Cute little house!
This worked well for our family of 6! We had enough space and kids enjoyed the games. I understand it was an old house but I was a little worried about all of the extension cords being a fire hazard. Owners communicated well! Easy to access different areas of the city. Kitchen was great!

Definitely was a little gem!
Just got back from a 2 days stay with a small group of girls. The house was great for a little shopping…close to peach street shopping..and some relaxing with good friends. The house was clean, so many extra blankets and pillows. There was also everything that you needed like spices, TP, garbage bags, kleenex…a lot of little things ..and a lovely bowl of snacks waiting for us upon arrival…nice touch!. Thank you for hosting us and we will def book again.

Wonderful stay
We truly enjoyed our holiday week at the house. The location is great, close to shops and activities. We found a new favorite game from their supplied games. The hosts are very responsive, we had one minor issue with a damaged pot and they had a new full set delivered samw day. We would definitely stay again!

Great house for my family to visit our Allegheny College student and see her soccer games. Great for access to several schools, amazing neighborhood restaurants and relaxation. Everything you need is there and the owners are easy to reach and deal with all your needs immediately.
