The Aaronsburg Inn

We had a great stay and will come back for another weekend get away. Jack was great and created the best breakfast, the room was on the street and we could hear the clip clop of the horses going by in the evening. We highly recommend the Aaronsburg Inn. Steve and Brenda Ettien

We stumbled upon The Aaronsburg Inn on the internet after frantically searching for a hotel near Penn State University. We had shied away from B & B's for years due to children and allergies. But with all hotels in State College sold out for Blue and White Weekend we decided to give a B & B a try and were pleasantly surprised. I own vacation rentals and am very particular about details and cleanliness. Aaronsburg was spot on with crisp sheets, night lights, toiletries, robes, fluffy towels and many other small details. There were no pets or musty, old house smells to irritate allergy sufferers. We stayed in Room #5 which was in ideal layout since we were traveling with our 15 year old son. There was two separate rooms so everyone had their own space. Breakfast was amazing. Jack is a skilled chef. I am a very light sleeper and found the rooms to be soundproof. The rural location is a nice change from hectic State College. We will surely return. Ken, Lisa & Phill, New Hope, PA

Warm and friendly service. Jack is a very good cook. Ask for the mushroom, bacon, goat cheese omlet. It's fantastic. You won't need another meal until supper time. It's a good place to stay if you're visiting PSU. You can hear the Amish go by in their horse-drawn carriages, and the little town of Arronsburg has a good restaurant for dinner. Very good beer selection.

Pleasant and comfy suite. A library to browse. Home-made artisanal breads are among the hearty breakfast items. A kindly innkeeper stoked the fireplace and oriented us to local amenities.

The country village settled in a wide valley between low mountains and unspoiled starlit skies and expanses of field and streams running everywhere brings a person back to an earlier time. The folk in the area are friendly and open. The Inn also makes one feel as if one had breached a time zone and stepped back into a living history. We had the place to ourselves and retired to the library in the evening in our nightgowns. The innkeeper is very friendly and cooks the most marvelous brealfast. The rooms were in keeping with the historic atmosphere, the bedss comfortable and the bathrooms modern and spacious. There is plenty to do and see, as well as shopping at the local artisans galleries. It is a wonderful experience!

Breakfast and service as always is great! Spotless room and bath.

A wonderful inn with great service and fantastic breakfast. Will definitely stay here again when in the area and highly recommend to others.

Would have scored higher for room but pillows needed to be replaced (very flat) and there was no where to hang clothes other than the hook on the bathroom door, inside the bathroom. Otherwise a great visit.

I stayed for two nights. Jack showed me around and explained where everything was located. He made it very comfortable. The room was sparkling, the towels, linens were beautiful. The bed as comfortable as can be.

My family and I had a very enjoyable night staying at the Inn. The assistant Innkeeper, Pat, welcomed us when we arrived, gave us a quick tour, and made sure we were comfortable for the night. Breakfast in the morning was delicious.

A very comfortable bed, fantastic breakfast, very relaxing and wonderful hosts! Thank you!

A wonderful and relaxing experience. Elegant rooms, fantastic breakfasts and wonderful hosts. This is a first class place all the way!

We spent one night at this lovely inn on the way to pick up my daughter from Camp Woodward. The room was very nice and we had an outstanding breakfast the next morning. I would definitely stay here again.

Pat, the owner, was very accommodating. We told her we needed to get an early start, so she offered to make breakfast earlier than usual. Breakfast was wonderful: omelettes with a choice of cheeses, onions, mushrooms, tomatoes, and green peppers; crisp bacon on the side; u homemade muffins. Delicious!

We have stayed here twice while taking our child to and from Camp Woodward, which is just a few minutes' drive away on the same road. Both the public rooms and the suite we stayed in are lovely. The local scenery is beautiful. Breakfasts prepared by Jack, with several options available, are scrumptious. Definitely a much nicer place to stay than a chain hotel, and this is much closer to Woodward than any of them.

My son and I had the pleasure of staying at this historic house on June 22. We were welcomed like old friends and had a great time. Jack was a gracious host and made us a terrific breakfast before we headed back to Florida. My 9 year old son was enthralled with the house and informed me that he would gladly stay there for a couple of weeks!

If you have to be at Penn State or anywhere near State College, PA don't stay at a big hotel chain that's just a room, stay at The Aaronsburg Inn where Jack and Jane Van Heyst actually care about their guests and will make the Inn a destination in and of itself. The rooms are big, clean, and quiet. Jack is a master chef who will prepare a gourmet breakfast any way you like and adhere to any dietary restrictions you have. There is amazing fresh bread in the morning and yummy cookies at night. The inn is a warm and inviting place - you won't want to leave.

we booked 3 rooms here for the penn state graduation...we knew nothing about it but found it was one of few options left when we were looking - we had to book 2 nights but due to many conflicts, none of us could arrive until Sat. night - we we beyond thrilled with the place - its wonderful! friendly, clean, interesting...we regretted our limited time there. although we don't know anything about the area, we would go back if visiting penn state...it was an straight 40 minute drive from campus. owners are great.

