So sad to have to write a less than positive review, but the house was not clean and it has a strong musty smell that appears to be coming up from the basement. The coffee pot had a bunch of mold growing in the filter compartment because the last renters didn't empty it when leaving, but apparently the cleaning crew didn't look at it either. The house had a lot of spiderwebs (and spiders) inside the foyer where you had to enter which again, the cleaning crew apparently hasn't paid attention to.Contacted the owner, received a quick reply and apology. Conversations were had about having a crew come in on day 2, but there was miscommunication and that didn't happen so my 2.5 days there were in a dirty house. Unfortunately, the pictures make the house look a lot nicer than it is, but that would have been ok if it was just clean.Wasn't looking for 5star lodging but was certainly expecting a clean place. Fridge and bathtub were both dirty and looked like they had not been cleaned in a while. Sadly disappointed.

Enjoyed our visit. Sarah was great in responding to any questions And making sure our stay was the best. Only comment is the home has a bit of a musty odor.

The house gave us a safe, comfortable home base for hikes in Watoga Park, Cranberry Wilderness, Seneca Rocks; shopping and the Opera House in Marlinton; and a visit to Cass to ride the train and take historic walking tour.
