Fun stay for Penn State game weekend!
Our group had traveled from around the country to the area for a Penn State football weekend. We found this to be an idyllic stay away from the hectic post-game traffic. Communication was timely and flexibility was appreciated. Wish we got to stay longer!

Beautiful location and host , but many back/windy roads to PSU
We were greet by a super sweet lady, Sharon who showed us around the property. I would not
Consider this property as “having all the amenities of home”’as there is no WiFi, couch or tv” but it’s the perfect place for. “Camping” style trip as the mattresses are very thin. There are No places deliver food to this location so make sure to bring everything you need as the closest store is about 25 minutes away. Also a little further of a drive to PSU as we realized.
We will definitely be checking it out in the summer as it is a beautiful location and property with the pond. Sled riding would have been awesome in the winter. It really was a nice place, just know what to expect.

Great stay!!
We were met at the property by Sharon, who showed us the cabin and gave us the keys for our stay. We were able to comfortably all spread out and spend time together, with plenty of room for the 14 of us. Beautiful location along the lake, and secluded; but not too far from town! Thank you again!!
