Great cabin with breathtaking view
Scattered family met here for Thanksgiving. We all enjoyed ourselves! 10 adults, 4 small kids, & a dog. We had plenty of room & things to do. Nicely stocked kitchen. The fire pit had nice benches & wood to burn although the description says it does not. We took different routes to & from the cabin & none of them were treacherous. The lake view is incredible! And a Christmas tree was there. Nice!

Get-away weekend with family
The view is unmatched. The house fit 10 people comfortably. The bathroom on the second level did not have a shower, only bath tub and the toilet in the basement flooded x2 from underneath the sealant of the base of the toilet. The pipes must have been partially occluded because when you would flush, it would slowly leak out. There was water damage in that bathroom, so it seemed as tbough this might have happened before. For us, this took away a shower/toilet and then shower on second level. So we had to share essentially 2 showers and 3 toilets between 10 people. There are also not any washcloths provided. We thlight there were pull-out couches, but there are not any. That could have been us misunderstanding the website description. Aside from this, the house was great. There was plenty of seating for everyone and it did feel clean. We all enjoyed the house and our stay. The game room in the basement was so much fun as well. Overall, we would recommend this place, but maybe for smaller groups (not 20).

Log House
First impression was breathtaking. The view and the house it self is so well define that no words can describe it. I wish we had more time to stay cause 2 days isn’t enough. The drive to the house is treacherous if you do not have the proper vehicle. But it was one of the joys for us when we drove over there, it reminded me of my country back in the days. Thank you so much for this experience and will definitely come again.

Beautiful location
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Crown Jewel Vista! The view is the first thing that strikes you--there is no way photos can do it justice! The place was large and accommodated our group of nine very nicely. There was enough stuff to do with the deck, fire pit, pool table, multiple televisions, etc. It served as a good starting point for our exploration of the Raystown Lake area. Plenty to do in the area for sure, including hiking, great food, and lake activities. My main suggestion for the property would be to add a hottub or a pool as that would have been amazing to relax in after a fun long day!

Family Christmas vacation January 2022
We had a great time. The cabin is beautiful and the view of the lake is awesome! Bonus…The owners left the Christmas tree up for us. The configuration of the beds/bedrooms was perfect for our family. The basement was a perfect hangout room for the dogs, the kids, and even the grownups. We all said that we would stay there again.

Family vacation with grown children :)
This property was a great size for 12 adults and 2 dogs. We had plenty of room to spread out if need be. A shower in the 4th bathroom would of been helpful for the bedrooms on the top floor. Updated mattresses would also be a plus along with a few hand towels for the bathrooms. House was clean and obviously had an awesome view. High speed internet would be nice to have as many people have to put in a few hours of work while on vacation. In this instance one member of my family drove to the great local public library for high speed internet for a work presentation. We would absolutely stay here again!!

Fantastic view but needs some updating
The view and the decor were all appropriate for a mountain retreat but the house hasn't been kept up well enough for the price we paid. The cons: Kitchen is dated and carpet that is tripping hazard should be removed (it is taped down in places). Kitchen also needed to be cleaned better before we arrived. I ended up cleaning and sanitizing the whole thing. The roller shades in the bedrooms were mostly broken or not installed properly. They are essential since the sun comes in all the windows. The locks on bathroom and bedroom doors either didn't exist or work properly. Furniture was dusty too. Master sink had a slow leak. The deck really needs to be stripped and repainted. There is a carpenter bee problem. Mattresses were not comfortable at all! The maintenance man showed up twice in one week in a back hoe to collect water. It was very disruptive and we were not informed. The pros: The view is just stunning. It is very quiet and private. You can't even see another house. Lots of wildlife to be spotted on the road when coming and going. Great fire pit outside. We really enjoyed that. (It wasn't cold enough to use the fireplace inside.) The leather furniture in the living room was really nice as well in the basement. The rough hewn logs in the ceiling were a perfect accent. There was also lots of space for our group of 12 to sit and eat or to relax and play games indoors and out. The Seven Points Marina and beach area were great. Only 40 minutes away. We rented a pontoon boat and had a blast. The ice cream at the Seven Points Bait and Grocery was delicious! We also explored Lincoln Caverns and did some hiking. Shopping at Giant and Walmart were also 30 minutes away. Be sure to check out the Amish market too. They had the best baked goods and freshest produce.
