Family Fun Amongst the Trees and on the Allegheny River
We come home to Pittsburgh every summer to visit our hometown and big families. To make it more fun this year, we decide to go âup camp!â I loved tent camping and staying in my godparents cabin as a kid and was thrilled to return and show off the fun and beauty of the area to my kids, husband and in laws.
We had a bit of a rough start dealing with a fallen tree blocking the driveway and a downed power line but handled that and got to making fun memories the next day. The property offers many opportunities for fun in and out of the water. The fire pit area offers both covered and uncovered areas to sit, talk and gather around the fire or enjoy a meal on one of the many picnic tables. My BIL was able to bring his camper and that allowed us to spread out and gave us more space. The bunk house was great for all the kiddos and main house bed was good for my husband and I. The only thing that I really missed was having an oven but thatâs because I like to do lots of baked goods and casseroles for large groups. To be honest the pictures on the property aren't as nice as the actual place. Hope to return again soon!
My husband and I sought a few days of privacy, tranquility, and nature with our dogs, and the Riverside Retreat delivered perfectly! This beautiful and unique property offers direct access to the Allegheny River, making it an idyllic getaway. The owners were delightful, and the rental provided a wide range of activities to enjoy. Iâm excited to bring my 10-year-old nephew and his friends next timeâthey will absolutely love it. We will definitely be returning!
A wonderful rustic and peaceful place to get away with beautiful views of the river. Co-owners were very pleasant and easy to communicate with. Thank you, we enjoyed our stay and will be back!
