Cozy and Modern Farmhouse

KacieRating, 5 stars1 month ago

We loved Elizabeth’s place! It was beautifully decorated, homey, and very clean. Unfortunately a big storm came through the area a couple days before our check-in that knocked the power out. Elizabeth communicated with me frequently about any updates. We were disappointed the power didn’t come back on and we had to find other accommodations, but loved the time we did spend at the place! Will definitely stay again and recommend to others!

Willow Oak Cottage

KayeRating, 5 stars5 months ago

We had such a wonderful stay! Jess was an amazing host – so attentive and responsive, making us feel right at home. The cottage was absolutely stunning and truly felt like a cozy home away from home. I especially loved how beautifully decorated it was for Christmas – such a lovely touch! The surrounding area was just breathtaking, and we were lucky enough to spot deer wandering through the yard one morning, which was such a special experience. Everything about our stay was perfect, and the location was just ideal for attending the PSU commencement. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay!

Cozy Guest House, 15 mins-PSU

JeanmarieRating, 5 stars6 months ago

My family and I enjoyed our time at Halfmoon House. It made us feel like home as soon as we walked in the door. Everything was so neat, clean, and cozy. The extra snacks, fruit, and odds and ends that you might have forgotten to pack were so thoughtful of Marissa to provide. We stayed the weekend for a Penn State game and it was the perfect distance from campus. We enjoyed returning to the quiet, making a pot of tea, and settling in for the night. Thank you for everything, we look forward to returning!
