About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Twin Ridge Retreat

Basement apartment in a rural country setting, nestled between two mountains. We're only10 miles from Route 322, halfway between Harrisburg and State College. Minutes from Juniata Valley Winery (literally only 3 miles down the road) and Port Royal Speedway (8 miles).

Make this your Home Away From Home! This is a finished basement with all the comforts of home. Full kitchen, large livingroom, bedroom and 3/4 bath. Enjoy watching the chickens and goats grazing in the meadow. There's a swingset outside that your children are welcome to use. Build a campfire in the fire ring and roast hotdogs and marshmallows for supper!

To help muffle the chaos and commotion of normal family life, we did as much sound proofing as possible. We will try to keep the noise down in the mornings but please be aware......... we live here and you WILL hear us!

Other things to note:

The basement is yours, with the exception of the small cold storage room that goes off the kitchen. Also the water heater and furnace room goes off the bathroom.

If you are not comfortable with using the gas (propane) stove, there is also an electric single coil burner in the kitchen for you to cook with.

Cell phone service may be poor in the basement but there is WiFi available.

Just what I needed

I had a last minute commitment in State College, this was the perfect location to stay the night before and night after a full day conference. They made it homey and offered local eating options, I wish I had been able to try them. If you’re looking for a spot to star gaze, this would be it.

Just like home

We absolutely enjoyed our time at the Twin Ridge Retreat!! We were in town for a few days of racing. It was so nice to have access to all of the amenities from home. The fresh milk and eggs in the fridge were delicious!!

A Blessed Retreat!

We were blessed by this retreat for the weekend while we enjoyed a wedding at the Juniata Valley Winery. Please understand the culture and environment you are booking in and you will be blessed also. This a great family and all the extras of breakfast items and homemade cinnamon rolls were just perfect for us! We enjoyed our stay with this beautiful family!

Bed was a hard/firm mattress. Shower is for short people. Those of us over 5 ft have to duck. Otherwise very nice rental.

Felt like home

We decided to book this cute little apartment for a local gymnastics meet that we were in town for. The owners of the house were super sweet. check-in was very convenient even at 10 PM, the owners were understanding And still greeted us with a smile in the driveway. This place reminded me of simple living; a nice slowdown in life to enjoy the little things. It would be a great place to get away to for some r&r. It was very accommodating to our needs and we can’t wait to stay again in March for our spring meet!
