We loved this property. Great location with the lake within walking distance. Very clean and cute inside. Loved the reading nook with the lights, the fire area outside, and the hot tub! (Really, we loved everything). Kids enjoyed the game room. Easy communication with the property manager. We'd love to stay here again!!
TL;DR everything was great and we plan to come back
We stayed for two nights to celebrate my daughter's eighth birthday and knew weather would be cold and rainy, so we were not sure how it would go -- but everything was perfect. The host was super responsive and suggested lots of kid-friendly activities.
Between the game room, local hikes, the hot tub, and the fire pit, we had plenty to do. Plus it generally felt cozy and warm. I don't think the listing highlights the little reading nook around but that was a really nice part of our stay, too.
We enjoyed the fall stay and hope to come back in the summer to enjoy swimming in the lake.
I had given a brief summary of why I was booking the cabin. As I walked in I saw the most thoughtful card and beautiful flowers. That was the start to the weekend my heart and mind needed. Rachel is so caring. The cabin is beyond perfect. I didnât leave once the whole weekend. I found my peace, my calm, my serenity. I came with second guesses, scared about my future, anxiety. I left with answers, a clear head, and a new love and respect for myself. I canât wait to come back again. This isnât just a rental. Itâs now a staple in my healing journey and my story. I canât wait to make more memories here. Thank you Rachel. Thank you for being you.
The access road is rough and scary the first time you come in, and the driveway is short and tricky at first sight, but once you get used to taking your time and navigating both with the right amount of care, you're fine. The cabin is beautiful and comfortable with everything we needed available. We were grateful to be able to take advantage of the hot tub every evening when we returned from hiking nearby trails. We couldn't have had a more pleasant stay and will gladly return if we're in the area again. Thanks!
It was bigger than many cabins I stayed in, really clean, beds were very comfortable. Host was very sweet and made it easy to check in and out. Beautiful views, and very close to Ohiopyle and Confluence for activities. Hot tub quite lovely, and beautiful views. The last part of the drive in is very hilly and gravelly, so we had to be careful there. Would book again!
Very nice cabin. The gameroom was closed for renovations but everything else was great!! It was perfect for our visit. Hot tub and fire ring completed each evening
We loved this property! Rachel was very accommodating allowing us to check in early, and everything was as advertised. The road to and from the home is ROUGH, so definitely recommend having a larger vehicle. I do with there were a few items like tin foil, zip locks, etc in the home, but it in no way affected our overall comfort in the house. Highly recommend this property!
This cabin was amazing. Sparkling clean and a great location. Communication with the property owner was extremely helpful. She was obviously happy to help and knows the area very well! Access to the cabin was a little rough as far as the condition of the roadway, but it was tolerable for such a nice little place to stay!
The cabin was exceptionally clean. Very cozy and great amenities. Comfy beds. Close to the lake. We enjoyed the hot tub and the fire pit. Rachel is very accommodating and great communication. Highly recommend.
This property was the perfect place to relax and reset; tucked away with a beautiful view of the lake. It was well maintained and the owner was extremely communicative and helpful. The hot tub was the perfect ending to the days spent exploring the beautiful PA landscape.
We had a wonderful weekend at this cozy cabin! The house is just a short walk to the lake, which was perfect for fishing, swimming, and relaxing. We brought our own fishing rods and bait, and were glad we didâitâs a great spot for it. The lake has a rocky bottom, so water shoes came in handy for swimming!The cabin feels cozy and gives everyone space to unwind. There was even a sweet little reading nook for quiet moments. We brought an air mattress and had plenty of room for it. The kitchen had all the tools and essentials we needed for cooking, and we brought our own groceries.We took a day trip to Ohiopyle and visited Cucumber Falls, which the kids lovedâit felt like a mini adventure climbing around the rocks and fallen trees. The gem mining was more fun than expected, and the ice cream afterward was a hit.Back at the cabin, we loved the hot tub, making sâmores by the fire pit, and watching movies from the great DVD selection. The kids had a blast in the game room. Rachel was a thoughtful, responsive host and had everything set up so nicely, including coffee and basic supplies.One note: the road leading to the cabin is very rocky, so we recommend bringing everything youâll need for your stayâyou wonât want to make too many trips once youâre settled in. That said, itâs all part of the adventure, and we truly loved our stay. Weâd absolutely return!
The cabin was beautiful with beautiful views! My friends and I had a short little cabin trip and enjoyed our stay at this property. The hot tub was relaxing and had great scenery of the trees and lake. Would definitely recommend this place!
The property is very nice and clean! The bed was very comfortable and the living area is a great size if you are having a larger group over. There was a bad storm during our stay and we lost power but that didn't stop us from having a great time! Being close to Nemacolin and Ohiopyle gave us plenty to do and plenty of places to eat. Only wish we could've used the hot tub but maybe next time! We'll definitely be staying again!
This property was beautiful and well kept, the communication with the property owner was very consistent and helpful. I would definitely stay here again.
Stayed here for a girls weekend, such a charming place. We used the hot tub and fire pit every night. This place has a wonderful view of the lake and is about 15 minutes away from all of the hiking trails. We plan on staying here again.
I personally love spending time at our cabin. It has amazing lighting and views and is very open and airy. The street our cabin is situated on is private and rarely traveled. It's quiet and a great place to decompress and reconnect with nature.
