Perfect Stay for Penn State Graduation Weekend!
We had an exceptional stay at this VRBO for our son’s graduation. The house truly felt like a home away from home—clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed. Its convenient location near the Penn State campus and local grocery stores made our trip even more enjoyable. The hosts went above and beyond to ensure a seamless experience. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate such a special milestone. Highly recommend!

Perfect Spot for PSU Gamea
House was about 10 minutes from Downtown State College. Nicely situated away from traffic yet convenient enough to get into town or to Beaver Stadium. Check in was easy and if you are traveling with families it’s perfect. Big piece of property with enough room for three families with small children and a room for teens. All three families enjoyed the property and would definitely look to rent again.

big and clean
The house was very clean and was a good size for our group (9 of us). There were a few items that weren't perfect (dishwasher was broken, beds weren't super comfortable) Overall a very good place to stay for a Penn State football game. Close to the campus, very convenient.

We came to State College to drop our kids off for school and couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay! The home is in the perfect location and you couldn’t ask for a nicer, more comfortable house in such a peaceful setting. We absolutely enjoyed our stay and can’t wait to go back!

Beautiful setting.
Very fortunate to find this gem. 8th grade basketball team competing in Pennsylvania State Tournament. Was a classic retreat with a beautiful view of the valley from the mountain. An incredibly fun set up for kids with land, basketball, trampoline, and Xbox set up. We experienced so much at this property and really bonded as a team. Couldn’t imagine it being more perfect.

Spent a few days at this property. Nice quiet spot that is off the beaten path but it is still close to the downtown area and campus. Saw lots of wildlife on the property. It had all of the amenities that we needed. Enjoyed the stay.

A beautiful Oasis or relaxation!
We stayed 3 nights in this gorgeous house tucked away in the foothills of State College. It was very conveniently located to amenities such as restaurants, grocery stores and gas stations. But it felt like we were far removed from anything as this house sits on a massive sweeping property with plenty of places to sit outside amongst the grass and trees. The house was spacious and clean with very comfortable couches and recliners, large TVs, multiple gathering areas etc. I would stay here again in a heartbeat the next time we come to State College!

Volleyball Tournament
We came out to visit for the weekend for a volleyball tournament my daughter had and this house was perfect for our family of 5! It was also a plus to have our two Boston Terrier puppies join us for the weekend. The scenery and hiking trails were amazing and we would come back in a heartbeat. The hosts were very nice and made us feel at home. They left us a special treat of marshmallows, chocolate and graham crackers to make s'mores around the fire pit out front which we did one night and it was so nice to sit out there under the stars. Highly recommend the house for your stay in the Penn State area!
