Great little getaway close to home

Amazing location in a beautiful home that will be sure to create lasting memories. We booked this location due to it's close proximity to 7 Springs and Hidden Valley for a family ski weekend. We had a great time in this lovely home.If you ever book this house. Take the time to enjoy a cup of coffee up in the family room and watch the sun rise.

Girls Trip!!

The pictures didn’t even do it justice! There are multiple gathering spaces. We had more than enough room for 13 women to gathering and gab. The view is breathtaking. Additionally, despite the rural location the Internet supported all guests cell phones AND the televisions. Super hard to find with secluded cabins! Lastly, our host was so responsive and helpful even after check out. The house was so clean and so beautiful.

Soothes the Soul

My family and I stayed at the cabin in mid October and celebrated my mother in law’s birthday. The owner was gracious enough to let us check in a few hours early so that we could decorate before my mother in law arrived. The owner was very responsive to our texts when we had questions. The home and the view was even better than the pictures (if that’s possible). The home and the property are immaculately maintained. The house is beautifully decorated and the view is amazing. Looking at that view for a few days truly soothes the soul. We would definitely rent this house again. Everyone had a great time!

Good family gathering place

The house is beautiful if not a little worn from use. The open floor plan and location was fabulous. Main complaints were the lack of secure internet and difficulties with the TV system. If you plan on being out a lot to enjoy skiing, etc. then this should not detract. We had older folks in our group who stayed in the house the entire time and they were disappointed by the TV issues. We also had two younger members who planned to do some work while here but could not due to internet issues. The mountain location is attributed to the internet issues. Putting these things aside, the weather cooperated and we had snow! We used the outside fire pit on a number of occasions and the outside grill. The game room was great fun for the youngest of the family and the open floor plan provided plenty of opportunities for conversation. Overall it is a good place for family gatherings.

Great ski getaway

Home was beautiful and comfortable - pictures show exactly how beautiful it is. Owner was extremely helpful and communicative, even escorted me to the property on the evening I arrived. Hidden Valley was a short 7 minute car ride away and we slept 2 families comfortably in the home. Kids loved the bunk bed room and games in the basement! I would highly recommend this rental.

Great house plenty of Square Footage for large family

We had three families meet for a Birthday Celebration. Unfortunately it rained most the entire weekend. We made the best of it and set up corn hole on the covered front porch. Hung out in the game room, made a fire and watched football on the large TV. Definitely worth the visit. Very clean and accommodating

About the host

Hosted by Wes Steele

Host profile image
Hi, I am Wes, and I would love the opportunity to host you and your group in my beautiful mountain cabin. My father and I started this beautiful mountain development known as Fern Mountain Development, located in the heart of the Laurel Highlands, in the 1990s. I grew up in the Laurel Highlands and love spending time in the outdoors with my family and dog. I strive to give all my guests a clean, comfortable, and memorable experience and I love having guests enjoy the mountains in our beautiful home as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

I love the mountain views from every part of this house. And the sunsets will take your breath away.

What makes this property unique

Being surround by the State Forest with miles of hiking trails, and the private pond for fishing are just a couple of the things that make this property stand out. The unique timber frame construction is one of a kind. And the spacious outdoor living space is great for relaxing and watching the sunsets.
