Nice - but over priced

The cabin was in a nice location, but was a little dated for the price. Some pots and pans come with the rental, but they were dirty. You get towels but no wash cloths. Pool sticks are damaged, foosball table doesn’t work. Pillows are flat.

Reunion weekend Raystown lake

The views are amazing, the house was everything we hoped for, there was plenty to do and plenty of places to just kick back and enjoy the peacefulness and the view! Love our stay there. Ages 19 through 88 and all absolutely loved our stay.

Great cabin with breathtaking view

Scattered family met here for Thanksgiving. We all enjoyed ourselves! 10 adults, 4 small kids, & a dog. We had plenty of room & things to do. Nicely stocked kitchen. The fire pit had nice benches & wood to burn although the description says it does not. We took different routes to & from the cabin & none of them were treacherous. The lake view is incredible! And a Christmas tree was there. Nice!

Family Christmas vacation January 2022

We had a great time. The cabin is beautiful and the view of the lake is awesome! Bonus…The owners left the Christmas tree up for us. The configuration of the beds/bedrooms was perfect for our family. The basement was a perfect hangout room for the dogs, the kids, and even the grownups. We all said that we would stay there again.

Definitely stay here

The view is spectacular and everything was right there for us. Hard time finding the road back to house the sign not very open to oncoming cars had to backtrack. But otherwise it was great relaxing and you will enjoy everything there is to offer.

Spectacular Vista

Chris (owner) had said the pictures don’t do it justice and promised a spectacular view, he did not over promise and under deliver. This is a must see for anyone considering it.

Beautiful location

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Crown Jewel Vista! The view is the first thing that strikes you--there is no way photos can do it justice! The place was large and accommodated our group of nine very nicely. There was enough stuff to do with the deck, fire pit, pool table, multiple televisions, etc. It served as a good starting point for our exploration of the Raystown Lake area. Plenty to do in the area for sure, including hiking, great food, and lake activities. My main suggestion for the property would be to add a hottub or a pool as that would have been amazing to relax in after a fun long day!
