Graduation weekend
This house was perfect for us for graduation weekend. With 2 sets of grandparents and our teenage son, there was plenty of space. It is convenient to campus and downtown so we could go back and forth as needed to attend various events and spend time with our graduates and friends.

Great home near PSU for groups
We had a great stay at Matthew’s house. The house was way bigger than expected, as it has 4 traditional bedrooms plus two additional “bedrooms” in the basement with futons. As a group of 7 we didn’t not utilize the downstairs at all, but it would be great for a larger group and some air mattresses. Matthew’s house was clean, had easy check in/checkout, and situated about 10 min to Beaver Stadium. Overall we had a great time and would definitely come back!

Great location to visit PSU
The property is in a great neighborhood close to Penn State and all State College has to offer. The house was clean and easy to access. The listing indicates the master bedroom contains a king bed, but all beds in the home are queen size. We had some problems connecting to the TV streaming, but the host was very responsive to our questions.There is lots of space for a family (or two) to gather - lots of bedrooms and multiple living room spaces. We had an enjoyable weekend.

Delightful place
Conveniently sited, easy to find, exactly as described and very comfortable. Wished I had time for a longer stay.
Lovely option for a Penn State weekend with a family or group. Super clean, large house. Close to campus but out of the fray. Enjoyed our stay!
