Enjoy this cozy, air conditioned cottage 3/10ths of a mile from Lake Raystown. The house is new construction on a wooded 2.5 acres in a quiet neighborhood. Walk the path* to the lake with kayaks or paddle boards, your fishing poles, or just a beach towel and a good book. Bask in the peace and quiet of an evening spent on the deck overlooking the woods. Have fun exploring the woods and building forts, then enjoy roasting marshmallows at the fire pit. Drive ten minutes to the Allegrippas trail head to mountain bike or to Seven Points Marina to boat or go to the beach. It’s also only ten minutes to downtown Huntingdon and ten minutes to Snyder’s Run public boat launch.

This family friendly cottage features an open floor plan kitchen, dining and living room. The kitchen is well appointed for those who like to cook, with bar seating for 2 and a table that expands to seat 8. There is a desk in the living room in case you need to work remotely and wifi to keep you connected. It sleeps 8, with 3 small but charming bedrooms, 2 with queen beds and one with twin bunk beds, and a queen pull out couch in the living room. There is a washer/dryer for your convenience. Laundry detergent is provided. When you need a break from swimming, fishing, and exploring, there are plenty of books, puzzles, and board games for all ages, as well as a smart TV, DVD player, and DVDs for all ages.

*Please note the path comes off the end of the road, where there is a cul-de-sac for parking. The path is maintained by the Army Corps of Engineers. Due to the way Raystown Lake was created, the path to the lake is downhill, which means of course that the way back is uphill, and it is relatively steep at parts. This can be difficult for some people. If you would like easy access for kayaking, you can drive up and drop your kayak right on the beach at the Snyders Run Boat Launch, ~10 min away. The beach at Seven Points is free with free parking and offers more level entry for swimming, about 10 min in the other direction.

Sheets are NOT provided. A kitchen towel and dish cloth are provided, but other towels are NOT. We do provide mattress pads, pillows, quilts. We do provide starter paper towels and starter toilet paper, as well as trash bags, basic soaps (dish/hand) and laundry detergent.

    Easy check in, quiet location. Good kitchen supplies. Wish we didnt have to bring sheets and towels. Long precise list of do's and don't s. No master bath. Just 2 bathrooms on the opposite side of the house from the bedrooms but with 4 teenage girls we managed. Nice fenced in yard and porch.

    Nice weekend trip for riding the mountains bike trails at Raystown lake. The cabin was clean, comfortable and close to all the raystown activities. Grill and fire pit are a nice touch. I enjoyed drinking coffee on the deck. Also really close to the lake. Walkable down a freshly trimmed trail.

    communication with our hosts was excellent, very helpful and quick response times. beautiful house/property and very clean. nice and quiet area. as others have mentioned, path down to the lake is doable but certainly will be a little challenging for some. other beaches are a short drive away. we had a great time and would definitely stay here again!

    We absolutely loved the house, had so many amenities. We enjoyed making small fires and sitting outside on the porch for dinner. Having the washer and dryer was amazing just in case it was needed. We will definitely book this house again. We love coming to Huntingdon, the house made our time even more special.

    We had 5 adults, 2 teenagers, and 1 child. We felt there was plenty of room for all of us. We stayed for 2 evenings and would have definitely stayed longer. Short Walk to the Lake was fully stocked with kitchen pans, utensils, and plates ect. Cleaning supplies were available and everything was labeled and directions were available for the TV ect. There were also many activities, toys and games available for visitors. We rented a Pontoon Boat at Raystown Lake for Friday and had a wonderful time. This house was close by to all the activities we wanted to do. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a cute, clean place to stay for a few days! were available a

    Cute property perfect for a family or group of friends that love the outdoors! Just a 10 minute walk from a beautiful lake which we used to paddle board. 20 minute drive from an amazing hiking trail called thousand steps. We had a wonderful stay and would do it again in a heartbeat. The property was perfect and the deck was my favorite part about the house. Thank you!
