This house is in a great location for outdoor fun. It was clean and cozy and had everything we needed for our stay. We had good communication with owner. Nearby bars have really good bar food and the Dollar General has what you need to make breakfast.
We were up for a hunting trip. It was perfect for what we needed. My grandkids had a great time. They were out playing ping-pong every night I would definitely recommend it.
This property was a great location for what we were planning to do for the weekend, it was close to Black Moshannon State Park and Mosquito Creek Sportsmen Association. The rental was clean and had everything we needed; the property itself was private and yet accessible even with winter roads. We would not hesitate to stay here again.
Comfortable, welcoming home for our family. We were able to rest and prepare for our Daughter's Graduation from PSU. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality.
Also loved the addition of the dart board and table tennis. Privacy was great!

We were going UTV riding on the snow shoe trails with friends in the area and we stayed here. This property was perfect for the weekend. We were able to ride our UTV from the house to the trails and back. The place was very clean and cozy. If we have the opportunity, we will definitely stay here again.
This location was very clean, well organized and offered all necessary home amenities. Very quiet and peaceful location with an incredible evening sky. The host was very responsive and kindly left us a few snacks and bottles of water. Overall, a very lovely stay!
Stayed here for one of our kids sporting events, the rules and expectations were clearly outlined, the location was convenient but out of the main drive, our kids enjoyed the ping pong table during our down time. The place was very well kept and the host communicated everything we needed to know in a timely manner. We are definitely planning on coming back for future events in the area!
We walked the property down to a small stream. A good location for peace and quiet. Not close to good dining options. It takes a full 45 minutes to get to State College, but we knew that going in. Good communications!
The information in the listing is accurate. It was clean and everything was as expected. The owners were more than kind and quickly responded to any questions I had. They provided a well organized ring binder with all of the needed information of the area including emergency services and hospital nearby. I would not hesitate to book it again when in that area.
This property is unique in that it has a HUGE two bay garage attached to a small, 2 bedroom house. When you arrive, you open the door on the right side of the garage doors and pull your car inside. Apparently, this place is designed for ATV riding & maintenance. The house itself was immaculately clean. When you are inside, all you may hear are the crickets outside. It is really quiet, so you sleep undisturbed. There is a gas grill, a firepit with plenty of firewood, and a nice kitchen/living room combo. Brandon, the owner/prop mgr, was super responsive, so check-in was quick and easy using a door code provided the day before arrival. I stayed here for a quick overnight during Penn State's Family Weekend, and it was great! Would definitely stay here again!
Absolutely loved the place!! The garage was a fun hangout place to unwind after our family reunion. Threw darts for a couple of hours. Clean, organized, and all instructions were very clear. The property even had a wonderful walking path around the property. Will come back again for a stay.
