Peaceful Puzzletown, come enjoy the quiet at the foot of the mountains.

Come for a peaceful stay at the foot of the mountain, 54 miles from Penn State football, 12 miles from skiing. This lovely three bedroom house sleeps 6. The master bedroom adjoins the full bath, which can also be accessed from the hallway. The other two bedrooms offer a full-size bed and bunkbeds, great for family or friends. Bed, bath and kitchen linens are provided. This home includes fully equipped kitchen, with dining room and living area with Wi-Fi and TV with ROKU, to log in to all your subscription services. The carpeted downstairs family room provides a nice space to play games and relax with friends and family. A deck off the back of the house offers lovely views of the mountain, where you can hear the quiet rippling of the nearby stream and see deer and other wildlife pass through. A moveable fire ring makes the back yard a lovely place to sit and enjoy a starry night by the fire or a fun day playing games in the large yard. The attached garage lets you park and easily unpack for your stay. The full size washer and dryer are a great addition for cleaning up after a day of adventure or a week of relaxation. This house is nearly 2000sq/ft of living space and is situated on a large .70 acte lot. This is a clean smoke free and pet free property.

If you are a sports fan you can take in an Altoona Curve baseball game. It is also less than an hour away from Penn State and Beaver Stadium, making it a great place to stay before or after a game.

A home between homes

We stayed here while waiting to move into a new house. The house was clean and had plenty of room for my family of 6. The house was set back a bit from amenities,however this made it very peaceful. The host was very accommodating allowing other family to visit us. The host was also quick to respond to any questions or concerns we had during our stay. This house will be a place we will continue to stay when visiting family.

Just what we needed!

Host was accommodating by allowing us to have family over during the day for a graduation gathering. As the weather was iffy with rain, the home allowed us to host with ample room when it rained. The host is responsive and accommodating (allowed us to bring our own grill) and also provided an outdoor solo fire pit. Bedrooms are a nice size. Location is great with nice backyard. Comfortable home!

Accurate and peaceful location

Location is out in the country. It’s private and peaceful with a beautiful yard. I would suggest improving the bedding. For example, the mattresses needs to be updated, but everything else was great.
