Bathroom wasn't the cleanest. The shower had a bit of mold, there was period blood on the floor, and the toilet was also not very clean. The smoke detectors went off if you tried to boil water, or if you left the light on in the loft for too long.

4th of July weekend

Came to boat on the lake for the fourth. Have stayed here multiple times and have enjoyed the privacy and boat parking and access to trails. There was an occupied camper parked on the property as well which was different than what we had expected and would have been nice to know ahead of time.

Clean, convenient, quiet

Tastefully remodeled, adequately appointed, frequented the local store about 5 minutes away. Located midway on the lake. Some confusion on the front door lock instructions, stairs to upper level can be very challenging for someone with mobility problems. Parked boat on property as permitted and enjoyed fishing and boating on the lake.

Short getaway of perfection

Sheets for the futon were not provided for. There are seem to be confusion that there were four adults staying when it was booked with only three.

Allegrippis Access

We were making a quick trip to Raystown for a couple days of riding the Allegrippis Trails; The Snug fit our needs. It was an easy 1/2 mile ride to the trail head; the neighborhood was quiet; the kitchen had the essentials; and the shower had sufficient pressure and hot water. Had we been staying longer, an oven and laundry facilities would have been welcome.

Snug review

This is a great little cabin in a great location close to the bike trails, 7 Points boat launch, restaurants and stores. It's quiet, it's clean, and we'd definitely stay there again. One small thing that would have been nice is a picnic table. But again, it was a nice cabin. The grill worked great, and the fire pit was nice too.

clean but not what i expected

This property is close to The Lake and very clean and cute. I'm not sure if I did not read the listing as carefully as I should have as the kitchen is not a full kitchen with only an electric burner (not a stove or oven) and minimal utensils etc. I have food allergies and expected a full kitchen so a bit disappointing. Also feel they should be more clear about how step the steps to the bedrooms are as we are getting older and they were a bit challenging. But over all a nice "snug" place.

Father’s day getaway

Convenient location extremely close to trails and Marina. We were able to easily mountain bike and hike as well as launch our boat. Love that there was enough parking for two vehicles and the boat. Home was clean and could easily sleep six people. It was nice to have a full-size fridge. The two burner stove was a bit uneven to cook with, and the Wi-Fi was spotty but other than that it was perfect. We would definitely book here again.

Cozy spot near all Raystown Lake attractions

We enjoyed our stay here. The place was clean, accessible, as described and very close to the Alligrippis Trail parking area for fun mountain biking. We stayed here with two kids and seems like there would be room for more. We appreciated that it is pet free as my wife is highly allergic to animals. I would definitely visit again.

Really great location

A friend and I met there and had a really nice weekend! The place was nice and cool and clean and a great location-close to the marina, beach and other local attractions. The “wifi” was a hotspot from a cell phone which was not at all reliable. And no way to watch TV without internet connection. Also the steps to the second floor were very steep. I have a bad knee so it was not easy-especially in the middle of the night. All in all it was a great place though! And a seriously beautiful trip!
