Weekend biking trip

Nice weekend trip for riding the mountains bike trails at Raystown lake. The cabin was clean, comfortable and close to all the raystown activities. Grill and fire pit are a nice touch. I enjoyed drinking coffee on the deck. Also really close to the lake. Walkable down a freshly trimmed trail.

perfect spot for a relaxing lake stay

communication with our hosts was excellent, very helpful and quick response times. beautiful house/property and very clean. nice and quiet area. as others have mentioned, path down to the lake is doable but certainly will be a little challenging for some. other beaches are a short drive away. we had a great time and would definitely stay here again!

Nice weekend get away

Cute property perfect for a family or group of friends that love the outdoors! Just a 10 minute walk from a beautiful lake which we used to paddle board. 20 minute drive from an amazing hiking trail called thousand steps. We had a wonderful stay and would do it again in a heartbeat. The property was perfect and the deck was my favorite part about the house. Thank you!

Great house, great location. My brother and I have stayed here multiple times on Mt bike trips and every time, we are beyond pleased with our stay. The deck is a great spot for a morning coffee and an afternoon beer. The house is close to town and the lake. Thank you again.

Great weekend away

The property was well maintained and very clean. It was great to sit on the back porch and enjoy the wind in the trees and listen to the birds. The fenced in backyard was perfect for the kids to run around! Also, my husband was very happy with the outside electric outlet where he was able to charge his Tesla.

Quick but wonderful experience

We had 5 adults, 2 teenagers, and 1 child. We felt there was plenty of room for all of us. We stayed for 2 evenings and would have definitely stayed longer. Short Walk to the Lake was fully stocked with kitchen pans, utensils, and plates ect. Cleaning supplies were available and everything was labeled and directions were available for the TV ect. There were also many activities, toys and games available for visitors. We rented a Pontoon Boat at Raystown Lake for Friday and had a wonderful time. This house was close by to all the activities we wanted to do. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a cute, clean place to stay for a few days! were available a

Great cottage near Raystown Lake

We really enjoyed our stay at Lakeside cottage. Great, location! Very short walk to the lake and little beach area. Close to everything. 10 minutes to Huntingdon, 10 minutes to Allegrippes trails, close to 7 points marina. The cottage is super clean, very nicely furnished and had everything we needed. The covered front porch was also a nice space for hanging out. The owners are fantastic. Very responsive and kind. My daughter goes to Juniata college and we stayed this weekend to provide a nice relaxing study space for her to prepare for finals and for us to stay while moving her out. Will definitely stay here again for other school events but also hoping to visit in the summertime. Thanks for a great stay!

Peaceful, lovely, home near the lake. Superior Hosts.

My family spent 4 wonderful nights at Lakeside lake house. There were 7 of us ranging from 2 to 65 years old. Pre-planning and communication with Carin and Matt was outstanding. Carin was fantastic to work with and extremely responsive. The house seems at first small, BUT the reality is, it has everything you need in a compact, pleasant space. Everything was neat and clean and NEW. We loved it. The couches and beds were comfortable and beautiful. The appliances were top of the line. The kitchen island was so useful, especially having 2 stools my grandsons loved to sit at. The dining table and chairs were perfect as well. Moving to the outside, the porch and porch furniture were perfect. We so enjoyed the fire pit every night. It was so nice of the owners to allow us to use their firewood. The owners certainly have thought of everything to include in the home. It's nice when there are paper products there already. We played several of the games and even used some of the toys, once my grandsons discovered them. Also nice that they provided information about activities and restaurants and the surrounding area. While the description of the proximity to the lake was accurate in all the descriptions, it certainly was challenging, but we made it work. It did help to drive to the end of the road. And it was nice that we had the option of just walking down and getting to the lake. The water was clear and clean and we enjoyed a lot of time even swimming there. NOTE - we rented a pontoon boat at the Marina, and good to know, we could drive right up to the spot at the end of the path near the house, and drop off or pick up people. We weren't sure about that as they had warnings about mile markers when you rent the boat, but it was super convenient. You certainly will not be disappointed if you rent this lovely home. And you certainly will be happy to work with Carin and Matt. Thank you for an excellent family vacation experience!!

Family vacation

We absolutely loved the house, had so many amenities. We enjoyed making small fires and sitting outside on the porch for dinner. Having the washer and dryer was amazing just in case it was needed. We will definitely book this house again. We love coming to Huntingdon, the house made our time even more special.

Labor Day blast!

The property was perfect. There was everything and more already supplied from roasting sticks for stores, outside table to eat while cooking on the grill, to a cozy feeling of being at home. There just enough room that everyone was able to relax and not be bothered with one another if a baby was sleeping or if someone wanted to read a book. The beach was close to walk to if your energetic for a steep walk home. The house is loaded with cooking supplies and has all brand new appliances! I would rent this cute house again...especially after watching deer on the property in the morning.

Great Location

We have been visiting Huntingdon for years and always wanted a place to stay near Raystown Lake. This location is ideal for swimming, kayaking, boating, or just sitting by the lake with your feet in the water. The house is well equipped with essentials for meals, sleeping, and general entertainment. Strong wifi was key and handled all our devices without lagging. The owners are very accommodating and quick to respond to any questions. We had a very nice stay with extended family and look forward to returning.

Great Stay!

This property was perfect for a small trip to the lake to take our boat out. The house was clean and stocked well with all the necessities. There was enough room to pull our boat in the driveway. The short walk down to the lake was an added bonus. Our family will definitely consider staying here in the future for our small getaways!
