Very nice house with ample room for everyone. Very easy check in process. Owners were very friendly and called a few days before our stay to go over a few things and answer any questions that we had. If we are ever in the area again we will definitely be looking to stay at this property.

We were mostly staying to go to sporting events with the family (basketball game, track meet, etc) and it was a great location to drive anywhere. House was nice and as described, and host was super communicative and helpful.

We loved this home and will be back. Kevin communicated perfectly with us. I want to say more great things, but fear the home won’t be available when we would like to stay again :)

Nice quiet stay

We stayed here while helping our daughter move into her apartment for school. It was a great base location and we had quiet and restful sleep that was very helpful for a such a hectic trip. This will be our go to place to stay for future visits to Penn State to see our daughter if it is available.

Great location for downtown State College access

Lovely welcome basket and paper supplies. Stayed with 6 other people. Location was one of the best for downtown access we have stayed in at State College. Well stocked kitchen and linens with the exception of a few washcloths short. Comfy living areas and beds. Please be aware that there is no bathroom on the lower level and plan accordingly when figuring out room assignments. This was not a concern for us but may be for older guests or those with young ones. Host was very responsive to communication.

THON - perfect place to stay

2 families stayed for THON weekend and it was perfect. 2.5 miles to get to the Bryce Jordan. House was just what we needed, beds were comfortable (for the little sleep we got), the kitchen was nice and had all we needed. Kevin reached out before we arrived to make sure we were all set for our stay.

About the host

Hosted by Kevin and Carli Henichek

Host profile image
We are Penn State alumni! We have two elementary school-aged daughters who are already counting the days until they can enroll at Dear Old State!

Why they chose this property

We wanted to have a home to be able to come back and enjoy the PSU experience with our daughters. We hope you will have a wonderful experience and create your own memories of State College like we have. Whether your trip includes a football game, graduation, festival, or just a little R&R away from the everyday craziness, this "home away from home" will truly be an enjoyable experience.

What makes this property unique

We are 3 miles from downtown State College and about the same distance from Beaver Stadium and the Bryce Jordan Center. The Nittany Mall is also 2 miles away. Basically, a 10 minute drive will get you to just about anywhere you need to go!
Our house is close enough to the action, but in a quiet area for you and your family to relax. We have a play set for the kids, a deck for the adults, and a basement for every one!
There is wi-fi Internet as well as cable TV in 2/3 of the rooms.
We pride ourselves on keeping the home well maintained and clean for our guests.
