Snowy cabin weekend

Stayed with Robin for a snowy Cabin weekend with 17 friends. The house was clean and charming, the fireplace was cozy, and Robin was so communicative! She helped us get out in the morning when the snow was knee-high and our cars were skidding. All in all recommend!

This house was absolutely amazing. We had intentions of skiing and tubing but Mother Nature thought otherwise. We were so happy to have the deck and the expansive lawn. The kids all played kickball and went fishing. The house is very clean and has everything you could possibly need for your stay. We loved our stay. If we ever returned to the area we would try to rent here again.

Family Meetup

Wonderful location for family reunion. Shade trees, big yard, river for wading, firepit, and trains! My grandkids loved the trains and the bunk room. Bike trail was nearby for those who wanted to ride. Large kitchen and dining table were perfect for our family.

Cute and perfect!

Perfect stay for us! Incredibly rural and far from other stores, and the roads were not plowed much by the time we got there so be aware of that! Otherwise the home was perfect!

Beautiful Hidden Getaway

Every year myself and 2 of my sister in laws do a 2-3 day outdoorsy getaway with our total of 12 kids ranging from 3-20. Paddlers Lane is a hidden gem, the property is beautiful along the Yough River. The property managers were great, helpful and had open communication available before, during and after to make our stay comfortable. House was exceptionally clean with everything you would need. We spent time at the small beach on the river and walked the trails. There is a flat yard for kids to run and a place to enjoy fire pit at night. The kids loved the 3rd floor loft and spent a lot of time hanging out there making memories. Everyone enjoyed watching the trains that run in-front of the property, surprising non disturbing but actually exciting. Highly recommend.

Wonderful, well-furnished getaway on the beautiful river!

This is a beautiful, peaceful very tastefully appointed property. It very easily accommodated our six adults and four teen and tween children. Trains run by from time to time, but not a problem. We would gladly return

Great Getaway

We had a great time at the property. It was very relaxing and we spent a lot of time around the fire pit together with friends and family. Beautiful view of the river right on the property. The place was very cleanly and the grounds were well maintained. It is also very large and can accommodate a lot of people. There is a train track that is in close proximity but no one felt it was disruptive. It adds to the experience and we enjoyed watching the lights of the train approach in the dark. Overall, we would highly recommend and look forward to returning in the near future.

Easter Trip

My three sisters and I met with our families at the Paddlers Lane property for a weekend of fun over the Easter weekend. The property is located on a beautiful lot next to the river. We had a wonderful time playing corn hole and croquet and sat around the fire pit for hours. Ohio Pyle Park is phenomenal.

The perfect cozy cabin

This property was the perfect blend of cozy and spacious for our group of 6 adults and 2 happy dogs. We loved the large common areas and the queen bedrooms. The house is so tidy and intentionally decorated, we really appreciated it. We also are thankful for our communications with the hosts. We’ve already started thinking about our next visit!

Paddler's Lane Retreat

Our family had such a wonderful stay at Paddler's Lane Retreat. From the beautiful grounds to the comfort and coziness of the home itself. We couldn't have asked for more! And, you know what they say about location. Paddler's Lane is within minutes of great food like Mitch's Restaurant and River's Edge Cafe as well as a short drive to Ohio Pyle State Park where we enjoyed miles of trails for both hiking and biking while taking in nature's beauty. Robin and Dan are truly the best hosts and made their home our home for a perfect week!

Lived up to our high expectations

Our experience was just as positive as so many others. The house was beautiful, very nicely furnished with lots of high quality touches. The kitchen was extremely well-stocked with every cooking implement you can think of. And there was no shortage of glassware - from wine goblets to champagne flutes to martini glasses - we were covered! The setting was tranquil, with the trains no bother at all. All 10 of us enjoyed our stay immensely.

About the host

Hosted by Robin Morris

Host profile image
I am a full time potter and an avid outdoor enthusiast. Besides whitewater kayaking and skiing I love to bicycle and have traveled by bike across Australia, New Zealand, England, Tasmania, Ireland, Scottland, Wales, the Isle of Mann and the Northeastern US. I also love to hike and dream of someday getting the tiime to Hike the entire Appliachian Trail as a thru-hiker

Why they chose this property

The Laurel Highlands of Pennsylvania is an outdoor mecca. It boasts the best whitewater kayaking and rafting in the Eastern US, has the longest rails to trail bicycle trail in the states and an amazing array of hiking and mountain biking trails. We are surrounded by 4 State parks and our four ski resorts keep us active for the winter season.Being adjacent to Ohiopyle state park we have a front row seat to all of these things. We are secluded but close enough to the small towns of Confluence and Ohiopyle that anything we need can be easily obtained. In addition, we are located close to Fallingwater and Kentuck Knob and these along with the other cultural attractions available just an hour and a half away in PLittsburgh we feel we have the best of all worlds

What makes this property unique

Riverside, outdoor mecca, near Fallingwater, Kentuck Knob, on the banks of the Youghiogheny River
