We loved our time at Mountain Grove! Lisa is a great host and provided lots of tips before we arrived on things to do and places to eat. Her recommendations were great and we found a couple of new places that we wouldn't have otherwise known about.The house is wonderful and fit our family of 5 very well. My kids (ages 4, 7, and 9) loved the treehouse! It was the perfect place for them to hang out when we were at the house. The house was cozy and had everything we needed to have a comfortable stay.Mountain Grove is also in a great location. We did a different activity each day of our trip and were able to get to all of the activities we wanted to do in southwest PA in hour or less. We HIGHLY recommend this house and will definitely stay here agin!
Lisaâs mountain retreat is very clean, beautiful setting, close to many outdoor activities. We live in Florida so the mountains and surrounding beautiful area was a treat for us. Very attentive host, great place for families, my Granddaughters loved the treehouse loft! Awesome front porch for morning coffee or evening cocktails, everything we needed and more! Thank you Lisa for a memorable vacation!
Our family loved staying in this house, itâs far enough out of town yet close enough to everything. My kids LOVED the indoor tree house and didnât want to be anywhere else. The property owner was absolutely amazing, so attentive and helpful. She gave several different suggestions of things to do and see in the area.
We booked this to be near where our family grew up and also near great hiking trails. It worked out very well. The cabin was spacious and well appointed, providing everything we needed. Coffee on the front porch in the mornings was heaven. Unfortunately the weather didnât let us use the fire pit, but it is a nice spot and would have been great if it stopped raining. We were really close to a lovely winery, ski resorts, a local dairy with fantastic ice cream, and a town close by with good eating options. I particularly liked the Mexican restaurant. Great hiking at several state parks was really close. While the cabin is one floor, there is a large step down into the living room and one bathroom. Doesnât detract from the charm of the place, but if you have small children or older family members, itâs something to be aware of. We thought this place was great and would stay again!
My family enjoyed our stay at Mountain Grove immensely. I brought a lot of extra supplies along that I didn't really need because it was well provided for with the everyday necessities. I appreciated that.Also, my 4 year old grandson loved all the games and books on site, and he loved playing in the loft. With a fair amount of rain over the weekend keeping us indoors he was able to keep himself entertained. The cabin is very kid-friendly. Thank you for the memories!
We had a great time! The house was very clean and comfortable. We went with two 16-year-olds who absolutely loved the tree house loft. The fire pit was perfect for relaxing in the evenings. Youâre close to other houses, but it was worth it. The location was great, close to museums and Fallingwater. Lisa was extremely responsive annd very accommodating. We had so much fun and would definitely come back!
This spacious, cute, and immaculate cabin is in a terrific location for skiing, other activities, and food. The cabin is stocked with all necessities and more. Our kids loved the loft. Highly recommend!!!!!
Lisa was an excellent host and the property met all of our expectations. Top notch host all around! Very informative about the property as well as the local area. The house was perfect fit for our group on a ski trip. Very cozy and had everything we needed during our stay! The kids loved the loft area! We would definitely recommend, and return in the future!
we have a great time in this property. We booked this house for ski at seven spring. surprisingly we found hidden valley ski resort. It is only 3 mins away from this house, very convenience. The house is clean and very warm, there are ski boots tray to keep organize the boot. The kids have lots of fun on the tree house, they play game after coming back from ski. The host response fast, easy to check in and check out. There are snow during our snow, the road was cleaned fast and safe to drive.
We stayed with our kids ages 5-10 and loved this cabin. Easy, quick drive to the ski resorts, had everything we needed and was super clean and well kept. If it's snowing when you arrive, you'll want 4WD to get up the hill to the cabin. Would stay again!
This was the best cabin for our group of 7!! Plenty of communal space, SO CLEAN, a super fun loft area for the kids, and a beautiful outdoor view. Lisa was an unbelievably kind host, with lots of information about the sites and restaurants of the surrounding towns. Weâre talking about staying again next year!!
