This was a great place for a group of colleagues to hang out before and after our conference sessions across the river. The narrow steep streets were a little challenging, but we enjoyed plenty of parking space right next to the house. We loved the upper patio and ended most days soaking in the hot tub. We even visited the hidden, well stocked game room.

Our family loved staying here. The 4 bedrooms plus 3 bathrooms were a plus for our family of 8. Game room provided extra fun for our kids and adults. Plenty of driveway parking. Hot tub was great and the outdoor patio was covered so we could play games even in the rain. We will be back.

Perfect for our large family!

We enjoyed our stay at this property! The house was very clean and the accommodations were very nice! We were very thankful for the off street parking as we had a large van. The hot tub was a big perk! Thank you for the wonderful stay!

Cozy and comfortable great location

We were in for the weekend for UPitt graduation and wanted a place to stay for family including grandparents. Place was perfect, very clean and well furnished. Beds were comfortable and kitchen was well stocked. House is walking distance to many restaurants and bars but far enough away to be quiet. Norma was a great communicator- we had a fantastic time.

Perfect for our adult family.

Was a bit concerned when we first pulled up to the property with the surrounding area but immediately felt safe and secure as we entered the property. The sleeping accommodations for our family of 8 adults perfectly. The kitchen was well supplied since we like to cook a big breakfast before beginning our daily adventure. The short walk to Carson street with so many restaurants, bars and shopping choices was a pleasant surprise. Would definitely stay here again!

Exploring Pittsburgh as a family

Our party consisted of three seniors, three adults, and three children ranging in ages from 4 to 9 years old… This property was perfect for our needs! It was spacious, clean, plenty of bathrooms, game room for the kids, hot tub for the adults, and location was close to many attractions!! The house comes with everything you need and the owners were very accommodating…. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Pittsburgh and our stay at this property!

Great house for a family or group of 10 or less!

Really enjoyed this house! Wonderful place in a really great part of town... so much to do both at the property and the surrounding area. Norma was great at communicating and very welcoming. Pictures are sometimes deceiving but not with this listing! We got exactly what we were expecting and were very pleased. I highly recommend this place.

The home provided just the number of bedrooms (4) and bathrooms (3.5) to make our party of 6 comfortable with enjoyable. The washer /dryer were essential to keeping our basketball uniforms clean & ready-to-use each day. Beds were compfy and kitchen was well-stocked with cooking essentials.

visiting the city for Senior Olympics

The property was set about 10-12 min from downtown which was great. Our host, Norma, was very responsive to any issues and questions we had. The outdoor sitting area was nice. The area was quiet and there were some great stores and restaurants just a few blocks away. This was within walking distance to one of the 3 rivers in Pittsburg, which made for a great walk. Pittsburg had more hills than we would have guessed and this property is on one of those hills. overall we had a great stay!

Volleyball Vacation

Our club volleyball team traveled to Pittsburgh this weekend for a tournament. Four mom/daughter pairs stayed together at the house instead of renting hotel rooms. It was exactly what we were looking for. There was plenty of room for all of us. The hot tub was great after a long day of games, and the girls had a lot of fun in the basement playing games. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. I would certainly stay here again if we travel back to Pittsburgh!

In town for Pedal Pittsburgh bike event

The house was very comfortable and worked well for our group of eight cyclists (ages 60-77) in town for a cycling event— and the host was terrific (very accommodating). The beds were ALL comfortable (very important) and the house was clean, with 3.5 bathrooms, which is hard to find. The house is within walking distance to Carson Street in Southside, which was very convenient. It’s located on a very narrow and super steep hill, but there’s plenty of off-street parking (enough space for four or five SUVs). There’s also a nice outdoor space that we enjoyed in the mornings and evenings. It provided lots of privacy despite the houses being very close together. We all had a great long weekend!

Weekend In the Burgh

Our family had concert tickets and hockey tickets for the weekend in Pittsburgh. We decided to skip the hotel and find a house. The house is nice…plenty of room for the eight of us. It is off the beaten path but walking distance to some nice restaurants and bars. We were able to Uber into the city but getting Ubers back became an issue. The only other issue was we seemed to run out of hot water fairly quickly. But other then that the place was perfect for us.
