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.

Our stay was very comfortable and relaxing. The home was warm, cozy, clean and well stocked with essentials. We enjoyed the views of snow on mountain/hills as well as several deer. The home provided us with much needed restful nights. Our host was readily available and responsive to our needs. We would love to come back in the future.
Home was just as described- Owner was nice enough to leave a book containing all information needed and each bed provided several pillows- We will be looking to stay here again.

Nice quiet cottage beautiful view of sky at night , extremely cozy , very clean !
Although old, the house is sparkling clean and the grounds are well kept. Cozy furniture, good wifi. Bring a fan for the upstairs if staying during warm months.
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!
Very secluded area. Pleasant and peaceful surroundings. Enjoyed a brilliant meteor shower during our stay also which we could never do from home. Very clean.
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.
Warm and forthcoming hosts focused on client cofort and satisfaction. Spacious, well appointed house on large estate which invites roaming and hiking. Altogether an excellent choice.
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.
Seeing all the wildlife around was great especially the deer in the morning. Also loved the neighbors beagle that came by to say hi a few times. Only minor issue was there seemed to be several stink bugs upstairs that i had to kill off and also found a few hornets buzzing around upstairs. They didnt bother me but it may others.
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.
This was my partner and I's second time staying here and it is always so cozy in the winter months. It's very vintage, but I normally live in an RV so I certainly don't mind that aspect. We got some rain this time and you can hear the rain on the roof and it's just such a nice, calming experience. Both of us love staying there. The only thing I'll note is that the bathroom is kind of made for small people. Totally okay with me since I'm 5'2 and my partner is 5'5 but just keep that in mind!
