Pittsburgh Glamping on the no-wake Beaver River

The best part of these Custom Floating Cottages is, without a doubt, the location. Nestled along scenic Beaver Road in Beaver County, within the peaceful and friendly River Harbour Marina, this is truly “Peaceful Life on the Water.” Our cottages are less than 30 minutes from Pittsburgh International Airport, and less than an hour from downtown Pittsburgh.

But there’s so much more to love...

Each cottage is thoughtfully designed for comfort and style, featuring:

A cozy, furnished living room with a pull-out sofa sleeper and armchair

A color-changing heated fireplace – perfect for relaxing evenings

A full eat-in kitchen with full-sized appliances – ideal for cooking and dining together

A private master bedroom with a double bed, built-in dressers, and nightstands

A spacious open loft – perfect for toddlers or extra storage

Built on an engineered floating base with composite decking and PVC skirting, these cottages offer long-lasting durability and low maintenance, so you can focus on enjoying life on the water

Outdoor space options are available too – ideal for entertaining, lounging, or simply soaking in the view

Our cottages can comfortably accommodate two adult guests, but additional arrangements may be made upon request: two children can stay in the upstairs loft, and the sofa sleeper contains a queen-sized mattress.
There's a private patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a Smart television is provided for your entertainment. The bathroom has a shower.Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.

Wow! What a relaxing river retreat!

We needed a place to stay while visiting a loved one that was in the hospital. Little did we know how perfect these little gems would be! Patricia was a great host! The cottages at the river harbor were very clean and had everything we needed. Not to mention that they are located right on the river! Amazing! There are several places to eat within walking distance and a grocery store just a short drive away. Do yourself a favor and book now!
