About this property
Cabin Luxary Near Raystown Lake in Peaceful Wooded Area
Margaret’s Getaway built in 2022 is a cabin/lodge style home in a quiet, wooded area minutes from Raystown Lake and the Juniata River. Enjoy the serenity of nature on our property, watch the wildlife from our beautiful wrap-around deck, take a walk around the secluded Raystown Reach development and enjoy the peaceful views all while being a short drive to Huntingdon. There you will find dozens of local restaurants, many interesting things to do from a stroll downtown, catch a movie at the old time theatre, hear some local live music and of course access to multiple grocery options and shopping.
Expect a cozy and comfortable stay at Margaret’s Getaway and you can be assured our home is very well-appointed with all of the amenities you would expect. Curl up on the sofa in the great room and enjoy the ambiance of the fireplace. Cook a gourmet meal in our well-equipped kitchen or take some time to read a novel up in the loft. Family time? Hang out in the family room and play some board games or cards and then head outside to the campfire and make some S’mores or roast some hotdogs.
Margaret’s Getaway features a really cool Arcade Room with a modern day pinball machine and a classic video machine with 60 games! We also have a PS4 in the lower level family room to enjoy on the 55” TV. You will have access to our Mesh Wifi with coverage inside and outside on our property. There are 4 Smart TVs in the house (Master, Living Room, Family Room and Arcade Room) with Direct TV and of course access to your favorite streaming services.
For your information, we have a security camera outside for coverage of the driveway entrance. We also have 2 cameras to monitor our wildlife. There are no cameras inside the house or in areas were you and your family will be hanging out.

About the host
Hosted by Dale & Stacey Manning
We are Stacey and Dale Manning and this year (2022) we will be celebrating our 20th anniversary together. In all of the years we've been together, we have booked many long weekends and week long vacations in unique properties around the country and fell in love with the idea of having our own VRBO property and so here we are. We have had the time of our life building this dream home and we hope you love it as much as we do.
Why they chose this property
If you are looking for a long weekend or a week long time to simply decompress, you will love this place. Relax, unwind, take in the scenery and the wildlife. Cook a gourmet meal, take a walk, go to the lake and cast a line or float a tube on the river. Go into town where there is a wide variety of restaurants and live entertainment and tons of things to do. When you get back to the house, hit the arcade or chill in the spacious family room and watch so TV or play some games or cards. Or go outside and start a campfire.
What makes this property unique
Aside from what has already been mentioned, you are also close to Penn State so if you are looking for a place to stay on a home game weekend, this is the spot!
