Cabane pittoresque dans les montagnes Allegheny

Quiet setting, deer in the back yard. Owner easy to communicate with.

This cabin is really tough to rate. Dorothy's communication was great prior to and on our arrival day, and I really appreciated that. The cabin is in a great location, convenient to exploring the Alleghenies and a quick jaunt to Jamestown. The area around the cabin is serene - farms, woods, and dark star-filled skies (in fact the Martz-Kohl observatory a mile down the road was a wonderful surprise -- highly recommend it). In contrast, the cabin property itself is not so great. The grounds are literally a dump. I don't know how else to say it . Just behind the building and also behind the shrubs that are in the photos on the listing are numerous piles of old junk strewn about and also going into the woods behind the house. The swing and other outdoor furniture around the fire pit have broken slats and feel like they could collapse at the slightest touch. The comfy-looking outdoor furniture shown in the listing photos on the porch was nowhere to be seen, instead there was a cheap white plastic table and chairs. What to say about the cabin itself? At first everything seemed fine, but after one night there we realized that there are a lot of things that need attention and detracted from any enjoyment of staying there. Food left in the fridge and freezer (we're talking fully stocked) and no notes about whose they are, what to do with them or how long they'd been in there. At least half of the light bulbs in the various fixtures did not work so the place is constantly in shadow. Cigarette butts were left in the ashtray in the enclosed porch near the front door, and there is a faint smell of smoke and dust in the main cabin itself which we tried to get rid of by opening the windows. Drawers in the kitchen that are either completely empty or full of miscellaneous items (rubber bands, etc.) -- but no sign of the eating utensils until you hunt around for 15 minutes and find them in a room off the kitchen in a place that is not obvious at all . The bathroom shower is really old, somewhat rusty, and does not inspire a feeling of cleanliness. My wife and I fell in love with the area and plan to come back, but this cabin needs some attention and cleaning before we would ever consider it again.

My fiancé, my dog and I all love this property. This is our second time visiting, and we just can’t wait to come back again. Dorothy is great, and you can’t beat the sunsets from the bench in the back yard. We tell everyone about this place! Thanks so much, Dorothy!

We adopted 2 senior golden retrievers, that had spent a lot of time inside. Even though they get out at our house it still isn't like having room to run. We hope to make another trip.

The property was great for a relaxing get away with my kids. Everything you need to cook is there for you. We had fun making s'mores and waking up to deer just outside the rear windows.
