Summary: Me and several of my friends travel every year for a guys weekend. We had a wonderful stay at this property. We drove to State College for game day and fished the Raystown lake. We enjoyed the game room for pool and football watching and enjoyed the campfire area every nigth we were there. The location was great, secluded and away from people. Ample kitchen ware for cooking, great grill and hot tub.

Summary: The house was in a beautiful setting and the walls of windows made the indoors bright and lovely. We enjoyed numerous on-site activities with the pool table, corn hole, fire pit and hot tub. The kitchen was well-stocked with cooking supplies, the beds were comfortable, and there was plenty of room for our family of 4 adults. We will definitely recommend it to our friends and other family members.
