We stayed at the Little Juniata River house for an our daughter’s graduation from PSU and would certainly stay here again if we’re visiting State College, Huntingdon, or Raystown Lake. The owners were very responsive and the house is exactly as advertised - very clean, spacious, well furnished, and just a perfect setting along the river.
The perfect place for a long weekend! This is our family’s second stay at this beautiful cabin & we are already checking our calendars for a visit in the near future. The cabin is spotless & the location is wonderful. Such a peaceful & relaxing getaway!
We had a wonderful stay at The River House! The location was heaven for a fly fisherman’s and so beautiful with all the Fall foliage. The house was just perfect - beautifully decorated with all the necessities taken care of—- we can’t wait to visit again!
We had a great stay at the Little Juniata River House. The property had everything we needed - comfortable beds, cozy sitting areas, and a well appointed kitchen and outdoor grill for enjoying all of our meals at the house overlooking the river. It’s a peaceful setting, with a beautiful view, and a river that beckons to be fished.
This home was a wonderful respite for our family, who are avid fishers and hikers. It was as described, and better, and our host was very helpful in suggestions around the area. The personal touches were noticeable, we felt as if we were in our own home.
Our family enjoyed this cozy cabin with a spectacular view. It was clean and equipped with everything a family would need for a get away. Although not a short drive to Penn State - we would definitely chose to stay here again when visiting PSU.
This place was more than expected. The location and access to the Little Juniata river for fly fishing was awesome! The fireplace was the biggest highlight of the cabin; sitting around telling fish stories from the day past. I would highly recommend this wonderful place.
The house and property were even more beautiful than the pictures. We stayed for a long graduation weekend at PSU, and really enjoyed the calm, peaceful atmosphere and great scenery. The drive back and forth to State College was very easy. Would gladly stay at this property again!
An absolutely beautiful halfway spot to meet up with our son from North Carolina (we traveled from West Michigan) to spend a lovely weekend together. The River Cabin is immaculate & the grounds & views are wonderful. We are already checking our calendars to see when we can book again!
This is our second time staying at this cabin. Beautiful stream outside that grandchildren love! The cabin had everything you need and more. Details were obvious in every room. Fresh flowers when we arrived. We will be back!
This property is fantastic, as are the hosts. My party has chosen this location (over many others) again and again for many years (at least 4 or 5) for its features, its amenities, and the hospitality of its hosts. My group is already planning next year's reunion, and our lodging choice is without question: Little J River House.
We had such a wonderful time - the house was beautiful and definitely has everything you need. the land and river was so peaceful. We wish we could have stayed longer - Aaron was wonderful answering all of my questions
Thank you so much for sharing your lovely home with us
Great property on river bank. Lovely yard right down to river. Nice fire pit and gas grill for cooking. Very private as no close neighbors or roads. Wood burning fire place was great place to relax as was cold rain/sleet outside. Beds very comfortable.
This river house exceeds the expectations all around! Excellent location that is removed and hidden for privacy, but a 10-15 minute drive away from anything you would need. Accommodations were perfect for our family to re-connect for a few days away together. We hope to return!
We really enjoyed our stay! So relaxing and peaceful. The house was perfect! Spacious and super clean! Loved being right next to the river! We drove over to raystown lake to fish with the kids. This was super fun and the most beautiful views.
A great mini vaca
This was our third straight year staying at the house. As always, we had a great time. Fishing was a bit challenging this year with the water level but other than that, wonderful.Already looking forward to next year. Thank you
We loved our stay by the river. It was beautiful. The house was perfect. Clean and with all the ammenities one could hope for. The house was stocked with all the essentials needed. We couldn't have had a lovelier place to stay. Loved it!
