About this property

Multi-Family Getaway at Raystown Lake in Central PA

Spacious 4 bedroom house on a 1.5 acre wooded lot conveniently located within 2 miles to Tatman Run boat launch / recreation area, Trough Creek State park and Raystown Resort. Perfect for multifamily gathering with 3 levels, each with bedroom and full bath for privacy. Main level has open kitchen / dining / living room area that opens to partially covered deck that makes nice gathering area. Lower level rec room with ping pong table opens up to covered patio. 2 big screen TV's with HD Direct TV and many VCR and DVD movies. Gas fireplace in rec room and wood burning stove in living room for gathering on chilly nights. Kitchen is fully stocked. Large sized weber gas grill with propane provided. Enjoy a night making 'smores or a cold drink by the fire pit.

Private wooded development to get away from it all, but many conveniences nearby. Local seasonal camp stores within 2 miles. Grocery store 7 miles away in town of Saxton. Many walking trails directly from house with breathtaking views of lake and mountains. Only 20 miles from Historic town of Huntingdon for all your shopping needs. Tatman Run recreation area is 2 miles away with boat launch, beach, playground and picnic area. Less than 1 hour to State College, Blue Knob Ski Area, Altoona or Bedford. Raystown Lake is the centerpiece attraction of the area but there are so many hiking areas, mountain biking trails, museums, amusement parks, historic sites, etc that you will run out of time before you can run out things to do.

Guests need to bring their own linens and towels. We recommend 4wd vehicles in winter due to rural mountain roads ands sloped private drive.

Weekend trip

We rented this property after looking at several others for a combined bachelorette/bachelor party for our group of 11. This house was wonderful! There was more than enough room to accommodate our group. The area where it was located was very peaceful and beautiful. The outdoor deck/patio area and fire pit were our favorite from our stay! We would definitely recommend this house to others.

We having been coming to Raystown for the last 9 years, where we have spent 6 of those at this house. It truly is a home away from home. The owners have great communication with their guest and we always enjoy our stay. Looking forward to next year already.

Hope to make it an annual stay

An ideal home base for a week at Raystown with extended family group. Super convenient to get to Tatman Run for swimming daily and to connect up with a pontoon boat that we rented for a day. The sleeping spaces were very good, albeit the beds crinkled a bit from the mattress protectors or something. Each room has a comfortable queen bed except for one that has a double with a bunkbed. A queen in that room would make it perfect. Loved --loved-- loved ---having two refrigerators to hold the food for our large party!! The fire pit was in a beautiful setting. Cooked hotdogs and s'mores there one evening. Hope to make this our lodging for our annual Raystown trip.

perfect

A great house with a super great host. Kitchen had every appiiance and utensil you might need. A fire pit with wood provided and plenty of privacy though neighbors nearby. Hiking right off the street and a State Park only a mile away. Communication with host was one of our best experiences with VRBO owners. We would go back in a heart beat!

Awesome family get away

There were 8 adults in our party and we all had plenty of space. The porches were great for sitting outside and everyone enjoyed the ping pong. Close to several things to do. Raystown lake of course but Lincoln Caverns was truly something not to miss!

Yearly Raystown Family Gathering

We love this house. This is the second time we've stayed there. While we had seven of our immediate family overnight, we had other family members visit for the day. Clean and well equipped for cooking large meals. Didn't get to do the firepit this year due to being too tired from boating all day and the heat but enjoyed our stay.

Perfect house

This house was the perfect getaway. Plenty of room in the drive way for 2 boats plus 2 vehicles. Kids loved the game room. There was a whole closet of games. The owners really think of everything you will need to enjoy your stay down to s’more sticks at the fire and bug bite medicine in the bathroom. Would definitely recommend this place and will definitely be back. The owners are great and very responsive.

About the host

Hosted by Charles Cuaz

Host profile image
We built this house with the design in mind for gathering with family and friends. We have been blessed with a lot of enjoyment sharing our house with great guests who are looking for the same type of getaway.

Our guests have come to celebrate children's birthdays, 30th birthdays, 60th birthdays and 80th birthdays. We have had groups stay for weddings at nearby Raystown Resort along with anniversaries, bachelor / bachelorette weekends. We've had a couple get engaged during a stay and another couple spend their honeymoon week. The wives of servicemen of Afghanistan war from Ohio and NJ setup a weekend to meet each others families. Holiday gatherings for both local families needing a bigger house or families traveling. Or just families looking to for a weekend getaway. We especially enjoy our repeat guests and referrals

Why they chose this property

Central PA location makes it very convenient for a central gathering location from Eastern - Western PA, NY, VA, NJ, MD and DC. Wooded development with plenty of quiet privacy, but close to all the local attractions. No traffic jams or long lines. Economical shopping and family fun activities. We believe you will agree with the comments posted and work hard to assure you will.

What makes this property unique

Modern house with up to date appliances and furnishings. The three levels and multiple outside seating areas allow plenty of space for privacy but also enough room and seating for family gatherings.
