We are from the West Coast (SF Bay Area) and flew out to help our freshman move into college. We were looking for a home close to campus, in a peaceful and beautiful setting, that was spacious, had great amenities and that had charm. We found it! We can not emphasize enough how wonderful this house is and how great the owners are at communication. The house was extremely clean, the beds and pillows very comfortable, the water pressure and HVAC system perfect-there's not one area of improvement we would suggest. Beyond that, all the detailed touches throughout the home were fantastic! As one whose background is in architecture and specifically historic preservation, I personally loved this home and look forward to returning in the coming years. Thank you, Chad and Lane for a most wonderful stay!

Very nice house to say the least. Clean, very large, impressive throughout. Excellent and proactive communication. The location is more central than I realized and great for walking through Squirrel Hill, Schenley Park, and Oakland if you’re up for some steps or quick drives. I really enjoyed my stay. Ideal spot for a family or two - tons of room and definitely a good value from that perspective. I found nice wooded trails deep in the park, explored Squirrel Hill (look up the tiki restaurant!), and walked through familiar university stomping grounds. And played the piano in the house. Those were all fun side quests that came out of staying here while visiting family. Excellent experience

We rented Chad’s place for a work trip to Pittsburgh and really enjoyed it. Most everything was as described in the listing. It was in a nice neighborhood and accommodated our large group easily. It even included an easy process for requesting street permits for the several additional cars that wouldn’t fit in the garage.<br/>Overall, our stay was pleasant and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the property to anyone visiting the Pittsburgh area.

Overall it was great stay! It is pretty well kept house that is very old, superb cleaning but still the entire house will be squeaky since it is very old. Garage is tiny so none of the modern cars will fit in it unless it is a tiny economy car, but street parking worked fine for us. Rooms were clean and beds were comfortable. Particularly all bathrooms were renovated and good.
