Secluded Mountain House near State College & Huntingdon, PA
Get away for a mountain top experience in this secluded mountain house where wild life can be enjoyed with your morning coffee along with a breathtaking view. Experience quiet solitude in the central PA mountains yet you are about 30 minute drive to State College with all the activities of Penn State University and Football. The three bedrooms comfortably sleeps 6. A wood stove in the basement, gas fireplace upstairs, whole house heating and air conditioning and an emergency generator system guarantee your comfort no matter what is happening outside. In the winter 4 wheel drive is necessary to drive up the steep gravel lane in ice and snow. Enjoy hiking trails on our 115+ acres of property which has access to Stone Creek, an active trout stream. Also Whipple Dam, Greenwood Furnace State Park, Rothrock State Forest and Raystown Lake are a short drive away. The mountain house adjoins Spotted Hart Stables, home to our 12 Appaloosa horses which can be seen grazing in their hillside pastures. On a stroll through the forest you may catch a glimpse of Ghazi our 3 time Appaloosa national champion endurance horse out for a training ride or experience the soaring of bald eagles on mountain air currents. Wildlife abounds for you to experience. End your day with s'mores around an evening campfire watching the sun set with brilliant colors that change every day behind the next mountain. As you wait for the stars to appear unhindered by background light, peace and tranquility will take on a new meaning for you. The opportunity to antique shop, visit a winery, enjoy Amish & country cooking awaits your visit to Belleville. Small town charm, architecture and Raystown Lake await your visit to Huntingdon. If you prefer the more upscale modern restaurants and shopping experience, State College is happy to supply your desires. Whether you are looking for that quiet getaway with friends & family or are looking for a more private peaceful convenient location to access State College activities, the mountain house will become your home away from home. We will attempt to provide for any special requests and look forward to helping you find peace and relaxation on your stay.
