This rental was great and i will definitely be back. Dean was very helpful and responsive. The property is much better than the pictures lead you to believe. The stream is just steps from the back door and there is a second floor balcony that i was not expecting. I saw no other humans during my whole stay (this was a goal) but i did see lots of deer and turkeys. As a bonus there are 2 trees right near the fire pit that were perfect for a hammock!

Stayed July '23 for our Anniversary weekend. Loved the cabin. Would stay again! Hubby was a little concerned about no AC, but we opened a couple windows and were plenty cool enough.

Peaceful Getaway

The cabin is an absolutely wonderful place to unwind and escape daily stressors. It is clean and comfortable. Mr. Hay is a great host and provided some fun ideas for us to do while we were there. We plan to do this every year.

Private Getaway

We loved staying here for a long weekend. Great location. Had all the essentials (even for cooking) in a cozy space. Perfect for two people! Relaxing and gorgeous views and sounds to get back to nature in the Laurel Highlands region.

Peaceful

If you want to relax and unplug from the craziness of your work schedule or daily life, this is the place to go!! We had a wonderful time enjoying the peacefulness and beauty around us. This place is a short drive to OhioPyle and Fallingwaters. We enjoyed both and hit up some wineries too. Great place!

Dirt road to get to the cabin was well maintained with no issues to worry about. The cabin is secluded which created a peaceful atmosphere for us to finish our vacation and rest for our last leg home. We would definitely stay here again if the opportunity arose

Sustainability in the woods!

Location was secluded and beautiful. The cabin was cozy and perfectly situated from major attractions without feeling crowded. Lovely property and very friendly owner showed us all of the "off the grid" features of the cabin! Would definitely recommend to others looking for a quiet time in the woods.

We had such a lovely stay at Rusty Perch. We totally loved that it is off-the-grid and you’d never know it. All the comforts of home. Well stocked, clean and cozy. Outdoor seating on the deck by the stream was a delight. Dean was responsive, kind and friendly. We can’t wait to stay here again!

Perfect Getaway Location

We loved this place. Its secluded, beautiful location is exactly as advertised. The house itself is perfect for two people - clean, comfortable, with a complete kitchen if you want to cook. The off grid system is an interesting concept if you’re curious about the idea. If not, you’ll never know it’s not on grid.

Peaceful Cabin in the Woods

This cabin is the perfect place to escape the craziness of life. There is complete privacy with only the sights and sounds of nature. The cabin is immaculate, well maintained, and had everything we needed. It's an extra bonus that it is environmentally conscious. We enjoyed exploring Confluence, Ohiopyle and Mount Davis. Often times we had the trails/ roads to ourselves.

Kim and Steve's stay

This was an absolute wonderful getaway. The cabin was perfect. It was clean and well stocked. The bed was comfortable. Best part was the fire ring by the stream and listening to the water all night in bed. We had a storm but enjoyed watching it from the balcony. Can not wait to go back! Highly recommend if you need to get away and be stress free! Oh and the view from every window...fabulous!

Secluded

There has been a bad drought in Southwest Pennsylvania. The creek was not running full. We received several days of rain while we were there; so we were then able to hear the creek the last few days that we were there. The owner was very friendly.
