Roomy, Rustic Cabin-4BR, Modern Amenities-Rothrock St Forest near State College
The Mountain House - This lovely, rustic cabin features 4 bedrooms and modern comforts. Nestled in Rothrock State Forest, you're less than 1 mile from Whipple Dam State Park and 12 miles from State College. Perfect for those who enjoy outdoor activities (hunting, fishing, hiking, swimming, boating, biking, skiing, or snowmobiling); and for families and friends who want to spend time enjoying the activities and amenities in State College and the Penn State campus.
The 4 cozy bedrooms include two rooms each with a full bed, one room with 2 twin beds, and one room with a queen bed. The full bathroom and primary bedroom are located on the main floor.
Enjoy a meal, play games, or relax with a drink while listening to the birds on the large, screened-in porch on the side of the cabin. You can even bring your air mattress (or bring out one of our extra mattresses) and sleep out there - enjoy camping in the woods with indoor plumbing and without the bugs! Another screened-in porch along the front of the house provides additional relaxing, entertaining, and storage space. The main living space includes a fully-equipped, well-stocked kitchen with seating for 4, a large dining area (seats 8), and plenty of seating in the great room. The lofted upstairs features 3 private bedrooms. Pets and events are conditionally allowed. The parking areas outside allow for plenty of cars, including a camper, RV, or boat. All linens and towels are provided.
We are pet-friendly! Bring your dog (2-dog maximum) for an additional $50 per stay. Please let us know upon booking if your pet will be coming with you.

This is a cute, well appointed and cared for cabin. The owners were very attentive and responsive. We enjoyed the proximity to State College and Whipple Dam State Park.
Absolutely great cabin with plenty of room for us all and central to Whipple dam state park/Rothrock state forest. Well stocked and great communication from the owners.
Kris and Joe are exceptional hosts. The property was well stocked, and clean and cozy. Their communication prior to and during the stay was great. They include a binder that is full of information for the property, as well as menus and pamphlets with activities in the area. Everything about this trip was perfect and we'll definitely be booking with them again! If I could give them more than five stars I definitely would!
We had such a great time at this cabin! The cabin was very clean and cozy and had everything we needed. The hosts were very responsive and left instructions that made it easy to use amenities and check out without issues. We were able to use ride share to get back and forth from downtown state college. The property and location were beautiful and peaceful. Definitely will stay again!
We stayed here for PSU family weekend and comfortably slept 3 adults and 3 children (two of whom are the size of adults). They have thought of everything here! Kitchen is fully stocked for making a family dinner…rooms are super clean…and beds are cozy! There are two screened porches, which were a lovely place to have coffee in the morning and read a book. Owner was great and communicated with us leading up to our arrival, even giving us ideas of things to do. And the drive to State College was only 20 minutes! We will definitely be back!
I did NOT want to write a review about the coziest cabin EVER because I selfishly want to keep everyone else unaware of how incredible this home is!! Our family had the most amazing weekend here. Ample cozy quilts, comfy beds, yummy coffee on the screened in porch, cooked stickies (a thoughtful gift from the host), beautiful trees, ample space for our teens and their friends, snacks galore provided by the host, close drive to PSU. Everything was perfect! I wish we could have stayed for a week and explored the surrounding area. Next time!!! We will definitely stay here again!! Fingers crossed that this amazing cabin will be available because the best kept secret like this place won’t stay hidden for long!
