The home was perfect. Picture perfect view out the dining room off the patio of a babbling brook, which was so nice to listen too. Very clean, beautiful decorating, comfortable beds, lots of room, and everything you need to home cook meals. The location was great, a short scenic ride to Laural Mountain if you are staying there to ski.
I stayed for a weekend with friends (middle-aged women), and we were all in love with this charming, beautifully decorated, thoughtfully appointed, and comfortable house. Great location - easy to find and close to the town center. Nice spaces to sit outside for coffee in the morning or drinks in the evening around a fire to enjoy the sounds of the creek. Inside spaces are exactly as pictured, and the house lacks for nothing - plenty of kitchen supplies, towels, games, books, and even a diffuser with the blow dryer, which was much appreciated by those of us with curls :). Comfortable beds, too. Communication with the hosts was excellent. I would not hesitate to stay here again.
We couldn’t ask for a better location for a holiday family get together. The Finch House did not disappoint. This house was so beautifully decorated and so very clean. The private location along the creek was so beautiful and peaceful. John was a great host and was available for any questions. My family was so sad to leave. We cannot wait to go back again!!The McCracken family
This is a beautiful home that is well stocked with everything you could need. Our son got married this weekend and it was a great place to get ready and also relax before the big day.
We spent 3 nights at this beautifully remodeled house. It was easy to find and was exactly as the VRBO ad said. Lots of space for everyone, it was clean, games for the kids, lots of room for entertaining. We will be back. Thankyou for making our trip a 5 Star trip and we can't wait to go back.
We had a wonderful time at John and Kathleen's home. The house was comfortable with lots of seating, plenty of kitchen equipment, a great layout and lots of natural light. Our favorite part was the outdoor space and the covered seating looking out over the creek. The location was an easy drive into town. Overall I would recommend this home for a relaxing family getaway.
As always the Finch House was an amazing stay! From the open floor plan that provides ample space for our family to spread out and relax, to the comfortable beds, to the large dining table that allowed us to enjoy a meal together Finch House has it all. The weather was perfect so using the grill and having a fire outside by the babbling creek also added to the perfect fall getaway! Thank you for being great hosts and sharing your wonderful property!
We needed a weekend away and this place was the perfect spot. The house was clean and beautiful, stocked with everything you could need. We truly enjoyed our stay.
We stayed here for a relaxing bachelorette weekend away from everything. The backyard was gorgeous and we had so much fun on the creek, having campfires, and enjoying the outdoor patio. There were plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms where we did not have any issues. Highly recommend.
The pictures for this house are great but it’s even better in person! It’s so awesome to be right by the creek! The owners are great and very communicative. We felt very welcomed. I would recommend this place highly to anyone!
This was the perfect family getaway for us. The home, the furnishings and amenities added to our relaxation and enjoyment. We will be sure to return in the future!! thank you John and Kathleen for a wonderful restful and peaceful weekend.
2nd stay - winter and summer. Beautiful house inside and out. Chic decor in every room, well stocked kitchen and peaceful stream and gliders. Already looking ahead to book in Fall.
Beautiful home with awesome outdoor areas to relax or visit with loved ones. Our children loved the bunk beds and all the little touches that made them feel like they had their very own area. The house is very very well equipped and spacious but comfortable. Will definitely stay here again the the future.
This house is perfectly built and decorated. We enjoyed every moment relaxing by the creek or playing board games inside. The communication with the owner was so stellar and appreciated! This is by far the best rental on VRBO
Our family loved your place! We rested, relaxed, caught fish, played in the creek, played games and had so much fun! Your home is a gem
And we will definitely recommend to others!!! Thank you so much for having such a wonderful home!
Three couples have been traveling together for over 40 years this cabin / house ranks as the best we ever had for a good price ! It has it all there is nothing I can name that it is lacking and has a great host that responds quickly to any questions or problems his only fault is he is not an Ohio state fan .
This home exceeded all of our expectations. It was impeccably clean with beautiful furnishings with a well stocked kitchen. The serene creek in the backyard adds to the tranquil setting. The convenience of being close to downtown Ligonier and Idlewild Park was a bonus. They also had a wide variety of games and toys available for bad weather days. I highly recommend this home for a relaxing and memorable getaway.
We had a friends reunion of 6 adults at this house and couldn't have loved it more! The home is immaculate and has so many cute features and design items. The beds were comfortable. We used both the indoor and outdoor fireplaces...and we sat and chatted even in the rain under the covered porch. Thank you!

About the host
Hosted by John & Kathleen
We've been married over 26 years and have two boys. The more time we spend in Ligonier and the Laurel Highlands, the more we can't wait to return. Our hope is to retire to this home someday and enjoy all of the areas beauty more fully. Until then, our hope is that you will share in the blessing, rest, and enjoyment The Finch House has to offer.
Why they chose this property
This has been a labor of love. From the ground up, we have designed and built this home with you in mind. We've attempted to address every detail and concern, making sure your stay is as comfortable as possible.
What makes this property unique
Conveniently located just minutes from historic Ligonier and the surrounding Laurel Highlands, the home blends beautifully with the surrounding mountain laurels and pines. Serenity awaits at the end of a dead end street on 110' of clear, mountain fed, Mill Creek where even in the dead of winter you'll be tempted to leave the windows open just to hear the babbling water roll by.
