Very nice place to stay even on a rainy weekend since the hot tub griill and firepit are under a shelter. Only complaint we had was the propane bottle for the grill was empty and there wasnt any propane for the firepit on the porch

Great getaway!
The property was nice, clean and secluded, even with two other cottages on the property. The night sky was amazing at the back of the property, wished we would've brought a telescope. There are alot of state parks in the area for walking and hiking and Ohiopyle is close for rafting or kyaking, we were even able to take a quick trip to the Pittsburgh Zoo amd Aqaurium which was only about an hour and half away. Would book again.

Long weekend away
The locations was absolutely beautiful, very out of the way! My kids thought it was to far away from civilization lol. The home was cozy even though the AC was not working the window units worked a little fan we purchased also worked great. We toured the Falling Waters, ohiopyle state park and some hiking. I highly recommend for a little getaway for a couple/family or alone

Disappointed and wouldn’t recommended to anyone
Just before my arrival I received a message from the property management company stating that the drain in one of the bath tubs was broken and it could not be stepped on because it would break the temporary fix that was in place. At first I thought that the property was clean when I walked in because it smelled clean. After living there for a couple nights I really started seeing how unclean the place really was, which is really gross. Not to mention the other issues during our stay. I understand that we’re located in the middle of nowhere where wildlife is abundant. However, the “skirting” around the bottom of the house was not secure and some type of rodent got underneath and was rattling the walls of the house. From the inside it sounded like a bear but after investigation we figured it must have been a ground hog or something. The cabinets and drawers in the kitchens had mouse poop in them and I saw a mouse run across the floor and run behind the dishwasher! I contacted the number that was given if there were any issues. Travis was very nice and did come out the next day to set a live trap for the animal under the house and put some mouse traps under the kitchen sink. It wasn’t until later that evening that we discovered that the dishwasher was not functional-after we had already loaded it. The property management company didn’t seem very concerned with my displeasure either. Overall, for the price I paid for a 2 night stay I expected much better of an experience.

Close to GAP, needs some TLC
Overall the cottage okay and location is very nice but the cottage needs some TLC. Had come to the Confluence area to ride the Great Allegheny Passage (GAP) trail. For my rental of 13 nights, per night price was very reasonable. First the good The location is approximately 2 miles from a GAP trailhead on a lightly travelled road. Even with two other cottages sharing the driveway, hot tub and grill never heard the other renters the few nights that there were other renters. Got to see several rabbits, robins, bluejays,a groundhog and a hummingbird. Good kitchen. Used the grill twice. Too hot for hot tub. some slight differences between listing/pictures and reality Now has two window AC units. Central air still runs but doesn't seem to cool very well, is noisy. Hughes satellite internet. Speed was slow compared to at home but not sure if that is normal for Hughes. Also on a limited data plan which you only learn about days before your stay. Now the not so good Dishwasher wasn't working. Would beep, lights come on every 25-30 minutes but never worked. Bathub in bathroom by smaller bedrooms had stopper/drain hole broken off from the rest of the tub. Many dead bugs in the exhaust fan globe in master bathroom. Could see the bugs through the globe with light off. Dishes put away that weren't clean. Did notify management about these issues except for central air. Told them they could wait to fix them until after I left. More to review but limited by VRBO.

A wonderful place to stay
We booked this place on one day's notice so I can overlook some usual amenities not being there such as soap, shampoo/conditioner, matches and other similar things that hosts usually supply. That being said, it was a wonderful place to stay. Very cozy, doggo friendly and beautiful place to spend time with easy access to Ohiopyle. We absolutely recommend staying there
