It’s very peaceful and quiet. The back patio is a nice place to sit. The hot tub and koi pond are a nice touch. The home keeps a mixture of the original feel with modern updates.

We absolutely loved our visit to Susie’s home. It was perfect for me, my family, and our doggo. Thank you for hosting us, everything was so beautifully presented, the beds were comfy, everything was clean and tidy, and Susie was so helpful. My only regret is not booking a longer stay. We will be back!

We had an exceptional experience! The instructions for how to access the home as well as what amenities were available along with how to use them were incredibly detailed. This home definitely is an oasis. The oasis feeling paired with the charm of the home left us feeling relaxed. Its proximity to major Pittsburgh attractions was the cherry on top. We were sad to leave but excited to take some landscaping inspo home with us.

We had a wonderful stay. The property was exactly as described—charming, comfortable, and the perfect quiet retreat. Everything was well maintained, and the peaceful setting made it easy to relax and unwind. The hosts were very communicative, responsive, and easy to work with throughout the entire process. We truly enjoyed our time here and would gladly stay again. Highly recommend!
