A gem in the mountains

This is an excellent property, great for large groups. The set up is perfect if you are traveling with a crowd. The view is unreal. The property was very clean and well stocked. The drive to the property is a little scary, but so worth it. We had an awesome time - would highly recommend.

Raystown Weekend

The host was responsive, helpful, and very accommodating to our needs. The property has a ton of space to play yard games. We set up a volleyball net and played kickball. If you want a five star place to stay, this is it!!

Perfect Weekend

This was our second stay at this location and, if possible, it was even better than our first. There are no words to describe the view in the fall and there was abundance of parking and lawn space. The view from the fire pit beats any television show - we literally just enjoyed ourselves outside for hours. Inside, the place is immaculate and comfortable, with plenty of blankets and linens.

Beautiful home with spectacular views!

I stayed at the property with several family members. Everyone was blown away by the view! Unfortunately it rained so we weren't able to enjoy it to the fullest which was a bummer. The house is very large with plenty of space for a big group, It was also spotlessly clean. Would definitely recommend this property!

Beautiful property and setting

Our family of sixteen had a wonderful time at this spacious, beautiful lodge high on the mountain overlooking Raystown Lake. The views are stunning and almost every room has windows facing the lake. The lodge is outfitted with everything you might need and many extras too such as chairs and tables, linens, yard games, grills, etc. The owners expressed a generous spirit in ways we haven't encountered before in our rental experiences. We were blessed to enjoy this lovely lodge and would love to return!

Wow!! This home was more then we imagined it would be. Gorgeous views from every direction. The home was clean, beautiful and specious for the 12 adults that were here. Very well stock with everything we needed. Communication with homeowners was a breeze, we have already booked again for next fall. You will not be disappointed in booking this beautiful cabin!!

Awesome lake house

Absolutely amazing house. It was clean and has everything you would ever need. Plenty of space inside and outside. The view over looking the lake was incredible. Even the fire pit was awesome. The owner was very accessible and responded immediately to questions. There were 16 of us and never felt crowded. Specious kitchen with all the amenities. Wonderfully decorated. Love this house.

Perfect for family reunion

The house has stunning views of Raystown lake from the upper and lower decks and every bedroom. We were treated to a double rainbow over the lake after a dramatic storm. We enjoyed the hot tub, fire pit, and yard games. The spacious house is well appointed and the host is very helpful and accommodating. We spent two days at the Seven Points Beach and visitor center. The trail to Rainbow falls and Balanced Rock at Trough Creek State Park were also fun.

Beyond Perfection

Our stay exceeded expectations! The property was immaculate, the location breathe taking, the amenities were of highest quality. It was private, tranquil yet at the same time family centric with horse shoe pit, games and fire pit for smores and drinks for the adults. Access to boating, state park, local gyms and water sports was a short distance away, approximately 20 + minutes Mike the owner was a text away if we ever needed him, which we didn't! Just knowing he was minutes away, added to our peace of mind. This is a destination we will continue to visit. We are planning for a fall experience! Strongly recommend. Thank you Mike for the "BEST" vacation my family and I experienced together.

Our 3-day stay at the Eagle Mountain cabin was absolutely fantastic! The cabin was cozy, well-equipped, and surrounded by beautiful nature—exactly what we needed. We had so much fun reconnecting and relaxing, and our reunion with friends was filled with joy and laughter. This getaway gave us memories we’ll cherish forever.
