Great Getaway
The property was great. Perfect spot whether you were outside enjoying the outdoors or chilling and playing pool. Close to anything you might need during your stay from restaurants to grocery stores. Was a great time.

Nice comfortable place
The house and property are beautiful! The beds and furniture are comfortable. Furniture comfort could only be improved by adding a comfortable recliner.

Wintery ski getaway
Mike and Rebecca’s cabin was just as described in their listing. We had everything we needed at our fingertips, and really appreciated the attention to detail, especially the clearly labeled cabinets and drawers in the kitchen. The beds were comfortable and the fireplace was put to good use during a chilly weekend!

Spacious and Relaxing
We very much enjoyed our stay in this property. So much space to unwind and each person do their own thing at times, but very cozy and entertaining when we were all doing something together. The game room was a big plus, and we enjoyed it very much; although both the pool table and the darts need some updating. Cleanliness was acceptable, compared to other experiences, but not sufficient for a full 5 stars. Overall area was very nice and we enjoyed our drives to the Laurel Highlands in the snow (be sure to have an AWD in winter)

The home was super cozy and the amenities were great and appreciated. Although when we booked we thought we were more secluded in the woods, we did like that we were at the end of the lane tucked away some. The host responded quickly to questions and was so accommodating. Will definitely book again here for a future stay!

Wonderful Thanksgiving Family Get Together
Ideal place to celebrate the holidays with my family from back home in Johnstown. Spacious home with a great layout and yard. The downstairs game room was a really nice bonus. Very close to Sheetz (I miss Sheetz a lot!) and other stores and restaurants. I took my wife and kids to the Flight 93 National Memorial the day before Thanksgiving - what a beautiful tribute to the extrodaniary heros that where lost lost that day. The The Tower of Voices Memorial seemed to make the world stand still. It was an unusually quiet ride back to the rental home. The entire experience made all of us realize we have so much to be thankful for! God rest their souls and it is our hope their loved one's have been able to find peace.

Great cabin getaway
Close to the town of Somerset & not far from Donegal fun, this cabin was a perfect get away for our girls weekend. The kitchen was well stocked. The fire pit inside was great! The hosts were very responsive and accomodating.

Home away from home
The house is exactly as advertised. The owners clearly care their guests have what they need and made it easy to find. Had a blast with the kids with activities downstairs. Would recommend to others and worth going back.

Great location!
This is the perfect location if you like both the city and country. We ventured into downtown Pittsburgh two days of our stay, which is about an hour. The remainder of our week we visited State Parks, Flight 93 Memorial, Kentuck Knob and Fort Ligionier. The place was exceptionally clean and very comfortable. We appreciate that we could bring our dog and that the host had coffee, sugar, soaps and paper products for our use. We plan to return next year! Highly recommended!
