Had a great stay at Lisa’s home! Check in was seamless and the house was nice! Though there was a pullout sleeper sofa and a queen bed advertised, though it was really just a regular sofa and a queen air mattress. Overall, it worked out and was super convenient to get to the game.

The home was was close enough to the stadium that several of my adult children walked home from the game. House was clean and accommodated our family of 8 comfortably. The hostess communicated promptly and check in was easy.

The home is very well stocked as we enjoyed cooking breakfast both mornings!! We enjoyed the welcome charcuterie board our first night that our host provided! We did have a difficult time trying to regulate the thermostats. Other then that the location and home were awesome!

The House in the Trees was a perfect selection for our PSU Football weekend. The house has all of the amenities that you need and is roomy and comfortable! We were able to walk to the stadium - but if you wanted it is only a 5 minute Uber! I would stay here again for sure!

The home was fantastic: super close to College Ave and all of State College, everything you needed was provided, clean and tidy, and wonderful communications with the owner. Next visit with our daughter, we hope this home is available!

The property was as advertised. As multiple reviews had previously stated, there is significant truck traffic that can be heard from the house. But the house was lovely and we found a great park down the road. We also figured out how to walk the 2 miles to the stadium through the parks for the game. We enjoyed our stay.

We were in town for the Penn State v Illinois football game. The property is a short & easy drive to campus. The home is a well cared for 3 bedroom & is fully stocked with the essentials. It has a roomy family room with a comfy sectional sofa & a big TV. It was chilly so we didn’t spend time outdoors but there is some distant road noise back behind the house. Would stay here again!

Road noise makes it difficult to enjoy deck and stream
The deck and deck furniture had a lot of outdoor debris
Outside landscaping has great potential but not maintained.
The indoors and amenities are very good.
Get rid of firepit and BBQ if they cannot be used.

The pictures on VRBO were very inviting. Upon arrival, it was difficult to find the rental due to hidden address. Luckily a neighbor came by and advised us. Then we did not receive the lock code and had to call the owner and VRBO for it. In the ad pictures a very nice patio area and furniture was shown. This is totally untrue. The patio was very dirty with no cushions just the bare metal frames. We did find the cushions in an outside storage box, but they were very dirty and did not use them. Overall very disappointed with the house for the price we had to pay for it.

We loved the view outside the large windows and all the amenities more than met our needs. My reason for not rating this a straight 5/5 was the property's proximity to a road with significant truck traffic. While the trees block the view of the traffic, there is significant road noise at all hours.

We had a great week dog walking, mountain biking, and walking to dinner at Voodoo Brewery, Maine Bay and Berry and Happy Valley Brewery.

This was a perfect spot to gather our family for a weekend away, where we could hike, but also relax on the spacious deck spaces. We enjoyed breakfasts and dinners outside, as well as sitting by the stream in the lower yard. The kitchen was well furnished for cooking dinners, but there were also numerous options if we had wanted to dine out.
