About this house rental
This home is strategically placed high up on the mountain overlooking Lake Raystown Resort just around the corner of Shy Beaver Boat Launch/Inlet. It includes 67 acres to enjoy with a 2 acre lawn for family games/activities, many of of which are provided. Whether enjoying the fire pit or hot tub overlooking the lake, or custom horseshoe pits, or just simply bird/game watching, our property will provide plenty of opportunities for recreation.
Nearly every room of the lodge, as well as the firepit, swing, and hot tub areas provide an incredible view of the lake. Included also is a massive deck facing the lake as well as a lower patio, both complete with outdoor seating. The property boasts one of the few usable lawns at nearly 2 acres level ground that would be perfect for medium-sized events. From the property there is direct access to walking/running/mountain biking/hiking trails without leaving the grounds.
The main floor includes the Master (King)Bedroom/Bath, Large living room with gas fireplace, Den, powder room, kitchen, dining room, and laundry. The upper floor contains two large bedrooms (each queen bed) with adjoining full bathrooms, pool table/game room. The lower level provides 3 bedrooms total; a kids bedroom (1 full, 3 twin), a second bedroom (queen bed), and a third bedroom (two full size beds), a full bathroom, and large living room. There is also a two car garage that can be used in the case of rain for dining and play. It is complete with gas grill, additional small kitchen appliances, fire pit cooking rack, 2 yard canopies, and an extra refrigerator. Some may be delighted to find that there is also an old fashioned ice cream maker, mountian pie irons and marshmallow/hot dog roasting sticks available to add to your activity list..
Guests may also find it convenient that there is ample cell signal at the lodge for most cellular providers. We also have wireless internet (10mbps). We have 4 flat screen TVs located in the den, master bedroom, downstairs family room and 1 guest bedroom complete with DISH network.
We provide a large number of tables and chairs, bedding, towels, paper products, and most kitchen items. We will provide an inventory list via email so guests do not overpack.
Our lane is conveniently located about a 1/4 mile from the nearest boat launch. Arrangements for boat storage can be made if bringing a boat. The storage area only 1/2 mile from the launch. Boats, paddle boards, and kayak rentals are available at Lake Raystown Resort just a few minutes away.
Our lodge is perfectly set up for medium size family/friend gatherings, reunions, showers, celebrations, and work retreats.. We are more than happy to help with the planning of these events such as finding caterers, restaurants, suggestions for party rental stores, etc.
Our past guests will tell you that the view of the Lake with 40 miles of expanse, cannot be justified with photos. We are set apart from ALL other Raystown Lake rentals because of our unique view (trees have been cleared 50 yards on the hill facing the Lake enhancing the view), punctual customer service (local), and very complete kitchen amenities, an assortment of yard games, 67 acres of private trails, provided firewood, paper products, cleaning supplies, and detergents. Guests literally need only to bring clothing and food to have a great time!
We hold cleanliness in high regard and do our best to make sure everything is maintained and in proper working condition (if for some reason it is not, we can be contacted immediately and we will see that the problem is resolved).
Special accommodations, kitchen items, child needs, and furniture can be arranged by letting the owners know.
Renter must be 24 years old to book. Maximum number of occupants is 20 unless special arrangements are made. Please no pets. NO LARGE FRAT STYLE PARTIES!

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!!

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!

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.

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!

Words do not describe. As the previous reviewers state the views are amazing and the pictures do not do justice. The home is full of zen and was comfortable for hosting family and friends for a birthday party. The host was always quick to respond and super helpful!

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.

10.0 / 10.0
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.

Everything was perfect. View was amazing. House was gorgeous. Everyone had a wonderful time. It was a very relaxing weekend.
10.0 / 10.0
The stay was truly magical. The house is incredibly gorgeous with breathtaking views. I came with a group of 14 friends, we did yoga in the mornings in front of the giant floor to ceiling windows, group meals on the deck, and ended with a bbq at the fire pit. The house was super well equipped, except for toiletries, do not forget that.
For me the best part was the cleanliness of it all, especially the kitchen and bathrooms. I felt as relaxed as being in a 4 star hotel.
I've already begun the search for a similar place for next year but this location has set the bar so high that I think I'll have to come back despite the 3hr drive.
Mike is also extremely respondent, before and during the trip.

Myself and a large group of my friends gathered for my 39th birthday and we had the best time. Place is great and extremely spacious. The view of the lake from the deck is absolutely spectacular and the listing photos don’t do it justice. There was shortage of activities and games to play. Mike reached out before my stay and had everything we could possibly stay. Amazing stay and great host!!

I stayed there for three days but I wish it could've been forever. It's so peaceful and the view was breathtaking, looking at it on a photo and actually being there was like night and day. There were so many little details in the property that made the stay a little more special. Mike covered all bases when it comes to pleasing his guests, he was so accommodating and very easy to talk to. I drove 4 hours to get to this property but I plan on doing it again soon because the experience was so amazing and absolutely worth every hour of that drive.
Thank you for an awesome weekend Mike!!

