Beautiful spacious farmhouse, tasteful

A lovely location about 20 minutes from PSU campus. The house is spacious with a game room, TV room, porch room, large kitchen, enormous backyard with grill and badminton net, three bedrooms and one and a half bathrooms. The owners were incredibly thoughtful providing breakfast in the fridge, snacks and coffee. They thought of everything with extra blankets available, games, puzzles and more. The space was tastefully designed in a modern clean style with hardwood flooring, and a peaceful atmosphere. Also, the owners were very accessible by text and super helpful with any questions. One of our best VRBO experiences. We can't wait to go back. We were there on a rainy weekend and look forward to using the backyard more when we return. Thanks so much to the owners for sharing your lovely home.
