Attn. boaters! Bald Eagle State Park & lake very close , 30 min. to PSU or LHU.

New as of Jan. 2024! Whether you like fishing, swimming, boating on the lake, or you are part of the Nittany Lion Family, "The Love Shack" offers a private family setting nestled in the foothills of state game lands and only 5 miles from the lake and Bald Eagle State Park. Private back yard and outdoor pavilion (cable TV and heat options), hot tub, parking (for your boat trailer if need be), living room with open floor plan to dining room and kitchen. Vaulted ceiling with open balcony connecting two upstairs bedrooms. Large cooled/heated family room for watching sports, relaxing or playing games with family and friends while keeping an eye on the wildlife that creep into the back yard for late night snacking. Lots of floor space in the upstairs bedrooms (and family room) if you need room for air mattresses or pack and plays. Kitchen is stocked for all your cooking from home needs or pack the car and go to State College for almost every dining option imaginable! Groceries (Walmart Supercenters) in either direction (State College or Mill Hall, approximately 13-15 miles away). Verizon cell service only/WiFi/Dish TV. Three large screen TVs (living, family and master BR) with an option for outdoor cable TV in pavilion if requested in advance of stay. We love the water, woods and reasons to smile! We hope that "The Love Shack" brings you memories you can take with you after staying with us!

Everything about the property was wonderful. The house was clean and comfortable, felt very livable. The outside was quiet and secluded, providing a peaceful and relaxing environment to enjoy. Every space was thoughfully decorated and furnished. Would definately recommend and plan to stay again.

The Love Shack was an excellent getaway for our group trip. The house was spotless and accommodating for all we needed. Jane goes above and beyond thinking of all you may need during your stay. From extra chargers, plenty of blankets, and bathroom necessities to water, wine and chocolates, it was superb! We spent the day in State College and Bellefonte shopping and eating then relaxed for the evening. The hot tub is an added touch!
