Relaxed, Fun Vibe, Clean, Great tech
We were in town for a wedding. Had some down time and enjoyed being the space when we did not have wedding activities. I would stay again if I was in town and I would suggest others consider. Ryan was very nice.

Guess who’s back, back again
Returned for a second stay and brought BIL & SIL. House was super-clean and had everything we needed (loved the extra fluffy towels). Ryan was very helpful and responsive to our communication. We enjoyed a beautiful day floating down the river and a nice evening in Franklin. Plan to return!

Cozy Home
We were looking for a house that was close to family in Oil City, PA. Ryan met us in front of the house and gave us a tour of the house. Friendly and professional. The house was extremely clean, comfortable and cozy. We used the entire house including the washer & dryer. We would definitely go back, hopefully next summer.

Paradise
This property was absolutely amazing and we loved everything about it including Ryan, the host. We were made to feel welcome immediately upon arrival. The house was everything and more that was advertised. Ryan was extremely accommodating prior to, during and even following our stay. We did not want to leave and hope that we are able to return at some point to further enjoy this paradise!!!!

Lynette and the other ladies were an absolutely charm. Everyone was so easy to chat with and they all seemed to be having a good time through the course of the weekend wedding festivities. They treated the house with the utmost respect and made it easy for me to clean and sanitize. Lynette and the crew are welcome to visit anytime and I hope they do again!

Perfect for paddlers and peddlers
This property met all of our needs and then some. Perfect location, close to town and the Allegheny River is right out your front door. Ryan is a great host. He is very responsive and keeps an extremely clean home. We enjoyed the bikes and the kayaks. We highly recommend this property to anyone that is visiting Franklin, PA.

Beautiful and clean property
We have stayed in many VRBOs and vacation rental properties and this property was, by far, the best! Extremely clean, updated, stylish and comfortable home. The pictures don't do this place justice. We would definitely return and recommend this property to others.

They are the best, a fantastic couple that are the quintessential guests. Carissa and crew were so easy to host. They left the house in beautiful condition and made my world so much easier for clean up. I hope that all my guests could be so amazing!

Lovely people with a wanderlust for adventure and the finer things in life. Barb and company left the house in great condition and were a blessing to converse with throughout their stay. I highly recommend them for any further visits. I think they had fun and enjoyed themselves to the fullest at our property.
