About this property

Luxuriant Frank Lloyd Wright Inspired Accommodations--The Dream House

Enjoy a dream getaway at this Talisin certified Frank Lloyd Wright, 2800 square foot, 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom property, nestled in the best of Laurel Highlands nature, just miles from Ohiopyle, Kentuck Knob and Fallingwater. Take in the sun on the back porch; enjoy the summer waterfall fountain, watch the stars from the hot tub and recline in the expansive living room, walk the nearly 4 acres of stream front beauty or simply "unplug" and soak in the quiet of this spectacular home. John Rattenbury was a principal architect and planner for Taliesin Architects until 2003. This home was much in the spirit of Wright's 1938 Life Maganize Dream House. Take time to visit in the home's library and learn more about it's history, while you schedule your trip to Fallingwater or Kentuck Knob!

While the water feature is a beautiful part of the landscape, due to weather conditions it is only operational from Memorial Day thru Labor Day.

We had the most wonderful Girls' Weekend! The hot tub was lovely! We made a wonderful dinner in the kitchen. This house is amazing - it was great to relax and decompress and just play cards, visit, and enjoy the autumn foliage. The hosts were very responsive and fabulous to work with. We are already thinking about a return trip!!

Quiet Country Setting

This house is well designed and well built. The area was very quiet and secluded. The only down side was that there are no curtains or shades on the windows due to the style of the house. The kitchen was a little dirty when we arrived but everything else was perfect! We had a great time.

A special place

This property is amazing. The interior details to the outdoor space exceeded our expectations. The design is stunning, with lots of room for the 6 of us inside and outside. We enjoyed hanging outside on the patio. kitchen was fully equipped with all that you need. We had trouble with WIFI to pull up code to enter, but David was so quick to respond and we were right in! We love the area and are already talking about going back. It truly is a special place.

Immerse yourself in the Wright experience.

For those Frank Lloyd Wright fans, this home is like a living museum dedicated to Wright with its design, décor, and educational materials, which provided endless interest for our family group. It also is a wonderfully comfortable and spacious house, in the most beautiful and quiet of locations. It was very well supplied and had everything we needed. It was a short drive from sights, activities and restaurants. We didn't want to leave. Be careful driving, especially at night, as we did see deer crossing the roads.

Exactly Wright!

A special property that beautifully met our friend group vacation needs as well as fulfilled a life dream of living in a Frank Lloyd Wright-style home. We loved that a decorated Christmas tree was lit up in the living room when we arrived! The kitchen had everything we needed with a cozy table for gathering. We dined well. Beds & baths met our different styles and preferences perfectly and we slept well. The full property and grounds are beautiful - especially the porch and river. The waether was nice enough to allow us to enjoy more than we anticipated. The location was also great for driving in from different places and plenty to do (if you want to leave!) not too long of a drive away.

Dream House

Better than we could have imagined. This was a surprise stay on a bucket list trip for my older sister. She had always wanted to see Fallingwaters and has been a life long fan of Frank Lloyd Wright. When her daughter started to plan the trip and was looking at hotels in the area, I suggested we search VRBO. The house came up, we loved the description and it was available. It was so much more. What’s beautiful house on beautiful tranquil property with a stream in the back, fall colors on the trees, and wild turkeys for our entertainment. The kitchen was well stocked, the beds were so comfy, the library of FLW books was beyond amazing. We wished we could stay longer to take it all in. Every detail of this beautiful place was so thought out. We would love to go back!!

Just about perfect

This is a beautiful home in a quiet and serene location. The property and landscaping are impressive. The house features interesting architecture, a nice layout, and comfortable furnishings. And although the house is extremely private, it is actually quite close (20 minutes or less) to any number of restaurants, activities, or shopping. Unfortunately there is no cell service, and while I understand the owner's desire for unplugging and disconnecting, not offering full wifi access to guests in this day and age is somewhat disappointing. Also, there is/was no firewood and it might be nice to at least offer guests to purchase some and have it be there upon arrival. Had a great weekend with great friends, however, and did not regret our choice even a little bit.

Annual OhioPyle friends trip

We love this place. Our second time staying here. This Frank Lloyd Wright inspired home is perfection! The kitchen, living room and outdoor space is perfect for friends to hang out together, cook and relax inside or on the patio. The new hot tub was a hit after hiking! If you want to visit OhioPyle area this is a perfect place.

Beautiful Home and Property

Great property. Super location for access to Ohiopyle and FLW locations. Very clean and well maintained. Kitchen wonderfully equipped. Probably the best kitchen in any location I've rented through VRBO.. Home is really cool. We had two couples so we each had a bedroom on either side of the main portion of the house. Each had its own adjoining bath. Covered patio and fire pit were a great bonus. Property is beautiful with small creek running through it. Saw deer and other critters rummaging about in the morning when we had coffee on the patio. Would highly recommend.

Kentucky knob visit

Lovely home and property. We were thrilled with the quality of the home and cleanliness. The owner had the kitchen really well stocked and we made good use of the charcuterie board. Loved the outdoors and had all of our meals outside and then enjoyed a fire in the solo fire pit. Hope to return when the waterfall is turned on!

Hidden gem in the hills

When we planned our trip to PA, it was imperative that we stayed near Farmington. We have family in the area and didn’t want to spend the whole vacation driving. The options were limited to a hotel that didn’t return calls and a resort that caters to royalty. We had never used VRBO before, but when we saw the Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired Dream Home, we fell in love. The beautiful home on the bank of a flowing stream, surrounded by wildlife and having very limited internet availability was exactly what this PNW family needed to unplug and relax. The home was very clean and well maintained. Being early spring, heavy rain and swollen water left the back yard little more than a marsh. It was beautiful to look at, but unusable for the most part. I can’t wait to stay again in the summertime to take advantage of the grounds. We had some unexpected visitors during the stay as well. Wild turkeys, ducks, ring-neck pheasants, and deer were frequent visitors to the yard in the mornings. It was wonderful to sit in the breakfast nook with huge windows to watch them play on the banks of the stream. Our host was very responsive to all questions, responding quickly and courteously. We will not have to worry about accommodations for future trips. The Dream Home is truly a home away from home for us!

The John's Family has owned this property for many years; but, in the 1990's the dream to build a Frank Lloyd Wright home was realized. The owners' love of art, architecture and quiet retreat all come together in this beautiful home. Their love exudes through in the quiet, peace of their home! Now made available and shared with others.

Why they chose this property

This property has a quiet resting peace about it that you can really indulge. The luxurious accommodation are only equalled by the beauty of the country estate on the banks of the Big Sandy Creek in Wharton Township.

What makes this property unique

Quiet beauty, luxurious accommodations, rest, read, enjoy one of the many quiet areas of this home or lose track of time in the library.
