House is very well taken care of, property is quiet. Hosts are very great with communication and having instructions on how to use anything you would need. Very great stay!
We had a great stay, loved the house and made great memories. The house is charming and in a great location for us. It was clean and well organized. The owner was kind, prompt and accommodating.
We stayed for a long weekend while visiting our daughter at Penn State. I was able to cook two homecooked meals for her and her friends. We had everything we needed for a great stay!
Our family had a lovely stay close to Penn State. We were welcomed with awesome snacks in a clean home on a lovely tree lined street. Location was perfect and the owner was very thoughtful in the little extras provided. We would love to stay again!!
Owner is very thoughtful and provides above and beyond what I have experienced at other rentals, such as water bottles, breakfast bars, wine, toothpaste and shampoo! This is a perfect location for exploring State College.

Travelled with family and needed a place with three bedrooms. The home was absolutely fantastic and very comfortable. The owner left so many little accommodations that made it feel like home away from home. Stayed one night, and the area was pleasant with many restaurants accessible. Quiet neighborhood and easy to find. I would absolutely stay again.
We really enjoyed our stay. The house was extremely clean and in a nice neighborhood. We loved the welcome gift. The location was perfect for going to Penn State to see the White-Out football game!
This place was amazing. The host gave snacks and a bottle of Sangria. It was close to everything and not far from Penn State and where my daughter was moving into. Would stay again. They even supplies coffee, creamer, shampoo and body wash along with laundry pods. Would rent again!
The property was extremely clean and comfortable with sufficient supplies for our stay away from home. The home owner was accommodating and quick to respond. It is close to the college in a nice quiet neighborhood. I would highly recommend!
The location is ideal - in a wooded, quiet neighborhood, but close to PSU. Anything you need can be found on nearby Atherton Street. The house is comfortable and clean. We especially liked the air conditioning during the hot spell!
We were very happy with this lovely home. It was very clean, comfortable and nicely decorated. Lots of extras are provided making it much easier not to have to worry about bringing everything with us. Great location for all of the places we wanted to go during our short stay. Loved that it was close to a Wegmans and great restaurants. Nice walkable neighborhood that was very quiet. Great communication with the owner. Always happy to find pet friendly places. Thanks so much for a wonderful stay.
The owner was helpful, had recommendations for me as far as restaurants and things to do. The property is in one of the residential areas in State College and super close to Walmart, Trader Joe’s and Penn State.
A wonderful token welcomed my sisters and I, bottle of sangria and a basket with power bars and candy, wonderful and thoughtful touch!
