Reimagined 1915 Heritage House
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, 5 reviews
"I rented this house with my husband, his sister, and her husband, to attend a special family event. This house was in a perfect location for us, and had plenty of room for both couples. It's beautiful finished and furnished, with an incredibly well-equipped kitchen. And we loved that it was supplied with local soap and lotion, a bottle of wine, Easter flowers, and everything we needed for breakfast: bread, egg, bacon, coffee, and cream! Thank you, we look forward to staying with you again!"

LILY PAD: Cozy Cabin with Unique Charm overlooking small pond on our property.
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, 13 reviews
"We could not be more pleased with the Lilly Pad. The quality and peacefulness of the cabin exceeded our expectations, even after reading the many great reviews. The country location provides the rare blend of being away from the city but still having easy access to downtown Pittsburgh. We averaged 30 minutes from the cabin to PNC Park for Pirates games - a very easy drive -- and could have opted for the trolley just a few minutes away. The proximity of restaurants and shopping is amazing as...

Time to enjoy the mountains and fall foliage colors! Hopwood cottage awaits!
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, 19 reviews
"Cozy and comfortable except for very strong sulfur taste/smell in water (including shower). (We wound up buying drinking water to brush teeth and make coffee.) Lovely setting but a bit hard to find and it would be very hard in the dark and we really had to manuever the car to pull in and to be able to turn around to be ready to leave."

Quiet Space with Spacious Yard for Parking in Nice Community
9.0 out of 10, Wonderful, 4 reviews
"We enjoyed a quiet weekend stay. The house has many charming qualities and at the foot of the road is a deli/bakery with delicious offerings. Make sure to plug the address in your GPS. I just clicked on the "how to get there" directions and it took me 15 minutes past the house. There were some cleaning issues that the owner was truly surprised to hear about so I expect that is not a common experience for guests. All in all it was a pleasant weekend in the rolling hills of southwest Pennsylvania."

Creekside Haven at the Farm

"The host had the yert cozy warm when we arrived during an unexpected bout of cold. It was close to Morgantown, less than 15 min from our kid's apartment, 30 min to the Collesium. Farm fresh meat and eggs can be ordered ahead of time and will be in the fridge when you arrive. My 6 year old loved the playground. Lots of clever farm ingenuity throughout. The perfect place to get away for some peace. The creek water is just steps out side the yert and an awesome natural sound machine to help you get...

8.2 out of 10, Very good, 670 reviews
"The property itself is decent, the parking lot could use some work, maybe making some flat space or dips in the sidewalk between the lot and entrance to make it easier to load luggage on the dolly could be a step in the right direction. Smells in the hallway were pretty typical, smells like weed, but the inside of the rooms are not affected in the slightest, room was clean top to bottom. And I was very impressed by the pool, clean, no overpowering chlorine smell, and very good temperature. Only...
