About this property

Welcome to Toftrees Golf Resort

Toftrees Golf Resort is a serene retreat located in State College, Pennsylvania, set amidst pine trees just under a mile from Interstate 99. Its quiet setting provides easy access to local attractions such as The Arboretum at Penn State and the hiking trails on Mount Nittany. The resort caters primarily to golf enthusiasts, featuring a well-maintained golf course, driving range, and golf instruction, making it a notable destination for those looking to enjoy the sport in a tranquil environment.

The accommodations consist of unfussy rooms and suites that guests describe as clean and comfortable, though somewhat dated. While air conditioning and free Wi-Fi are standard, some visitors have noted that rooms could benefit from updates and modern conveniences like microwaves or additional charging ports. The resort offers amenities including a heated outdoor pool, a fitness center, free parking, and a business center. It is family-friendly but not pet-friendly, maintaining a smoke-free environment throughout the property.

Dining options on-site focus mainly on The Field Burger & Tap, a casual American restaurant praised for its good-quality burgers and reasonable prices.

The resort also serves as a venue for events such as weddings and conferences, supported by attentive staff and a scenic outdoor setting overlooking the golf course and surrounding nature.

While reviews highlight excellent golf conditions and a peaceful location, some guests mention that the rooms and parts of the hotel are in need of refurbishment. Nonetheless, the resort appears well-suited for visitors focused on golf, outdoor activities, or attending events in the area. Proximity to State College Regional Airport and other local points of interest adds to its practical appeal for travelers.

So the facility is not brand new and the rooms may be a bit dated but they are comfortable and clean. The food in the The Field restaurant is pretty limited to mostly burgers and fries, but they are good and fairly priced. There are lots of other dining options nearby. But the main reason to come to Toftrees: the golf course here is a solid 10, one of the nicest I've played anywhere. The conditions were exceptional, the greens fast, tricky, and true, the bunkers are well maintained with beautiful sugar sand, and the track is tough but fair with reasonable landing areas and beautiful rolling views. If you love golf, this is one you don't want to miss.

Played only 9 holes of the golf course due to weather but very well maintained, excellent views and very pleasant staff. If you are in the area you need to play it.

Yes, the rooms and bathrooms are "out-dated", but it's not like 70's or 80's out-dated, more like 90s, early 2000. The side that has the restaurant is much more modern. The location is very peaceful and it's about 7-15 mins away from shops and restaurants. The food at the restaurant was very good as far as lunch and dinner, breakfast was buffet style and the warm foods were not great. Staff was also friendly. The pool is very nice and is cared for. We would definitely stay again. And would recommend my friends and family to stay also.

The room was clean, quiet and adequate for any travelers who would use it for sleep and showers. A microwave and some USB ports would make the room more convenient. The TV in our room was 32”. Room cleaning service is upon request. There is ample parking very close to the rooms. The one (and only) restaurant in the premises makes excellent burgers. It was very busy, and appeared to be popular with both locals and visitors. Possibly for golfers, this hotel may offer a lot more than it did for us, we mostly stayed because of the proximity to the university campus -and we would stay again in the future.

Stayed there for conference rooms are ok. They were a little dated, but that was also during the winter. The field restaurant was delicious. Just played the golf course last week. Very nice course. Greens are fast, and the fairways are nice. Very challenging course. It can get busy, and the pace is good. The renovation of the course is awesome. The main hotel is also scheduled for a renovation as well.

Just finished our daughter’s wedding at Toftrees. The hotel is a bit dated for sure but the nature that surrounds it is outstanding. For a wedding destination this place is ! The outdoor ceremony location overlooks the golf course, pond and mountains - so beautiful. The wedding planner, Katie, is simply awesome at her job. She is completely devoted to ensure that your event is flawless and she delivered! She deserves a raise no matter what she is making. If you are looking to get married in the State College area, do yourself a favor and meet with Katie. Almost forgot to mention…The Fields restaurant on-site is a huge value! The food is outstanding the the prices are unbelievably low.
