Downtown Boalsburg - close to State College and Rothrock

This cozy home is located on Main Street in Historic Boalsburg. The house features 2 first floor bedrooms and a full bath. There is a living room, dining room, kitchen and a large back deck. The house is walking distance to several nice restaurants, a new brewery, a winery, a new bike shop and the military museum. It is very close to Penn State - 5 miles to stadium. Great location to stay for several summer arts and craft festivals (Boalsburg Memorial Day Arts fest, People's Choice, Arts Fest). In addition, there is a bike park (Harvest fields nearby) as well as a indoor climbing gym. A few short miles away are several golf courses and the Tussey Mountain fun center. Mountain bikers, trail runners, hikers- this is a great location to stay while exploring Rothrock State forest.

Perfect for 2
This little cottage is perfect for 2. Comes complete with everything that you could possibly need. The only drawback is that the bathroom is very small and the water pressure is low. It's a perfect location to get anywhere that you need to go.

Beds were comfortable, really appreciated having a recliner, which hotels never have! And two TVs so we could watch different programs at the same time. Convenient to Penn State.

Charming home near State College
We had a wonderful stay with our small family. It has a lot of character and it super cozy. Both beds were very comfortable and the home is overly stocked with everything we needed (towels, kitchen supplies, paper towels, toilet paper, etc.). We will definitely try to stay in the future when we return to this area!

My sister-in-law and I came to town to celebrate an engagement party in Boalsburg. The location of the home was perfect. Boalsburg is very quaint and beautiful, and a central location—just a few miles from State College. Everything was clean and organized. Thank you so much. I hope to go back again if I visit State College.

Nice stay
We stayed at this property over the weekend of the 70.3 Ironman. The house was well located (only 10 min from the Beaver Stadium) and big enough for my wife, my father in law and the dogs. The back yard was fenced and pretty big, and it was nice to seat on the front porch enjoying the summer rain.

Nice cottage stay
Communication with host was easy from the start. Questions answered and timely responses. The cottage was just on the edge of Boalsburg which was wonderful and a safe location. The house had everything needed for our family and pet. The backyard was large but shared and our pup did not do well with the chicken coop. Overall the stay was nice and we so much appreciated having all the amenities of home.

We had a wonderful stay at Will and Dana’s place in Boalsburg! We were able to walk to Duffy’s Tavern, cute shops and Kelly’s steakhouse. Their house is just a short drive to Penn State, which made the location ideal! Checking in and out was a breeze and our hosts couldn’t have been more accomodating! Thank you so much Will and Dana! We hope to stay with you again very soon!

Great Boalsburg Home
We love this place! 2nd time we have stayed here. Clean & well equipped with all the essentials. Host is easy to communicate with & responds quickly. Our dog loves the large yard with this small home. It’s basically fenced in, but in certain places it’s less secure. So if your dog is apt to flee, then be more cautious. The larger bedroom has enough space for a dog bed on the floor. Nice neighborhood to walk around night/day. Great rental!!

PSU Football Weekend
We were very pleased with our accommodations. The location, the quaint village of Boalsburg, was excellent with some fine restaurants and a winery within walking distance. The house was very clean. It was very hot the day we arrived, but the owner had the fans and room air conditioners on when we checked in. There was a slight issue at check in, but it was rectified very quickly. Communication with the owner was excellent! We would definitely stay there again when visiting the area.
