hot tub fire pit Art & Wellness Retreat

What a perfect stay! We couldn’t have asked for a better host. Check-in was easy, the house equipped with all you need, and the location is great and walkable or a short uber or Lyft away.

From start to finish everything went smoothly. Andi was wonderful!! Always responded quickly to my questions. The house is beautiful with the kitchen well stocked with appliances, spices, coffee makers, coffee grinder! All the bedrooms are in the 2nd and 3rd floors of the house - for a person with mobility issues it may be a problem. My father in law who is 90 did not have any problem going up the steps. We came for a family wedding at Phipps and this place was convenient. But there is a lot of construction in Pittsburgh so it took longer to move around in the city.

Andi was an excellent host. She left personalized welcome messages for us in the house and checked in with us often to ensure we were having the best possible experience. The house is filled with Andi's artwork and other eclectic furnishings, which gives the place a very cool vibe. It's a perfect location for a campus visit to CMU. Highly recommended!

We are originally from Pittsburgh and wanted to do a family trip to visit my nephew from the Westcoast, who is attending CMU along with attending a Steelers game. I was looking for a location that could accommodate four adults and two teenagers comfortably and was close to CMU and Pittsburgh/Stadium. I found this lovely and charming place on Forbes Avenue that had four bedrooms with lots of baths with a great backyard for entertaining. There was a gas firepit for evening gatherings and eating smores. There is also a hot tub for use. We could walk to CMU for a campus visit, which was very convenient. The teenagers had the rooms for themselves on the third floor with privacy and we had rooms on the second floor. The first floor contained a spacious living room with fireplace and lots of eclectic art. There was a large dining room and kitchen. Downstairs were a washer and dryer for our use. The hosts were very responsive to our needs and were very welcoming. Overall, this home fit our needs very well and was terrific.

My wife and her brother and I really enjoyed staying in this house. I'm a Pittsburgh native who now lives in North Carolina and comes back regularly to visit my brother. This house is the best location for that (he lives just a few minutes away). But it's great in other ways as well. It's extremely comfortable, and the property manager is extremely responsive (she lives next door) We had my brother and his wife for dinner and also went to a Pirates game and to the Andy Warhol museum (which is marvelous). We only had three people in a house that could hold 12, but we loved our stay. I highly recommend this property.

What a perfect location - a short walk to campus. Very warm and welcoming home with plenty of space indoors and in the outdoor space for our family. Excellent communication with the very responsive and friendly owner!

This property was perfect for our group! The artistic touches to every wall in every room make you feel like you’re at home. The host was so kind, communicative and reasonable in the house rules/check-in/checkout. We loved it and will stay here again!

We enjoyed our stay at this house. It is nicely located not far from downtown and the convention center. We walked to the botanical gardens and Carnegie Mellon is close by. The back area with a hot tub was much appreciated after a long day of volleyball. It was very clean and the beds were comfortable.

We enjoyed a fantastic long weekend here. Beautiful backyard, lovely home and plenty of parking were some highlights. Our host communicated well and really made our stay special. We loved the location too.

Andi was a great, accommodating host. The house had everything we needed and then some. It was equipped well with comforts in furnishings, appliances, layout, products, and safety. Every detail was covered for our time celebrating our UPitt Grad. We will def keep this home in mind for future visits to Pitt.
