NEW - Knotty Pine - Raystown Lake
Nestled just 10 minutes from the sparkling waters of Raystown Lake and a peaceful 5-minute stroll from a private, tucked-away inlet, The Knotty Pine Chalet is more than a cabin — it’s a destination for connection, adventure, and memory-making.
Built in 2021 with gathering in mind, this modern mountain escape is spacious, stylish, and saturated with light thanks to its towering windows and vaulted ceilings. Designed for large groups, the home features 4 private bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, two fully equipped kitchens, and multiple living spaces that make entertaining a breeze — including a handcrafted 12-person dining table that invites long dinners and late-night laughter.
Outdoors, the wide-open deck offers front-row seats to sunrise coffee moments, while the fire pit below is perfect for evening storytelling under the stars. Roast s’mores, sip wine, or simply listen to the sounds of the forest.
Inside, the fun continues. Challenge your crew to foosball, darts, or dive into nostalgia with an arcade console loaded with over 3,000 games. Whether you're celebrating a milestone, hosting a retreat, or gathering the generations, there's something for every age, season, and mood.
Want to explore? Bring your boat — we have ample trailer parking — or rent a pontoon, kayak, or jet ski from the nearby marina. Raystown Lake stretches 28 miles and is flanked by federally protected land, so while no homes sit directly on the water, The Knotty Pine offers something uniquely rare: a private, scenic woodland trail from your back door to one of the lake’s tranquil inlets. You might even spot deer taking an early morning sip.

Our day was amazing! The home was so clean and easy to find! We will definitely make this a yearly thing. I think it would be also good for big groups like bachelorette parties and so on.
