Lovely home near PSU!

Dawn is an amazing host, and her home was perfect for our weekend at Penn State! She thought of everything: toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags, shampoo/conditioner/soap in the bathrooms, hand soap by the sinks, dish soap—you name it! The kitchen was well stocked with everything, too! Easy access to the campus and stadiums, and the home is super clean! Highly recommend!
