Great spot for PSU
My friends and I stayed at John’s while visiting Penn State for the weekend. It’s an easy 30 minutes to campus and was perfect for our group! Would definitely go back.

My family stayed for the White Out game. The only bad part about the weekend was the outcome of the game. The place was very clean and comfortable. We would totally stay here again. Very easy drive to PSU. THANK YOU JOHN!

Amazing location and great accomodations
This wonderful house is about 25 minutes from PSU but in the most beautiful rural setting. The views from the front of the house are spectacular. The owner made us feel at home the moment we arrived, we found the pellet stove already on and warming the house for us. The owners thoughtfully had so many little touches around the house that truly made us feel welcomed. I definitely recommend staying here and we will be back for our next visit to Happy Valley .
