The location was perfect for our family weekend. My granddaughters loved hiking at Laurel Hill State Park and swimming at the beach. The cabin was excellent, clean, comfortable inviting spacious. The wrap around deck was great the fire pit one of the best that I have enjoyed. We definitely recommend and we’re definitely book again.

Very comfortable cabin in a beautiful area!

We loved the cabin the minute we stepped inside. It was so warm and cozy with just the right amount of space for our family of 5. We were able to cook a full Thanksgiving dinner in the well-equiped kitchen and then take a beautiful hike around the state park. Thanks for allowing us to create some great memories!

Great Comfortable Cabin

We enjoyed our time at the cabin. It was clean, well stocked, and comfortable. Only 5 minutes from Hidden Valley and 20 minutes from Seven Springs. The air hockey table was a great touch. I highly recommend a 4WD if visiting and snow is expected.

Quiet hidden cabin

This was a great place to stay! We went to the area for Seven Springs resort, but didn't want to stay there (too busy, too expensive, etc...). This cabin was a 20 minute drove down a beautiful snow covered up, down, and around winding road. The cabin was at the end of a short street of only about 5 houses. It was quite and peaceful and very serene in the back looking out into the woods/creek. I spent my time in the window seat with a book while the family was snowboarding. The cabin was very comfortable and had everything we needed and the owners communication was great! Highly recommend!

Cozy Mountain Retreat

Our stay at this charming cottage was absolutely wonderful! The home was spotless, beautifully maintained, and featured an incredible stone fireplace that made for cozy evenings. With its stunning cliffside location, peaceful trails, and close proximity to Hidden Valley and Kooser State Park, this is the perfect getaway for relaxation and outdoor fun.

Perfect Cottage

Great winter jaunt. This clean, comfortable property exceeded my expectations. The bathroom now features a modern walk-n shower with a great shower panel with multiple jets. The furnishings have been updated as well. This was a great stay. Owner was a gem as is his property.

Family Weekend with Grands

Nice visit, cozy in-the-woods feel for a weekend visit with our daughter and her family. Only wish, that there had been a shower in the half-bath. Would love to return at some point.

Gorgeous cottage

Tastefully decorated with new appliances, comfortable beds, great surrounding yard and lots to do in the area. Most of the rooms had their own air conditioning/heating units. Fancy shower. The cottage is near a stream which is down a steep hill, preventing anyone to get to it. Plus I didn’t check the map carefully - the cottage is 75 yards from a highway - you can hear traffic noises. We dislike the air hockey table.

Great Spot

Spent the weekend here in early February. Had been hoping for ski weather but instead we had a beautiful sunny weekend and early spring. Cool location next to Kooser Run and Kooser State Park- walkable. Cabin is cozy and comfortable and would be nice in all seasons.

Cozy, inviting, surrounded by nature

Had everything we needed for our family's quick ski trip and Dave was excellent to communicate with. Wishing we could have utilized more of the outdoor space. We hope to come back again to ski and again in another season. Really beautiful area and we loved the historic aspect of the cottage. Very tasteful! cottage.

Mini vacation

The cottage was beautiful, very clean and accessible. We had windiws and ceiling fans on and it was better than air conditioning. Besides hearing the stream below, it was very quiet and serene. Would highly recommend to anyone who just wants to get away and relax. Planning on returning next year!!!!!

Family Weekend Getaway

Property was in a nice location, central to local amenities. We enjoyed staying at the property and all it had to offer, it was well suited for our needs. It could use a little updating, furniture/carpeted areas but beds were good and house was clean. David is a great host, easily accessable if needed and offer's good suggestions for things to do. Overall we had an awesome family bonding weekend!

Nice location

We live in NJ, it took us 4 1/2 hours and through 4 tunnels on the PA Turnpike. The house was quaint and cozy. Location was 30 minutes to Flight 93 memorial. Kooser state Park right down the road. Laurel Highlands State Park which I recommend is beautiful is 10 minutes from the house. Sitting outside the house on the wrap around deck, you can hear the roaring stream down below, somewhat drowns the traffic noise. The house is off of Glades Pike Road.. We had a fire one nite. Nice Adirondack Chairs with cup holder and wine glass holder. Internet worked great for us. The beds were comfortable. Tv has alot of networks, hard to find local news, but plenty of channels to go through. Our jack russells loved it there too.

Family getaway in Somerset County

Very much enjoyed our stay at Rockcliff Cottage, which is a really cool place and perfect setting. Neat, clean, rustic and nice outdoor area. Close to many state parks where we did plenty of hiking and trail running, including parts of the Laurel Highlands Hiking Trail. Owner David offered many great tips for things to do and see in the area. The noise from all the trucks going up and down nearby main road (Route 31) was a bit disappointing, but quickly got over it, as everything else about the property was terrific. Would definitely return to stay again and experience the Laurel Highlands in Fall/Winter seasons as well.

A truly beautiful setting, Lots nearby

We went in the summer and explored the countryside. First, the house itself is beautiful, set amongst many blooming laurels and beautiful hostas, amazing landscaping. We started quite a few outdoor adventures right from the house walking around Kooser, plenty of fun things to do nearby with trips down to Ohiopyle and Linn Run to go on natural waterslides, hikes through nearby Roaring Run. A great lauching pad for outdoor adventures in south central PA. The house was stocked with detergent for the dishwasher and other little amenities like that that some places lack. Loads of firewood and a great outdoor seating area. Host was incredibly responsive and polite, with a great guide to the area. My only complaint would be the moldy smells from living room and front porch room. The cabin itself looked very clean but even with lots of windows and a fan running still bothered some in my party a bit. The kids didn't mind at all and spent quite a few hours playing air hockey out on the four seasons porch despite it. Not enough to stop me from going back but some might be more bothered than others which is why I mention it.
