Cozy warm house in a safe neighborhood. Perfect for exploring the Pittsburgh area. The owner was amazing and very thoughtful - even had a high chair and pack and play at the house for our use! It was clean, well equipped kitchen and plenty of TVs for everyone to enjoy. It was perfect for our family! Thank you!

This home was very welcoming and comfortable. The beds and pillows were superb. Best night's sleep! Kitchen was fully stocked and the welcome sign and goodie basket were a lovely touch! Water pressure in the shower was outstanding!

The host Shelly went out the way to help us with my grandson’s birthday. Loved the neighborhood and the close to every thing feel. Traffic was ok to boot. We felt right at home. Would stay here again.

It was a pleasure to stay here. Worked great for my parents and my husband and me. Only a short 20 minutes drive to downtown. Host was quick to respond to messages.

Throughout our stay, when required, Shelly communicated in a timely and coherent manner. The home was clean and the neighborhood was quiet, safe and family oriented. Downtown Pittsburgh is very accessible from this location and all necessary amenities can be found in either Verona or Oakmont (giant eagle, coffee shops, nice restaurants, etc). If we return to this area, we would certainly look into renting Shelly’s vrbo again! :)

If we could give it 6 stars we would!

Wonderful christmas stay in a lovely cozy home! We just planned on renting a home for a night in pittsburgh for our holiday trip but we got ao much more than that! Nestled in a quiet neighborhood just outside of the busy city this place has the perfect location for being 20 minutes to all the attractions. Off street parking made unloadiing and loading a breeze. The home itself is smaller but it doesnt feel that way! Such a good use of space with a nice litlle kitchen that has all your needs! Decent sized livingroom with a dining table off the kitchen. The bedrooms are perfect for out family of 5 we all fit comfortably and a plus the upstairs bathroom has a hand rail on the shower if you need it and one of the bedrooms has an adjustable bed! Dowstaits has a half finished basement with a wonderful den/game room for entertsining and a nice sized smart tv! The wifi was fast enough for all of my family to use their gaming devices with zero issues. And this brings me to my last point and probably the best part of the whole rental the host! They went out of their way to buy christmas gifts for everyone in my family leave hot cocoa and gingerbread houses for is to build with the kids and other snacks and goodies! They literally labeled every gift with each of my kids names and made sure they bought age appropriate toys! 6/5 this stay was magical! I will definately be coming back!
