Thanks again for the great rental! We all had an amazing time and we really hope to book your place again in the future! We loved everything about the place, the rooms and beds were comfortable, the two bathrooms worked out great for our party, and the large dinner table was perfect for our family style dinner on day one. Unfortunately, due to weather, we didn't get around to using the fire pit outside, but everything looked great out there and it just led us to get great use out of the hot tub, which was fantastic! The coffee bar set up, and all the toiletries provided were just amazing and such a nice treat for guests; all the little touches really made our trip spectacular! Thank you for everything, for being great hosts and always being quick to answer my questions. It's a great rental and we appreciated all the hospitality, look out for our rental requests next year in the warmer months ;)!

Loved our stay at the Land of the Lions
The house was very clean, loved that the decor was everything Penn State, and situated in a nice neighborhood. We loved all of the amenities - game room, media room, hot tub, etc. Jennifer was a great hostess, she is very caring and responds quickly to any questions that you may have. Video instructions are provided for everything in the home. Definitely recommend to anyone that is looking for a vacation rental in State College. We would not think twice about returning to the home for a Penn State football weekend! Thanks Jennifer for sharing your home with us.

Amazing Graduation Celebration Home
This home is amazing! We went for my son's graduation from Penn State and it is the ULTIMATE PSU home in the area! We all felt at home the whole time, it has everything you can ever want in a rental. From atmosphere, fun to stocked kitchen and home. Jennifer is amazing! She made sure my whole family was welcomed and made my son feel so incredibly special on his big day. We have stayed at other locations in state college and this place by far is worth every penny. Quality sheets, bedding, towels, supplies....so much more than a rental property. It truly was a home away from home. Nothing better than ending a long weekend relaxing in a beautiful back yard and hot tub. Jennifer, we can never thank you enough for making graduation weekend so amazing! We will be back to visit for some football games!

Perfect Stay!
We had eight adult female family members spending a long weekend together and this was the perfect place to do it. The house is great, so much to do with the hot tub, game room, games, and more. Lots to do in the area too. Wineries, festivals, caverns, shopping, breweries, etc. We never ran out of entertainment. The house was very clean and so much fun. Having full kitchens on both floors was very convenient. Jennifer was a perfect host. She stayed in touch, responded very quickly and keeps the property well stocked. Can’t go wrong here and if you’re a Nittany Lions fan, you’re in for a special treat. Highly recommend!!

Great wkend
House was great. Wkend was great. Only one issue. Apparently there are cameras on the outside of the house that are monitored and noise detection inside the home. We had a group of 11 stay at the home and my daughter and her 3 friends came and visited. We ate , drank and some of the women were singing. We were getting calls and being accused of having a party inside the house. Literally doing what a group of people do when they get together to have fun. I guess all we are allowed to do here is drink tea and watch movies. The calls stopped and we had a great rest of our wkend. The house is great , surveillance is not.

The house was perfectly clean and as advertised. The ultimate PSU fan house! 4 bedrooms, all good size makes it easy to share with friends. Only about 2 miles from the stadium made it very easy for game day. Would definitely stay again.
