This cottage was absolutely charming. It was beautifully decorated, clean and well equipped with everything needed for our stay and art retreat at a nearby farm. . The grounds were beautifully groomed and the cows even walkover to greet us. The owners nearby were very hospitable and friendly.

Peaceful & relaxing ☺️
We were in town for a concert at Penn State, only about 40 minutes from the stadium. The cottage was a perfect place to relax & unwind. The beds were so comfortable! It was very quiet, surrounded by farmland. Our family of 4 - my husband, myself & our 2 kiddos - 13 & 8, look forward to visiting again! Thank you to Joy & Keith for being wonderful hosts!

A wonderful little cottage on a big property.
A wonderful little cottage on a big property. Beautiful setting, extremely clean and cared for cottage. Great communication from the host. Its a shame we stayed on a rainy weekend so we did not get to take in much of the outdoors, but we plan to return.

Beautiful cottage, considerate owners
The cottage is very well kept. The owners take care of every small detail to make your stay comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped, plenty of clean towels, new soaps, etc. The location is beautiful, though a little far from the university. Joy and Keith are adorable hosts. Highly recommended.

Great communication. Cozy cottage. Very clean. Basic amenities there in case you didn't bring everything from home. You'll be in the country, but close to fun things to do as recommended by the owner. The cottage helped us have a reasonable ride home from Penn State football, instead of longer travel to get to our residence. Lots of rain over our weekend, so we missed hiking and pickleball. Those would have just been a bonus!
