About this property
4 Bedroom, 2.5 Bath, Historic Home, 2 mins. to Raystown Lake!
Come to LAKE_TIME and enjoy a CLEAN and COMFORTABLE stay in this charming historic home in James Creek. This 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath has been completely renovated with a modern, fully equipped kitchen, new hybrid mattresses, bedding, outfitted with new and antique furniture.
Relax and connect with family and friends in the open layout of the kitchen, dining and living areas and retreat to uncluttered bedrooms to rest and recharge. Enjoy the pressed concrete patio, covered gazebo with seating and fire pit out back. Thoughtful design creates spaces for you to make your own memories, not be reminded that you're renting "someone else's" home.
The house is 1/2 mi to Aitch boat launch on Raystown Lake and a short drive to town and services. It is less than a 10 minute drive to both Seven Points and Raystown Resort.
Join us for a PSU home football game and spend the weekend at the house, as it is just under an hour from the stadium. The house is perfect for two families to share, making it a great place to meet and enjoy together.

About the host
Hosted by Mary Hughes
Hello! We're your hosts, Dan and Mary Hughes. We are from Central Pennsylvania and have been enjoying the Raystown Lake region for over 30 years. Whether camping or making day trips, the love for the tranquility and clear, deep waters of the lake keep us returning year after year. Both are Penn Staters and avid college football fans.
Our love for the area has led to the acquisition of this special home and we are excited to share it with you!
