Beautiful property on the creek, clean, renovated in most part with gorgeous spacious grounds. Great owner, easy going, understanding, and easy to communicate with. Would definitely recommend.

Basketball Tournament Weekend in Penn State

The owner was super responsive and helpful during our stay. Plenty of room for three families to share. Great place to relax.

Fishing trip.

The location was perfect, so I thought. I believe the no fishing should be more of a priority listed up front and no near the end. We got instructions about the wifi, which we followed but never had it the entire time there. The inside was really nice but the outside landscaping was bad, sad to see.

Comfy Thanksgiving home away from home

We enjoyed our stay at the cabin and was what we were looking for. A place to relax, enjoy the surroundings, and unwind. Our host was terrific as well - engaging to ensure we enjoyed our time here.

Beautiful scenes and peaceful vibes

A very warm rustic stay away from home. Everything was very clean, easy find stuff for cooking, comfortable furniture, and the beds were the best to sleep on, I stay out of town a lot so it was nice to have a good night sleep. The outdoor scenery is breathtaking with the greenery & woods with a beautiful flowing spruce creek to listen too. Would most definitely recommend anyone to stay here and would rebook again in the future if available.

Spruce Creek

Really nice place. Perfect for a large family gathering. Stayed there with our family for the PSU vs MD game. Convenient drive to football tailgating lots on north side of Beaver Stadium.

Great Family Getaway

Beautiful view of the mountains, creek running through was great to hang out side with the fire. Really enjoyed spending time in the great room with the pool table and plenty of seating so we could all spend time together! Owners are very attentive, my son lost his phone there and they so kindly offered to meet us to return! Will definitely come again.

Weekend getaway in rustic cabin

Perfect for what we wanted, something different, quite, around nature. We wanted to be together with family for a fun weekend, what better than cold weather with a roaring fire, no cable - watched DVD movies and played pool. The cabin was rustic with a wood paneling cabin theme. The beds and rooms spacious. Setting was beautiful with a mountain and stream at its base as our back yard view with a wonderful flowing water sound, while looking out a Bald Eagle flew along the stream. We visited State College which was not too far away with nice drive through the countryside and farm fields.

Great stay

Beautiful area. Love how quiet it was. The creek running by made morning so relaxing. And to have the fire outside was great. It was great for a small college friend reunion. The house was clean. Well kept. We would rent it again. Loved the higher beds. Felt like home.

Not as Advertised

Owner had to be promoted to send check in info but did respond. Literature had instructions that were no longer valid. Inside was clean, but outside was not. Patio chairs were filthy. Moose head was torn and the muzzle was hanging off it when we arrived. We had let the owner know we were using it for a work trip and needed strong WiFi. We were informed that is was strong enough for a PSU professor to host Zoom classes. We found that the internet went in as our frequently, and we lost sound and even had several work calls drop -to the point where we had to drive to Tyrone 2 of the days to complete our remote meetings. Patio door handle was broken. There was nowhere in the master to put clothes as the armoire was filled with mismatched towels and sheets. Second bedroom was filled with blankets, so there was no room in there either. Master bath sink faucet was too close to the bowl, making it difficult to use without splashing water all over the back of the vanity. Other shower door did not seal, causing flooding when we showered.That said, it was quiet and has potential to be a lovely escape from technology.

Freezing weather but still fun

My husband and I took our kids and little pug here for Christmas. Of course we pick the coldest weekend in 30 years!! It was -6 degrees. The pipes froze but the owner drove out on Christmas Eve to thaw them and no problems after that. The kids had fun in the snow until they froze. It's in a pretty area with a river in the back and a fenced in area for the dog. It was a quiet space and didn't feel like there was anyone else around. The kitchen was well stocked. The place was clean. The owners were very responsive and truly wanted us to enjoy our stay.

Fun family weekend getaway

Great property for getting together with family/friends. Very spacious with cabin feel inside. Beds were comfortable and there was plenty of seating. Large selection of DVDs. Large kitchen…but could use new pots/pans… there were no baking dishes or cookie sheets. Family room was large and pool table was enjoyable. Outside area was not as private as we had hoped, but view out back was great… loved the large creek running right behind the property. Enjoyed hiking, but most trails were fairly steep and rocky… just something to know ahead of time. Internet is very spotty so plan on being without technology while staying here. Fenced in area for the dogs was very convenient. Overall it was a nice rental with the cabin gel we were seeking!

Had a few “hiccups”

Property is in a beautiful location, would be great outdoor space in nice weather. Virtually impossible to find in the dark, needs better signage, lighting, specific directions, because the road signs don’t match up with any navigation apps. and it is Dark back there! Thankful for the back up heat sources because the central heating as well as Internet service (including tv streaming) were off-line for the first 24 hours until the manager returned my texts. The shared living spaces are wonderful, kitchen/dining and family room areas. Our teens enjoyed using the pool table since TV service wasn’t working. Bed and bath situation not really conducive for 10 guests as one of the bedrooms just basically fits a bed, has no privacy with glass doors, no storage and a bedroom door that doesn’t close. One bathroom is captive to the main bedroom, and the other bathroom is very tiny to be shared among eight guests. The interior is nicely decorated and well-maintained, exterior is a work in progress.

Cozy cabin, family fun

The cabin was great. Cozy, but spacious. Clean, easy going, friendly host. We had a very fun time playing billiards, taking a quick hike. And easy commute to Penn State. The view of the creek, with the sun shining through made for an ideal stay in nature.
