Loved this place! Close to the lake, lots of separate rooms for a bit of separation, great outdoor space and everything you could possibly need inside and outside. Would definitely stay again!

Fantastic Lake House
Everything about the stay was great. The house was very clean and well maintained. The beds were comfortable, and their was plenty of space to spread out and relax. The deck and backyard were very nice too. Dave, the property owner, was extremely helpful and responsive. It's a short walk to the water, and a short drive to the marina/main body lake. The property is also nice and private/quiet. Definitely a great time!

great home for our family with little ones. The home was well—equipped and we didn’t want for anything. It had laundry, dish & bath soaps; spices etc. The owner was very easy to work with. You couldn’t really walk to the lake since it was marshy. We were in close driving distance to Seven Points though. A negative was that we had to pick up the previous renters dog waste & the deck steps were a little tricky for us Wonderful home & yard with views.

Great location Raystown Lake
Just got back from a 4 night stay here. Great location to the lake. My Grandson loves to fish and caught a nice bass down at the cove down the road. Drive to Seven Points marina was quick. Really enjoyed the house which was very clean and comfortable. Kitchen has more than everything you need. Nice deck and yard. Will definitely stay there again if we return to the lake.

Perfect!
This is the perfect place for us, between Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, to get together with family. The house is all that's advertised and then some. Very clean, comfortable and conveniently located. Kitchen has everything you need to feed the family. We rented a pontoon boat for a day. The next day the younger family members rented jet skis. We checked out some local restaurants and played cards in the evening. We all had a great time, and the dogs enjoyed it too! At Raystown Lake, we wouldn't stay anywhere else but here.

A Perfect Getaway
Sunny Acres is a beautiful property. The amenities were great, and we appreciated the attention to detail. Everything was labeled and easy to find. Our dogs loved the backyard. We stayed here for Penn State graduation. It's only about an hour from State College. The weather was terrible, so we plan to come back sometime in the future. There are so many outdoor activities to do near Raystown Lake. Thank you, David and Sunny!

James Creek home
We wanted to come to PA to visit family who live in Bellwood and go to Harvestfest at Delgrosso’s Amusement Park in Tipton. This James Creek house is absolutely beautiful and worked perfectly for our family. Unfortunately, the weather did not cooperate and we could not take advantage of all that the house has to offer. Thank you for opening up your home to us.

Located on a secluded property with room for dogs to roam. Water access was a short walk. Beautiful spacious home. Communication with owner was A+. Has everything you need. Recommendation would be an outdoor plug to charge boat, the outdoor barn plug did not work. Would highly recommend!

This home has so many conveniences, very well organized and clean. So many places to relax. Family room has puzzles and games to enjoy when you come back from your day at the lake. We cooked dinner everyday and the kitchen is extremely well stocked and labeled. Also used the outdoor propane grill and enjoyed nights at the fire pit. What a great vacation rental!
