Lovely house with ample property. Bedrooms were well furnished with beautiful furniture and soft linens. You can tell the owner has taste and style.
Kitchen was well equipped for a large family gathering. Bathrooms had charm and character. House layout was perfect for a family gathering while also providing privacy.
The pool and patio was lovely with a big back yard. Deck chairs could be updated but did not distract from a great experience.
Would highly recommend a stay at this location.

House is clearly actively lived in. Refrigerator filled with food. Cabinets filled with dry goods, open packaging, etc. Coffee maker had not been cleaned in enough time for the full filter basket to become full of mold.
Homeowner accused our group of entering the property up to 90 minutes early - untrue. Very unpleasant experience.

I'm so glad I found this property. We were looking for a relaxing, pet friendly spot for us to stay close to the Pine Creek Bike Trail. Not too far from Hershey and the Lancaster Amish Community, so if you're looking for a place to relax while visiting either of those, this is your place. More than enough room for our large family. Very quite neighborhood. Close to downtown. Wonderful pool area and back yard for our pooch to romp around and chase squirrels (don't worry, they are too fast for her, she can't possibly catch them). Lisa was very helpful in finding local places to eat and shop. Would definitely book here again!

The house was so big and had everything we needed for our small friend reunion during Homecoming weekend. Lisa was so helpful and we will absolutely try to come back again!

My family came to stay for a funeral and wanted to stay together. This place was prefect as we sat both inside which was cozy and outside which is beautifully landscaped. Also the proximity to all the places we had to go in Bellefonte and State College was very helpful….plus a grocery store nearby. Highly recommend the stay.

Paid for 4 nights/stayed 16 hrs. Listing fails to disclose that this home presents like a messy occupant lives here full-time.Choose wisely, we never would’ve rented.MASSIVE amount of personal items, no room for 10 guests’ food/belongings in this inhabited home. Bathrooms: hairy razors and open bottles FILL tub/shower space; open Q-tips, wipes, liquids/creams in all cabinets.Every bedroom/hall closets/drawers: shoved full of unorganized clothes/shoes, papers,toiletries,jewelry,etc.Kitchen:dirty Keurig;fridge door filled with used butter,sauces,oils,creams;freezer piled with items(including half-eaten cake); all cabinets with opened food/medicine.Dirty pool;large hazardous pile of chemicals/dirty toys/hoses/debris. Called Host Lisa,who frantically arrived and SCREAMED at us(6 kids present)for having concerns and for interrupting her swimming/dinner. She shoveled freezer items into a bag, took razors,stormed out. Messaged saying she’d give a $50 refund for the hairy razors(never did)and clean the pool the next day.Ignored other issues.We left at morning light.Lisa later sent pics of: 1. A room corner, accusing us of moving furniture and trying to con us out of $100; 2.Towels on hooks, but alleging towels were left on floor; 3.Bath cabinets, calling them “ransacked”(exactly the way we found them-and every other cabinet upon arrival-and why we sent pics of such to VRBO immediately.) VRBO reviewed and refunded us their profit plus partial refund. Lisa refused to refund her profit.

Please BEWARE! I have been a member of VRBO since 2016 and never had a bad experience until now.
I thought about booking this property to bring in the New Year with my family, my cousin's family, and two other families that are close friends.
Upon requesting to book the host strongly reiterated "no parties". We weren't planning to have a party, but it was New Years Eve and we were getting together with friends and family to bring in the New Year. We weren't planning to throw a party but then again I didn't know her definition of a party.
I saw in the properties prior reviews that she had problems with her neighbors and that other people had bad experiences.
I immediately asked the Host NOT TO ACCEPT MY REQUEST as I was reconsidering the property. I wanted to bring in the New Year on a great note not have problems. I started looking around the VRBO app to cancel my request and the Host accepted my request thereby charging my credit card.
My exact words were "I really don't want to take the chance, please deny the reservation".
I was flabbergasted. I asked her to cancel and she said she wouldn't cancel because she would get penalized from VRBO for canceling. I couldn't cancel without losing the entire cost of the trip because she has a 60 day cancelation policy, but I still had hope. She had said she wouldn't cancel because she didn't want to get penalized by VRBO, so if I could call VRBO and find a way for her to cancel without penalty then she should do it.
I called VRBO, explained my situation, gave the person helping me permission to read out exchanges, and he strongly agreed with me. He found a way for VRBO to allow the cancelation without the host getting penalized based on the chat between the host and I. I was relieved. He called the host, explained to her that he arranged a way that she wouldn't get penalized - and she refused to cancel! After 1.5 hours on the phone the VRBO representative told me in not so many words that even though he completely agreed with me that he could not reverse the reservation.
It only gets worse from here. After telling the host how dissatisfied I was and that I only wanted to bring in the New Year on a good note it only got worse. She stated she no longer trusted my group for self check-in and would have to meet us at the house and videotape us checking in. I found that really absurd. I have 6 years of good ratings on VRBO.
I'm out of space for the review but the story gets worse

Property is in a beautiful, quiet section of town about 15 minutes from the stadium. House is spacious with plenty of room - great for a group. Appliances are updated and everything is very clean. Host is great with quick responses to questions. Would definitely rent again...thanks!

The Robin's Nest was an awesome place for 14 of us to enjoy PSU. We had ages 5 to 70. There was plenty of room inside and outside of the house.
The host was available for any of our concerns.

Our family enjoyed the weekend at Robin's Nest! We celebrated 2 birthdays and the PSU Cheer Family Weekend (we have a freshman cheerleader). Our group included 2 sets of grandparents and adult children. The home was large with plenty of bedrooms for everyone! Beds were comfortable and we enjoyed the charming details of the mid century modern home. Thank you for hosting us!

I could go on and on about spacious rooms inside the house, but it is the back of the house that makes this rental wonderful. Two levels of porches! Very large pool! Huge fenced in backyard! Even the less outdoorsy of our group LOVED the outside areas. We will be back!

Great stay!
Great stay for soccer moms with our girls! House has great character & charm. We loved the layout, how clean the house is, amazing yard with total privacy! We will stay again when we come back for PSU visits. Approximately 17 minutes to the stadium!

Family get together
Everything was great from the rooms to the backyard and pool . We had a family get together with 9 adults and 1 child staying in the house and everyone had their own spaces and places to relax. We are starting to plan for another stay next year.
