*We added an outdoor heated saltwater pool in May 2025 and guests are loving it!

*Most of our bookings are 2-4 generation family gatherings which is what the lodge was designed to host.

*Our cancellation policy is a little different than the limited options offered by VRBO. If you need to cancel & we can rebook your dates, we return 100% of what we are able to recover on your behalf. Your deposit is 100% non-refundable if we are not able to rebook your dates. VRBO's boxes only included strict policy or no-refund and neither describe what we have in our contract. We set this up according to how VRBO instructed us to.

*There are now 3 private bedrooms with doors & sound proofing on the 3rd floor as of 6-2023 instead of a large open loft area.

*Host has 15+ years of managing & maintaining VRBO 5 star rating through 3 different rentals that served 20-25 guests each

*Luxury tiny house is dog friendly and the main lodge is NOT dog friendly. The tiny house is within 100 ft of lodge and is upscale. It has 2 queens, full bathroom w/ 4' shower, & a small kitchen with full size refrigerator. There is an additional flat fee of $500 to add the Luxury Tiny House regardless of the number of nights rented. It isn't included in the pricing noted on VRBO.

*Out of respect for guests with allergies, the main lodge ISN'T pet/dog friendly except the Pavilion Bedroom Suite which has a separate entrance. The entire Tiny House is dog friendly.

*Full disclosure: VRBO's system shows base rates as the price per night at first glance but the base price doesn't reflect the addition of fees so please look deeper for the overall price. For instance, the cleaning cost is $850 (takes 40-50 hours); the laundry fee is $500 (towels & linens for 20+ guests and 20+ beds), taxes which are a pass through to the county & state & VRBO's service fee are not reflected in the base price posted as the daily rate.

    This property is amazing. It’s not just a house, it’s an experience. It sits as a peaceful country home with plenty of entertainment both inside and out. Ping pong, pool, board games, toys, puzzles, cards for rainy days. Hiking trails, tubing in the Yough River, investigating the creek critters, feeding and brushing the horses, swinging, swimming in the pool and soaking in the hot tub round out the outdoor activities without ever leaving the property. This was our sixth family trip taken across the US with our kids and grands 25 total, My parents joined this time so ages ranged from 84 - 9 months! We fell in love with the hostess, Lynn, who is filled with the gift of hospitality. This is the first time we’ve considered returning for a second time

    Our wonderful host Lynn has provided EVERYTHING needed for a wonderful family group stay. This is an amazing property for all ages. There is so much to do, in any kind of weather. We had a rainy day and there are so many indoor things to do - a pool table, board games, ping pong, hot tub (outdoors by the pool ).. it goes on and on.. The kitchen is beautifully equipped. The setting by the river is beautiful and peaceful; services are not far away but from the property no other houses are visible. It really is your own private haven.About 30 minutes drive away we enjoyed the mountain town of Ohiopyle where we rented bikes to bike along the river. So beautiful. And right on the property there is a beautiful, level hike along the river. In warm weather Lynn has tubes, etc to use to enjoy the river.We highly recommend this property and the very nice and helpful Lynn.

    Wonderful in every way.The property, the house, the host, the location, the river, the horses, the farm dog, the hot tub, the way everything is provided and every switch and drawer / door is labelled - it's been a fantastic way to spend a few days with a large group of family and friends. No complaints at all.

    Our experience at Stillwater Haven was incredible. Everything you need is there, just pack some food and clothes and you will feel right at home! There is so much space and the views of the river are fantastic! 10/10 experience and can’t wait to come back again!

    When Lynn tells you not to overpack, please LISTEN to her. She has everything and then some. The kitchen was a dream to cook in. Finally a rental that can sleep 25 actually has a stocked kitchen to cook for 25. She has more towels in the bathroom than Kohls has on their store shelves. We have found our forever rental that checks off every box for our needs for a four generation family to have a relaxing get away from jobs, stress, and just enjoy peaceful family time making memories that are priceless. Book it, you won't regret it!!

    This vacation home was better than any other we've experienced. The great rooms and family rooms were huge, and a lot of the bedrooms were spacious. Plenty of room for our family of 23 with space to spare. The cousins had a great time in the river and in the yard. This host is wonderful, she worked through any little glitches or questions we had, and even handled a major failure with very little inconvenience. She had everything we wanted, and even a couple of things we didn't expect. You should have SIX STARS. We highly recommend Stillwater Haven and hope to return.
