About this property
Cozy Private House close to Penn State Campus
Just 12 minutes away from downtown, this three bedroom one bath house is the perfect place for a family or a group of friends heading to State College.
In addition to plenty of room for guests to relax, the Stately Lion (it's what I named the house) also features a big backyard with a fire pit and if you think the way I do, a good campfire completes any weekend.
The house is on Route 322, which is conveniently located on the way into or out of State College, which enables you to be close enough without the hassle of traffic getting out of SC.
The house has a full kitchen, living room, laundry room (in the "mudroom"), and a full basement, with games.
Enjoy the convenience of amenities like AC, WiFi, and a washer and dryer. Each bedroom has a wireless charger and an Alexa.
The kitchen comes with a coffee machine, dishwasher, KitchenAid, plenty of pots and pans and baking items, as well as plenty of coffee choices!
In case you forgot anything, there are travel items available. As well as a hair dryer.
If it's too cold for the fire pit, there's an electric fireplace and an Nintendo emulator in the living room.
Our place will help you feel at home while you're at PSU.
I'm an animal lover and understand sometimes, we just can't leave our furry friends at home. Pets are welcome, for a small fee.
The property does have a security system (with cameras), for your added protection. Each guest will receive a unique code good only for the duration of the stay.
This is also our home away from home, so you will see some personal items, like pictures, a hairbrush, etc.

About the host
Hosted by Virginia Feinman
I'm a Penn State grad who fell in love, as most of us do, with the school and more importantly the family the school created. It was always my dream to have a house at PSU because after I graduated, I would find it so hard to find a good place to stay, that didn't break the bank. I want to try to pay it forward, so to speak, by giving a great place, at a good price.
What makes this property unique
Although the house is on a "main" road, it's quiet and has the feel of being in the woods, away from the Big City. It's a wonderful area which always leaves me feeling relaxed and refreshed.
