The PERFECT get away for Penn State’s graduation weekend! The house and property are beautiful, perfect for our extended family group. Absolutely everything we needed for a group dinner and we spent hours around the fireplace playing games. Cozy, comfortable, and beautiful. One thing to be ready for - cell service is pretty spotty (WiFi was great), so be sure to download entry info before you arrive. Thanks again Christine!

What a wonderful place to stay!!

We stayed the weekend with our family of 6. The house had plenty of room for everyone, was very clean and exactly as listed - well maintained and had everything we needed. The owner was very responsive to any questions we had. And the location is perfect - less than 25 minutes to State College and two state parks within minutes. We will definitely stay here again next time we visit the area!!

Beautiful setting, wonderful accommodations

We had a fantastic stay at the Studebaker House! We would highly recommend it. The setting could not be more beautiful. Coming up from the DC area, we thoroughly enjoyed the quiet setting and the ability to see so many stars. The accommodations were even better than they appear in the pictures. It was incredibly clean and comfortable. The small touches around the house made it that much more special. We're already planning our next visit!

Perfect Penn State Football Weekend

The Studebaker House was a great place to stay for the Penn State Football weekend. It took us less than 30 minutes to get to the stadium and it was wonderfully quiet and peaceful to return to. There were eight adults in our group and the accommodations were perfect with 4 large bedrooms and 3 full baths. Also, the beds were very comfortable. Christine was extremely helpful with recommendations and responded to our questions very promptly. We would highly recommend the Studebaker House for family or group gatherings.

What a great find!

We did a family vacation with our adult/ teen children for a long weekend and visit to Penn State for a game. The home and property exceeded our expectations which is always a pleasant surprise. Its a beautiful property, quiet and removed from the hustle and bustle but with 20 minutes of anything you need or want to do. The home holds an upscale but still cozy feeling. Was well equipped with everything we needed. I would love to come back in the spring for some hiking and exploring again.

Mini family vacation

We had a fabulous time at Christine’s home. The kitchen was well stocked and everyone loved the little “extras” she left us - water beside the bed as well as chocolates in the bedrooms (which were favorites of my two nieces who would come and visit us). It was a great place with 3 full bathrooms to accommodate our group which include my parents, our adult children and our niece and nephew. It was a great location to allow us to visit my brother and his family staying at Greenwood Furnace State Park and so close to Whipple Damn and Shavers Creek! The large property gave our daughter’s dog plenty of room to run as well as room for us to play outdoor games. Most important the home was clean! Thank you!

Fabulous getaway

We stayed at The Studebaker house this past weekend and couldn’t have been more pleased. Four couples headed to PSU to see our kids and a game. So 8 adults who all felt the same way “ when can we come back!” We pulled up and the property was beautiful, well maintained and so much to explore. Upon entering the home first thought was - so clean! The home had everything we needed! We had alot of prep work for the tailgate and the kitchen didn’t disappoint. Each bedromm was comfortable and clean. The host, Christine, thought of everything! A manual for any questions, glass bottles of water and candy in every bedroom, and good quality soaps and shampoos everywhere! Christine was the fastest host I have ever worked with! Any email I sent her was answered in like 5 minutes!!! She was such a pleasure to work with. Our whole experience was perfect and we can’t wait to go back next year!!!

A great place to relax

Snuggled in the midst of luscious green landscape, Studebaker House offers peace and quiet away from the hustle, bustle of everyday life. It is a wonderful place for family or friends to get together and reconnect. I picked Studebaker House because of it's proximity to Greenwood Furnace State Park, where family members were staying. We gathered one evening on the spacious deck to enjoy a meal cooked on the grill. My family was impressed with the cleanliness, spaciousness, tranquility and beauty of the home. I appreciated the owner's open-line of communication. All needed information is delivered in a timely manner (i.e. keycode for door). If your question is not addressed by the guest handbook conveniently located in the kitchen, the owner is just a phone call away. If I am ever in the area again and need a place to stay, I would choose Studebaker House. I highly recommend it. If looking for activities, Studebaker House is convenient to Columbus Chapel and Boal Mansion Museum, Thousand Steps/Standing Stone Trail, Greenwood Furnace State Park and only fifteen miles south of State College. Happy traveling!
