Cheryl and Will’s guest house is fantastic. It really is a home away from home. We are so grateful for their hospitality for four days. They were even kind enough to shovel and salt the driveway and walkway after a snowy, icy night. Truly our stay was wonderful. We’ll be back! Thank you!

This was our first time staying here and we absolutely loved this spacious, clean, beautifully decorated house. Lots of thoughtful extras were provided, which was much appreciated. The neighborhood is quiet and it was quick to get around to where we needed to go. Sofas and beds were very comfortable and the television was easy to use. Enjoyed some time out back in Adirondack chairs in the private backyard with lovely surroundings. Cheryl was the perfect host. We look forward to staying here again!

The house and host are top notch. The house is so well stocked. It feels like you’re in a home. The beds are like sleeping in a 5 star hotel. Will always be our first check when we need a place to stay at state college.

Proximity was great, close enough to campus to enjoy all of the activities at PSU, but in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood with great views (winter) of Mt Nittany. Cheryl was a tremendous host, extremely responsive, and house was well appointed and comfortable...will visit again!

The location in cozy Lemont was perfect for a visit with my Son at PSU. With a coffee shop, brewery and restaurant w/in walking distance but only 5 minutes from campus driving, it was a great choice. Beds super comfy, large kitchen, lots of character in the home - we'll be back!

Perfect for our move-in weekend

My husband and I stayed at the guesthouse while we moved our daughter into her apartment before the beginning of her sophomore year. The house was quite spacious and comfortable. Very clean, room to sit and relax, both inside and out. We took advantage of the fire pit and enjoyed the cooler weather around the blaze. Beautiful neighborhood, huge backyard, plenty of space to relax after the work of moving. Highly recommend!

Happy Valley, Happy home!

What can I say but just the perfect stay at this wonderful home so close to campus. I was dropping my daughter off to summer classes at Penn State and she was nervous about being too far from home so I decided to stay in the home for the week while she got settled. Cheryl couldn't have made the stay more pleasant. My sisters ended up joining me but the yard and front porch were wonderful for our morning coffee and afternoon glass of wine and the home was perfectly appointed with everything you would need for your stay. The beds were super comfortable and really there is nothing I can say besides, thank your the amazing stay! we will be back for sure!
