Our daughter was graduating and this was a great location for our stay. Close to the college but in a lovely quiet neighborhood. The place is very nice with lots of room to spread out and the yard is beautiful. The owners were even kind enough to leave a bottle of wine congratulating our daughter. I would definitely recommend!
The house was amazing! Convenient to PSU, but like a little quiet getaway from the busy college area. The house and back yard had so much to do and enjoy. The owners were great to communicate with and everything was as described. Will definitely try and stay here again!
The place was perfect for us! We had 3 couples visiting kids for a football weekend! Plenty of space and very comfy. Thanks again! We’ll definitely book again!
We rented the place to go to the Penn State game that weekend. It was really close to PSU, was in a great neighborhood, very cozy, and had great amenities! Would definitely come back again!
3rd year staying at this home. As always super clean, all amenities, very responsive hosts. Great location to Beaver Stadium and PSU campus. Always our 1st goto when staying in State College. Highly recommend!!
Extremely spacious multi room lower floor of the house. Fully equipped kitchen, full windows and sliding glass door to a beautiful and scenic backyard. Hosts were great, communicative and helpful. The rental exceeded our expectations!
3rd stay at this amazing accommodation. Great owners and communicate well. Great location for everything PSU. Super clean and fully stocked kitchen for cooking and meal prep. Plenty of space for sleeping and full entertainment area. Outside amenities are amazing with great sunsets!! Highly recommend this VRBO.
This gem of a property is spacious, clean and in an excellent location - just a 5 min drive to Beaver stadium. We have rented this place several times. It's our go-to rental when we visit PSU.
With close proximity to the stadium and accommodations for a large group, plus the great price, this is the best deal for a weekend game trip. The listing was accurate with great amenities, very spacious and clean. It had everything needed to have a home feel. Very easy communication, hosts share the property above the space but you wouldn't know it, there was plenty of privacy and the area is quiet. Would definitely stay again.
We rented for my daughter's graduation from PSU! It was our first time not staying in a hotel. The location was close to the campus. The property was in a nice neighborhood and the grounds were beautiful. Plenty of amenities inside and outside as well. Hosts always responded to our questions in a timely manner. Plenty of space for a family to spread out and not be on top of one another. The extra space also allowed us to have a few people over to celebrate. My daughter and her friends enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub after graduation! Would definitely stay again!
This is 2nd time staying. Excellent property and very clean. Stocked with everything you will need for weekend stay. The host was excellent and communicated very well. Location is great to get to PSU campus and stadium. Highly recommend for any PSU events.
So comfortable and cozy for a quick weekend in State College....ideal for a football game. I imagine it would be great for a graduation weekend. Something to consider a few years from now! We all enjoyed our stay very much
Our first time using VEBO and our stay and accommodations exceeded our expectations! The home had everything to offer to make you feel at home but also spoiled by all that the property offered its guest. A beautiful yard with outdoor activities or just to sit and enjoy the beautiful peacefulness of the morning and night.
We would definitely book this property again and only wish we had already done so for our upcoming stays this fall.
This was the most well supplied kitchen we have ever had in a rental for over 30 years! Home was comfortable, extremely clean. Towels and bedding supplied. Really a wonderful site. Only minutes away from PSU.
This rental was excellent! Everything you could need from towels and linens to coolers and beer cozies. Beautiful and clean with very interesting and well presented decor.
This VRBO was excellent. Great communication from owners about how to check in, parking, etc. The property was immaculate and exceeded our expectations. Everything was provided; Linens, towels, full kitchen and great entertainment areas. Great location as campus and stadium were approx 5 -10 mins. drive. North end location near Toft Tress and easy drive to Champs and surrounding shopping as needed. Highly recommend and we will stay here for future Penn State trips!!
