This property exceeded our expectations in every way. It was an inviting home that was super clean and extremely spacious. There were fun touches that included games, message book, visitor flag wall, coffee, and snacks. Ample driveway parking prevented the need for street parking. The house held our three family get together with comfortable beds. We never ran out of hot water which is always a plus. This was our favorite home rental property in PSU!

PICKWICK STAY WAS GOOD

The property was nice and cozy, we enjoyed a short weekend there. The house was cleaned. I think the property has not boosted boiler installed. The hot water not working when two or three people shower one after another. As all, was a nice place to stay.

This was a wonderful place to stay with family during our football weekend - wish we had more time to enjoy the comforts this house offers. Loved the extra touches by the hosts like the guestbook, wall decorations to show where visitors are from, snacks, good coffee, etc. And the location was great! Because we were so busy during the weekend, we missed some communications from the hosts, so a day before departure message would have helped in our case. But it was our miss since we weren’t checking for messages. I recommend this place as a great spot for your visit to State College.

Our family of 7 greatly enjoyed our stay at Pickwick Place! The home was very clean, the beds were comfortable and there was plenty of room for us to eat together, relax and enjoy one another’s company. We also greatly appreciated how well stocked the home was! A lot of attention to detail went into making our stay fantastic! We hope to stay again in the future!

Graduation

We had an amazing stay! The house was perfect and had everything we needed. It’s very spacious, with plenty of room for a large group. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and both the porch and backyard were fantastic for relaxing. The property backs up to a park with a walking trail, which was a great bonus. Communication with the owners was easy and smooth. The location is also excellent—close to everything. I would definitely stay here again!

Summer Graduation

Great stay at Pickwick Place. We were in State College for my son’s MBA graduation. The house was awesome with plenty of room, comfortable beds and close to everything. The house was well stocked with a high chair, toddler toys and books for my 18 month old grandson. We would highly recommend Pickwick place for all Penn State events.
