Kid-friendly vacation rentals in State College

We had a great stay!! It was the perfect location. Everything we had planned to do was in a 10 minute driving distance. The house had a great vibe!! There was plenty of space for our group. If we are back that way again we would definitely book at Mim's!!

Lovely, unique place. We were a group of 6-8 and we had no issues with space. The place had all the amenities you would want. Superb spot, would stay again.

Perfect for a family visiting State College. Conveniently located just a short drive to campus and but nestled in a private, residential area. Will be staying here for future trips back to Penn State!

We thoroughly enjoyed our peaceful stay at Connie's Cottage. Jessie was accomodating and great with communicating. The area is rich with history and the walking path on the river is gorgeous and peaceful. Living spaces are super clean and comfortable with everything one could need. The screened in porch was a great place to enjoy the birds singing while reading a book. Overall great stay and would love to return in the future!

This is our third time staying at Matthew’s home so clearly we are fans! It has been the perfect stopping off point for us from the highway but if we had more time it would make a wonderful longer term stay because the surroundings are so beautiful and the hosts so warm. They are always so responsive although honestly there isn’t anything we have needed since they thought of it all!

Absolutely spotless everywhere. Probably the cleanest Airbnb we have encountered thus far. Very quaint and cozy just like Kathy describes it. The snacks were a very nice touch. The kitchen is fully stocked. Highly recommend it, hands down! Thank you Kathy and Jared!

What an incredible place to stay! This is a big old house with lots of wonderful surprises--a kids' nook with great toys, books for kids and adults, a s'mores kit in the larder, interesting art, great outdoor space...everything you could possibly want. There's even a cabinet with a sign that says it has antique serving dishes from the 1800s, and guests should "feel free to use any of these items." I have never felt so strongly, staying in an Airbnb, that the hosts were clearly deeply kind and lovely people. The house obviously means a lot to them, and we felt right at home there.

We enjoyed a family trip to this cabin. Although we got an unexpected 7 inches of snow so we didn’t get out to explore the area Steve and Diane had saucers for the kids to sled and had a fun hill to go down. The kids loved playing out in the snow. By the binder it seems like there is lots to do in the area and it would be fun to return in warmer weather to explore. The hosts have provided everything you could need for the stay, plenty of towels, and a fully stocked kitchen, we were surprised how great everything was. One note is the upstairs loft which has a queen and a trundle bed has lots of space but it is open to the downstairs (no walls or door). It is a great space but plan accordingly if planning to use it for little ones who may need to go to bed early or nap. We had a fabulous stay at this cabin.

The apartment was very cute. The host was extremely helpful and very easy to get in touch with. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting the area.

Greatly enjoyed our stay. Beautiful place inside and out. Amos was a fantastic host and was very quick to respond and provided accurate and prompt information. The house was a great value.

5 Stars – Amazing Stay with Exceptional Hosts! We had an incredible stay at this Penn State super fan household! From the moment we arrived, William & Family went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The home was spotless, comfortable, and full of thoughtful touches that made our stay extra special. Not only are they die-hard Penn State fans (which made for some great conversations!), but their generosity truly stood out. They provided extras like juice, milk, and muffins—such a kind and unexpected touch. On top of that, their dedication to coaching speaks volumes about the wonderful people they are. If you’re looking for a warm, welcoming stay with fantastic hosts, this is the place! We’d absolutely love to visit again.

I would love to stay here again! Everything was comfortable, safe, and accommodating. It’s the perfect place for a weekend up at Penn State and an easy walk to downtown State College.

I was very comfortable and Ruth and husband were very personable. It was located very close to all my friends and family. Perfect for my visit in all ways!!

My friend and I enjoyed our 3 night stay at the Jackson Mountain BnB. Our hosts were very responsive and even provided a propane grill to cook burgers on. The place is very clean and they have a nicely equipped kitchen. We highly recommend this if you're coming to the area.

The home was so cozy and very close to Woodward Skate Camp. Tanya was so kind and responsive and the home was beyond our expectations!! Highly recommend a stay here!!

very comfortable close to our family and friends Price is Right

My husband and I only live about 35 minutes from the condo and we decided to have a weekend away. It was fabulous the place was very clean and felt like home and sherry responded very quickly which was a plus. We are definitely staying again !!

Great place to stay great host

This clean and comfortable place was exactly as advertised. It was conveniently located for our weekend plans, minutes from the Allegrippis Trails. We appreciated the small details, like s'mores supplies, USB outlets, labeled drawers, and seasoned firewood with kindling. We would definitely stay here again!

Nice place 15 mins. from State College. Clean and comfy. Would stay again. Good communication.

My daughter and I enjoyed our stay. It was easy to get to the Bryce Jordan center and back each day. The place was very clean and cozy. Irina was very responsive to messages. The creek out back was tranquil

Great hosts and very responsive. Place was clean and so close to everything. Would stay here again.

The place was perfect! The creek behind was filled with trout and the location was close to surrounding fishing spots as well. Never needed to go more than 10min away from the condo. Clean and well maintained by Dan.
