About this property

Private Cottage minutes from Moraine State Park and McConnell's Mill State Park.

Tranquil Flower garden, wrap around deck with wooded back and fireplace. Only 40 minutes from Downtown Pittsburgh. Great place to get away from it all... If you need me I’ll be available to message, but won’t be around to bother you.

The place was great. Comfy bed, plenty of towels. Near enough to cute towns of Harmony and Zelienopal but still secluded in order to unplug which was the intention of the weekend.

Great dog friendly place to stay

We very much enjoyed our stay, and we're so appreciative that we could find somewhere to stay while traveling with my dog on short notice. The home was very clean and comfortable, and the location is perfect for visiting the state parks nearby.

Near the Atrium for a Wedding

This was a perfect location for us with our dogs. We were able to be close to the wedding venue, but also able to explore the two state parks.
