About the host

Why they chose this property
We love the secluded, yet convenient location of our home. Our private home is located on a quiet, dead-end street, but is less than 5 minutes from all the fun Lake Raystown offers. It is a perfect spot for boaters, bikers, fishers, hunters, hikers and PSU fans.
We are less than 5 minutes to the Lake Raystown Visitors Center, 7 Points Marina, the boat launch and the beach. Bring your boat. We have ample space for boat parking.
We are directly across the street from the Allegrippis Trail system and some of the best mountain biking in PA. Keep your bikes safe in the keyless locked shed.
Hunters will enjoy the same convenient access to thousands of acres of huntable Army Corps of Engineers land.
Walk, bike or drive about a mile to the dead-end street and find a secluded cove for fishing, picnicking or just relax in nature. Our grandchildren love to fish and turtle watch here!
PSU fans will be happy here...less than 50 minutes to Happy Valley.