I'm a little late posting these comments as my wife and I stayed at this inn in July 2011 but better late than not at all. We stayed at the Aaronsburg Inn in mid-July. We were attracted to the early 19th Century decor and the desire to stay somewhere away from the city and also wanted a location in central PA that gave us easy access to both State College and Lewisburg. Our room was modeled after one from the 19th century with replicated old time key locks on the door, period wall coverings and a canopy bed. The room had A/C which kept us cool even though we were on the second floor of an old home. The bathroom was immaculate with wonderful shower and toilet facilities. Environmentally oriented shampoo and soap supplies were provided. The main room downstairs had a very nice HD television that is meant to be shared by all guests. Internet service worked well. Again, period looking furniture with some modern conveniences thrown in appeared throughout. Each day you were offered either a continental breakfast or a sit down. My wife and I chose the sit down breakfast with 2 different choices being offered each day. Breakfast was absolutely one of the highlights of each day. I have traveled all over the States in the last 30 years and these were some of the best breakfasts we ever had. From excellant scotch prepared eggs to smoked salmon with poached eggs and tomato to a wonderful apple-maple french toast with homemade sausage, we didn't leave a crumb. The owner Jack knows his way around a kitchen. If your looking for a place to be home while you tour central Pa. then the Aaronsburg Inn is a wonderful choice. We will certainly visit there again.

My wife and I stayed here one weekend during football season. We did not go to the game but did watch it. It was a great place to just relax by the fire and watch. Breakfast was great each morning, they even made gluten/dairy free for my wife. The people were great, the room was great (new bathroom in our room), and the town was great. I would recommend the Inn to everyone and we will be staying again next year.

Super quiet and comfortable. We could have slept till noon if not for the delightful smells of breakfast wafting up to our room. Wish we had planned to stay longer. We'll be back.

Nice quiet town. Great atmosphere. Wonderful homemade bread and great breakfast. We will do it again.

I recently stayed at the Aaronsburg Inn over a Penn State football weekend. It was a wonderful stay, very relaxing. Breakfast was the best I've had for a while. As it was Homecoming weekend I was involved in various alumni events throughout the weekend but wished I could have spent more time at the Inn. I've stayed at the Aaronsburg before, plan to stay again and highly recommend it to any travelers to the Central PA area as a quiet and restful retreat with the absolutly best breakfast food you'll ever experience.

Great Hospitality, Clean rooms, Good Food, and a nice atmosphere.

This was my first time staying at a B&B. I'm pretty self-sufficient, so I was not sure if a B&B would be out of my comfort zone. I was pleasantly surprised that I not only felt comfortable at The Aaronsburg Inn, but it felt like home.

Jane and Jack are wonderful hosts and will go out of their way to insure that your stay is comfortable and enjoyable. The inn is lovely with well appointed rooms, ironed linens, and plush towels. Jack's breakfasts are gourmet and outstanding. An oasis in rural PA.

The owners treated like family, they welcomed us in like they had known us for years. The food was fantastic, the owner is quite the chef. The room was awesome and we slept very comfortably. We would definitely recommend the Aronsburg Inn to all our friends and family.

My wife and I had a truly enjoyable stay at the Inn. We were looking for a place to stay that was close to our destination and convenient to some sightseeing we wanted to take in.

Charming accommodations -- cozy and comfortable. Breakfast was an exquisite meal every morning with fresh-baked bread and uniquely tasting entrees. Innkeepers and staff take great pride in their Inn and will make your stay memorable.

I wanted to surprise my wife on her birthday so we stayed at the Arronsburg in after a Penn State football game. We both thoroughly enjoyed the stay. The entire stay was wonderful and we want to come back in the spring. Jack and Jane were the perfect hosts and spent time getting to know us.

A very warm and comfortable inn with extremely personable hosts.

Jack, the proprietor was extremely helpful and considerate. We stayed in room #7 which was very large, had air conditioning, a spacious sitting room and a nice bathroom and bed. The Inn has nice outdoor sitting areas too. Lone complaint would be a small TV but we didn't go there to watch TV, we spent our spare time eating at wonderful local cafe's and touring the beautiful countryside. Highly recommend it.

What a wonderful, historic building that has been renovated with style and respect to the historic ambience. The service is welcoming, efficient and the breakfast is delicious.

Innkeepers, Jack and Jane, are wonderful hosts and the inn is a beautiful place to stay in rural PA.

Very well kept and very cozy. The bed linens were so luxurious. The innkeepers were very personable and helpful in recommending local dining options. Great experience!

This B&B operated by Jack and Jane is super fantastic. The rooms were imaculate, food scrumptious and we felt like we were treated as a king and queen by the innkeeper. Jack was so helpful with things to do and were to eat in the area. You will no t be disappointed if you stay here. My wife and I stay at B&B's quite often and this B&B rates at the top of the list. We we will be back.

Before traveling to the area around State College PA, I looked at many different bed and breakfasts before choosing a place to stay. I always read reviews to help decide on a place to stay. The Aaronsburg Inn did not have any reviews written about it, but after looking at the web site, I saw that the new owners had only taken over within the past year. We decided to stay at the Aaronsburg Inn anyway without any reviews to guide us. We were not disappointed. Our room was immaculate with quality linens and bedding.The furniture was beautiful and the room and bathroom were nicely decorated. Breakfast was delicious. The innkeeper went out of his way to welcome us and to make our stay a pleasure. Give the Aaronsburg Inn a try and you be sure to enjoy your stay!
