Lovely home

We had a wonderful visit. The home is clean and had every special detail to enjoy. The waffles were a very nice touch. Our dog especially loved the back yard which was big enough to throw ball. A great time was had by all!

Perfect Getaway

We had an amazing stay at this house! I stayed here with three friends and the house was absolutely perfect for us. It was spotless when we arrived, and we immediately fell in love with the decor — it’s even better than the photos. The location was great too, close to everything we needed but still peaceful and quiet. I did not bring my dog, but the fenced in yard would have been perfect for her! We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable place to stay!

Weekend Stay

We were in town for our son's golf tournament at PSU and this was a perfect spot for a family of five with 3 kids 13 and under. It was convenient to the courses, clean, breakfast was a hit, and we even used the grill for an easy dinner on one of the nights.

Boalsburg Residence

Home was very nice and comfortable. My dog enjoyed the fenced back yard. I didn't think the bed was very comfortable, but I slept very well, so no complaints. My stay was very relaxing. The only issue was accessing the front door. The description indicated there was only one step, making it accessible to most. Unfortunately, that one step was very high, and there was no railing, and I had a very difficult time getting up on it. The back door was easier to access, so after my first entry, I was able to use the back door. A smaller step and rail or a ramp would make the home more accessible.

My daughter and I stayed while visiting for a competition at Penn State. The house is well decorated, beds are comfy, and there are lots of extras included (k cups, waffle station, comfy throw blankets). Our stay was wonderful-just like home! We hope to return the next time we’re in the area.
