Weekend with friends

A peaceful and happy time together at this property. Good location just steps away from the overlook and places to shop and eat. Spotlessly clean and well furnished. Good security features, so we felt safe and comfortable. Took us a moment to get used to the electronic bathrooms, though! We four seniors had some good laughs together. Overall, a good choice for us.

Tastefully decorated. Homey feeling. We’ll stocked with basics. Beds very comfortable. We had 10 people at once and had plenty of room to be able to converse. We visited the Hall of Fame at Acrisure stadium (don’t miss it), Clement Museum (amazing), Primantis, Mineos Pizza and took in a Pirates game at PNC Park. So much to do but so little time!!

Everything was as the owner described. We had a fantastic time. I had been in communication with the owner prior to our visit. She even made suggestions regarding activites while we were where. We really enjoyed Pittsbugh and were impressed with the August Wilson musem and the Roberto Clementi musem. Great spot, even with the "hilly" streets.!!

Great stay

Lovely home. Great view. Nice neighborhood. Street parking is difficult overall but the home is on the Southside Slopes - no one finds it easy to park there. If you have an average size car, there is the garage. The neighbors were very nice. Older home with a really good feel. Updated throughout. Very clean. Easy to communicate with the owner. Recommended.

Great Place to Stay

We stayed a week to attend a family wedding. Originally from Pittsburgh, I had never experienced South side slopes before! Absolutely stunning views, great stairs and paths to exercise each day, and lots of great restaurants and thrift shops on on the South side. Even a little coffee shop within walking distance. House was clean and appointed nicely. Host was great, and very open communication. Driving the hillside is tricky, and when parking, you must be very skillful, overall, love every minute of the stay!

Volleyball Tournament

The best part of our stay was the view from the front porch. Absolutely stunning! Everything in the house was exactly as defined in the listing. I took one star off for location simply for the crazy roads getting up to the house and the parking if you had more than one car. Doable, but a little challenging. Would be super tough in the winter. We would stay here again if we are ever back in Pittsburgh.

Great views!

The house was wonderfully clean and fresh. Seems like the owner put a lot of work into updates and it paid off - a beautiful home. Was great to be able to park in the garage. The views were fantastic. We truly enjoyed our stay. Thank you! Not a negative, just an FYI - Do be aware that the streets leading to the house are narrow & steep. Was “fun” navigating them in our minivan, but we managed.

Great place to stay when visiting the 'Burg

Needed a place to stay for 6 adults and a baby while visiting family. This house was very spacious and accommodated our needs. It was also very convenient to down town and and the various highways we needed access to to visit family north of the city. June was great at communicating with us and making sure we had everything we needed.

Nice stay in February

Our family of adults stayed in the house for a weekend in February. The house was lovely. There are two things worth mentioning. One, the upstairs bedroom was cold. We believe it is due to an open crawl space. Our 30+ year old son stayed up there and slept fine but he had 3 blankets on. Two, one of the bathrooms is in the basement which we didn’t realize from the listing. Not a deal breaker at all but worth mentioning. A real positive is the communication from the owner. The day of our arrival an issue was identified with the internet which interferes with the keyless entry. June reached out while her husband was trying to resolve it and walked me through where the lockbox was so we could have the option of using a key. The internet issue was ultimately resolve and the keyless entry worked wonderfully, but knowing the key was available as well was comforting and the communication throughout very helpful. Thank you for a great weekend away!
