This place has sooooo much potential. This was our 2nd time staying here and unfortunately it will be our last. The last time we stayed here, the rotten egg water smell was unbearable. I can gladly say that the bad water smell has be greatly reduced. However, now the property inside and out is being overrun by stinkbugs. Literally the entire inside had stinkbugs everywhere dead on the floor and flying around. It's the mountains, so I get it, bugs are around. This isn't that. This is literally an infestation. I'm talking about 100's of dead/alive stinkbugs EVERYWHERE. On top of that, really only (1) shower was functional which was very disappointing. Especially if you're bringing a large group. I paid for (3) functional bathrooms. You know? The shower downstairs was completely broken, the shower in the master bedroom was unusable due to the fact that it leaks onto the floor. The 3rd shower was functional, but again, I paid for 3 showers. Not 1. The setting is great. Not secluded, as other houses are within 200-300 feet or so. But it does feel somewhat private. Almost EVERYTHING on the property is in a state of disrepair... literally EVERYTHING. For what we paid, this place should be more well maintained. The downstairs is great. There's plenty to do. Pool, cards, fosball...etc...etc. The downstairs game area is the crown jewel of this property. There is directv onsite which is great. However, there is no wifi as advertised. So...Much... Potential...Wasted.
We had a really great time staying here. The house is very large and worked great for us. The WiFi did not work while we were there but we didn’t mind that at all. We look forward to staying here again in the future.
Very big place, needs updated. Two showers out of 3 didn't work. Carpets in master suite needs replaced. The full bed in where full bed is needs to be made sturdy along with the bunkbeds. Drapes or window coverings in that same room are needed. Place suited our needs for Thanksgiving. Big 12 seat table in dining room is very nice. Internet does not work. It is DSL. Summer outings would be nice here.
The pictures of the house did not align with the property. It needed some much needed landscaping, the carpets were filthy, the water smelled like rotten eggs, the tub in the master suite leaked and if that wasn’t enough the roof leaked. Very disappointing
This property is fantastic for a group of people. My friends and I had an amazing time. The owner is super nice and always answered on the first phone call. We have already talked about renting this place again at some point.
We absolutely loved the cabin, loved the time we spent there. The kids had a great time. The adults relaxed and got to spend much needed time with each other.
Overall our stay was nice. However, the water still smells absolutely horrible. The rotten egg smell of the water is almost unbearable. The last 2 days of our stay none of us showered. The place is a wonderful place to go but the water situation is a big deal. No internet was available. Luckily I had wifi tethering to my phone. Other than those 2 things, the place is amazing.
The house was nice but it could use some upgrades. All 8 of us (6 adults and 2 older kids) enjoyed the game room and we got alot of use out of it and it kept everyone interacting together. The water has a stinky odor. The master shower leaks do to a bad design when installed. We kept seeing bugs in the master bedroom (we think termites). The carpet in the master bedroom had several stains and looked dirty. Only one ac unit worked out of the 2 and with 90 degree temps outside, we had hoped for better. The wifi is so weak that we were better off not using it. Overall we would still give the house a 7 out of 10 rating if you can get past the flaws. We made the best of it and still enjoyed our trip as always.
I don't really understand any negative reviews. Yes there is a sulfur odor to the water, but it does not transfer to the air or your body; you only notice it while running water. So we didn't drink tap water, but we used it for everything else. The cabin is huge with an amazing view from the back, an awesome kitchen table, and a whole lot more. The game room, patio, outdoor fire pit, family room, screened in patio (with fireplace) and proximity to lake activities make this cabin perfect for a larger family. The owners /property managers even went WAY beyond the call of duty to address a small issue we had, AND then the owner even helped us with a problem we had with our boat (certainly not his problem). I would highly recommend!
We have a boat at Raystown and typically camp for a week each summer but went this direction this summer. I am so glad we did! The house was perfect and the location was ideal. It was big enough for our large group and we had a blast!
We had a great trip visiting nearby Raystown lake, Allegrippis Trails and 1000 Steps. House was 10 min from the lake.
I highly recommend this cabin, it’s looks a lot better then the pictures and it’s very roomy with that home feeling, one of the best weekends I ever had!!
Do to illness we had to leave the day after we arrived.I called the owner twice but only received a message. I asked him to call me when he received my message and I am still waiting. The dishwasher was full of dirty dishes and does not operate John H Brady
This property was a huge disappointment!! The water has an extremely offensive over powering odor of raw sewage that engulfs the entire home!!! It is absolutely disgusting and needs to be corrected! Even the laundry reeked! Home was not clean. Was extremely disappointed that sheets and towels were not provided. It’s inconvenient to travel and bring your own linens. Drainage issues with the master shower that flooded the bathroom floor! Be warned!
