Quick flip that is only nice becuase it is new and on the wayer
I planned for solitude. I checked ahead of time that there were no cameras on the property as I am recently widowed mom of 3 young kids and was hoping to process my grief without an audience for once. The property boasted quiet. When I arrived, I missed the driveway. They dont warn you that it is a sharp drop to the property and a scary pull out into on comming traffic. The place is clean and new, but if you know anything of construction even in passing, you will be constantly annoyed with the shortcuts they so clearly took. Nothing dangerous just unfinished shotty work with almost no caulk anywhere and black grout in the shower so that you are not sure if it is grout or mildew. Smells like mildew. When I woke up the next morning I noticed 4 undisclosed cameras and a construction crew using the power outlet on the front porch. The host wished me happy naps and reading and there was hammering and power tools being used on their adjacent property that again was less than an extention cord away fron the front door I was renting! They were also blocking the driveway. So I planned on being a crying ugly troll all week and instead, i felt i had to be presentable for the multiple stangers that could easily watch me from the deck as well as the cameras that felt most intrusive when I was crying the hardest. No reading, naps or yoga were had. On check out day the hosts stared at me from the other property as i soaked up the sun until my departure time. Yes

short getaway
House was as described. well stocked and had everything we needed. Beautiful deck overlooking the river. Even though we had a lot of rain the view was great! Close to the bike trails. Dinner at the Allegheny Grill was delicious. I would not hesitate to suggest this home for your next stay in that area.

Father's Day Overnight Ride
My son and i were looking for a midpoint in a curvy Pensylvania route. Parker,PA was interesting. Its a little paddle stop on the Allegheny River. The little house is just sown river of town. Maker sure to ask about kayaks and bikes ahead of time, or bring your own i guess. Sweet little cottage. Private enough for good conversation.

Right in the middle of nowhere but at the center of it all
We had a great 1 night stay here that we picked for its central location midway to the Grove City Premier Outlets and the UPMC Northwest hospital. Newly created turnaround at the end of the driveway eliminates backing down the old driveway. No sulpher smell in the water. Easy access to the river for swimming. Bring an innertube or inflatable raft. Water was warm for June. Had a bald eagle fly in and perch on a tree branch just 20 feet from our deck. Meghan granted us an early arrival, and then helped us retreive a makeup case that was left behind after we checked out. Highly recommend this property and it is one of the rare one night minimum rentals available.

This a wonderful little cottage. We really enjoyed the deck and the fire pit. With being so close to the river, the big windows were definitely a plus for us.

Wish we had booked a longer stay.
We were very pleased with our one night stay, and wish we had been able to stay longer. Meghan promptly responded to each of our emails, which we appreciated. The property and amenities are accurately described. Extra bonus points for finding a John Prine LP on the record player -- great taste! We are birders, and were very pleased to hear and see the number and variety of birds in and around the property. Two things I would emphasize for future guests. Our GPS insisted on taking us to a turn off about a hundred yards from the true turn off to the driveway, so be wary of what your GPS tells you. Second, pay close attention to what the hosts have to say about the driveway itself, and contact them with any questions. Thanks again, Meghan, we will definitely be in touch next time we are in the area.

Great weekend spot
My boyfriend and I stayed at this house for the weekend and it was a great get-away spot! The house was newly updated and clean, and had everything we needed. The fire pit and the deck overlooking the river were amazing and a great place to have coffee in the morning. Very private but close to amenities around the area. The host was very responsive and quick to answer any questions. Easy to check in and out too. We loved it and are planning to go back already!

A lovely spot on the beautful Allegheny River!
This well kept property sits on the beautiful Allegheny River. The cottage was clean and updated. The host demonstrated kindness and flexibility in meeting our needs. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and even the smallmouth bass cooperated nicely! The float trips on the Allegheny from Kennerdale to Parker were fantastic--as was the hiking in the nearby Clear Creek State Forest! A wonderful week in a beautiful setting!

Great riverside getaway
Loved our weekend escape by the Allegheny River run this perfectly styled cabin! My favorite thing was waking up in the morning and looking out the window at our first snowfall of the season and the rushing river. While there is not a full kitchen, it has plenty of tools and appliances to be able to cook simple meals and then settle in for a movie night on the projector. Minutes from the Allegheny River trail where we went to ride bikes with our kids and Freedom Falls for a short hike by the waterfall, this spot is a gem. Would love to come back on a warmer weekend and take advantage of water activities.

Great place to stay with the perfect accommodations for the two of us. A bit tricky getting into and out of the property, especially after dark, but it was part of the privacy and solitude of the stay.

The owners have done an amazing job updating this little property. It has everything you need for a perfect stay. Easier to find during the day as our gps (Google Maps) unfortunately took us to a nearby street and very difficult to turn around in driveway but other than that, we enjoyed our stay and the cottage.

Great place! A “must go”
The little cabin is so well set up. The owners have thought of so many little things. The deck, the fire pit, the view all great. Quick drive to couple of restaurants and small grocery store. Just can’t say enough. We have stayed at many VRBO’s this is one of our favorite.
