Guest access: By keycode PIN # that will be provided before your occupancy. The entire house is at your disposal. There will be no one else staying with you during your booking.
Interaction with Owner: I'm available 24/7 by text message if needed. I'll check-in to make sure everything is to your satisfaction once or twice during your stay.
The Neighborhood: The neighborhood is quiet, and perfect to go to the hustle and bustle of the University or events at State College High but come home to a nice and relaxing atmosphere. What I love most is that it is close enough to all major venues yet far enough way to sit outside and enjoy the calm nights with no exterior noise.
The house is located on a sought after cul-de-sac. No through traffic creates a very pleasant atmosphere with minimal car engine noise. In the summer the trees and green space are in full effect. In the Fall, it is very picturesque with all of the colorful leaves on the ground.
There are young kids located on the street. The sound of children can be heard during the day sometimes. For the most part pretty quiet though!
Getting around: There is parking for 2 cars in the integral garage. An additional 6 cars can fit in the driveway.
Getting around is very easy! State College Area High School: If you'd like to walk to the high school simply walk off of the property through the yard to the Nittany Trail. Make a right and walk on the trail for about 3-5 minutes and you'll be there! Penn State University: simply call an Uber or a Lyft for a quick 5 minute ride!
Other things to note: There is a fully stocked laundry room if you'd like to do laundry during your stay.

Great location for our purposes and super cute neighborhood, plenty of room, lots of kitchen supplies and the communication from the owner was excellent.
Owner is super friendly and house was clean and well stocked. It was nice that there were lots of extra towels, blankets, and pillows available for use. Even stocked the k-cups for the Keurig!
This home was just perfect for our family! We had10 people fit comfortably. We were able to cook and BBQ for everyone and we were very happy about the location. Thank you!
Great location to Penn state , nice walking path adjacent to the house . Plenty of room for 8 of us . The host was very responsive to any questions I had . Would stay again .
The house was perfect for graduation weekend. Very close to campus and downtown. The house was very clean, plenty of space. Kitchen had everything we needed!
I wish we had found this house sooner!
This place is absolutely amazing for a large family! One of our favorite features was how the bedrooms are located down a hall with an extra door to close them off, perfect for when the kids needed to nap or go to bed without any disturbances. The basement was a fantastic bonus, with a great pool table and dart board that we all enjoyed. Another huge plus was the ample parking, which made things so much easier for our group with multiple drivers. We had a wonderful stay and highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a comfortable and family-friendly place near Penn State!
Michael's house was the perfect place for our son's graduation weekend. Communication was great, the check in process was easy, the house is exactly as advertised and located in a nice, quiet neighborhood in State College. The beds and bedrooms were comfortable and the downstairs entertaining and outside patio area were perfect for our graduation picnic. Thanks Michael!
I needed a place to meet with clients and chose to stay in this home versus a hotel. It was perfect for my client meetings. Beyond that, I could tell it would be a great get away for anyone coming to State College for Penn State University Football Games or other PSU events. The owner was very communicative and the house was perfect for my needs.
We had 10 people stay oat the property. The property was large enough to accommodate that size of group. The house has great outdoor space with a large yard. The house is right next to a walking path that takes you on to campus. It was a short 30 minute walk which was a great way to get to campus. Communication with the owner was easy and he provided quick responses. This will definitely be where we stay any time we come to Pen State.
This house was just as advertised! Location was great on the south side of PSU, which made getting on and off campus a little easier while moving our new freshman into his dorm. Looking at the house from the outside, you would never guess just how roomy it really is on the inside - plenty of space for a whole family to move around in very comfortably. The Keurig was a very welcome perk each morning. Would definitely recommend this house for any family traveling in to visit State College!
Great location, very comfortable, better than a hotel
We were on a work trip, with work colleagues coming and going for 3 weeks, the house has everything you need, making it much more comfortable than staying at a hotel for this period.
Overall great experience for the families that we stayed with. The owner was very responsive and accommodating and the house was as advertised. I would rent there again in a heartbeat!
The house was perfectly situated in a nice neighborhood with a bike/walking trail right behind it. The five bedrooms were all comfortable and the linens and coffee provided were a great asset to us during our stay. Would definitely recommend this home!
Michael was a terrific and responsive host, and our family group really enjoyed our stay. The neighborhood is quiet and a quick drive or Uber ride into town, or a 25 min walk. The game room was great for watching and playing games or just chilling. Would definitely stay again!
It was perfect to celebrate our son’s graduation. We could all be in one place, didn’t have to worry about lines in restaurants, and it had everything we needed!!!
This place is absolutely perfect for a gameday weekend. The house was amazing, yard was perfect, and we made a lot of memories. Michael was extremely communicative and helpful. Highly recommend.
