Country Cottage

Welcome to our family cottage. We love this quiet house with the wide views out the windows. The front of the house faces south and receives ample sunshine. The back door opens onto a deck where we like to drink our morning coffee and watch for deer, turkey, and the occasional fox. On clear nights, the back deck turns into stargazing central.

There are two queen beds, one in each bedroom. Two single hideaway beds are tucked into the storage space, and a pack-n-play.

Great spot for a peaceful getaway
My husband, uncle and I stayed the weekend while visiting the area. Very quiet and peaceful place! Communication with Marion was great regarding a small issue we encountered and the situation was remedied very quickly. Place was clean, well-stocked, and just as advertised. Would definitely stay again!

Dave's deer hunting trip
The cottage served my needs at a great value. One remark I would say is that the guestbook did not have any listing & directions to local services like laundry, groceries, church, restaurants etc. Two safety concerns I wish to mention. 1) The blind left turn out of Lauffer onto Stitts was very uncomfortable for me. Perhaps a mirror could be installed. 2) The landing area at the top of the stairs felt like a real fall hazard down the stairs. I realize that given the construction there may be very little to do about it but I was alert to it every moment I walked through there. The night light in the bathroom didn't really illuminate the area so I kept the lamp in the opposite room on every night. That's all. I'd gladly come back. In the little bit I interacted with the hosts their responsiveness was immediate.

Country Cozy Comfort
This was our second time staying at this adorable cottage. I like to call the farmhouse, lol It is always so quiet and cozy. There is a beautiful deck out back for stargazing at night or deer, watching early in the morning. Such a wonderful place for family, cookouts and gatherings. The children loved running in the big yard and playing ball. The kitchen is big and equipped with all your needs to make a big breakfast, which we also enjoyed on the deck. The beds are comfortable and cozy to fall in to after a long day of fun. We always enjoy our stay and hope to return again in the future.

Another great stay at the Country Cottage!
This is our second stay here at the Country Cottage, and we enjoyed it as much as the first time. Both times were for weekends with extended family in the area, and the house and location are perfect for us. The house had all of the amenities needed. The hosts go above and beyond to ensure an enjoyable and comfortable stay! We'll be back.

Sweet, cozy, country cabin
The hosts were eager to help and to provide the most hospitable accommodations. My favorite times at the house were after sunlight with the soft lights of the lamps while enjoying a glass of wine while reading a book from their outstandingly well curated small library of literary greats as my teenage boys played chess, giggling away against the peace and quiet of being out in the country. We stayed here for a wedding and the stay was just as lovely as the event. Not far there is an A+ breakfast spot called G&G Restaurant. Everything on the menu is amazing but I cannot recommend the gyro omelet enough. (Ask for cucumbers.) All in all, a lovely stay and if I’m ever in need of a house in the rural outskirts of Pittsburgh, this is where I’ll choose again.

Just right for this trip
We were visiting the area for a dog training workshop and this house was perfect for us. The bedrooms were nice and LARGE, with plenty of floor space to fit a crate for my German Shepherd and still walk around without tripping over it! We've stayed in a few places where we could barely fit a crate so this was definitely appreciated. Also on this hot rainy weekend, we were very happy to have air conditioning that worked well! The grounds were very nice with plenty of room for the dogs to stretch their legs a bit. We enjoyed the visit and would stay again if we're back in the area.

Great space for family gathering
Great place to relax in peace and quiet. The deck was a great place for breakfast or just relax and birdwatch. Some folks mentioned the stairs and the road leading to the house were an issue. I didn't see an issue with either as the stairs are well lit with a sturdy hand rail and the road was easily navigated in my Camry. One thing to keep in mind is that you are in the country and there are insects that will want to come into the house with some eventually sneaking in, not an issue if you leave the bug attracting exterior lights off. This house is at the top of my list if I need to rent in the future.

Peaceful and quiet stay
Place was quiet and secluded, very nice option if you are looking to get away from civilization. You are about 45 minutes from Pittsburgh. Some of the surrounding roads are gravel and some are a little steep. The place was clean and everything was as expected. Be prepared to see a few stinkbugs or dead wasps in the house, which is normal for a heavily wooded area. You will enjoy your stay here.
