Excellent Family Holiday
Spending the holidays away from home can be hard but not at the Yinzers Getaway. The house was beautifully decorated, very clean, nice kitchen, and beautiful dining room for Christmas dinner. Perfect for families. Scott was a wonderful host, very responsive and full of useful information. Highly recommended

Girlfriend get together
The three-story house was very cozy and clean. The kitchen was well equipped, the living room was comfortable for us to sit around and talk, and the beds were very comfortable. We did not have any pets so we could not take advantage of the pet facilities in the basement. But for anyone with a cat, it would be ideal down there.
