Eclectic Historic Sunny Vista Home with City Views, Northshore

Clean cozy little house on the hill!

A charming house, carefully curated by the owner. Lisa was wonderful to work with.

Fascinating, pristine home with secret yard off the beaten path but near all the action.

Property had a great location she left she left snacks and filtered water for us which was great, off street parking was a plus. If we should find our way back to Pittsburgh we would definietly stay there again

This was such a charming home away from home! Lisa was wonderful to communicate with and the accommodations were top notch!!! As cold as it got in the Burgh, the home was warm and comfy and I got to experience the splendor of the hills lol!!!! A

Host was welcoming and responsive; home was charming and just right for my needs while in Pittsburgh. Thanks so much.

Host was not advised our booking was complete- something with the notification process- so had to clean before we could enter. Very welcoming and also to our pets, the place was nice and spacious with nice furnishings. I wish i would have paid attention to this being two story as the 13 stairs are quite steep and as older folks, were easily managed. Luckily, there is a rail to grip going up and down, which helped. With a fear of falling down stairs, it did limit me. Parking spot is convenient next to house but careful to open doors so not to hit the low rock wall.All in all, a very nice place and the host she was very sweet. We love that she does animal rescue too!

We didn’t feel comfortable in the neighborhood. The doors were not secure and you could see daylight through the cracks.

Loved the art/decor!

Had a wonderful stay and enjoyed Pittsburgh

We were in town for our daughter's birthday and the Fair in the Park, in Mellon Park. This location was convenient for all of our plans, plus close to the Strip District, which is one of our favorites places to visit and shop. This home was warm and inviting and just what we were looking for during our stay! Thank you for allowing us to stay.Kathy

Quiet and comfortable stay

We were in town for Picklesburgh with our dog and the home was everything we needed. It was safe, fenced in, and comfortable. Any makeup girlies, utilize the cabinet in the bathroom it will save you time getting ready. The stairs are steep but going up them a few times will get you used to them. Grateful there were enough towels and washcloths for our stay, we’ve not had that luck at many places we’ve stayed at. Highly recommend this place! Host was an excellent communicator and made sure we had everything we needed.

We just spent one night and it fit our needs perfectly.

It was a great stay!

Last minute booking as my Mother-in-law was not discharged from the hospital when expected. It was really amazing to find this place as it was close to the hospital and had a fenced in backyard for our dog. As we'd been stuck in Pittsburgh for medical reasons, he had to be on a leash most of our 'visit'. So, he loved being able to run around in the backyard leash free. The host was very communicative, and she truly cares about you enjoying your stay and enjoying the city. There are printed instructions inside the house for the house rules, trip/activity suggestions, and for any and all house quirks (strange light switch locates, etc.). She contacted us the night before and the morning of check-in with thoughtful insights including directions incase we weren't familiar/comfortable with driving in hilly areas and provided a weather outlook for the day as temperatures in the area can have a wide range. Generally speaking, we arent too far from Pittsburgh, so we were familiar with both of these things (30 degree temperature swing in one day is not uncommon in the region), but it was an incredibly nice and thoughtful gesture, especially if you have never experienced that kind of environment.

A comfortable place to stay and a bit “off the beaten path” in an older neighborhood in the hills of Pittsburgh. We love the eclecticism of it all. Wish we could have stayed longer. Thanks for letting us stay.

I came a day early and Lisa actually picked me up and got me to a friend that had a bed I could have for the night. So sweet and helpful. The cottage was spotless and very comfortable. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Great old house, home away from home vibes. Clean and open space, great communication with us before and during our stay. Host is willing to look into things if she doesn't already have helpful insights!

We loved this older home surrounded by beautiful antique furniture and artwork. We loved the view of Pittsburgh from the lookout down the street and how close everything is to the property. This is NOT a handicapped accessible property, however. This doesn’t deter us from booking here in the future, but the only bathroom and bedroom is on the second floor up pretty steep stairs. The front door also requires to walk up stairs. Again, we didn’t mind, but we also weren’t expecting it due to the listing description. We highly recommend this property to any able-bodied person/couple! Also, be prepared for no TV in the main bedroom upstairs.

Charming well appointed home a short drive to PNC park. Host is very accessible. Highly recommend.

We had a wonderful stay at Lisa’s place! Loved the convenient location and how big the space was. When we first arrived we had a problem with the shower but Lisa was very quick to respond and got it fixed quickly. I very much appreciated all her friendliness. We look forward to staying again!

We checked in late and checked out early for home, and did not have any time to check out all the amenities. Our goal was a hot shower and a comfortable bed, and Lisa’s place provided.

Thehouse

Very close to everything but not by foot. The hills to the house are steep! Most attractions are within just a couple of miles. Fantastic view! Clean and the host was quick to respond.
