Travelled with family and needed a place with three bedrooms. The home was absolutely fantastic and very comfortable. The owner left so many little accommodations that made it feel like home away from home. Stayed one night, and the area was pleasant with many restaurants accessible. Quiet neighborhood and easy to find. I would absolutely stay again.

Best kept secret

This place was amazing. The host gave snacks and a bottle of Sangria. It was close to everything and not far from Penn State and where my daughter was moving into. Would stay again. They even supplies coffee, creamer, shampoo and body wash along with laundry pods. Would rent again!

Lovely neighborhood

The location is ideal - in a wooded, quiet neighborhood, but close to PSU. Anything you need can be found on nearby Atherton Street. The house is comfortable and clean. We especially liked the air conditioning during the hot spell!

Wonderful place to stay

We were very happy with this lovely home. It was very clean, comfortable and nicely decorated. Lots of extras are provided making it much easier not to have to worry about bringing everything with us. Great location for all of the places we wanted to go during our short stay. Loved that it was close to a Wegmans and great restaurants. Nice walkable neighborhood that was very quiet. Great communication with the owner. Always happy to find pet friendly places. Thanks so much for a wonderful stay.

Lovely and cozy home

The owner was helpful, had recommendations for me as far as restaurants and things to do. The property is in one of the residential areas in State College and super close to Walmart, Trader Joe’s and Penn State. A wonderful token welcomed my sisters and I, bottle of sangria and a basket with power bars and candy, wonderful and thoughtful touch!

Nice and Comfortable

We recently stayed here (Jan. 26-28). The place feels bigger than what it actually is. We felt right at home. Our host was gracious. No issues with anything. About a 5 minute drive to center of State College which was awesome. Plenty of restaurants and shopping options nearby. We will definitely try to book this place again, next time we are in the area.

Quaint, cozy and perfect for our weekend visit!

Visiting our PSU graduate student for the weekend and this home was a perfect getaway. It was nice to be able to have our daughter and her friend over to play some games and get away from their apartments and rigors of grad/lab work. The hosts were incredibly thoughtful, welcoming and the house was super clean, and had all the comforts of home. While we were visiting, we even got 3+inches of snow. The hosts were over first thing to take care of snow removal and make sure we were taken care of. We will stay here again and look forward to it!