Sweet cottage for the weekend in the Laurel Highlands. Very clean, well kept cottage met our needs for the weekend. The host was attentive and helpful during our stay and supplied LOTS of information for the area! We came to see Frank Lyod Wright's Fallingwater, stopping along the way at the Flight 93 Memorial. Beutiful area, wineries, cute shops, lovely parks. Thank you Lisa!
We had such a wonderful time at this cabin. It was the perfect fit for our family . Our 3 boys loved the tree house and loved playing up in the tree house . The house was beautifully decorated, clean, and had everything we needed for our weekend . The host was very responsive and checked in on us to make sure everything was going well. I hope we can come back again sometime to make more memories !
Very nice mountain cabin. Clean and well maintained.. Spacious great room with wonderful big windows for lots of natural light. Ample front porch to enjoy and be sheltered from the elements. We had some rain and were still able to have morning coffee and evening meals out of doors.
Easy access to the Great Allegheny Passage bike trail at the Rockwood trailhead. Also quite close to Kooser and Laurel Mountain state parks.
Moo Echo Dairy market is close by; general store with yummy homemade ice cream.
My husband and I really enjoyed the cabin and nearby outdoor activities (hiking and kayaking). A wonderful host and amenities. It was a great location to meet our adult children who live in Pittsburgh and Columbus, OH. I'm sure the location/neighborhood is better for winter activities. We'd definitely consider coming back if we rented both houses owned by the host.
I decided to get out of the NC heat and decided to spend 3 weeks in PAâs Laurel Highlands. The decision was a good one given the access to a wide variety of outdoor activities. As a base of operation I wanted a place that was quaint, rustic, and slightly off the beaten path with modern conveniences and connectivity. Mountain Grove checked all the boxes. The kitchen was well equipped and the internet was excellent. It would be a great place to work remotely
Then there is Lisa, the owner/host. I have stayed at VRBOs all over the country and have never had a host as conscientious, responsive or as pleasant. Sheâs a gem.
Obviously I highly recommend the Highlands and I couldnât be more superlative about Mountain Grove
Overall we enjoyed our stay at Mountain Grove. The location was great in that we did not have to drive very far with three small kids in the car to get to activities or restaurants nearby. The kids also LOVED the "tree house" and spent a lot of time playing up there. The cabin was very clean and comfortable, which we appreciated. Some things we would have liked to know prior to booking were: the proximity to other cabins - this is more of a small development type setting and there are a few cabins very close by. Also, the grill is a grate over a fire pit. Enough firewood is provided for one use and after that you will need to purchase other wood nearby. Lastly, the road turning into and out of the development is very bumpy and if you have a car (and not a truck or SUV) you may scrape the bottom of your vehicle on the roadway due to the big dip in the road.
The house was clean and as expected. The kids loved the loft treehouse inside. Dog friendly is a huge plus. A few minutes from kooser state and a few more from Laurel hill park. Great location. Lisa was great and easy to communicate with. We loved the fire pit and the big classic Laurel highland rocks in the landscape.
We loved our stay at Mountain Grove. The kids loved the "tree house" and we all enjoyed using the fire pit in the evenings. Everything was clean and the house had everything we needed. We'd definitely consider renting here in the future.
This location was great. We easily traveled to Ohiopyle, Laurel Caverns and the 9/11 memorial, but were off the beaten path. The house was wonderful. My 11 y/o son only left the treehouse for meals and if we were leaving the house. Such a cute little space for the kids. The house had room to spread out, and a nice living room to pile up in for a movie. Host is wonderful. Very quick to respond to questions. We followed some of her recommendations and fell in love with the store (Moo Echo) and restaurant (Bradyâs) she recommended. Great stay. We were comfortable and had lots of fun. Thanks, Lisa!
We stayed at Lisaâs cabin for a guys golf weekend. She was communicative, informative, and very helpful! The cabin itself was awesome! Very nice spot and we loved the fire pit! Would recommend to anyone looking to come to Somerset.
