Fantastic!

This is one of my favorite locations I’ve stayed at. The house is lovely, clean, comfortable, quiet, has everything you need, the pool and hot tub are fantastic, and it’s close to anywhere you want to go while feeling like a hideaway retreat. I’m already looking forward to coming back!

The ad was inaccuate which was a problem...

My family is pretty flexible, but the ad says there are 3 bedrooms which sleeps 8.Bedroom 1: 2 Queen BedsBedroom 2: 2 Queen BedsBedroom 3: 3 Double Bunk Beds and 1 Twin BedIn actuality, there were 3 bedrooms, but there were no room with 2 beds in any room, and no bunk beds.We were in the area for a funeral and we trusted that we could sleep 8, We invited 2 groups to spend the night, but the lack of beds caused them to both leave early. One had to get a hotel room. Thanks.

Family friendly and cozy

We had a great time at Katies house! The house is very cozy, and is a great set up for kids. Our 4 year old son loved having all the toys to play with! Katie wsd very responsive and answered all our questions very promptly. We didnt use the pool but it looked like it would have been a fun time! We would stay here again.

Inaccurate Listing

Listing had 3 bedrooms: two with 2 queen beds in each, and one with 3 bunkbeds and a twin bed. Perfect for a group of 8 friends for a weekend away. However, two bedrooms contained just 1 queen bed and 1 twin bed in each. The third bedroom had a single queen bed. When we contacted the host she rather snippily told us that it sleeps 8 and thats how many we booked for. When we pointed out we didn't particularly want to double up, she again stressed that we could all fit in the beds that were there. Katie also informed us we could leave if we were not happy.Since we had already planned for the weekend away, we just decided to make the best of it. Besides the bed situation, it was a relatively nice house and backyard pool area.Then, we found the unsecured weapons in an unlocked closet. Several boxes of ammo, a couple of knives, and a crossbow with crossbow bolts (arrows). There was also a gun safe. This was particularly disturbing as the listing is geared towards families.What is unfortunate is that this could be a very nice vacation property. Its in a good location and has some nice amenities, such as the pool and grill. The host had put out pool towels and there were pool floaties. Also she had kids books, markers, and drawing paper set out for kids to use. The beds were comfortable and the house general clean. But Katie needs to remove weapons and personal documents, and improve interactions with guests who have legit concerns.

The title of the listing says it all.

The title of the listing, "Spacious cozy retreat, off the beaten path close to all Pittsburgh attractions" is a perfect description for this home. The location is super quiet in a good way. No highway noise, no loud neighbors, almost too quiet ;) Plenty of off street parking is on site which was a big plus for me. We didn't interact with any of the neighbors though a number of them waved as they drove or walked by. Definitely a welcoming environment. While it is 'off the beaten path' it is also fairly close to the local highway (state route?) with plenty of stores and restaurants an exit down. There's also a place called The Eatery very close by on Rich Hill Rd which has a number of ready made food items and a made to order with various breakfast items and lunch/light dinner sandwiches, etc. On top of all of that, the home had a variety of snack crackers and such, a well stocked cabinet of spices & seasonings, some juice boxes in the fridge and a keurig coffee maker.
