Stay Minutes from Penn State in a luxury Tiffin Phaeton 42ft Motor Home

10/10 Excellent
"My husband and I bought Penn State football tickets and could not locate one vacant hotel room near the stadium. So I searched outside the area and located this gem. I've never stayed in an RV before, and this RV was so nice!! The RV was spacious and very clean. It literally looks brand new. I felt right at home. It has a large seating area and full kitchen if you want to prep simple meals inside. The king size bed was comfortable with a sleep by number remote system separate for each side of the bed. There are TVs in the living and bedrooms, central air & heat, and a powder and bathroom. Plenty of comfort and amenities for a small family.The wooded area where the RV is located is slightly uphill from the owner's home and has an outdoor grill and fire ring. The friendly owners came up to show us how to use the systems in the RV, which was necessary and helpful, and they then left us to our privacy. We enjoyed meeting them and having lively conversation. Very down-to-earth people!We sat outside by the fire after dark and just relaxed listening to the night sounds and gazing at the stars. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would definitely stay again! Highly recommended."
