Our Guest House is nestled in the quaint village of Lemont with a view of Mt. Nittany out the back door. Conveniently close to downtown State College and everything Penn State. Enjoy a hike up Mt. Nittany, coffee at Cafe Lemont and/or dinner at Kamri Thai and Sushi House, Happy Valley Brewing or the Voodoo Brewery! It's all here. This cute cape cod was built in 1946 and has been completely renovated. A firepit and patio for relaxing outside. If you have 6 or 7 guests coming, we will open up the basement for you to use, so you will have an extra bedroom, bathroom and living room!
Each bedroom has it's own bathroom. The upstairs bedrooms are set up each with a Smart TV. The basement living space has a 74" TV and a foosball table.
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!
Beautiful remodel of an older house. We loved seeing the pictures of it from decades past! Lots of extras, like snacks, coffee, laundry supplies, toiletries, etc. Very comfortable beds and nice linens! Convenient to State College and perfect for our trip; would definitely stay again!
It's a nice property in a quiet neighborhood. Close to downtown and the campus, but far enough away to not be caught up in the hustle and traffic. Clean house. Would return.
The house and host are top notch. The house is so well stocked. It feels like youâre 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.
Lovely home in a great location and the host quickly responded to my questions. When we visit this area again this will be hands down our first choice for lodging!!!
Great property, well taken care of, much larger than it appears in the photos. Excellent place to take a family, and the host is super responsive in the event you need anything. Highly recommend!
Great house in an excellent location. Close to everything. Tons of space for the 6 of us. Very quiet location! The Dad side of me liked the number of smoke/carbon monoxide detectors and fire extinguishers in the house. Also like the emergency contact numbers posted on the fridge.
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!
Stayed for PSU, Maryland game over Thanksgiving weekend. Charming, immaculate home with every amenity! Hosts were very gracious and accommodating ! We will be back!
We were in town visiting Penn State and the home was in a great, quiet location. The owner has the home well stocked with food and amenities and the home is well cared for and clean. Would recommend. Thanks for your hospitality!
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!
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!
We stayed in this property while my daughter had a soccer tournament nearby. It was 15min from the field, 15min from downtown and 15min from UNCG where she will be attending next year. Perfect amount of space to stretch out in the common area. Small patio with firepit where we enjoyed the sun. We will def be staying here again. Thank you!
Very nice and comfortable setup for several people. With 3 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, there's lots of flexibility...The kitchen is nice and there is also a rec room downstairs and a fire pit outside. Check-in was super-easy, and Uber rides to the campus was quick and convenient.
We came for a football game and had a lovely time at this property! Quiet street, beautiful views, comfortable, roomy, with everything we needed for our stay. We loved the fire pit and the sitting room sunrise!
Hi! My name is Cheryl and I am a mom of four boys and love all things outdoors. I have lived in State College for the past 25 years. I love people and especially to host people and when the opportunity came up to purchase and renovate the property next door to us, my family jumped on it. It was our Covid project and kept us busy for the first 6 months of it. I wanted to make it a space for families and friends to be comfortable so they can have quality time together. So, we opened it up as a short term rental and have loved it! Because of my love for people and homes in this area, I am also a realtor through a local brokerage, so if you need any help, just let me know!
The beauty of this property is the gentleman that lived there for his whole life and the stories that came out of it as we neighbored together. The house is quaint and cute with backyard that is perfect for feeling like your just literally sitting at the base of Mt. Nittany. Our house is literally right next door, so we have had the opportunity to meet such incredible people from around the world through this!
