Raystown Lake, Reservoir and recreation area in Pennsylvania, United States.

Raystown Lake stretches across 8,300 acres with 27 miles of water surface, making it the largest lake completely within Pennsylvania's borders.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers constructed Raystown Lake in 1973 through the Flood Control Act to manage water resources and prevent flooding.

The lake serves as a central gathering point for regional events, seasonal festivals, and environmental education programs throughout the year.

Seven Points Marina provides boat rentals, fuel services, and maintenance facilities for visitors exploring the lake's extensive waterways.

The lake contains numerous underwater structures and deep channels, creating specialized habitats for large striped bass and other fish species.
