House in the Trees
Welcome to the House in the Trees, a peaceful woodland retreat less than two miles from Beaver Stadium. Nestled on 1.3 wooded acres overlooking Slab Cabin Run, our home offers the relaxing feel of a forest getaway while keeping you less than 10 minutes from downtown State College and Penn State University.
The Space
This recently remodeled ranch-style home is built into the hillside and filled with windows that bring the beauty of the surrounding woods indoors. Comfortable plank flooring runs throughout, and the uncluttered interior offers a clean, welcoming place to relax.
One of the highlights is the spacious cantilevered deck, perfect for morning coffee, an afternoon unwinding beneath the trees, or listening to the creek below.
The home is handicap accessible, and well-behaved dogs are welcome.

Guest Interaction
As a proud Penn Stater and longtime State College resident, I want you to feel right at home during your visit. You may be greeted by me or a member of my family, or you may check in using the home's secure entry code.
If you need anything during your stay, we're only a phone call away and live just a short distance from the house.
