PSU Playoff

We stayed here 2 years ago for another game. The house is charming with beautiful views (we had some snow) . Speaking of snow the owners had the step scraped off for us up on arrival. Comfy and cozy - warm and spacious ... really enjoy home Our kids love it as well

Quiet, relaxing and lovely

Stayed during parent and family weekend at PSU. House is absolutely beautiful, clean, serene and comfortable. Decorated beautifully. Comfortable beds and living room area. Great place to retreat from PSU. Not much around so bring your groceries or plan to eat out back in State College.

25 Year Anniversary Weekend

The Log Cabin was both charming and luxurious. We enjoyed sitting outside on the front porch in the rural setting, and the view of the Huntingdon Furnace was special. We selected the cabin so we could visit Penn State, where we met all those years ago; the drive to campus was lovely. The hosts and property were excellent. Would recommend and we hope to return!

Amazingly beautiful inside, beautifully landscaped with peaceful scenery all around.

Friends meeting in the area for a wedding, perfect location being only a couple of miles from the wedding. The home is absolutely amazing! Renovation was completed with attention to every single detail! Beautiful spaces indoor and out. Well furnished with comfy bedding, cozy furniture and well equipped kitchen. I will highly recommend this perfect spot for a peaceful overnight stay!

Beautiful House

This is a beautiful newly renovated property. My fiancée made comments about moving in lol. We were in town to support our daughter for the Olympic Trials in State college. The drive was very scenic going in and out of the property. If we are even in Pennsylvania (hopefully in 4 years) we will be on the lookout for this property.

Phenomenal place for a family

Fabulous place to stay - especially in the Fall. The house was meticulously clean and decorated to a T. The hosts, Laura and Matt, are very attentive. Loved waking up to a view of the cows. Will stay again for sure.

Beautiful Property in a Serene Location

Everything was perfect for our family's visit together! This historic property has been beautifully renovated with all the necessary amenities. We loved cooking in the kitchen and on the grill as well as relaxing on the porch enjoying the serenity. The location was close enough for the Penn State game but far enough away to escape the crowds of State College. The communication and hospitality by the hosts was the fantastic. The pictures do not this property justice, it is like a resort that we did not want to leave. We are definitely planning on returning!
