Private House close to Penn State Campus with the feeling of home
Just 12 minutes away from downtown, this three bedroom one bath house is the absolute perfect place for a family or a group of friends heading to State College.
In addition to plenty of room for guests to relax, the Stately Lion (it's what I named the house) also features a big backyard with a fire pit and if you think the way I do, a good campfire completes any weekend. Additionally, the front yard is fenced in, giving you a nice space to let your pets roam, if you bring them.
The house is on conveniently located on Route 322, which enables you to be close enough without the hassle of traffic getting out of SC.
The house has a full kitchen, living room, laundry room (in the "mudroom"), a full basement with a pool table, foosball, and other games, and a Nintendo Emulator in the living room.
The kitchen is fully stocked with tea, coffee, sugar, etc. All of the pots and pans you can imagine and even a KitchenAid, in case you want to bake.
There is AC (for the summer, great heat and an electric fireplace for the winter), WiFi, and a washer and dryer. Each bedroom has a wireless charger and an Alexa.
I'm an animal lover and know how sometimes we just can't leave our furry friends at home. Pets are welcome, if you're unsure if your pet would be allowed, please reach out. (small fee does apply)
The property does have a security system for your added protection (cameras shut off during the stay). For even more security, each guest receives a unique code good only for the duration of the stay.
This is our home away from home and we want you to feel just the same. Like you're home, at PSU. However, parties are not allowed.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

About the host
Hosted by Virginia Feinman
I'm a Penn State grad who fell in love, as most of us do, with the school and more importantly the family the school created. It was always my dream to have a house at PSU because after I graduated, I would find it so hard to find a good place to stay, that didn't break the bank. I want to try to pay it forward, so to speak, by giving a great place, at a good price.
What makes this property unique
Although the house is on a "main" road, it's quiet and has the feel of being in the woods, away from the Big City. It's a wonderful area which always leaves me feeling relaxed and refreshed.
