Good Neighbors - Raystown Lake Recreation Area
We want everyone to know about one very special neighbor of The Gage Mansion B&B…Raystown Lake. This fantastic recreational complex offers a variety of opportunities for relaxation, outdoor adventures and memory making moments by the dozen! You have found your gateway to adventure, heritage, and the road less traveled. 29,000 acres of opportunity await you in the heart of the Allegheny Mountains. From the 8,300 acre man-made Raystown Lake, the country's oldest automobile museum, historic trolley rides, small-town charm, railroad history, world-class trails, underground caves, pristine trout streams and more, the Raystown Lake Region provides adventure around every bend.
When I was a child, my family had a house on a lake in Washington State. Many summers and weekends were spent playing on the small sandy beach, jumping off the end of the dock, BBQ’s on the back deck and of course…waterskiing. One of my fondest childhood memories of the lake was getting up at 5am to go fishing with my Grandpa. Thanks for teaching me how to bait a hook Grandpa…admittedly not a skill I have used again. But at least I know how and with Raystown Lake just down the road, who knows, maybe I will start practicing.
Rent some mountain bikes from Rothrock Outfitters and hit the trails. Enjoy a picnic on the sandy beaches of Seven Points or feed the fish at the marina. No matter what your favorite relaxing activity may be, we know that Raystown Lake can provide you with the best location to enjoy it.
Come build memories here in Huntingdon and ask the Innkeeper about our Picnic in the Park Package. Deluxe accommodations with a gourmet packed lunch to enjoy anywhere you would like at Raystown Lake!
Happy Adventuring!
