About this property

Log Home on the Lake

This log home was custom built with all the furnishings and decor of an upscale lodge. You may have see pictures in Cabin Life magazine, where it has been featured several times. There are four official bedrooms with two extra rooms in the basement with beds. There are also 4 full baths and 1 half bath. Large decks on the front and back of house with bench swings. Kids and adults can walk down to the lake behind the house to swim, fish and more. This house is one of the closest homes to the lake available (about 350 steps) and we are located in a wake-free zone, meaning boats need to drive very slowly behind the house.

There is a large fire pit for bonfires and s'mores. The back yard is flat for bocci, volleyball or other activities. My son used to have paint ball fights with friends in the woods directly behind the house.

The dining room table seats eight comfortably. There are 3 bar stools to the kitchen counter for additional seating.

One of the many great features of this house is each of the three floors has separate entertaining space so people can get together in smaller groups if desired. The lower level has a family room and air hockey table and direct access to the back yard. The loft on the second floor is great for games - bumper pool, playing cards, board games or puzzles. There's something for everyone!

There are 4 tvs (great room, basement family room and in two of the bedrooms) should you want them.

Besides being close to the water, you are also close (10 minutes) from downtown Huntingdon - groceries, beer/wine/liquor, restaurants, gym ($5 for the day) and a Super Walmart. We are about 12 minutes from Seven Points Marina if you want to rent a boat/kayake/paddle board or use their water trampoline. We are also roughly 45 minutes from Penn State for football games and other activities as well.

And if you are an adventurer, some of the best bike trails are about 10 minutes away. There are also excellent hiking trails for every skill level. I go down to Juniata College in town and play tennis and my kids have roller bladed around campus. There is definitely plenty to do!

Please note property has exterior security cameras with video and sound recording.

About the host

Hosted by Jill Jones

Host profile image
Hi. I'm Jill. I live in Maryland and have worked in the hospitality industry for 20 years which included Marriott and Choice Hotels. I worked for an international interior decorating company before that. I like to think I know something about decor and how to create an atmosphere that is appealing to guests and makes them feel welcome and comfortable. I have two teenage children that have spent most of their lives vacationing at the cabin. We have celebrated birthdays, family reunions, and holidays with extended family up here. When I was a kid, I spent summers on Lake George in NY with my grandparents and fell in love with lake life. I was happy to find a wonderful, large, clear lake so close to home. Let me help you make your next vacation a memorable one!

Why they chose this property

I love log homes and Lake Raystown. I find that I truly relax the moment I step into the cabin. My kids have grown up on the lake and had so many great experiences. I hope others feel the same way when they get here. I designed it myself and had it built by an amazing builder in the area that I would highly recommend - Dan Coffman.

What makes this property unique

Absolutely gorgeous home and views. Truly relaxing. One of the only homes on the lake in which you can walk to the water.
