About this property
HOOTING HAUS - HOT TUB - FIRE PIT - CABIN RETREAT
Nestled at the edge of a forest and named after our resident owl, Hooting Haus is a European styled cabin retreat close to all Penn State offers.
The gourmet kitchen's rustic charm features a zinc island, butcher block counter and stunning natural stone wall. Entertain guests at the artisan crafted pine table while dining next to the antique cast iron fireplace. Cap the evening sharing stories under the cool night sky gathered 'round the fire pit with a soothing hot toddy or mug of creamy cocoa.
NOTE-
We have beautiful woods at the back of the property, but if you're looking for a secluded getaway, this cabin may not be a good fit. We're close to the highway, which is very convenient to Beaver Stadium, campus and town - only 10 minutes and less than 8 miles away.
*2nd bedroom is located in the upstairs loft & library. Cozy, but not fully private.

I've been a local since 2010 when we made the leap to move here and raise our family! Happy Valley has the small town charm we love, cozy bistros, lively breweries & is fun for all ages! We adore our little town and feel so lucky to call State College home!
Thank you for considering our listings and supporting a local family- it’s genuinely changed our lives and I feel so grateful for your support!
