About this property

Rustic Elegance on the Banks of the Loyalhanna Creek–Ligonier

This creekside home provides the perfect spot for a quiet, secluded retreat. As the name suggests, this charming house sits in a wooded glen next to a tranquil, stocked mountain stream. Inside you'll find spacious accommodations including a dining/living room area, full kitchen, sunroom, 2 bathrooms, 4 bedrooms, a second-floor sitting room and laundry room. And since you’re just a mile from town, it’s just a short drive or bike ride to Ligonier’s many shops and eateries.

Rustic elegance on the banks of the Loyalhanna Creek. Fall asleep to the sounds of the babbling brook in one of the house’s four bedrooms.

The Living Room is large and spacious with its comfortable furniture, working fireplace, and flat-screen television. It is the definition of relaxation. The roomy kitchen will allow you to indulge your inner chef as you prepare meals for the ones you love. Situated right off the living room, the dining room features a old-fashioned country dining room set, perfect for a memorable family gathering. If you want a spot to play a board game with the kids or just escape with a warm cup of tea, the sunroom’s the place to be.

Fire up the stone barbeque, stretch out in an Adirondack chair, or just stroll around the spacious grounds that surround the Creekside house. The kids will love running around the yard, playing on the play set, or exploring down by the creek. Plenty of fishing rods for your use in the stocked creek with bait available in two local shops.

Quaint Home on Beautiful Property

This was a delightful place to stay. The property was WONDERFUL for children. It had a huge yard and a very nice creek for the kids to play in. They absolutely loved it. The house is older with a lot of character and located in a quiet neighborhood.

Holiday getaway

My children and I enjoyed a wonderful stay in this spacious and beautiful home. The bitter winter temps didn't allow us to fully make use of the expansive outdoor areas and creek access, but we hope to visit again in summer.

Good for a short trip/ last minute booking

We needed the house last minute and the owner was very responsive. The grounds were beautiful the stream with a fire pit. Unfortunately we didnt get to use it much because of a snow storm but it was very convenient to a Giant Eagle and restaurants

Cute Cottage

Very cute cottage, loved it! The house was beautiful and cozy. A lot of extra blankets and pillows. Only complaint is that it is very close to neighbors, so if you are planning to have a fire keep that in mind.

Great private get-a-way

Great, secluded home with all the needed amenities. Very responsive and accommodating host. The four bedrooms were great for our family and it’s close enough to Ligonier and Lee trough that the seclusion is a benefit biggest drawback is there is only one TV and it’s very small.

Family Wedding

My sister and her husband were in town with their adult children, spouses, and grandchildren. They were extremely impressed with the quaintness and unique charm of the home. Such a beautiful place to reconnect with each other while celebrating my son’s wedding. Every thing was homey and comfortable.

Girls getaway weekend

This property was exactly as described. Beautiful setting, charming house and close to Idlewild Park. My granddaughters loved playing in the creek and s'mores around the campfire. There was plenty of room for 5 adults and 3 children. It was a perfect weekend!

Wonderful weekend trip!

We all just loved this home! Beautifully designed but so comfy. We will come back next time to this great house.. The only thing is there needs to be railings at the doorways.It was hard for us seniors getting in and out of the house.. Thanks for having such a gem of a home, Jeannie and Kenny Marsh

Another wonderful time

This was our third stay at Creekside and once again, we were delighted. 3 generations of our family love it and we were very pleased with the upgrades and renovations that were done after last year's flood. Only down side is that the table now only seats 6 (Were told that the table leaves left in the flood)whereas the house sleeps 8. Beautiful grounds, fabulous location, very responsive management! lOVE IT.
