The master bedroom has a king sized bed and full bath including a jacuzzi tub and a beautifully designed, separate standing glass encased shower. The second and third bedrooms have queen sized beds and share a separate full sized bathroom. Without leaving our property you can enjoy the natural beauty of the area while relaxing on our spacious deck, which includes a patio set, hot tub and grill.

I’m sorry you couldn’t figure out how to get the dishwasher to work, but after your stay, I checked it and it was working properly. I did notice that there was a pot put in the upper rack that kept the dishwasher from latching shut in order to start. I’m not sure what happened when you tried but again it is functioning. Thanks for your input and staying at my place!

The house is in a lovely location. The sounds of the creek and the birds, particularly, in the morning were very peaceful. It's in close proximity to Fallingwater, which is definitely a plus. Check-in was smooth, the house was very clean, well-stocked, and the host was quick to respond. The hot tub was lovely! The main reason for my relatively lower rating is that the water smelled very strongly of sulfur. To her credit, the host assured me the smell is normal as soon as I contacted her, but even if it's safe, it's still very unpalatable. I didn't see any indication of the smell in the VRBO listing, but it's possible I missed it. We ended up buying bottled water to drink and to use for coffee because the smell was so unpleasant. There were also some other minor to moderate issues, like moldy and somewhat broken outside chairs, coffee pot taking over an hour to brew, etc.

Hi Laura, I am sorry that that you had an issue with the Sulphur smell. Unfortunately, during the time you came, there were heavy rains, which causes this smell to be stronger. Most people do not have an issue with this. There is something on VRBO about my water. Most people do buy bottled water when coming to my home. I am sorry about the patio furniture outside, I did spray it after you departed, but My home is in the hollow of a mountain, so it is easy for moss and lichens to easily attach and grow on outdoor furniture. Since then, my new outdoor chairs have been delivered. I moved the old patio furniture out near the fire pit because it’s something would happen to it (for instance I have had people actually burn my patio furniture near the fire pit) I would not have an issue with guests and would not charge them. So now there is two sets of patio furniture. Some people are use to mountain water and some people are not. Fortunately, this year I have plans to upgrade the water filtration system, but until then, yes there is iron and sulfur in my water, but it is nothing that would harm anyone. Thanks again for booking with me.

Hi Deb, I’m glad you enjoyed the house and I appreciate your constructive criticism. I will get a knife sharpener at the house, but I ask that Guests do not to leave the windows open during any time especially winter time. During your stay, it was quite cold out, so I’m not understanding why you would need to leave the windows hang open, but I clearly state can my rules not to do this or to let the doors hang open. By doing so, that would cost me a tremendous amount in energy in trying to keep the home hot, but cool air blowing in while you sleep??. I ask that any guest that I have not do this and not putting screens in the window keeps Guests from doing this; unbelievablelast winter I had one guest do this and they forgot to close the window after their stay. I did not get to the house until two days later to clean the house and the window was left wide open the entire time. This resulted in me getting a $900 electric bill. I am a teacher on a budget and my Airbnb‘s basically pay for themselves so I kindly ask all my guest to please conserve energy in anyway they can. Do not in any way. Let my windows or doors hang open during any time of the year. Thanks again for your business.

The house and property was absolutely gorgeous!! Very peaceful and relaxing. It had every amenity you could think of. Brandy (our host) went above and beyond for us. T mmhere was a Winter storm coming during our stay, she let us check in a little early to get ahead of it. Then later that night drove on the bad roads to provide us a snow shovel so we could get a clear path to the hot tub, which was also amazing!! We'll definitely be renting this property again!!

We enjoyed our stay, but the water in the hot tub was green and had a terrible smell. It seemed unsanitary. The hot tub was the main reason we booked the home, so it was a bit disappointing. Also, there wasn't enough hot water to fill the jacuzzi tub and when running the water in the tub, there was sand in the water. Otherwise, the house was nice and clean.

Response from VrboOwner on 23 February 2026
Hi Kasey, I wish you would have messaged to let me know your concern. I just put fresh water in my hot tub which the water I put in is very high in iron. When mixing the chlorine with the water that has high levels of iron in it, it oxidizes and turns a green hue. You indicated that the hot tub had an awful smell, and when I first put fresh water in it, it does do this because of it being well water and having some sulfur in it. Leaving the lid off for a little bit, you would see the smell would dissipate. It does take a day or two when freshwater has been put in for the smell to subside with the chlorine. In regards to the Jacuzzi tub, there is not sand in the water, but minerals do occasionally come out because it is again well Water. I do mention this all in my property description. I also mentioned that the well Water and possibly staying closed if you choose to wash your clothes in my washer. This is posted on the wall. Again, I wish you would’ve messaged me and it could’ve been explained. I’m sorry your experience was not what you wished it to be. I do hope you have a good evening. Brandy Freese

Communication with host was phenomenal, and she accommodated our request for a slightly earlier check in. WiFi was available at the house, although there is no cell service in the area. The house was well stocked with DVDs and some board games. The property was perfect for a quiet getaway.The furnishings were a little more rustic than I was expecting and the house felt dark and dated. Minor things that would have made the stay a little nicer— the patio furniture is ready for replacement, the shower heads need descaled or replaced, the hot tub needs fresh water and continuous filtering, soap in the bathroom soap dispensers, higher quality silverware…. All minor, but it added up.The tap water had a very high mineral/metal content and sulfur smell. We ended up going to town to buy bottled water. Overall we did not have a bad experience, but a little more attention to detail would have made a huge impact.

About the host

Hosted by Brandy I. Freese

Host profile image
My name is Brandy I. Freese. I grew up in the Confluence area my entire life. I am a full-time special education teacher and live approximately two miles away from the house.

Why they chose this property

I first purchased this property from my grandfather in 2006. I wanted to buy this land because it was the place that I lived with my parents when I was first born. Built in 2009, I lived in the home for 8 years, until I moved and changed it to the Yough Mountain House of May 2017.

What makes this property unique

Only 2 miles from the town of Confluence and 9 miles from the town of Ohiopyle, Yough Mountain House has all the ammenties one would want/need from home. With an ample amount of outdoor space, Yough Mountain house is the perfect place for small or large group gatherings.

What made me fall in Love with my home was the beautiful views and the peaceful setting.
