The house was very comfortable and clean. Located close to town yet was private and secluded. River was beautiful - sound of running water and view of river was great. We would stay there again.

Fantastic place for the weekend!

We stayed at the Little Juniata River house for an our daughter’s graduation from PSU and would certainly stay here again if we’re visiting State College, Huntingdon, or Raystown Lake. The owners were very responsive and the house is exactly as advertised - very clean, spacious, well furnished, and just a perfect setting along the river.

This is a beautiful house with an ideal location for outdoor activities: kayaking, fishing, hiking, lots of room for six indoors and out. We loved sitting around the fire pit by the waters edge. Highly recommend!
