About this property

Almost Heaven! Minutes to Seven Springs.

Our cozy family cabin is located in the heart of the Laurel Highlands. It has been in our family for over thirty years and we'd love to share it with you! We are minutes away from Seven Springs Mountain Resort and Hidden Valley Resort. A magnificent mountainous region, the Laurel Highlands spans 3,000 square miles of Fayette, Somerset, and Westmoreland Counties in southwestern Pennsylvania. We are located just east of Pittsburgh off of the PA Turnpike. Easily accessed from any direction. Our beautiful four season destination offers amazing outdoor recreation, natural scenery, world class resorts, historic sites, family activities and attractions! One of the best trout streams in PA is within walking distance of the cabin. Very private property. We would love to have you as our guest. Four wheel drive is recommended during the winter months.

Cozy mountain getaway

Cute and cozy place to get away from it all. Plenty of space for myself and my kids. No WiFI, but I ended up enjoying that.

Relaxing stay

Loved the setting by the woods (could hang my hammock) and away from the road, the cottage atmosphere, the sunroom, and the deer! There was a little bit of a musty smell. Comfy bed.

Weekend trip

We wanted to stay somewhere near Seven Springs Resort for the weekend, and this place was about 15 mins away. Place was immaculate. Each room had fresh towels. Beds were comfortable. I would stay here again if I was back in the area.

Great Owners and Comfortable Stay!

Great quiet location and very accommodating owners. I had concerns from a previous review about smell, and there was no issue at all. The house was very well stocked. House is a 10 minute drive to Seven Springs and 5 minutes to the snowmobile trails.Only thing to note, if coming in the winter, make sure you have four wheel drive.

cozy

loved the space and perfect for us and for games! only downside, there is no wifi which isn’t clearly explicit which was unfortunate as someone had to do a little work and was unable to do so at the house.

nice area, clean, but house could use some work

This is a no frills house in a beautiful area. We stayed in the summer and there was a strong musky/mildew odor in the house and some ants inside, but the house was fairly clean for what it is - it's an older house that could really use some new carpet, etc, but is well stocked. Also, there is no WiFi and cellular service can be limited for certain carriers, which is nice for unplugging in nature for the visit, but just be sure to plan for that ahead of time

Wonderful cabin, cozy, comfortable and very close to the ski resort. Amazing hosts

Beautiful and cozy mountain cabin. Amazing views! And 15 minutes drive to seven springs resort. The hosts are incredible, al ways available to resolve any issue. We stayed for 8 amazing days during winter break. The cabin was very clean, beds were very comfortable and sheets and towels of very good quality. The kitchen is very well equipped and they have games and puzzles to share with the family. There is no WiFi and phone coverage is poor which for us was great since it allowed for quality time with our teenage boys. Neil and his wife are super hosts, very helpful in everything that we needed. Thank you so much to both of you for sharing your beautiful cabin. Perfect home to enjoy nature and the mountains.

I’m not a reviewer and I don’t want to write this because Neil was so nice, but… The house had a STRONG odor of must and mildew. I mean strong. We almost turned around and left but decided to go to the local Family Dollar and buy candles and plug-in air fresheners and it helped. Although it wasn’t necessarily dirty, it was old and very outdated. I mean how clean can 40yr old carpet be? The main bathroom was very small and had no vent fan so it just holds moisture. I’m 6’3” and could barely sit down. I found the 1/2 bath upstairs to have more legroom. On the plus side…the cabin is fully stocked with almost anything you would need to clean, cook etc. Batteries, ligh bulbs, paper towels, soaps, matches , lighters, spices, plastic wrap, baggies, cutlery including plastic… you name it and it was there which was greatly appreciated. Firewood waiting by the fire pit was great and we enjoyed that on our last night. Location was great. 5 min from Laurel Hills State park and 7 Springs but secluded with a big yard and woods behind. The owner was also fine with us checking in a few hours early and the lockbox/check in process was a breeze.

Hi,
My name is Neill P Andritz and I have been a VRBO host for seventeen years! I love sharing our properties with fellow members and giving them the opportunity to enjoy what we have to offer.

Why they chose this property

We chose this location due to it's private setting and proximity to all the Laurel Highlands has to offer. It is also very close to Seven Springs and Hidden Valley ski resorts. The Great Allegheny Passage is also only a few miles away.

What makes this property unique

The secluded nature of our property allows you to reset from the busy outside world.
