Private, Cozy Couple's Cottage in Somerset

Escape to your own private retreat in the heart of Somerset, PA. Tucked away from the road and surrounded by nature, this cozy 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom cottage is the perfect getaway for couples looking to slow down, reconnect, and enjoy some peace and quiet. With the ultimate privacy and seclusion, you won’t spend your stay watching cars pass by or looking at neighboring houses. When the leaves are full, the cottage is beautifully secluded from the road, creating the feeling that you’ve truly gotten away from it all. Inside, curl up with a good book beside the fireplace, enjoy a quiet morning with your coffee, or stream your favorite shows with reliable WiFi when you want to stay connected. The cottage can comfortably accommodate up to six guests, with a pull-out sofa available in the living room; linens for the sofa bed are available upon request.

Spend your days relaxing on the deck, soaking in the hot tub, gathering around the firepit, or enjoying a meal at the picnic table while taking in the surrounding woods. Fall is especially beautiful here, with gorgeous foliage creating a colorful backdrop for your getaway. Shaffer Run flows from the spring-fed headwaters created by the two streams running through Holtheim, making this an ideal spot for those who love to explore and enjoy the outdoors. You’ll feel wonderfully removed from everything while still being close enough to enjoy the area’s attractions, including Hidden Valley, Seven Springs, Forbes State Forest, Kooser State Park, and Laurel Hill State Park.

Whether you’re looking for a romantic weekend away, a quiet place to recharge, or simply a chance to trade traffic and neighbors for trees and fresh air, this cottage is for you. Come unplug, unwind, and enjoy your own little corner of the Laurel Highlands!
