Old Farmhouse in Rural Setting, between Penn State and Bucknell

The 1870s farmhouse is a great place to stay if you're looking for a rural retreat in Pennsylvania. It's located in a small village surrounded by family farms, mostly Amish, so you'll be able to experience a peaceful and authentic slice of Pennsylvania Dutch life. The property is also close to several universities; Penn State, Bucknell, Lycoming, and Lock Haven, a trophy trout stream, state game lands, and a state forest, so there's plenty of outdoor activities to enjoy. And the clear night sky with little light pollution makes it a great place for stargazing.
Here are some of the pros and cons of the property:
Pros:
Rental is for the house, excluding the unfinished summer kitchen, all three bedrooms, kitchen, laundry, and living room.
Rural location with Amish neighbors
Close to several universities, a trophy trout stream, state game lands, state forest lands and state parks
Clear night sky for stargazing
Lawn with fire pit and plenty of parking
Local TV stations and a disc player with movies
Easy distance to the Little League World Series
Events at Beaver Stadium and the Bryce Jordan Center
Centre County Grange Encampment and Fair, and multiple craft shows in the Centre and Clinton County area
Central Pennsylvania Festival of the Arts, July 11-14 downtown State College
Peoples Choice Festival of Pennsylvania Arts & Crafts, July 11-14, Grange Park in Centre Hall
Sentimental Journey Fly In, June 18-23 Lock Haven (Home of the Piper Cub)
Little League World Series, August 14-25, Little League Complex in South Williamsport
Truckers 4 Hope, September 27-29 Clinton County Fairgrounds Mill Hall
Cons:
No WiFi (hot spot needed for internet TV use)
Only one local restaurant and a pizza and sub shop
30 minute drive to more restaurants and shops
Overall, our 1870s farmhouse is a great place to stay if you're looking for a relaxing and peaceful vacation in Pennsylvania. The property has a lot to offer, and the only real downside is the lack of WiFi. However, if you're not a heavy internet user, I think you'll be able to enjoy your stay without it. Those arriving here from the east on I-80, will know you are close when you see the Pennsylvania Wilds sign, a bull elk on the keystone, along the highway. Five minutes from an Interstate 80 exit puts our middle of nowhere place in the middle of many sought out destinations.

Fantastic Stay

Such an amazing house with a fantastic location. Beautiful scenery and so fun learning about the Amish communities nearby. We had absolutely everything we needed for the stay. We came up for our daughter's graduation from Penn State and our family stayed for a few days. Hosts were very kind and helped us with a few ideas of where to explore locally. Highly recommend!

Wonderful & Welcoming Stay

We had a great experience during our stay . The hosts, Tim & Mary, were easy to communicate with and so welcoming. The home is clean and cozy with the necessary amenities- we were all very comfortable. We stayed here after an event at Penn State, so we didn't get to spend much time on the property, however it was easy access from route 80, and located in a quiet, beautiful and scenic area. I would definitely recommend this stay for anyone looking in the area.

Lovely Home

Our hosts were very responsive to all my questions before we booked and were so welcoming when we arrived! The home was very comfortable and very convenient to both Lock Haven (for graduation) and Penn State (my alma mater and grad dinner). So relaxing to sit on the front or side porch to read a book between our 'events'. We would definitely come back again...maybe for a PSU football game!
