Perfect Location
We love this location for visiting Penn State. The setting is idyllic and the property is clean and comfortable. The outside space makes it that much better. This was our second stay and we always check availability here first when visiting Penn State.

Happy Valley Hideaway
Great spot for your game day weekend- came to PSU for football game with another couple. Owner is very easy to communicate with & kind. The loft is a perfect spot if you don't plan on spending much time there other than sleeping. We only had a few small issues: the listing doesn't make it clear that you're within feet of the owners home, cleanliness could have been a bit better and it's very tight living quarters if you plan on going with more than 2 people.

Cozy Getaway
The place was as advertised, and we really enjoyed the stay! Beautiful location in the woods, with all the comforts necessary to make this a positive trip. Dee and Gary were accommodating and very easy to work with, and they definitely take pride in their place. We'll stay again for our next trip up to PSU.

Great Fall Weekend in PA
A beautiful setting! Photos are accurate; firepit, stream and surrounding woods are awesome. The Loft itself is wonderful too. Had everything we needed! Beds are comfy kitchen is well stocked. Owners are on the property and made checkin/out very convenient. Location was great for a day visit to Penn State and another day hiking and exploring the area (Rothrock State Forest and Penn's Cave).

Quiet Stay
We had a great stay at this VRBO. The location was so quiet and we really enjoyed the firepit area watching the fireflies and the stream. The location was so close to everything we wanted to go to. We would stay again!

PSU Graduation
We stayed here for the weekend of my daughter’s graduation from PSY. It was not too far out of town for multiple trips back and forth to state college. It was very clean, and the beds and pillows very comfortable. My only advice for anyone wanting to stay here is that the steps are very steep and the bathroom is on the first floor. Us old folks had to be careful during the night. All in all, I’d stay again.

Great location for PSU game!
We really enjoyed our stay at The Loft. The trout stream was idyllic and the loft was comfortable! We loved being close enough, but far away from the craziness of Penn State. It was really easy to get in and out of the parking lots and Beaver stadium from where The Loft is located. We will definitely stay here again.

Cozy Great Fishing Location
My friend and I booked the Loft for a centrally located fishing trip. Everything at the Loft was as pictured and described in the listing. The kitchen and eating area is cozy and the bathroom is on the same level. The sleeping and living room areas are up a flight of stairs. As pictured, the 2 sleeping areas are separated by the living area and a curtain. Two couples may be a little uncomfortable with that. The outside area was peaceful, beautiful, and located on a small trout stream. The amenities are adequate, and the hosts were friendly. Thank you for a great location, facility, and stay!
