About this property
Multi-Family Getaway at Raystown Lake in Central PA
Spacious 4 bedroom house on a 1.5 acre wooded lot conveniently located within 2 miles to Tatman Run boat launch / recreation area, Trough Creek State park and Raystown Resort. Perfect for multifamily gathering with 3 levels, each with bedroom and full bath for privacy. Main level has open kitchen / dining / living room area that opens to partially covered deck that makes nice gathering area. Lower level rec room with ping pong table opens up to covered patio. 2 big screen TV's with HD Direct TV and many VCR and DVD movies. Gas fireplace in rec room and wood burning stove in living room for gathering on chilly nights. Kitchen is fully stocked. Large sized weber gas grill and outdoor Blackstone griddle with propane provided. Enjoy a night making 'smores or a cold drink by the fire pit.
Private wooded development to get away from it all, but many conveniences nearby. Local seasonal camp stores within 2 miles. Grocery store 7 miles away in town of Saxton. Only 20 miles from Historic town of Huntingdon for all your shopping needs. Tatman Run recreation area is 2 miles away with boat launch, beach, playground and picnic area. Trough Creek State Park 2 miles with many hiking and biking trails, suspension bridge, waterfalls and more. Less than 1 hour to State College, Blue Knob Ski Area, Altoona or Bedford. Raystown Lake is the centerpiece attraction of the area but there are so many hiking areas, mountain biking trails, museums, amusement parks, historic sites, etc that you will run out of time before you can run out things to do.
Guests need to bring their own linens and towels. We recommend 4wd vehicles in winter due to rural mountain roads ands sloped private drive.

This property was perfect for our two families. The house was beautiful and the property was so well maintained. We enjoyed two nights relaxing by the firepit. We highly recommend this property for a relaxing weekend by the lake!
This house was fantastic. It exceeded our expectations. We took a nice “hike/walk” New Year’s Day and the property is just beautiful. We look forward to visiting again
Wonderful place for a quick getaway with friends from highschool and the children. Housed 6 adults and 6 kids 3 and under great. We had a blast. The location couldn’t have been better!
This is a beautiful home. It is clean, well cared for and is in a very good location. The kitchen is well equipped. We really enjoyed our second visit to this home and will be back again!
Second time staying here; this time for a full week. Perfect location for accessing Raystown Lake Beach area at Tatman Run and close enough to make renting a boat one day easy. Cabin house was perfect for the 4 families that stayed there. Never had any issues. Love love love having a second fridge for our large group! Looking forward to returning next year!
Good location in a nice neighborhood, plenty of room for 8 adults. The kitchen is well supplied and the large dining room table is a plus.
Would rent again.
I would highly recommend staying at this place. It gives you that cabin look without you having to worry about being hours away from any stores. Spacious rooms, multiple bathrooms, big living room and big extra rec room that you can play ping pong or just chill and watch tv. Also has central air which is a huge plus and the owners were very easy to deal with. Definitely would go back again.
We have stayed at this property for many years and have similar experience each stay. Very good communication before arrival with detailed instructions; clean, well appointed house; nice grill and firepit; location close to marina and trough creek. Recommend property and owners as 5 star!
We rented this property after looking at several others for a combined bachelorette/bachelor party for our group of 11. This house was wonderful! There was more than enough room to accommodate our group. The area where it was located was very peaceful and beautiful. The outdoor deck/patio area and fire pit were our favorite from our stay! We would definitely recommend this house to others.
We love this house. This is the second time we've stayed there. While we had seven of our immediate family overnight, we had other family members visit for the day. Clean and well equipped for cooking large meals. Didn't get to do the firepit this year due to being too tired from boating all day and the heat but enjoyed our stay.
A great house with a super great host. Kitchen had every appiiance and utensil you might need. A fire pit with wood provided and plenty of privacy though neighbors nearby. Hiking right off the street and a State Park only a mile away. Communication with host was one of our best experiences with VRBO owners. We would go back in a heart beat!
An ideal home base for a week at Raystown with extended family group. Super convenient to get to Tatman Run for swimming daily and to connect up with a pontoon boat that we rented for a day. The sleeping spaces were very good, albeit the beds crinkled a bit from the mattress protectors or something. Each room has a comfortable queen bed except for one that has a double with a bunkbed. A queen in that room would make it perfect. Loved --loved-- loved ---having two refrigerators to hold the food for our large party!! The fire pit was in a beautiful setting. Cooked hotdogs and s'mores there one evening. Hope to make this our lodging for our annual Raystown trip.
Had a wonderful time during our stay- the house was the perfect spot for us! Plenty of space to relax and enjoy a beautiful fall weekend- location was great too. Thanks for hosting us!!