We had an amazing stay in James Creek. The home was very comfortable. We had everything we needed in the kitchen to prep big family meals. The views from the house were beautiful and we enjoyed hiking and relaxing by the fire pit. The owner, Mike, was wonderful and very accommodating. We look forward to another stay!

We had a great time at this property. The views are UNBELIEVABLE and the house was in great condition and cleanliness upon arrival. The host was very responsive to any concerns and reached out a few times to ensure our stay was going smoothly which was appreciated. The amount of yard game activities and some toys, baby crib, etc already provided was a great bonus as we didn't have to pack nearly as much. I would definitely recommend for any family looking to get away into the hills!

Magical Lake Retreat
There are not enough accolades to bestow on this one of a kind property and the owner! My husband and I knew immediately that we wanted to get married at Raystown Lake - a very special place for us. We had always camped here and never thought to explore the houses overlooking the lake but once we did - we knew immediately that the Eagle Mountain Lodge was our spot! It had ample lush lawn space for the ceremony and views of the lake for miles! The house is exactly as pictured (and better!) and created such an up-scale log cabin feel!
The house is at the end of the road and the whole property gives the feel that you are on top of a mountain all by yourselves. It is an absolute oasis!
There was literally something for everyone here - from the pool/game room to the hot tub overlooking the lake, to the huge kitchen with everything you need (minus the food).
The owner was fantastic with communicating and was able to accommodate a few of our special requests that literally made the wedding everything we could have hoped for and more!
We will absolutely come back time and time again to this magical retreat! We cannot say thank you enough for helping us to have the most special week of our lives!

Family Football Reunion Weekend
The house was everything we needed for our family reunion weekend: breath taking views of the lake, multiple beds and baths, large stocked kitchen with table for 10 & outdoor table for 6, large outdoor fire pit with wood, extra outdoor chairs and supplies in the garage ... too many thoughtfully details to list. The house is remote, but the location adds a touch of tranquility and peacefulness to the stay. Recommend highly!

Loved this spacious home in the clouds
Our family of 11 very much enjoyed our week at this spacious and comfortable home. The single lane road up to the house was much longer than we anticipated and could be a real challenge in winter. Both the house and the property are beautiful and well cared for. Once up that hill, the house and the view were even better than the pictures led us to believe. I thought that the many trophy animals throughout the lodge would be off putting to at least some of us, but they were not and we really came to especially like Mr. Moose. The lower level was too cold for night 1, until those sleeping there figured out to close the air ducts and we set the temp on level 2 a bit higher than 75. Extra blankets (and pillows and towels) were available in the master bedroom closet.
Everything we needed was there in sufficient supply for our full stay. Mike sends an extensive inventory that helped us avoid overpacking--but there were things available at the house that were not on the inventory (facial tissue, kitchen wraps, and a variety of spices for example). A large pantry closet is available in the kitchen for storing your food supplies and there is an extra refrigerator in the garage. Lots of closet and drawer space in the bedrooms. The atmosphere was so conducive to interacting and relaxing that we never even got around to many of the things we had planned to do. The view was incredible--in particular the sunrises and being able to look across at and down on the clouds after a storm. Hot tub was convenient to use and enjoyed by a number of us.
Mike answered questions before our arrival promptly and provided great information about the home, an inventory of the things that are available there, and recommendations about the area. Wonderful home!! Would love to visit again.

Unbelievable views
This house was perfect for a couples weekend. When you walk out back to see the lake, it’s literally breathtaking. We would stay again for sure! The yard was big and well maintained and there was also enough driveway space to bring a few boats. The house fit 20 of us comfortably.

Amazing one of a kind property
I've experienced Raystown Lake many times while camping as a young child, boating with my family, and various visits as an adult, but never have I experienced the lake like this! The Eagle Mountain Lodge was a unique experience. There are very few properties that overlook the lake and offer such a spectacular view not the mention the private location. The spacious inside is decorated in an upscale lodge decor... custom solid wood furniture, real taxidermy mounts of everything from bears to moose, antler mug holders, comfy leather sofas, rock fireplaces, etc. The view of the lake was breathtaking both inside and out from the bedrooms to the kitchen and even the firepit and hot tub. My family and I enjoyed morning coffee on the deck watching the wildlife overlooking the lake. Days were filled with boating at the nearby marina. At night, we gathered by the campfire and cooked hot dogs and mountain pies. A wonderful way to reconnect with family in a luxurious and peaceful setting. My girls were thrilled to find edible berries and a walking trail behind the house. Every room was complete with supplies to keep us beyond comfortable. I don't have young children anymore but I was impressed that they even thought of gates at the stairways and matching children's tables and highchairs for infants and toddlers. It was obvious that the owners thought about every need of their guests. Mike contacted me promptly and was available for questions and recommendations throughout our stay. I highly recommend this house and look forward to staying there again! WOW!!!
