Pennsylvania Furnace, Pennsylvania
This studio apartment makes a cozy cottage on a hobby farm property. The main room includes a made-up double Murphy bed which can be screened from the rest of the cottage, plus a futon which can be opened up to sleep two more. A full kitchen and bathroom are just up three steps.
HDTV and WiFi are included on site.
Parking is for up to three vehicles.
Just seven miles from campus and downtown State College, the cottage offers a quiet setting in which to kick back and relax before and after Penn State football games, graduations, and other events.
Location was well suited for attending a Penn State football game, as well as exploring downtown State College. Quiet and a bit rustic. Perfect for a couple. Host was very responsive and accommodating.
Cute studio cottage, perfect location for a game weekend.
Overall a good stay. Owner was very nice. The deadbolts on both entrances did not work which was not wonderful with having kids. The tub was needing some cleaning and the sheets had hairs on them. So overall just some cleaning and then it’s a 5 star.
Everything was as advertised! Perfect space for us and our friends to stay. Only 15minutes to the stadium!
My wife & I came up to visit our son for the whiteout football weekend. The property is a short, easy drive to State College. It was clean and exactly as advertised. The owner lives in a separate house on the property, which made check-in, check-out and and any communication very easy and convenient.
First, I cannot say enough kind words about Alan…he’s responsive & on the ball! We booked this property for 2 nights to visit our Penn State Freshman son for Family Weekend. It’s about a 15 minute drive to campus (so completely manageable). The pictures online are very accurate. We slept comfortably, all appliances worked, place was clean, etc. We had only 1 major complaint, the door locking. The lock is standard ‘twist’ on the handle plus a deadbolt but the ‘twist lock’ doesn’t work and the deadbolt doesn’t have the ‘attachment’ to lock/unlock. We finally found a way to shove the door closed and twist a ‘nub’ to get the door locked but it’s not an ideal situation. I’m sure Alan has already addressed this. One watch out: the couch/chairs are very worn/saggy, so while I think the couch is billed as a potential bed, I wouldn’t want to be the one sleeping on it. And lastly, for bonus points, Alan, I think pulling the weeds along the entry way would go a long way to saying ‘welcome to our place’. Alan, I wrote this b/c I received an email in your name asking for my input. Please know that this feedback is given in kindness, appreciation and well wishes. Best, Nancy
Alan was a great host. Great location and exactly as described and pictured.
Excellent experience
Stayed here for the first time for the PSU/OSU game. Just about 7 miles from campus, and all the amenities needed for a weekend stay: full kitchen, super-comfortable bed, updated bathroom, and plenty of space to move around. We spent little time in the cottage as we were out with our boys and tailgating most of the weekend, however, had we needed to spend more time here, the rental is comfortable and roomy, not at all cramped, and more spacious than other places we've stayed. Our host, Alan, and his wife Deb are friendly, and Alan was easy to communicate with and very accommodating. He made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. We have already re-booked for additional dates, and would highly recommend this VRBO. Thank you, Alan and Deb!
Alan is a great host. He met me promptly when I arrived in town and handed me a set of keys. The space is quite large, and all of the amenities made for a wonderful stay. This quite little farm cottage is perfect for any football weekend especially when its only 10-15 minutes from downtown. 100% recommend!
