About this property

Riverfront retreat , kayak shuttle services

For the adventurous spirit, our river front cottage is nestled on the banks of the Allegheny River-- perfect local area for boating, floating, fishing and hunting. You will love to just sit back and watch the river roll by.
At the cottage, we offer more than just a vacation getaway. We offer the opportunity for guests to immerse themselves in nature's wonders -- to wake to the sound of songbirds, watch the eagles fly and end the day with the pop and crackle of a campfire, to breathe in fresh mountain air and hunt or fish in the Allegheny National Forest. Our Riverfront Retreat is an escape from the ordinary.
** this property is not secluded. It is a 2 acre lot with year round neighbors and no river access for boating or swimming. However, we have a shuttle service that will pick you and your kayaks up at the cottage drop you at a launch and return you back to the cottage. The service also offers rentals.

Relaxing getaway

We loved our stay at the Riverfront Retreat. The cottage had everything you could need. There were plenty of Kcups and firewood which was great. We used both outdoor fireplaces. Beautiful deck down by the river. The nights were very cold while we were there though the inside was plenty warm. We would recommend this place.

Perfect place to relax for the weekend

Such a cute little place to stay and relax by the river! We stayed for Labor Day weekend, kayaked and just relaxed on the property. Cooking on a fire by the river and relaxing on the deck overlooking river was just what we needed to relax and unwind. The only bad thing is we had to leave and go back to reality.. will definitely book this gem again soon.

THE BEST place to stay!!!

Clean, well stocked with ALL the essentials, on the river, and quiet!! There is a new covered patio down at the water's edge. Surprisingly, there were no bugs....just hummingbirds and butterflies! Not far from kayaking and hiking!!! We love it here!!!

***Absolutely Amazing Cabin!!!!!***

My husband had a nice getaway at this lovely cabin. The owner was beyond wonderful. The cabin was spotless and very well decorated. It was as cozy as can be. We really enjoyed the back deck with the chiminea. It was perfect for fall evenings. I highly recommend this place, and we will definitely be back!!

Cozy cabin

Cute, cozy cabin. Beautifully decorated and well-appointed. Location was easy to find and had a lovely deck and backyard. We enjoyed the indoor fireplace in the evenings. Only downsides were there were not fresh linens on the beds when we arrived and neither bed was very comfortable.

Nice little cabin in a beautiful location

Nice little cabin in a beautiful location.Well stocked and cared for, it’s obvious the owners are continually investing and updating different parts of the property. Though it rained just about everyday, we were able to use the two outdoor decks. We enjoyed fires on the deck off the house on chilly evenings. And loved sitting on the new river front deck at the end of the day. Lots of birds, turtles and other wildlife to look for. We were able to travel to a number of different locations around the county and national forest easily from the cabin. Definitely would recommend making this your home away from home if you are visiting Warren County!

About the host

Hosted by Gretta Beck

Host profile image
We enjoy the cold Steeler season that Pittsburgh, Pa. has to offer but after the season is over we cant wait to take some time off and escape to the riverbanks of the Allegheny. Tidioute offers the best of both worlds. Relaxed river front living which include fishing and hunting on the nearby state game lands. Plus a great place to have family and friends over for a summers day full of fun!!

Why they chose this property

We purchased this property mainly based on location: only a mile down the road from State Game lands, water front and Tidioute's quiet small town atmosphere.

What makes this property unique

The home sleeps 4 comfortably. We enjoy setting up down by the river for bon fires, cooking out and listening to the frogs at night. We love to see the turtles sun themselves in the morning on the bank and if you are lucky enough to see baby turtles hatch from their nests buried in the yard.
