Less than half a mile to State Game Lands No. 80 and minutes to Swatara State Park, this rural vacation rental serves as a great starting point for any desire of outdoor adventure. Take in a beautiful lake view backed by mountains and surrounded by trees while you kick-start the fire pit, cook dinner on the grill, or lounge on the patio as time comes to a standstill.

This lake house was truly a great find. Check in was a breeze, the cleanliness, overall choice of finishes including floors, cabinets countertops and appliances were excellent. Furniture, beds and layout was perfect for us. The location is excellent for feeling away from it all but actually within minutes of conveniences. I met Sal and he was very considerate and responsive. Happy I chose this house even without reviews. Wouldn't hesitate to stay here again and planning on it soon.
