Nice little cabin in the woods

Overall a great option for visiting Penn State. Dated but very clean. Secluded and very quiet - didn’t want to get out of bed because it was so peaceful and comfortable. Record player with lots of records was a fun surprise. TV is very small and far from seating so if watching TV is important to you this is probably not the cabin for you. Bathroom was basic. Shower is tiny and water pressure on the light side. Towels were thick and soft.

Fantastic stay in a cute cabin near Penn State

My husband and I are were looking for a place to stay in the Penn State area that was not our usual hotel room when we found this cabin. And we are so glad we did. The cabin was very clean and had everything we needed.There were games and movies available if we got bored.The cabin is set in a quiet area with lots of trees and few neighbors.I had questions about certain things and Sean was so fast in responding! Never had a host reply so quickly before.Quite easy to find also! Thank you Sean for a great Blue/ White weekend! We Are!

Comfortable, quiet & clean

We slept so well. The beds were comfortable and the temperature could easily be adjusted with the heating units. The location was private, quiet and serene; the chalet is beautiful. I appreciated the nice fresh towels, coffeemaker, and hair dryer. You also won’t find ridiculous rules and checkout procedures for this rental. Take out the trash, turn everything off and leave the keys!

Everything we could have asked for. I grew up going to a family friends hunting cabin and the A frame gave me good memories of my time there. 20 mins to beaver stadium on gameday an added bonus. Great weekend at State!

Relaxing Retreat

We enjoyed relaxing in this classic A-frame chalet in a rustic setting proximate to State College. The beds were very comfortable, the kitchen well-stocked, the bathroom updated, and comfortable places to sit and talk or read both indoors and out - including a wonderful screened porch off the second story overlooking the back woods. The host was very responsive, the quarters were clean, and we had no issues with anything. It was a great place to relax yet be close enough to State College amenities to easily take advantage of them.

Great Spot in Centre County!

My son and I were in town for the PSU vs. OSU and the location worked out great! It is about 25 minutes from Beaver Stadium and downtown State College. The house was in a quiet peaceful setting and everything was set up nicely! The host's instructions and check-in information were excellent. Thank you Sean!
