About this property

Great Home For Penn State Fans

Only 9 miles from Penn State, this charming brick home in a friendly neighborhood on Halfmoon Hill overlooks the valley and beautiful Victorian downtown Bellefonte, PA, which features many restaurants and shops. You'll enjoy two bedrooms with a spacious full bathroom upstairs and a convenient half bathroom downstairs. There are queen beds in both bedrooms and the living room includes a futon sofa that quickly converts to a full bed. Amenities include a washer and dryer in the lower level, cable TV in living room and back bedroom, and wireless internet. The kitchen amenities include cooking utensils and tableware, coffee maker, microwave, and modern stainless finish appliances including an electric range/oven and spacious refrigerator/freezer. Hardwood and tile floors throughout, with radiator heating in each room, and powerful a/c units upstairs and downstairs if needed. Relaxing porches extend across front and back of the home with pleasant views. House-trained pets are welcome (our two dogs visit in the home often but not during rented weekends). The home has a spacious back yard, partially fenced as a safe play area for children and pets. Off-street parking in private lot is suitable for up to four cars. Check in as early as 9:00 AM on Friday or whenever is convenient. Check out as late as 5:00 PM on Sunday if needed. The home is a few miles off Interstate 99 near the I-80 intersection, and a short drive to PSU campus and Beaver Stadium. No smoking inside, please. Smokers may use the porches. One bedroom upstairs is locked, used by owners for owner storage. The home sleeps 6 people, but with your own portable bedding you could include several more people if necessary.

This was a beautiful home and so comfortable! I would highly recommend and would choose this again and again. The only thing I would say is that though it is a walk to town, It is on a pretty steep hill. So we did drive the short distance to town.

House was in great condition, very clean. House was comfortable and had character. The host was kind enough to leave some treats. Ample parking. Very convenient to a quaint Town center. Sleeps 8 in the description means 6 with room to expand if you bring your own air mattress. It is described in the details, but it is not evident upon initial search.

We loved the location, the porches, and the fenced in backyard. Erik was a terrific host-very thoughtful touches to the house with snacks for us and toys for our pups. Would definitely recommend for anyone visiting State College.

Impeccable rental

One of the cutest, cleanest, most organized VRBOs we have ever stayed in. Location was perfect for our needs and the fenced in yard for our dog was an added bonus.

Loved this house and location for a weekend getaway with the grandkids. They had fun in the back yard and on the back porch. Evening views over the mountains were beautiful. Short drive to Penns Cave which was a great excursion.
