We found out after that there's also more casual seating downstairs. There were lots of Lenten specials, and we enjoyed trying the various appetizers. I really liked the general tso cauliflower, it had great flavor and was a really generous portion! My only feedback is regarding the loaded tots. We ordered the pulled pork on the side since I'm vegetarian, and while it came on the side, the kitchen added ground beef into the mix even though that wasn't even in the list of toppings. Very confusing and disappointing since I discovered it after we had all dug in.

One of the more enjoyable places we've stayed recently is this single-cabin lodge near Windber,…read morePennsylvania, up in the Alleghenies. The owner, Ken Davis, has deep roots in the area and is very knowledgeable of its history and geography. The cabin is well-appointed and comfortable, and very private. It sits at the foot of many acres of private hiking trails where you will see deer and other wildlife. The two-room cabin can comfortably sleep 4 and includes a fully appointed kitchen. There were lots of goodies in the fridge, a bottle of wine, lovely blueberry cookies, and we felt immediately at home. And it's quite a reasonable price for what you get. My wife and I stayed 5 nights so the multi-night discount made it very worthwhile. The only thing that would have improved the experience (for me, since I'm an internet guy) would be wireless connectivity. There was a phone but only local calls permitted there. We will definitely be back!

5-Star Review: Absolute Summer Paradise in the Laurel Highlands!…read more This rental is the perfect home base for an unforgettable summer getaway in the Laurel Highlands. We've stayed here countless times and feel like we've discovered a secret summer playground for our multi-generational family. The location is unbeatable, with a nature preserve literally right behind the property offering peaceful hiking with two trail heads flanking the property by a mile or so. Mornings spent wandering through the woods with birds chirping and fresh mountain air were pure magic. The area is packed with amazing attractions just a short drive away. You can't miss the Frank Lloyd Wright homes--Fallingwater, Kentuck Knob, and the stunning houses at Polymath Park, all architectural masterpieces nestled in the beautiful countryside. Touring them felt like stepping into history and nature blended perfectly. For outdoor fun, we like to visit nearby Ohiopyle State Park for incredible hiking, waterfalls, rafting on the Youghiogheny River, and scenic trails that make every day an adventure. It's a summer paradise for bikers, hikers, and nature photographers. We loved visiting the local zoo/wildlife spots for family-friendly animal encounters, and Seven Springs Mountain Resort is just minutes away with exciting events all summer long--concerts, festivals, and more. After a day out adventuring we enjoyed taking care of ourselves at the luxurious Trillium Spa for massages, facials, and total relaxation in a serene mountain setting. It's the ultimate treat! Dining is fantastic too. Helen's at Seven Springs delivered an upscale, memorable meal with rustic charm. Treetops at Polymath park with their private treehouses was the most memorable dining experience we've had. Out of the Fire restaurant is our family's favorite, with American fare, and a mushroom soup that is notorious, you can even grab some to go. And this rental puts you in the heart of it all. The property itself is comfortable and well-equipped, and is cozy yet expansive, space for everyone to come together or spend time in solitude. It was a joy to come home, grill out, and unwind after full days of exploration. We loved cooking up big meals and enjoying them together adjacent the fireplace. The pancake mix and local maple syrup left as a gift from Candi was such a thoughtful gesture, we made a special trip to Duck Farms, nearby, to see how they make their syrup first hand. We can't recommend this cabin enough--book your summer stay now and get ready for the best family or friends trip ever. This is Pennsylvania summer at its finest! Highly recommended--five stars all the way!

The later 2 were relocated here and situated by the Wright Association. The former 2 were designed for the specific site. Currently a Frank Lloyd Wright, Jr (Lloyd Wright) is being added to Polymath Park. Bear in mind that the whole Park is 130 acres and to tour the houses is by van. When you're at one house, you can't see the other houses. A restaurant is on site by the visitor center. If you are going to Fallingwater, it is worth the time to add Polymath Park to your itinerary.

I can't say I would necessarily recommend the house tours, but it can be a unique experience to…read morestay in one of the houses and definitely check out the Tree Tops restaurant which is world class (do the private Tree House dining experience if you can). We stayed in the FLW Mantyla house for one night and it was unfortunately a HOT weekend so it was about 85 degrees in the house and we had some issues with the lights not turning off at night in one of the bedrooms. Of course FLW houses don't have built-in A/C and often have "unique" aspects so none of this is entirely unexpected but just be aware in the summer. In the morning though, we saw a beautiful deer and her fawn outside the patio which is not uncommon at most FLW houses we've stayed at but still amazing to see through the huge windows of a Usonian house. I would never stay more than one night at the houses given that you need to be out while they're doing tours during the day but it's worth a one night stay if you're visiting Falling Water and definitely dine at the Tree Tops restaurant. I'd say 3.5 stars overall and I would consider staying again just to eat at the restaurant and not have to drive far afterward. :)

Make the Alpine Retreat your Destination at Seven Springs…read more ....use the resort for skiing and save the $$$$. Location. You can walk to Seven Springs Mountain Resort from Alpine Retreat. Parking is easy in and easy out, I recommend in heavy winter and tough seasons to contact the host to make sure all roadways are safe if you don't have 4 wheel drive. Alpine Retreat. A home more comfortable than home. It is warm and cozy and inviting. The two fireplaces are fully stocked with wood, the fridge is stocked with all necessities and extra beverages and food (in case you lack preparation... such as I). Also everything is labeled so you don't have to search to find anything in the kitchen or throughout the house. There is firewood well stocked, with an outdoor firepit for cooking and relaxing. Underneath an outdoor deck that can host a large group, with a grill and bar, sits a six-person jacuzzi with bluetooth connection. There is ample land to enjoy lawn games and a good game of catch. Lastly, there is a basement cove with a bar that would make for a good night cap after the hot tub cover goes back on. Our Experience. Our host picked us up some craft Sam Adams beer and made us dinner. I don't want to promise that this exception is made for all the guests, but I have never been better received by a host in any hotel or inn I have ever stayed. We had a massage therapist come for a traveling massage from Body in Balance Healing Center. $100 for an hour (excluding gratuity) was so much cheaper and personalized than the overpriced spa at Seven Springs. I slept like a rock, but I did bike (not very well) quite a distance before my stay. The sheets were fresh and clean and everything was spotless in the house. We were encouraged to eat the food, use the washer/dryer and put our feet up... which we did so well. Overall. Buy the ticket, take the ride. You won't have a better host, I would lay money on that. The house is cozy and inviting and I will be heading back there at the next opportunity. Thanks again!
