Very nice chalet in a lovely setting on the river.

Visited Fallingwater and stayed in the chalet for a single night. Unit was in very nice shape. Great setting on the river. Only negative was the nearby train tracks as the train did run a few times in the night. There was great communication from the host and we had a great stay.

We had a great stay! The house was perfect for a few people to stay, and was so nice to be so close to the river. Robin and Dan were very helpful with any questions we had about the property and the area.

Paddler's Lane Seclusion

The Chalet was in immaculate condition upon our arrival and the pictures were very accurate. The setting was very private and the sound of the river flowing so close was very relaxing. Robin provided excellent directions to Fallingwater and advice for dining options. The River's Edge Cafe was superb and visiting Fallingwater was very worthwhile. Our visit was very relaxing and enjoyable.

20/10 recommend!!!

Literally THE cutest little home!!! It’s perfectly sized for two couples. The kitchen was well stocked as far as cooking utensils, pots and pans. We really appreciated the games and movies that were in the cabinet. I know some people mentioned the railway being loud but we found it to be soothing. The host leaving earplugs for those who are sensitive to sound is such a sweet gesture. I will say that the showers are a little snug for bigger folks but the water pressure is terrific. The host was also so responsive!! They quickly answered all of my pestering questions via text and it was greatly appreciated. Highly recommend this spot for a cute weekend getaway or a ski trip to Seven Springs.

Enjoyed our stay

We had a great time during our stay at Robin's chalet. The property worked great for the adults and children in our group. The kids loved the river behind the chalet and they enjoyed seeing the trains. The trains didn't really bother anyone in our group. We hope to visit again next year.

Gentle Stream Fishing Adventure for Kids

Idyllic chalet with beautiful gentle river just out the back door and through the forest path. Dappled light coming through the trees. Easy summer breezes. Chipmunks aplenty. Firepit perfect for evening chats. Boys loved their first adventure casting from the rocks in “The Yak”.

Peaceful

My husband and I went up here to enjoy some times to ourselves and it was so worth it. The view and sound of the river was phenomenal. Although the trains drive passed a lot, there is something soothing about them. We will definitely be going back.

The chalet is so cozy! The fireplace is great. The location is perfect for visiting Ohiopyle or Confluence or Fallingwater etc. And the property itself is very beautiful (we arrived to 4 inches of new snow)! Would love to come back in the summer or fall.

Great Three Day Getaway

Arrived for a short get away and found this place to be a nice retreat away from everyday life. It was just the perfect size for the two of us and we sat on the porch watching and listening to the river. When we arrived it was clean and very well organized with about everything you would need. Hated to leave.

Amazing location

This was one of the best stays I’ve ever had through vrbo or any other service. It was as advertised and even better. From the comfort and cleanliness of the chalet to the wraparound deck, fire pit to the river right outside the door. I will definitely be back many times. Thank you to Robin for having us and sharing this property.

About the host

Hosted by Robin Morris

Host profile image
I am a full time potter and an avid outdoor enthusiast. Besides whitewater kayaking and skiing I love to bicycle and have traveled by bike across Australia, New Zealand, England, Tasmania, Ireland, Scottland, Wales, the Isle of Mann, the Natchez Trace and the Northeastern US. I also love to hike and dream of someday getting the time to Hike the entire Appliachian Trail as a thru-hiker

Why they chose this property

The Laurel Highlands of Pennsylvania is an outdoor mecca. It boasts the best whitewater kayaking and rafting in the Eastern US, has the longest rails to trail bicycle trail in the states and an amazing array of hiking and mountain biking trails. We are surrounded by 4 State parks and our seven winter rec/ski resorts keep us active for the winter season. Being adjacent to Ohiopyle state park we have a front row seat to all of these things. We are secluded but close enough to the small towns of Confluence and Ohiopyle that anything we need can be easily obtained. In addition, we are located close to Fallingwater and Kentuck Knob and these along with the other cultural attractions available just an hour and a half away in Pittsburgh we feel we have the best of all worlds

What makes this property unique

We are riverside and this gorgeous Chalet has a large stone fireplace (two stories high!) cathedral all Cypress ceiling, expansive decking, outdoor fire pits, large yard and beautiful landscaping. It is a true dream property.
