About this property

Beautiful home with perfect location for EBT and train enthusiasts!

Enjoy trains? You'll love the view as the East Broad Top Railroad travels through the backyard. You will be able to enjoy the view of historic steam engines and their distinctive whistling horns from the backyard picnic area or firepit. Also close Raystown Lake and Penn State University. A perfect place to stay on a game weekend!

A great home to visit!
The house has great character and charm. We watched the East Broad Top Christmas train go by each night which added to the experience. The house is very clean and well appointed. The hosts made the entire stay a pleasure.

Amazing location and beautiful house
Maybe one of my favorite stays ever! The house itself is an absolute gem and well appointed, and being able to have a camp fire and watch the trains pass was just a wonderful experience. Planning to book again next year!

Fantastic location!
We came into town for an East Broad Top Railroad photo charter. This large beautiful home was well maintained, immaculate and had everything we needed! Excellent communication with the owner. Short 3 minute drive to the EBT station. We will definitely stay here again!

Trackside Treasure
I am a regular VRBO user and this property nears the top of the list for setup, cleanliness and basic stock of supplies. The hosts were gracious enough to ensure that we had the basics for breakfast and that worked great to start our day. Rooms were comfortable and bathrooms worked well. The proximity to the EBT mainline was a tremendous factor in our enjoyment of the house. We will definitely rent again.

My wife, grandson, and I had a wonderful overnight stay. The location was terrific, the accommodations were perfect. To top it off, the weather cooperated and I even took a few pictures of the #16!

Beautiful home! Awesome location!
Clean, beautiful home right next to the East Broad Top tracks. You can watch the trains go by, and you are just 3 minutes drive away from the station. The home itself is impressive with it's mix of old and new.
