This is my sister and my 5th time staying here since I have had two boys attend PSU. She found it 4 years ago and I couldn’t have been more happy she did. The place is so cozy and well maintained. Our host has always communicated with us so well. I absolutely cannot recommend this place more to visit and relax.

Fabulous place to stay - especially in the Fall. The house was meticulously clean and decorated to a T. The hosts, Laura and Matt, are very attentive. Loved waking up to a view of the cows. Will stay again for sure.

We had an amazing stay at the Spruce Creek farmhouse! The home is beautifully renovated, spotless, and just as described in the listing photos, if not better. Every amenity we could have asked for was thoughtfully included, making our stay comfortable and stress-free.It was the perfect spot for a big weekend, our daughter loved celebrating her Bday with family and friends, and we capped it off at the PSU Whiteout game. Highly recommend and would love to return!
