Our family of 5 had a wonderful vacation in Pittsburgh. This home had plenty of space for all of us and the back patio and landscaping were just beautiful. The kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked with everything we needed. The property owner was so easy to communicate with and helpful with suggestions.

Wonderful stay in Pittsburgh

The house was very nice and very clean you can tell the owners really care about the house and the property. The only draw back was the beds were a bit too hard.

Very well stocked place!

Was a great vrbo. Everything as advertised. Close to city. Well stocked with coffee pastries (thanks for those!), drinks, linens. We could have used another bed or blow up mattress but one of the kids slept on the couch. Host was great. And weather was spectacular! Great weekend to enjoy the beautiful back yard.

Great place to stay in Pittsburgh

This property was awesome! Within 15 minutes of everything in Pittsburgh but located in a quiet neighborhood so you didn't feel like you were in the city. Very inviting and comfortable place to stay - the welcome bag was a very nice surprise. The owner was very responsive to any questions we have.

Worth recommending

This place is like being home away from home. I love Iive indoor plants. And this house has them, well taken care of too. This home is homey and very clean. It’s not for people with knee problem though because of the numerous stairs. We’re just glad there’s railings. Thank you Mary Lou for the wonderful accommodations.

Wonderful Pittsburgh

We had an amazing week in Pittsburgh. The house was beautiful and spacious for us 5 adults. We played games and ate in the dining room and watched the Pirates on the large TV while the girls watched movies downstairs. We were convenient to the city and the South Hills where I grew up. Thank you so much for the wonderful week.

About the host

Hosted by Mary Lou Borchert

Host profile image
For over 32 wonderful years, I lived in Fortaleza in the State of Ceara, Brazil. While there, over fifteen years were spent as a restaurant entrepreneur togrther with a business partner. We owned two restaurants: Cafe Matisse and Le Pot. Portuguese is my second language. Now fast forward...for about 18 years, I worked as a real estate agent & am now retired. Hobbies include: cooking, E-biking with my hubby, international travel, cruising, visiting our grown "kids" & now...camping & exploring new adventures in our Black Series HQ21 rig! There's never a dull moment!!
LIVE & LOVE YOUR LIFE! ❣️

Why they chose this property

This is our own Home Sweet Home! Our neighborhood is great! We benefit from taking walks or getting a bite down on the boulevard at one of the eateries.
My husband is retired too. We always talked about taking opportunities to see places on our bucket list. Thus, we decided to open our home for guests to enjoy, make memories & explore the "Burgh!" We love our space and there's still some things we'd like to do. We anticipate that our guests will be respectful & tidy. One of our favorite pastimes is enjoying coffee, meals or a glass of wine on our flagstone patio. You'll see different birds & new flowers debut each day! The larger bird houses usually have "renters", AKA: little Wrens that return to build nests & raise their young.
The whimsical painted artifacts throughout the garden were painted by my husband, Jerry. He spent years developing the garden and enjoys getting his hands dirty! Homemade simple syrup (1 C white sugar to 4 C water), is used for the hummingbird feeders! The propane grill has some years on it but still does a lovely job grilling steaks to burgers, pizza or sauteed veggies. Take a walk to Moore's Park where you'll find tennis, basketball & pickleball courts, a renovated public pool & sprinklers for the kiddos. The bus stop for the Port Authority Public Transportation is located only about 50 steps from the house. Brookline Boulevard offers: CVS Pharmacy, nail salon, bakeries, men's hair salon, gas station, 1st Community Bank, Post Oak Cafe, Carnegie Public Library, Pitaland where you can savor a delicious Gyro, Baklava, etc as well as other eateries & shops. Take a walk down to the Boulevard. Gotta love it!

What makes this property unique

First off, this is our actual home! It's location is in the southern part, away from the hustle & bustle of larger neighborhoods,
with a small town feel. In only minutes, you can arrive at Mt. Washington to check out the overlook with amazing views, walk down Shilo Street, move on to downtown Pittsburgh, take in a game in one of the stadiums, museums, eateries & so much more.
