Secluded/Spacious Cabin with 5 BR, 5 min to resort "New Kitchen coming 2026!!"

Quiet cabin located on a private mountain road. Very spacious with 3 floors and 5 bedrooms with a lot to do. Bring the whole family, we can sleep up to 10 people.
We are close to Lake Raystown Resort, Trough Creek State Park, Allegrippas Bike Trail, Juniata College, Penn State University, Lincoln Caverns and 1,000 Steps. Close to various boat launches and there is space to pull in and park a boat or two with a large wrap around driveway. There is a large wrap around deck with patio furniture for lots of seating. Enjoy the firepit area, with lots of room to sit and roast marshmallows or hot dogs! For the security of our guests and the safety of our home, we have an external security camera located on the end of the garage wall closest to the driveway.

Please be cautious when using water, with being on the mountain our well capacity is not as high as most, but we do have a 3000 gallon additional storage on top of what our well produces. We have yet to have any issues thanks to our additional water storage and guests who have worked with us on this issue!
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2.5 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 5 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a travel crib.

Prime relaxation spot!

Everything was as pictured and described in the listing but the deck was so much more! Sitting at all hours of the days among the tree tops offered an excellent way to enjoy nature. This house had something for every member of our extended family and the dining table was perfect for large meals when it rained. This was the best stocked kitchen of any rental property. I took casserole dishes and my crock pot but both were already there. The coffee bar and basic cooking supplies were a hit as well. The drive way was plenty big for a boat although the road to the the property would have been tight if we had passed another car, but we didn’t so all was good.This is a great house for someone with limited mobility as there is a ramp to enter the house and bedroom on the main floor which, along with very close parking. All the furnishings were very comfortable and set up well for large groups. The bunk beds were a hit for the youngest. Great communication from the host as well! Overall, this was an excellent stay!!!

Great long weekend

This is an amazing property. The house is large, clean and well kept. We had 10 people and stayed comfortably here. The kitchen is well stocked, the living room furniture is in great shape and comfy. We enjoyed the fire pit area and used the grill for burgers. Kids loved the pool table. Internet is on the slow side and didn’t always let the Roku function properly. Very close to Lake Raystown resort. We would definitely love to stay here again.

Mountain Retreat

My family really enjoyed this property, it felt as if we were "off grid" but with all the amenities of being "on grid". Home was very clean and as advertised in the photos. The photos, however, do not do justice to the gorgeous views and peaceful surroundings. My family enjoyed sitting on the deck watching the chipmunks and other animals and just enjoying nature. The home was large enough to accommodate 3 generations and we never felt on top of each other. The rooms are incredibly spacious. In addition to the large space and beautiful surroundings, this home was stocked with everything you need. Pots, pans, bowls, cookie sheets, trays and anything else you may need to cook meals. Plenty of dishes, cups and silverware. There were lots of extra blankets, sheets and towels. You really only need your groceries. The owners are very accessible and respond quickly to any questions. Highly recommend this property.

Friends forever

This get together is a yearly tradition that 5 other high school best friends and I decided we need to do. Although the furthest away one lives is 3 hours we rarely get to see other. When the first of our group arrived, he grouped texted us and only wrote WOW! He could not believe how beautiful the place was (even though it was raining). As we all showed up, we felt at home instantly as we checked the house out, and couldn't believe how nice it was. Having the pool table was a great touch since it rained almost all weekend, however we did get to have a fire on Saturday and kept it burning all day and through the evening. Sitting around the massive table and enjoying the stories and food was so cheerful. We did joke on how clean everything was and each time when we would come through the door, we would hang our jackets up and place our shoes neatly on the mat (my wife asked me why I didn't do this at home lol). I can say without a doubt this place was well worth the money to catch up with 5 of my best friends.

Perfect, Spacious, Comfortable and Private Family vacation

Our family for 5 (including 3 kids under the age of 4) had a wonderful long weekend in this beautiful, private, and very spacious home on the mountainside! The home was very clean with great amenities and everything we needed for adults and toddlers alike! Carolynne was super easy to communicate with and the home was so well prepared with easy and simple check in and check out procedures! I highly recommend a stay at her place for anyone looking to get away with their family of any size!!

Great property

Terrific hillside house in the woods with lots of options for sleeping arrangements. The fire pit is a bonus. Don't worry if you forgot something, the host probably has it stocked in the house somwhere; kitchen, bath and bedding very well supplied. Mini-splits in every room. Seems to be very recently remodled and everything looks very nice and designed to be comfortable. Just about 8 minutes from the lake.
