Great location
Great location for fishing, or if you love the outdoors. Swimming, kayaking, tubing, fishing, and even cave tours all close by. Grocery market within 10 minutes if you need to pick something up. House was better than expected, clean, had everything we needed to cook our meals and ‘live’ for the week. Great fishing out front, easy access to the creek.

Penn State weekend
We rented to be close to State College for a football weekend, celebrating a birthday, and reunion of family! It was very easy to check in thanks to our host and great communication! I wish we could have taken advantage of the trails and fishing, but hopefully we will be back!

Cozy Retreat
We stayed for Penn State Family weekend. We were looking for somewhere near the university that would allow us to bring our dogs. We found Craig and Marias property. It is a creekside jewel. There was plenty of room - multiple beds in each bedroom plus the common area and a patio. The house has a beautiful yard with a walking path along the creek. We were able to spend time with our son on campus a straight 30min drive away and come back and enjoy quiet nature. A visit with a built in mini-vacation. Thank you!

Excellant
This is our second time staying at this property. The cabin is spotless, very well equipped, and so comfortable. My husband caught lots of 20 inch trout and was ecstatic. Unfortunately we had to leave early because of illness but Craig made it very easy for us. We will definitely be coming back, perhaps in the fall!

Creek side hideaway
It was a bit hard to find at night. The small bridge that you go over is very narrow and you MUST turn a quick left after it. There should be a sign right there with the street sign or a street light or something to tell folks to turn. The house is adorable. It is a good 35-40 min from State College through a windy roads with lots of farms and amish buggies to dodge. It was a wonderfully appointed house with comfy beds and everything you need in the kitchen. We didn't get to spend time in the lovely grounds but if you have time, it looked great.

Just right....
We truly enjoyed our trip to Coburn on the Creek. Craig was friendly, helpful, and a great communicator. The house offered everything we needed, from the large mud room to well-equipped space. I will say that we have stayed in more luxurious places, but this cottage offered everything we were looking for from the fishing, to beautiful views, to healthy environment, to excellent hosts. Try the nearby restaurant and brewery, too!

We had a great time at Coburn on the Creek. If you like to fish for trout, my husband says it is the best trout fishing in PA. The cabin was very clean, kitchen was well stocked and the bedrooms were very comfortable. We will definitely be coming back next year
