Family holiday

We stayed here for a long Easter weekend while visiting grandparents and used the house to host Easter dinner. It was the perfect setting for our Easter egg hunt and made everyone feel comfortable and at home. We enjoyed building a fire out back and cooking in the large kitchen. The house had everything we needed and the host was wonderful to book with.

Raystown Adventure

This is our second year in a row staying at this beautiful property. I can't say enough wonderful things! From the moment we walked in, it felt like home. Clean, well-stocked, and just a great place for friends and family to hang out after a fun day on the trails. The outdoor fireplace is my personal favorite! The owners are incredibly nice and responsive. We will be back next year. Thank you!

About the host

Hosted by Larry and Dana Bradford

We live in Washington DC. My wife wanted water and I wanted mountains. We found the best of both worlds within 3 hours of home. We fell in love with the area and bought this property years ago and then built the current home a year or so later. We hope you enjoy as much as we do.

This family picture was taken at Lincoln Caverns at New Years several years ago.

Blessings,
The Bradfords

Why they chose this property

We absolutely love this rural part of the country. Allows us to enjoy the mountains and the water at the same time!

What makes this property unique

On beautiful summer days it is always on the lake or a local creek area that we enjoy. On cold or rainy days it is a trip in town to the old time candy store followed by a trip to the early 1900s movie theater (See if you can find the Allegrippis Lodge Plaque in Theatre 2) .
