About this property
The Ranch At Happy Valley
Inspired by a family trip to Montana, The Ranch at Happy Valley blends refined Western elegance with modern comfort. Nestled on 6 private acres in historic Boalsburg, enjoy walkable dining, world-class fly fishing, skiing, and a 6-mile drive to Penn State & Beaver Stadium. Thoughtfully curated furnishings and serene surroundings create a truly elevated escape.
Guests will have full access to the entire house, including all living areas, bedrooms, and outdoor spaces. Please note that the garages are not accessible during your stay.
Guests will enjoy full privacy on the property. While you’re just minutes from town, you’ll still get that authentic countryside, mountain feel—occasional visits from deer and wild turkeys included. The home is equipped with high-speed Wi-Fi, and modern comforts.
The road leading up to the ranch and the driveway are gravel and are plowed in winter. However, during snowy months, we strongly recommend a 4-wheel drive vehicle for optimal access.
