Clean, comfy and accommodating
We had a wonderful stay. We were in the area for our daughter’s graduation from Penn State. We stayed in the RV which had all the comforts of home-cozy chairs, a roomy dining area, and comfortable beds. We had a problem with the lock when we first arrived and the owner immediately replied to our query and fixed the issue. We appreciated the very reasonable price-particularly during a time when hotels in State College were asking for hundreds of dollars to a thousand dollars a night. We would definitely recommend this location and if we find ourselves in need of accommodations in the area, we would stay again.

We stayed In the Cozy Cottage with Sauna. It was super cute and was great for a little getaway. Check in was super easy. would stay here again. You can tell the owners love this property and are doing a lot of upgrades to it. If you walk around you will find they have chickens and goats.

Beautiful Cabin
Had a great time at the Cabins this was our 2nd visit. Everyone is super nice and accommodating. We needed more towels and they were brought up immediately. Family stayed next door and they were equally as happy. Zero complaints aside from the fridged cold but that’s not their fault!

Great stay
The trip was wonderful. The room was clean and comfortable. The only issue was the temperature in the room. Not sure how insulated it is but it was really cold outside so did not get warm enough inside. There were a variety of blankets to keep warm though.

The view was spectacular! The grounds and camper were very clean. Allows for a quiet and comfortable experience. The amenities in the camper we rented were fantastic! They thought of everything! Our only complaint would be the bed. It was much to firm for our liking. For our second night stay we slept on the fold out sofa instead of the bed. We would highly recommend anyone staying at this facility!

My husband and I rented the 1BR tiny home cabin, and we LOVED our stay. It was our first time visiting Bellefonte, and I didn’t want to stay in a hotel. This was the perfect getaway with much better offerings than a hotel! The cabin came equipped with so many thoughtful amenities, highlights included: WiFi, smart TVs in both the livingroom and bedroom, a comfy bed, a fully-equipped kitchen (induction stove, fridge/freezer, microwave, coffee machine dishware, drinkware, pots and pans, dish soap, sponge, and paper towels), spacious bathroom (had makeup remover towels and robes - such nice additions) AND our very own hot tub!!! The campground is well-maintained, it’s nice and quiet, and the cabin is giving modern with a woodsy feel. I kept saying during our stay how much I wished we booked this place longer.
Other notes: Check-in/out was easy. Well worth the price! Thanks so much for hosting us. We will be back!
