We rented the house for a Penn State football weekend and it was perfect! Close enough to walk to campus. Owners attend to every detail - tons of electrical plugs, kitchen well equipped, tons of towels and extra bed linens, dog treats, paper towels, home made treats, etc. They even allowed us an early check in. The only suggestion would be to trim the overgrown plants around the mailbox, walkway and front door.

My Favorite Stay at PSU!

Easily the best place that we (alumni!) have stayed at PSU. Clean, and way bigger than the pictures show. Cute patio out back. Easy walking distance to the stadium, and short Uber trip to downtown. Will be staying again for certain!

Penn State Hideway

If you are looking for a quiet place in a wooded area, away from the PSU hustle and bustle, this is a good fit. It was walkable to campus but not an easy walk, likely a drive for most people. Not as close to Sunset Park as the ad made it seem. Sleeps 3-4 most easily. Two of the rooms easily sleep a couple, but the third bedroom was very small. Clean, comfortable, well stocked, and easy to communicate with the hosts. We enjoyed our stay.

Perfect Place for our Family

This was the perfect property for our recent trip to State College. We needed a place close to campus that could fit our family of 5. We arrived to a sparkling clean house with, much to our delight, freshly baked cookies. The kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked with everything we needed and more. The hosts were very responsive and check in and check out was super easy. We will definitely use this property again the next time we head to Penn State.

Great spot, quiet and secluded yet only a short drive to the heart of State College and the PSU campus. Sits on the edge of the aboretum, so expect to see lots of wildlife. We saw rabbits, beavers, deer and of course squirrels.
