Very nice B&B and the perfect peaceful place to rest my head after a long day of moving my student into Penn State. Easy to get to from campus and they were very flexible in terms of a check-I’m time.

We stayed one night at the B and B and Connie was wonderful in welcoming us to the property and making sure we were comfortable. The property was very quaint and unique. Our room was very comfortable and clean and the shared bathroom was very clean. The breakfast was amazing and Connie was very attentive.

We stayed here after moving our daughter into her dorm at Penn State. It was convenient to get to after a long, tiring day, and our hosts were so accommodating with our arrival time. A charming, comfortable, clean, and lovely place to stay! Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking to stay in the area but not in a traditional hotel.

Riffles and Runs is a hidden gem right outside of State College, PA!! The proprietors are warm and friendly, establishing a wonderful “homey” feel, while giving you the space you may want/need (typical of a five star hotel feel). If you’re lucky enough to enjoy coffee and/or breakfast - get ready to want to move in permanently!! I’ll come back and highly recommend you make a trip to Riffles and Runs!!!!

Fantastic B&B

Hosts are wonderful, very welcoming and gracious. They very kindly messaged in preparation for our arrival, provided wonderful resources for our stay, and created a lovely atmosphere for the long weekend. Additional touches like coffee outside of our room in the morning and Connie’s wonderful cookies on arrival were so thoughtful! And I’m not sure I’ve ever had two more delicious breakfasts!!!

I had wonderful stay when I went for a Penn State football weekend. It was so homey and Connie and Steve were such great hosts I felt like I was staying with family. The coffee tray outside the room in the morning was a great touch, and the Crème Brûlée French toast (and perfectly crispy bacon) for breakfast was out of this world! I appreciated being an easy drive from the University while away from the hustle and bustle and much more reasonably priced than anything in State College. Thanks also for the flexibility on check-in time, breakfast time, and excellent communication!

This was a beautiful colonial home built in 1809 restored and decorated magnificently to a B&B. Connie and Steve are amazing hosts and Connie’s cooking and baking were all world. Absolutely loved it and Bellefonte PA is a beautiful small town 15 mins from Penn State :) Thank you again Connie and Steve. Doug and Hilary

Nice hosts in a traditional BnB. Nice house and comfortable bed. Connies cooking was very good, and I really enjoyed both breakfasts and the coffee outside our door in the morning. Only note is that the bathroom is shared, but it is very clean and comfortable.

The property is wonderfully appointed but what makes the whole experience priceless is the owners customer service. Connie and Steve can't do enough for you when you stay with them. From the fresh baked chocolate cookies waiting in your room at check in to the fresh brewed coffee waiting outside out door in the morning, they made our B&B experience incredible. The owners make you feel like your part of their family. This is truly a great find .
