A cozy bed and breakfast getaway

Explore wine, cider, and craft beer trails

Happy Valley is home to several local wineries, breweries, and cideries, perfect for a romantic tour. Try Titan Hollow for craft ciders, or explore the Central PA Tasting Trail for an unforgettable date filled with tastings, scenic views, and new discoveries.

Indulge in a treat

Nothing says Valentine's Day like sweets for your sweet. Local bakeries and dessert shops across the region offer decadent treats perfect for sharing. Pick up a sweet treat from Dolce Vita Desserts and pair it with a glass of wine from University Wine Company.

Take a winter adventure

If you’re looking for something more active, take your Valentine to Tussey Mountain Ski & Recreation for skiing or snowboarding. A day on the slopes followed by hot cocoa at the lodge makes for a fun and cozy date night.

Explore Happy Valley's art and culture

For a creative date, visit the Palmer Museum of Art at Penn State or take a historic walking tour of downtown Bellefonte. Art galleries and cultural landmarks provide great opportunities to connect and spark conversation with your partner.

Plan a scenic picnic (indoors or outdoors)

If you prefer something more low-key, create your own Valentine's Day picnic using locally sourced goods from Happy Valley farmers markets or specialty shops. Enjoy it at a nearby park or indoors by a fireplace for an intimate experience.

Valentine’s Day is the perfect excuse to slow down and appreciate the beauty around you. Whether you're inspired by the stories of local couples like the Coopeys and Schusters or you're crafting your own Happy Valley love story, there’s no shortage of ways to make the holiday memorable.
