Interaction with Owner:
I'm available 24/7 by text message if needed. I'll check-in to make sure everything is to your satisfaction once or twice during your stay.

The Neighborhood:
The neighborhood is quiet, and perfect to go to the hustle and bustle of the University or events at State College High but come home to a nice and relaxing atmosphere. What I love most is that it is close enough to all major venues yet far enough way to sit outside and enjoy the calm nights with no exterior noise.

The house is located on a sought after cul-de-sac. No through traffic creates a very pleasant atmosphere with minimal car engine noise. In the summer the trees and green space are in full effect. In the Fall, it is very picturesque with all of the colorful leaves on the ground.

There are young kids located on the street. The sound of children can be heard during the day sometimes. For the most part pretty quiet though!

Getting around:
There is parking for 2 cars in the integral garage. An additional 6 cars can fit in the driveway.

Getting around is very easy!
State College Area High School:
If you'd like to walk to the high school simply walk off of the property through the yard to the Nittany Trail. Make a right and walk on the trail for about 3-5 minutes and you'll be there!
Penn State University: simply call an Uber or a Lyft for a quick 5 minute ride!

Other things to note:
There is a fully stocked laundry room if you'd like to do laundry during your stay.

Absolutely Amazing

This place is absolutely amazing for a large family! One of our favorite features was how the bedrooms are located down a hall with an extra door to close them off, perfect for when the kids needed to nap or go to bed without any disturbances. The basement was a fantastic bonus, with a great pool table and dart board that we all enjoyed. Another huge plus was the ample parking, which made things so much easier for our group with multiple drivers. We had a wonderful stay and highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a comfortable and family-friendly place near Penn State!

Penn State House

We had 10 people stay oat the property. The property was large enough to accommodate that size of group. The house has great outdoor space with a large yard. The house is right next to a walking path that takes you on to campus. It was a short 30 minute walk which was a great way to get to campus. Communication with the owner was easy and he provided quick responses. This will definitely be where we stay any time we come to Pen State.

Business Trip

I needed a place to meet with clients and chose to stay in this home versus a hotel. It was perfect for my client meetings. Beyond that, I could tell it would be a great get away for anyone coming to State College for Penn State University Football Games or other PSU events. The owner was very communicative and the house was perfect for my needs.

Perfect House for the Family

This house was just as advertised! Location was great on the south side of PSU, which made getting on and off campus a little easier while moving our new freshman into his dorm. Looking at the house from the outside, you would never guess just how roomy it really is on the inside - plenty of space for a whole family to move around in very comfortably. The Keurig was a very welcome perk each morning. Would definitely recommend this house for any family traveling in to visit State College!

Perfect Homecoming Weekend

Michael's house was everything we needed for a family reunion and homecoming weekend. The layout was great, we liked how the upper and lower bedrooms could be closed off for noise. Place was well equipped, and had plenty for everyone to do. Location was great, so easy to get downtown or to the stadium. Easy 3 mile walk if you are into that! Grocery store around the corner, plenty of restaurants nearby. We were so on the go, I only wish we had more time to enjoy the properties outdoor space (although the kids certainly did). I would definitely book again and recommend anyone looking for a great spot to host a bigger family.
