Gorgeous, Private Home on the Yough River with Hot Tub
Yough Treehouse is located in the town of Confluence nestled in the Laurel Highlands Mountains. Our private home sits on 2 acres of land along the Youghiogheny River at the tailwaters of the dam. Surrounded by protected woods (recently purchased by Western PA Conservancy and trails are in the works), at the end of a one lane road but within walking distance to town. We are 400 yds to the Great Allegheny Passage bike trail.
Our secluded, custom build home is well equipped and clean. The open floor plan in the kitchen/living area and large deck with grill make for ideal socializing. The house has lots of windows and is bright and cheery.
Yough Treehouse can accommodate up to 6 people. We have 2 bedrooms and an open loft for sleeping and 2 full baths. The master bedroom has a king sized bed and full bath including a claw foot tub. The second bedroom has 2 twins. And the loft has a queen sized bed.
The kitchen is well equipped with everything you'll need. There is a gas grill on the deck. All linens and towels are provided. There is a TV/DVD, highspeed, wireless internet and free local calls. Verizon/Sprint/AT&T cell phones work well from the house. The house has central A/C. Our home is kid friendly and there is a highchair and portacrib. With 4 distinct seasons, the house is available year round.
Without leaving our property you can enjoy the natural beauty of the area while relaxing on our spacious deck over looking the river. Or listen for geese, ducks and other birds on the flagstone patio with built in fire ring or while soaking the hot tub. Fly fish for trout in the well stocked tailwaters of the dam in our back yard. Watch for great blue heron, osprey or if you are lucky the bald eagles that fish here as well.
Make a day swimming and boating at the Yough Lake just around the corner. Take a break from your ride through from DC to Pittsburgh on the bike trail or spend the day biking shorter routes in either direction. Kayak or pick up a raft trip in nearby Ohiopyle. Make this the perfect retreat for trips to the 2 Frank Lloyd Wright homes Fallingwater and Kentuck Knob. We are centrally located to the ski resorts (Wisp, Seven Springs & Hidden Valley).
Whether you are looking for a romantic getaway, a family planning the ultimate recreational vacation or old friends looking for a quiet retreat our home is the perfect setting. For larger groups please consider the http://www.youghriverhouse.com/ Riverhouse just down the road (sleeps 12). Or consider renting both the Riverhouse and Treehouse. The houses are walking distance apart. Come back year after year and explore the wonders of the Laurel Highlands.
Please note that there is a security camera/motion detection light- facing the driveway, that we use to monitor when the space is vacant.

A Beautiful Weekend
We had a lovely weekend get away. Kara even left out special toys and towels for our 2 pug puppies.
Everything was perfect, and we enjoyed every second. We can't wait to book again!
This home is so beautiful and it has to be the cleanest I ever stayed at. Sitting on the deck and hearing the river flow by was so relaxing. Definitely be back next year for a week. Thanks Kara for everything!
Place was great. Owners should look at screen door to patio as the rollers need adjustment. Would definitely stay again! In our top five of VRBO’s we have utilized!!
The house was immaculately clean!
We loved the house and the owner was fantastic giving us great restaurant recommendations!

Relaxing fishing and eating vacation
Great location. Perfect layout with nice bedrooms and eating area. Loved the fire pit and hot tub. Coffee beans and a grinder were the perfect touch for breakfast.
This property was perfect for our little surprise getaway
We loved everything about it. The inside was clean, the outside venue was perfect with the hot tub and the fire pit.
We will surely return to this beautiful property along the river wall
Thank you
Perfect place for a weekend get away in the mountains!
It was a girlfriend’s weekend and we realized we stayed in this house back in 2012 for a bachelorette weekend!
We will be back!

Dream House on the Yough
If you’re looking for the perfect place to get away from all the noise , ride your bike to Ohiopyle, raft or canoe in the amazing water right out your back door . This is your house ! Build a , relax in the hot tub or just watch the wildlife / birds do day to day. This house is very clean and detailed for family and friends to enjoy the mountains in the most perfect setting.Book / and ENJOY !
Very quiet, relaxing, and convenient to Falling Water and Kenuck Knob. House is really clean and the grounds are lovely. The hot tub and fire pit are a huge plus! And the view is priceless! Thank you for a lovely stay!
Three is us friends rented your house for the weekend, but complications at home resulted in only me being able to come. I thoroughly enjoyed the house and was very comfortable. I felt safe walking around the area, and it was quiet in the evening and overnight. We all may come for another visit.
Wonderful property! The house was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. Kara was quick to respond to any questions we had, before and during our stay. We had a great time exploring Confluence, walking the trails, dinner at the Lucky Dog Cafe and ice cream at the Outflow. We loved the falls at Ohiopyle and the laurel caverns. A lovely home, inside and out (even better than the pictures.) would love to see it in the fall!

Long weekend at the Yough Treehouse.
We had a wonderful five star experience at the Treehouse from beginning to end. Kara was super helpful and quick to respond with everything. The Treehouse is exactly as described and better and we had everything we needed to enjoy the weekend. The Treehouse location is perfect. We enjoyed easy bike trail and river access. We would 100% recommend the Treehouse and definitely stay there again.
The Treehouse was an amazing place, right by the river, with an amazing view. It is relatively close to everything you would want to see/do, and it has the added benefit of being in a very quiet location. Truly an escape. The place has virtually everything you could need for a getaway.
Tthis was the perfect place to unwind next to the river. Our little group would love to come back!
This was the perfect place to unwind next to the river. We enjoyed enjoyed everything from the firepit to games inside on a rainy day. We would love to come back in the summertime.
Perfect size and location. Not to far away from everything but just hidden enough to feel alone. The house and property was beautiful. Couldn’t be more happy with our stay.
