Beautiful spacious farmhouse, tasteful

A lovely location about 20 minutes from PSU campus. The house is spacious with a game room, TV room, porch room, large kitchen, enormous backyard with grill and badminton net, three bedrooms and one and a half bathrooms. The owners were incredibly thoughtful providing breakfast in the fridge, snacks and coffee. They thought of everything with extra blankets available, games, puzzles and more. The space was tastefully designed in a modern clean style with hardwood flooring, and a peaceful atmosphere. Also, the owners were very accessible by text and super helpful with any questions. One of our best VRBO experiences. We can't wait to go back. We were there on a rainy weekend and look forward to using the backyard more when we return. Thanks so much to the owners for sharing your lovely home.

Had a great stay.

The stay was great. Enjoyed the sound of the water flowing from the small creek. The fire pit was wonderful enjoyed roasting marshmallows. The BBQ grill was a bonus, worked well and our burgers turned out great. The hosts were very kind and responsive if their was any questions. The beds were nice too and having the bath and a half helped out alot. Lost of supplys were available if we needed something.

The hosts texted a few days before to check if we needed anything special, and even decorated for Christmas for us (they asked first) which made our holiday even more festive!The place was stocked with anything and everything you could possibly need, in the kitchen and the bath.Plenty of towels and cookware.Glad they had paper plates, so we could clean up quickly on the day we left (you need to wash dishes and put away before leaving)Super clean. Very quiet area. Would be a great place to hang outdoors when the weather is nice, large yard and private. Would be Great for 3 couples.If we come to this area again, this is where we will try to stay.
