A lovely stay at Paddlers Lane Retreat. Room was cozy and had everything I needed. Close enough to food options but off the path so it was very quiet and serene. Dan was a pleasure to chat with and very helpful with recommendations. If I pass through again, I'll definitely stay here.

What a lovely B&B! Unfortunately we were unable to enjoy the surrounding on the river because we arrived in the evening and had to leave first thing in the morning. Definitely a place we would like to visit again, this time for longer.

Beautiful Place

Paddler’s Lane was the nicest place we stayed on our Laurel Highlands trip. Clean, great service from owners, beautiful grounds by the river and beautifully decorated inside. Unfortunately,we were only there for one night, but we plan to stay three nights next time. We’d like to see this place in all seasons.

It was a beautiful location but somewhat isolated and we lost internet and had trouble finding paddler’s creek. There was a train track next to the property that passed all night and woke us several times. It was more of an adventure than a vacation.we did go to Falling Water which was amazing but it was a lot further from Confluence than we realized.

Dan and Robin are very thoughtful and caring hosts. The location was very close to falling waters. The place was extremely clean and we were allowed to cook in the kitchen. The nearby town restaurants close early and you may want to take your own food for dinner. Breakfast is provided by the hosts. Only negative is the sound of trains nearby.

It is well-run by friendly and accessible hosts, ready to see to your every need. It is set in a relaxing, natural location with a small river running by (and an occasional train). It is very close to Fallingwater and Kentuck Knob (Frank Lloyd Wright designed homes) as well as cycling and kayaking options. You should choose Paddler's Retreat for these reasons. Dining and shopping options are very limited.

We had such a wonderful stay at Dan and Robin's. The property is close to a beautiful river and in a beautiful setting. The bedroom is cozy and comfortable with more than enough space a bathroom attached. The living area can easily handle a large crowd and has all the comforts of home. Dan and Robin even had a Christmas tree set up in the living with lights and all! The hearth is wonderful, and Dan had the fireplace all set up with kindling, paper and wood. Just had to light it! Perfect for a romantic evening with my wife. Breakfast was delicious and there was plenty of food for us. We highly recommend this property and plan to visit again. Soon, hopefully.

Nice overnight stay

A last m minute booking on a drive thru in Confluence PA yielded a wonderful overnight stay. Our original booking of a room in the lodge became unavailable due to a plumbing issue. We were upgraded to the chalet which gave us more than enough room. This stay may produce a summer visit with more family members. The hosts really care about the property

Very friendly bed & breakfast vibe in a lovely setting. Our queen-bedded room was small, but nicely arranged. The trains that go by are loud and more than a couple pass at night. Ear plugs are thoughtfully provided. The first night we had our windows open as the room was a bit warm. If you are sensitive to noise, it may be a struggle.

Perfect place in between Falling Water and Kentuck Knob. We only stayed one night but it would be great for a weekend or week stay. The carpet on the walls were great for sound proofing as we never heard the train from inside the house even though the tracks are across the road.
