easy to find and has ample parking. Future guests should be made aware that this property is undergoing renovations. The dishwasher is not hooked up (and there is no dish rack or dishtowel provided), there is no laundry on-site (the entire basement is off-limits) and there is no bathroom door in the ensuite bathroom. There were also unfinished moldings, cosmetic work and thermostat covers missing. The bedding and linens were very bare bones. Just a fleece blanket and a sheet. One pillow per person. There was no toaster or spatula in the kitchen. The deck was in poor condition with raised nails and splintered wood. In addition to what was missing, the house had some unfortunate guests: mice, stinkbugs and ladybugs. The owner warned and informed us about the bugs (most were already dead). The mice however were so problematic that we had to keep all our dry goods in our cooler. There were mouse droppings on the counter each morning and my daughter saw a mouse run across the kitchen floor. Most of the above could have been overlooked if the price reflected a more budget-friendly option, but given what we paid, we really expected more. We've stayed at other rentals in the area that cost less and were far better equipped. I do hope that the issues mentioned above can be remedied and this listing will be very appealing to guests in the future. I felt like I needed to warn upcoming guests though as the stay certainly currently does not justify the price. I wish I had been warned!

We had a wonderful relaxing weekend at the house. Not many places near by, but I'm sure in the summer there would be plenty to do at Raystown Lake!

Charming, cozy and comfortable cabin

We all loved staying at Michael's place - extremely well equipped, it had everything we needed. Communication was great, the location is perfect, very close to main road but isolated enough and with a beautiful view. The hot tub was warm and we spent a great time. Unfortunately, it rained the whole time so we didn't get a lot of opportunity to explore the outdoor area, but we'd love to go back to spend more time there. Thank you!
