WELCOME!

Gently step into the quaint Norman Rockwell community. Lazily rock back and forth while sitting on the wrap around porch watching the townspeople on their evening walks. This is the same spot you watched the local parade go by yesterday, celebrating this town being the birthplace of Memorial Day.

Springfield House is a beautiful and charming place in the very heart of the “ Kinkadesculpture like”, Main Street of Boalsburg, Pennsylvania.

The property has been renovated over the past few years and is an absolutely turn- key opportunity! The near dreamlike facility has a strong following and capacity for even more guests to enjoy the well-appointed rooms, the private and serene sitting garden, and a location that allows guests to enjoy the village by foot or State College with a very short ride.

“Friends come for the lifestyle and come back for the experience”

Welcome to Springfield House!
