The property was absolutely perfect for what we needed. We were very pleased to be able to stay close to family and friends and this house was perfect. Plently of room for us to spread out if needed. The fit pit was a nice surprise which we took full advantage of both nights as it got a bit cold overnight. We will definitely be renting again. Thank you so much!

Everything was wonderful and the house suited our families so well. The kitchen is fully stocked which was so nice because we love to cook! We enjoyed the front covered porch when it was raining and the back patio was gorgeous! The aitch boat launch is so close to the house which made it very easy. Thanks for a wonderful stay! We will be back!

Great stay!

We enjoyed our stay for the weekend. Property was clean, spacious, and had amenities provided. We rented the Aitch pavilion for a larger gathering on Saturday and the property was the perfect location for getting there quickly. Would recommend!

Lots of room and conveniently located

The house was perfect for our large group of friends. Plenty of room to spread out, nice area in the back to have a fire and grill. Despite being in a fairly rural area, it was still close fairly close to stores and Raystown Lake.

This is our 4th year staying at The Guest House. It is perfect for us. It is always clean and ready to go! The location is great, as it is close to a boat ramp. There is plenty of parking for our boats too.

Near a lovely lake

We had a wonderful time so close to the boat launch and not far from trails for hiking. The house was clean and well kept. Plenty of common space upstairs and downstairs to hang out in. We had fun playing pool on the pool table downstairs. Great stargazing from the backyard.

Pretty darn amazing. Huge kitchen area in the middle of everything, with additional basement game/family room. Huge front yard was great for running around. Fire pit, grill, and picnic table out back were great. Quick drive to 7 points area. Responsive, flexible host communication. Kids loved “driving” the old Ford in the living room.

Nice home - bad location

While the home was very nice I was not expecting the location to be right behind a garage so lots of trucks, junk and right off a major road. I should've done a better job of viewing on google maps or something because I like to be able to walk out the front door and bike or walk my dogs.

Great house for a large family

This house was perfect for our group of 10. There is plenty of sleeping space. The basement bedrooms do not have access to a bathroom on that floor, but it didn't pose a problem for our group, they came upstairs to use the other two (but take note if there are elderly people who cannot do that). Having sheets and bath towels provided was a big help. We enjoyed the outside area as well, but spent a big portion of our time boating (Seven Points Marina right down the road). Front porch was perfect!

House with everything

I can’t say enough good things about this house! It’s so cute and affordable. It’s was clean and spacious. The owners put thought into everything and exceeded our expectations- so many nice touches for guests. The location is close enough to either of the main marinas. The business/garage located in front of the house bothered us none. It’s far enough from the house that we didn’t hear any noise or have any issues with it. You can still sit on the front or side porch and enjoy the outside. The back yard and fire pit were perfect and we spent so much time there. The big picnic table was perfect for our large group. So happy we found this gem!

We had a great stay at this guest house. Nice location with plenty of parking space, quiet, private surroundings, a very stocked and usable kitchen, etc. We thoroughly enjoyed our time around the campfire and appreciated the quick response from the host to correct a minor issue upon check-in. A few suggestions we would give include, a bathroom in the basement (as others have stated already), exhaust fans in the bathrooms, and stronger Wi-Fi in the house. Would stay again.
