The Details

Originally built in 1954 and fully revitalized in 2022 after two decades of vacancy, this popular resort is a serene escape nestled along 650 feet of private Juniata River frontage. Now considered new construction, over 90% of the resort has been rebuilt to modern code, with the addition of a second story Host’s Loft - ideal for a private residence or luxury rental, featuring a full sprinkler system. The boutique campground near the river is perfect for family getaways, while the adult-focused Guest Lodge provides abundant amenities and panoramic views. The Lodge offers 12 well-appointed guest rooms: five with two queen beds, one ADA-compliant room with Twin XL beds, and six with king beds. Seven bathrooms have been completely renovated, while five preserve charming vintage tub/shower combos favored by returning guests. Six spacious, shaded riverfront camp lots provide 30A and 110A electric, fire rings, picnic tables, and access to a rustic, open-air shower house. Seasonally open from May through September, the resort draws a growing guest base each year, attracted by its tranquil atmosphere. Amenities include riverside decks and steps, two fire pits, fishing pier, kayak/swimming launch, two shower houses, and a communal outdoor kitchen stocked with tableware and cooking essentials. Filtered water refill stations and 24/7 coffee and tea service enhance guest comfort. Guests enjoy outstanding birdwatching, stargazing, and smallmouth bass fishing, along with popular kayak and tube floats. The resort welcomes visitors from major metro areas including Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C. Opportunities for expansion include activating a hotel liquor license, adding restaurant service, introducing alternative lodging (yurts, treehouses, etc.), or developing event spaces for weddings and reunions. There's also potential for a coffee shop or bistro, and ample space for a pool or hot tub. Included in the sale: a loyal guestbook, active Airbnb listing, integrated website with booking software, Facebook page, professional media (photos, videos, drone footage), and fully furnished, guest-ready rooms with linens, robes, toiletries, and dining sets. Located adjacent to American Legion Country Club Golf Course and near local attractions like Raystown Lake, Amish Country, and East Broad Top Railroad, this resort is a turn-key opportunity with proven growth and unique appeal.
