Somerset, Pennsylvania
**Same Great Cottage Under New Ownership**

The home itself is nestled between two natural spring fed streams, with large boulders, beech, hemlock and oak trees! A spectacular property just waited to be enjoyed by the busy family or professional couple looking to escape the hustle and bustle (and pressures) of city living! Make it your personal getaway!

Guests please NOTE this listing requires a signed lease to finalize all guest reservations. Please do not submit a reservation request if you are unwilling to sign a short term lease agreement.
Minutes away from both Seven Springs and Hidden Valley. THIS PROPERTY IS LOCATED AT APPROXIMATELY 2800 FEET ELEVATION. YEAR ROUND WE RECOMMEND 4WD/AWD VEHICLES. IN THE WINTER, WE DO PLOW; HOWEVER, GUESTS SHOULD ABSOLUTELY HAVE A 4WD/AWD VEHICLE TO STAY HERE FROM NOV 1-MARCH 31!
Though this property is not quite "off grid" even during April 1 to October 31, it is a good idea to have a AWD/4WD vehicle. Great privacy but could be considered "remote" by some folks.
Please NOTE to AVOID DISAPPOINTMENT: This home will put you close to nature, there are frequent animals close to the home. The home is under pest/rodent treatment; but, you will see all types of bugs, chipmunks, mice, flying squirrels at the home. At one point, this home has had each inside the home. Raccoons, deer and bear are relatively common close to the house; so, outside garbage/food should always be secured. If this is NOT an experience as a guest that you would like to have, we would recommend you NOT booking this home.
Still located close enough to enjoy Fallingwater, Kentuck Knob, Yough Lake, Confluence and Ohiopyle area!
Security:
For the safety or our guests and the protection of the property against criminal activity, all guests understand that, at a minimum, there is a “Blink” security camera type located at the front and rear entrance of the cabin to monitor access/egress and driveway areas. Security cameras are in use 24 hours a day/7 days a week.
Guests should not remove, disturb, modify or damage any part of the onsite security system. IF this occurs it will result in the loss of security deposit or added charges, which ever applies.
We really enjoyed our stay here. Having a bonfire in the middle of the woods at this cabin felt like paradise. Also, sitting in the hot tub and staring at the stars was a really magical experience. We had a great time here!
We loved watching the breeze in the trees from the excellent hot tub. Lots of comfy seating inside and out. The creek was lovely. Kitchen pretty well stocked.
This was our first time renting through VRBO. We have stayed in VRBO cabins in the past that family had rented. Those were totally different & nice experiences. This cabin was filthy. Sheets were in baskets at the bottom of the beds. When I removed the comforter to make the beds that I didn't think I was required to do, there were small dead bugs in every bed. One bed had a pee stained mattress cover. The dishes & glasses were dirty/dusty. Anything we used in the kitchen had to be washed before using. Stove was dirty/greasy. Fridge was dirty, especially on the inside bottom. Rug in the living room was very stained. Towels in the bathrooms were subpar and one had a blood stain on it. We got locked out because the battery in the door lock went dead, we went in through a window screen, then called the maintenance person to fix the lock problem. We did not use the hot tub because we felt if the cabin was that dirty, how could the hot tub be clean? We did not use the TV because the note on it said we would have to pay an extra $75 if we did. We left the cabin cleaner that when we arrived because we couldn't stand to stay in such filth. I emailed the owner when we returned about our bad experience. I asked for a full refund. In a weeks time, I have not heard back from the owner with an explanation, apology or refund.
This place was cozy, clean, and so much fun. In the summer it’s hidden away in the trees with the streams giving relaxing sounds. The hot tub was size-able and clean. We will definitely go back again. A true getaway!
This was our 4th or 5th stay at this property and we were pleasantly surprised to see lovely new furniture and a cohesive new setup! (The listing photos are accurate - I just didn’t look that closely, whoops.) The cabin is always clean and comfortable, great secluded location but easy access to parks and the PA Turnpike. Can’t wait for our next visit.
