Yinzers Getaway - Wonderful place and people

This, without any doubt, was the best place we've ever stsyed. Communication could not have been any better. The home clean, the amenities top rate and the beds as comfortable as home. The owner made our stay better than we ever could have asked for, especially considering the reason for our visit. As a Pittsburgh native, Ive been missing the friendliness and hospitality of home. Thank you for a fabulous stay. We will be back! Yiners fir life!

Excellent Family Holiday

Spending the holidays away from home can be hard but not at the Yinzers Getaway. The house was beautifully decorated, very clean, nice kitchen, and beautiful dining room for Christmas dinner. Perfect for families. Scott was a wonderful host, very responsive and full of useful information. Highly recommended

Girlfriend get together

The three-story house was very cozy and clean. The kitchen was well equipped, the living room was comfortable for us to sit around and talk, and the beds were very comfortable. We did not have any pets so we could not take advantage of the pet facilities in the basement. But for anyone with a cat, it would be ideal down there.
