We were return guests this year, and the house was just as excellent as our previous stay. The home is meticulously cared for and setup thoughtfully so as to be perfect for guests.
Aaron was a fantastic host. My car broke down and Aaron brought over tools to help. He also provided very helpful fishing advice.The house is beautiful and has a great location. Fire pit (with wood supplied) is right along the river.
This is our third stay at this property and as usual it was perfect. There is so much to do locally, but it is always nice just to sit and enjoy this peaceful place on the Little Juniata.
We had such a great, relaxing weekend at the Little Juniata River House. Most of our time was spent fishing right out the back door, which was such a treat. We came with no plans and no expectations, just the hope to relax—and we left feeling refreshed and recharged. We already are making plans for a return visit.
This was our 3rd stay at the Little Juniata River House and again, it was perfect in every way! The house is lovely & the location is wonderful! Every minute, peaceful & relaxing. We will be back!!
This is a beautiful house with an ideal location for outdoor activities: kayaking, fishing, hiking, lots of room for six indoors and out. We loved sitting around the fire pit by the waters edge. Highly recommend!
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.
RiverHouse is perfect retreat for wonderful times fishing on the Little J, hiking in Rothrock, and nights by the fire. Will definately stay here again and again.
We have stayed here before and have loved it both times. This property is well maintained, nicely furnished and the kitchen is superbly equipped. You will not find a better fishing location with excellent access to State College. You dont need to bring a thing as rhe owners provide everything!
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!
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!
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
