We had an amazing stay at the Spruce Creek farmhouse! The home is beautifully renovated, spotless, and just as described in the listing photos, if not better. Every amenity we could have asked for was thoughtfully included, making our stay comfortable and stress-free.It was the perfect spot for a big weekend, our daughter loved celebrating her Bday with family and friends, and we capped it off at the PSU Whiteout game. Highly recommend and would love to return!

A Little Slice of Heaven

This property is beautiful inside and out. Very nicely remodeled but still left the charm of the original house. The area is breathtaking, with a nice calming steam running throughout and dairy cattle coming to wish you good morning and good night. Highly recommend!

Quiet, relaxing and lovely

Stayed during parent and family weekend at PSU. House is absolutely beautiful, clean, serene and comfortable. Decorated beautifully. Comfortable beds and living room area. Great place to retreat from PSU. Not much around so bring your groceries or plan to eat out back in State College.

25 Year Anniversary Weekend

The Log Cabin was both charming and luxurious. We enjoyed sitting outside on the front porch in the rural setting, and the view of the Huntingdon Furnace was special. We selected the cabin so we could visit Penn State, where we met all those years ago; the drive to campus was lovely. The hosts and property were excellent. Would recommend and we hope to return!

Amazingly beautiful inside, beautifully landscaped with peaceful scenery all around.

Friends meeting in the area for a wedding, perfect location being only a couple of miles from the wedding. The home is absolutely amazing! Renovation was completed with attention to every single detail! Beautiful spaces indoor and out. Well furnished with comfy bedding, cozy furniture and well equipped kitchen. I will highly recommend this perfect spot for a peaceful overnight stay!

Beautiful House

This is a beautiful newly renovated property. My fiancée made comments about moving in lol. We were in town to support our daughter for the Olympic Trials in State college. The drive was very scenic going in and out of the property. If we are even in Pennsylvania (hopefully in 4 years) we will be on the lookout for this property.

Phenomenal place for a family

Fabulous place to stay - especially in the Fall. The house was meticulously clean and decorated to a T. The hosts, Laura and Matt, are very attentive. Loved waking up to a view of the cows. Will stay again for sure.
