Edna and Bob were AMAZING hosts! We had no power Friday into Saturday, but thankfully Edna and Bob brought down water and flashlights and offered their own home down the road for a hot meal and to warm up! We will definitely be staying again!!

Thanks for your review. I wanted to tell you to expect a package from me on Monday. I found a pr of sweatpants after you left. Check the package for another item as well. Edna Miller.
We came up for the PSU hockey game and had a great stay! We arrived to freshly baked cookies that Edna had made for us that were amazing! The cabin was cozy and very nice. Would recommend. Thank you for hosting us.
Fantastic place to stay. Went for a PSU game. Close enough to drive back and forth from State College, but in a wonderfully secluded area that is perfect for some relaxing time away. Highly recommended.

We had a great time. The cabin has a lot of charm and perfect for a family or 2-couples. Super clean and updated and easy to get to campus for game time.
Can't go wrong if you are looking to get away from congestion.
The description says it all, cozy cabin in the woods!! It is perfect! Edna is the best host making sure we arrived and easily checked in. We will look you up on our next trip for sure!! Thank you!
With the insane prices hotels were charging in State College this lovely cabin was the perfect options for those willing to travel a few more minutes and save a ton of cash. Comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, plenty of living room seating available and freshly baked cookies, couldn’t ask for anything more. Will definitely plan on staying again.
This little cabin was perfect, not to far from Penn State. If you give her a head up on what time you'll be there she will have a coffee cake waiting for you. Can't wait to go back.
We enjoyed our stay at the Cozy Cabin. It has everything you need, towels, bedding and kitchen utensils. They provide a coffee/tea station which is wonderful! (I forgot about coffee) It was very clean and accommodating. We would stay again if in the area.
Couldn't have asked for a better stay. The cabin was terrific. The craftsmanship and decor were perfect. The cabin was very clean and comfortable. The location was a nice change from a crowded State College (Graduation Weekend). My wife loved the front porch swing. As great as the place was, working with Edna was even better. A terrific host who made herself available for any needs we had. Even checked in on us the first day. Would absolutely stay again. Thanks Edna for a terrific weekend.
Going for a weekend of wrestling already knowing you’ll be a little stressed Edna and her husband made this process 100% easier. Available to answer any questions, give you information etc.The location of the property was amazing, the cabin it’s self was amazing. And it was just nice to go to a quiet place after a long exhausting couple of days for wrestling. I will definitely book this property whenever I attend anything in the area.

About the host
Hosted by Edna Miller
Bob & Edna Miller are a retired couple ready to welcome visitors to their cozy cabin! Originally located at a local girl scout camp, this cabin was cut in thirds and transported to its current location in the early 1960s. The cabin was then used as a hunting cabin for a family from Lancaster, PA. When the cabin was listed for sale by the family, the Miller's decided to purchase the property and renovate the cabin to use as a rental.
Why they chose this property
Quiet country atmosphere to enjoy natural surroundings but close enough to local communities for sporting events, concerts and plays, shopping, dining, and other activities within 15 to 30 minute commute.