The area was so pretty! At night all you’d hear were the sounds of nature while sitting in the hot tub or by the fire. Inside it was very clean and cozy. It definitely felt like a home. We’ll definitely be back in the future!
The surroundings of the property were beautiful with the woods and streams nearby. There are other properties nearby but far enough away for privacy and quiet. The fire pit and hot tub were both very nice additions and my wife and I used both. A good place for a quiet getaway and the property is only 25 minutes from Somerset. Internet service is very slow if you want to check weather or local attractions on your phone or laptop and the TV service was also frequently choppy as well. Property owners do provide some DVDS however if you're inside due to the rain or just want to chill. Overall a cute place to stay for a quiet weekend.
Holthiem hideaway is an absolute gem!!! The property is in an amazing location so peaceful and serene. The house/cabin is so clean fresh and inviting your time inside the cabin is so relaxing with all the great amenities and everything was so well maintained and clean it was so nice. The linens were clean and fantastic. We took use of the hot tub but peaked inside the water was clean warm and so inviting for a nice relaxing soak. No doubt in my mind we will be back for regular stays in this amazing rental.
Absolutely loved this little cottage.
Peaceful. Beautiful. Just all around quiet, and a lovely little piece of Pennsylvania. An amazing get away, and an awesome maintenance man! Cozy, and quaint! Perfect for relaxing! Must have 4 wheel drive, as its off a beaten path in the middle of no where. It felt like my Suburban was going rock climbing, haha. My husband, and I had a blast just hanging out in the wilderness. I will definitely return in the Spring, or maybe early November this year before the snow! Thank you so much for such an elegant/fancy stay!
The atmosphere of Holtheim hideaway is peaceful. The cabin was clean and provided almost every amenity you would need. Full kitchen, kitchen ware, blender, toaster oven, Kurieg, coffee pot.. hot tub was large and views are to die for. We had to reach out to the management of the property due to a fallen tree on the road leading to the property and his response was timely and impressive. If you want an escape from everyday chaos- this is the place for you!!
The cabin itself was okay but the property was not cleaned I had to wash all the towels in the bedding no toilet paper wasn’t swept I had booked this reservation on June 17 and when I arrived at the location the owner said they didn’t know that I had booked it so that they didn’t have it ready I had to do all this on my own and paid extra for linen that wasn’t clean and cleaning fee when the property was not not to mention all the nails that are outside in the yard I picked up at least 30 nails they could’ve been in somebody’s foot they didn’t tell me that I need to provide my own firewood .
This was a wonderful weekend getaway! Very peaceful and beautiful. We were outside most the time, loved the hot tub it was very clean. It’s beautiful inside as well. I would go back!
The location was great, the house was great, the hot tub was great. The only problem was that there was no hot water in the shower. There was hot water in both sinks but not in the shower, lukewarm at best. We contacted the property manager the next day. He said he “would talk to the boss man” and let us know. We never heard from anyone. We’d like to book future stays here but not if we can’t confirm that we can take hot showers.
Nice, simple cabin. Bathroom is nicely remodeled. Hot tub worked like a champ and was new. Gas fire place was great. Location is somewhat remote as the last 3 miles are on a dirt road. We were 30 minutes from Fallingwater and Kentuck Knob. The local ski resorts and Ohiopyle were even closer. Neighbor cabins are visible from the cabin but far enough away that you have privacy. the management company was great and responsive. The pictures show chairs outside but none were available for us to use on the deck or around the fire pit. Towels and linens were old and thin. One towel had a hole in it the size of quarter - for the price I expected better. They have internet but don't want you to use it other than for 5-10 minutes a day to search for local things to do or points of interest which was disappointing and not clearly indicated in the listing. I have stayed in many cabins for rent so I have some perspective and I would give this one a 3+ stars for the price you pay.
