Luxury Cabin mins to Raystown Lake; Firepit, Basketball Court, Arcade

The Sugar Maple Chalet is 7 minutes away from Raystown Lake. This home was designed for you and your large group to stay!! It has a fire pit, basketball court, grill, and an arcade with over 3,000 games!

Whether you like to be at the lake or in the mountains enjoying the views, this is a win-win property. Go boating, hiking, mountain biking, hunting on the federal grounds, to a Penn State game, to a lake beach, water park, or gather with a large group of friends/family!! This home is perfectly designed for an extended family reunion, baby shower, church retreat, anything but a wild party :)

The Sugar Maple Chalet has something for every season and age group!! Sit outside on the large deck and watch an amazing sunrise as you sip your coffee or snuggle up inside or outdoors by the fire pit. Have a huge meal together around the handrafted wooden dinning room table that seats 12. There is a ton of space to prepare and enjoy a meal.

Raystown Lake and Seven Points Marina is 10 minutes away down the mountain! Bring your boat and trailer! Our home has plenty of parking!! Or rent a boat, wave runner, or kayak. Raystown Lake is unique in that it is 28 miles of lake (8,300 acres) to to explore!! It is surrounded by Federal Game Land, all preserved in its natural habitat. This means no homes on Raystown Lake have private access to the water. Our home is great that it is still very close to the lake! Be sure to be on the lookout for American eagles in the tree tops looking for fish in the early morning or soaring on the thermals in the afternoon!! The deer love to come for early morning lake drinks. We have seen otters and beavers play in the waters edge. There are two beach areas on the lake, two restaurants to dock the boat and get something to eat or get gas for the boat right on the water. Also, many little private coves and areas to explore!

We take pride in our home, and want you to feel at home when you are our guest. We take cleanliness seriously and will do our best to make sure everything is perfect for your vacation. We provide more so you can pack less: linens, blankets, sheets, towels, hands towels, dish soaps, dish towels, a full stocked gourmet kitchen, refrigerator, and games for the kids (and adults). If there’s a problem, let us know and we will resolve it. We can help you to navigate your trip, make recommendations for eating out and things to do, and will be responsive to your needs.

Pet Fee: Up to 3 pets are allowed in the home at any time. The pet fee is $100 per pet per stay to a max of 3 pets and $300. Allowing pets helps renters to not have to board their furry family members while away.

We will accept up to 20 overnight guests.

Noise must be controlled after 9 p.m. If you need to cancel your reservation, we will refund 100% if you do so 60 days or more before your stay.

You will have our host's personal cell number and we can be reached any time before or during your trip to ensure a wonderful stay at our home!

Finally, we will clean the property after your stay, but we do require guests to leave the rooms and floors free of debris, trash, wet towels, dishes, etc. Sheets and towels will need to be placed in the laundry area and dishes cleaned and put back where they were found. This allows us to charge a smaller cleaning fee for such a large home. If any items are left behind we do charge a minimum of $25 extra for the return. This covers the time for our crew to go back and look for the item, as well as shipping.

Please let us know if you have any questions. In designing the home we tried to think of everything you would need and we will be honored to be your hosts! The mountain and lake combination never disappoints

Perfect getaway!

This house was the perfect place to celebrate my husbands birthday with his family. 8 Adults, 5 rowdy boys (8 - 14), 3 dogs, and there was still space. The house had the most stocked kitchen our family has ever experienced in a rental. The beds were pretty comfortable and the firepit was a centerpiece for our nights. We were able to get out our telescope and see Jupiter and Saturn. It's pretty close to the Allegrippis mountain bike and hiking trails. We packed a lot into a weekend and had a blast.

A great getaway in the woods!

Can't say enough about how perfect this trip was for my group of friends. We stayed for 3 nights over New Year's weekend. The location was exactly what we wanted- just remote enough that the only sounds were wildlife (and the occasional hunter at work off in the distance), but close enough to town that a trip for any missing necessities was easy. Plenty of bedrooms, fast wifi, and LOTS of space including a lower level with a TV which was perfect for providing multiple activities like videogames and New Year's Eve broadcasts/sports in tandem with the main upstairs TV. Our hosts provided instructions to make check-in and check-out easy, including detailed driving directions. Thanks for hosting us!

Perfect house for extended/large families

Very nice, clean, well designed, large, family friendly chalet at the end of a private driveway in the woods, three levels, with bedrooms and bathrooms on each level which made it a perfect stay for several adult couples/families. We were allowed to bring our dogs who loved it there too. The only comment I would make is that there was no glassware, so if you like a glass of wine with dinner, bring your own! Perfect stay, thank you!

Sugar Maple Chalet

Great cabin and very clean. Bringing your own sheets is different but not a big deal. At least you know you’re sleeping on clean sheets. The fire pit is nice and a great place to hang out. Close enough access to stores etc if needed but secluded location feeling at the cabin. I would recommend anyone stay here if you’re looking for a place near Raystown. We didn’t boat during the stay but there’s lots of parking if you decide to bring one. An overall great stay and weekend.

Disappointed Stay, Not Luxurious At All. Do Not Recommend

Sofas in living room need replacing. Online listing does not show peeling of leather sofas and the frames are loose. Coffee maker not working from Day 1. Owner contacted and replied that he was aware that coffee maker wasn't working but hadn't replaced yet. I requested someone bring new coffee maker. Local cleaning lady was apparently ill, so someone in our family had to go and get new coffee maker. Found dirty socks and tissues in downstairs bedroom when making up the bed. Sent pic to owner. The kitchen was filthy and not well stocked. Crumbs and such in every kitchen drawer. Our group had to run dishwasher after every meal in order to have enough dinnerware for next meal. Majority of "glassware" was plastic and some were warped. We were provided one grungy drab dish towel. Placemats were stained, hot pads were too dirty to consider touching. The outdoor grill was appalling and the guys spent a good 1/2h cleaning. Lastly, be aware that the thermostat is locked so that you cannot turn AC temp below 70°. This information is not in the listing. This cabin comes with premium pricing but the cabin cleanliness, furnishings and accessories are well below par.

Be aware before you book

The home was the perfect size for 12 people to comfortably fit in. The house was clean and the amenities were great for the kids and adults. A few things that we were not aware of before booking the home was that they did not provide linen or towels. The light was also dim and the fridge initially did not work. The owner was communicative about it and the issue was resolved after some time. Overall, it was an enjoyable stay with some unexpected issues.
