Perfect location for State College weekend

We had a wonderful stay at this home. The hosts created an amazing home away from home. The house is so comfortable and nicely decorated. Our group of ages 11 to 60 were all happy. We didn't want to leave. Thank you for everything!

Great home for families

This gorgeous home sits minutes from Penn State’s Main campus. The homes recent renovations and updates are amazing! From linens, to cookware, games, toys, books, beautiful game room, spa like master bath, perfectly folded towels, and pristine linens this family has thought of it all. The cleanliness of this home was impeccable. We enjoyed our stay in this home to the fullest. Our group of 10 year olds said “it was their dream home”. The owners responded quickly to our questions and solved our inability to open the virtual guest/home welcome manual quickly. The only suggestion I would have is to have a hard copy of the guest manual in the home, perhaps with the great selection of books available for your reading pleasure. If we are ever in the area again, we will definitely check to see if this home is available for our stay.
