Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re glad you enjoyed the great location and that our team could be helpful during your stay. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d be happy to welcome you back anytime!
It was a comfortable place to stay for a family get-together around the holidays. We were a group of five adults and three young children and found the house well equipped to meet our needs with a pack-n-play, high chair, kitchen with kids plates/utensils and working dishwasher/washer/dryer. There were no issues finding nearby street parking and the walk to the main street in Verona is short.

Thank you so much for staying with us and for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review! We’re so glad the home worked well for your family gathering and that the pack-n-play, high chair, and kid-friendly kitchen setup helped make traveling with little ones easier.
It’s great to hear that parking was convenient and that you enjoyed the short walk to Verona’s main street, one of our favorite parts of the neighborhood. We truly enjoyed hosting your group and would be happy to welcome you back anytime you’re in the area.
Beautifully remodeled home in an older neighborhood. Great host!

Very enjoyable stay at this house. Everything that was needed was provided. Great location from restaurants and Oakmont Bakery (a must). Bridgette was extremely communicative and helpful during the stay. Highly recommend if you need to stay in the Pittsburgh area.

We truly appreciate your kind words! It’s wonderful to hear you enjoyed the home, the friendly neighborhood, and even our little visitors, the rabbits and deer. Hope to welcome you back again soon!
This house had everything our group needed! Brigette was super responsive anytime we had a question and was an excellent host! We had a great experience here!
Great house for a group stay. Lots of bedroom space, well stocked kitchen, and in the remodel they maintained a lot of the "classic Pittsburgh" look. Host very responsive to asks. Would come back!
We enjoyed our stay very much. Bridgette and Mary kept in contact with us and made sure we had everything we needed! House was spacious and clean, and in a convenient area. Would definitely stay here again next time we are in the area!!

Thanks to Brigette & Mary for our wonderful stay in Pittsburgh at the Robin’s Nest. They exceeded our expectations from checkin in to check out. I can’t say enough about the effortless check in, check out, decor and cleanliness! When I’m back visiting family in Pittsburgh I know where I’ll be staying.
Thank you for a wonderful stay. The house is charming with plenty of room and everything you will need.Lovely hosts & great communication. Appreciate that you are dog friendly! Made our trip a pleasure! We'll be back!

House is really well done and decorated nicely. We parked on the street but never had an issue finding a spot. Note that the wood floors can be a bit creaky (especially on the stairs), so if you are a light sleeper or have children who take naps, you may want to consider bringing a noise machine.

Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the home and its décor, and that street parking was easy during your stay. We appreciate your note about the creaky wood floors, being a historic home, some original features do add a bit of character, and your suggestion about a noise machine is helpful for future guests. We’re happy you stayed with us and would love to welcome you back!
This rental was needed to attend family grad party in the area. The house was withing walking to restaurants it was close to supermarket and easy to get in and out.
The garage is tight to get in and out so if you have a big car you will need to park on the street. We have a Equinox and the garage was fine.
This is an old home in the Pittsburgh and it has character. The home is clean. The floors do squeak but that is part of the character.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience! We’re glad the home worked well for your trip and that the location made it easy to get around, with restaurants and shops close by. We appreciate your note about the garage size and the character of the home—being an older Pittsburgh house, the original charm does come with a few squeaky floors. We’re happy to hear everything was clean and comfortable for your stay. It was a pleasure hosting you, and you’re welcome back anytime
We stayed 2 weeks. Of course over that time things popped up. There was an electric breaker box that needed a breaker thrown, no problem as husband handled. No dishwasher soap, no large pot or decent fry pan, grill tongs , facial tissues, so we purchased all and intended to leave them until we asked to delay check out from 10 am to noon as our flight didn’t leave till 4:40 and was only non stop. We were told there would be a charge so we left at 10 and gave all lthings we purchased away. The owner walked away from 100 or more of things purchased and bad will. This wasn’t a weekend stay. Bad policy. One size does NOT fit all.
I can't say enough about this property and how well it suited our needs. The entire interior is updated and was immaculately clean upon our arrival. Some additional attention to detail like chocolates in the bedrooms and flower-petal tissue tops were also a nice touch! The rooms on the top floor each have their own heating/cooling unit and came in very handy. All four bedrooms were comfortable and with those along with two full bathrooms we slept 7 comfortably (we could have easily had 8). There's also an elevated back porch/deck area complete with evening lights. We travel with 3 small, non-shedding dogs and were extremely appreciative of being able to bring them along. We found the surrounding neighborhood to be pretty quiet and low key. There are eateries in downtown Verona that are a very short walk away, and many more in downtown Oakmont if you're willing to walk 10-15 minutes or so which we were (and if not, all of that is literally a 5 minute or less drive). This could not have been a better location for us overall. We have family 15 minutes away to the north but also spent time in downtown Pittsburgh which is 15-20 minutes to the south. We will absolutely be looking to stay here again for future visits!

“Thank you so much for this incredibly thoughtful and detailed review! We’re thrilled to hear the home suited your needs so well and that the updates, cleanliness, and small touches made your stay even more comfortable. It’s great to know the bedroom setups and separate heating/cooling units helped everyone feel at home, and that the space accommodated your group—and your pups—so comfortably. We’re glad you enjoyed the deck area and the convenience of the surrounding neighborhoods, from Verona to Oakmont and beyond. The location really does make it easy to reach both family nearby and downtown Pittsburgh. We truly appreciate you choosing to stay with us, and we would be absolutely delighted to welcome you back on your next visit!
We absolutely enjoyed our stay at this lovely house. It checked off our MUST boxes, plus a lot more.
This house was CLEAN. Everywhere. Even in the closets.
The neighborhood seemed very SAFE. Kids played outside with parents watching, people sat on their porches, surrounding homes were well-kept.
The house was LARGE and accommodated all 6 of us. It could easily accommodate more. There are 4 bedrooms - 2 on the 2nd floor and 2 on the 3rd floor. There are 2 full bathrooms - 1 on the 1st floor and 1 on the 2nd floor.
The house was beautifully decorated. The kitchen was nicely stocked with essentials. Bathrooms had clean, soft, large towels and washcloths and plenty of quality toilet tissue.
There is a nice front porch to sit on and a seating area out back.
There were extra rooms we did not get to use during our busy weekend stay - the gym, the reading room, or the laundry.
Communication was EXCELLENT! Also, first rental that I didn't struggle to remember the lock passcode - clever!
The only difficulty was for our oldest family member who would have preferred less steps to get to her bedroom on the 2nd floor. There are a few steps to the front porch, and a few more if you use the kitchen door. Something to consider if you are traveling with someone with a mobility challenge. The description is clear about this so no one should be surprised.
We just loved this beautiful home and will definitely stay there again and recommend it to others.
