About this property

Gingerbread Chalet- Raystown- Shy Beaver

Once upon a time, nestled deep within a mystical woods, there stood a fairytale house that seemed to have sprung right out of the pages of a storybook. This enchanting abode was the embodiment of whimsy and magic, capturing the hearts of all who were lucky enough to stumble upon it.
But what truly captured the imagination was the spiral staircase. The staircase seemed to have a life of its own, twisting and turning upwards with a sense of joyful anticipation. Climbing up the spiral staircase led you to a charming catwalk, where two bedrooms awaited, each exuding a sense of comfort and coziness that only a fairytale could provide.
Downstairs, a main bedroom awaited, complete with a grand king-sized bed that looked as though it belonged to royalty. There is also a bunk room, designed with the imagination of children in mind, housing a twin over queen bunk bed with a trundle.
Yet, the true heart of this magical house lay beyond its walls. Just a stone's throw away, a detached game room and bar area stood, a place where laughter and merriment flowed freely. Inside, a billiards table stood proudly, inviting friendly competitions. The bar held a promise of delightful conversations. A seating area offered a place to relax and share tales, while a full bathroom ensured that comfort was never far away. For those who wished to stay the night, sleeping accommodations for four were provided.
The house itself is a generous host, accommodating up to 18 souls who sought refuge within its walls. The kitchen, fully stocked and ready for culinary adventures, stands as a testament to the joy of sharing food and stories. And just outside, an outdoor fire pit waits patiently, offering a place for stories to be woven into the fabric of the night.
Perched near the shy beaver boat launch at Raystown Lake, this fairytale house is a haven for those seeking both adventure and respite. It is a place where the line between reality and enchantment blurred, a place where friendships are forged, and memories are etched into the tapestry of time.
And so, the fairytale house in the woods stood as a testament to the enduring magic of stories, the power of imagination, and the capacity of a simple dwelling to become a cherished part of countless journeys and tales yet to be told.
