Spacious Private Escape
Our group of 8 adults stayed at this beautiful house for a concert weekend getaway. The house was very spacious allowing everyone to have their privacy yet also providing many gathering rooms for the group to hangout together and have fun. The house was more than what we expected and was well stocked with linens, towels and household needs. We will definitely rent this house again in the future when in the State College area!
