Yough Treehouse is located in the town of Confluence nestled in the Laurel Highlands Mountains. Our private home sits on 2 acres of land along the Youghiogheny River at the tailwaters of the dam. Surrounded by protected woods (recently purchased by Western PA Conservancy and trails are in the works), at the end of a one lane road but within walking distance to town. We are 400 yds to the Great Allegheny Passage bike trail.

Our secluded, custom build home is well equipped and clean. The open floor plan in the kitchen/living area and large deck with grill make for ideal socializing. The house has lots of windows and is bright and cheery.

Yough Treehouse can accommodate up to 6 people. We have 2 bedrooms and an open loft for sleeping and 2 full baths. The master bedroom has a king sized bed and full bath including a claw foot tub. The second bedroom has 2 twins. And the loft has a queen sized bed.

The kitchen is well equipped with everything you'll need. There is a gas grill on the deck. All linens and towels are provided. There is a TV/DVD and high speed, wireless (wifi) cable internet. Verizon and AT&T cell phones work well from the house. The house has central A/C.
Our home is kid friendly and there is a highchair and portacrib. With 4 distinct seasons, the house is available year round.

Without leaving our property you can enjoy the natural beauty of the area while relaxing on our spacious deck over looking the river. Or listen for geese, ducks and other birds on the flagstone patio with built in fire ring or while soaking the hot tub. Fly fish for trout in the well stocked tailwaters of the dam in our back yard. Watch for great blue heron, osprey or if you are lucky the bald eagles that fish here as well.

Make a day swimming and boating at the Yough Lake just around the corner. Take a break from your ride through from DC to Pittsburgh on the bike trail or spend the day biking shorter routes in either direction. Kayak or pick up a raft trip in nearby Ohiopyle. Make this the perfect retreat for trips to the 2 Frank Lloyd Wright homes Fallingwater and Kentuck Knob. We are centrally located to the ski resorts (Wisp, Seven Springs & Hidden Valley).

Whether you are looking for a romantic getaway, a family planning the ultimate recreational vacation or old friends looking for a quiet retreat our home is the perfect setting. For larger groups please consider the http://www.youghriverhouse.com/ Riverhouse just down the road (sleeps 12). Or consider renting both the Riverhouse and Treehouse. The houses are walking distance apart.
Come back year after year and explore the wonders of the Laurel Highlands.


Please note that there is a security camera/motion detection light- facing the driveway, that we use to monitor when the space is vacant.

    Never disappointed at the treehouse. It's a home away from home feeling. Owners go above and beyond to make it the best experience. They are always open to suggestions or needs you might have. They adding outdoor hand rails for our friend who suffers from MS. Been going for over 10 years and now go twice a year because we love it sooooo much.

    The house was perfect for our group. The river was beautiful. It was so nice to be able to walk to the bike trail and have the quiet road to walk on as well. We had some trouble with the internet, but the host was very responsive and quickly walked us through troubleshooting. The host was top notch. We will definitely remember this location and this host for future stays!

    This is the third time staying at the Yough Treehouse. We are very comfortable here and the setting couldn't be better. There is easy access to biking, hiking, fishing, and just hanging out on the beautiful deck looking at the river. We especially enjoy the quiet. The house is always clean and well equipped and Kara is a pleasure to deal with. Obviously, we will continue coming back!

    The Tree House was everything we needed to enjoy ourselves and the surrounding area. The area has something for everyone, river, lake, biking, hiking, state park, national monument, Frank Loyd Wright Waterfall home or you can just sit on the deck and enjoy the sound of the river.

    Yough Treehouse was the perfect spot for our weekend getaway! Five adult siblings took our mom for a surprise 79th birthday weekend. Just mom and her kids - a special time for sure! There was plenty of room for the six of us. The kitchen was well-appointed and had everything we needed. We appreciated that a bottled water dispenser was provided for us to fill our reusable water bottles, thereby avoiding the wasteful use of disposable plastic bottles. Incidentals were also provided (garbage bags, dish soap, hand soap, paper towels, toilet paper, etc.). So nice not to have to remember all the little things! The fire pit area was our favorite! The lighting created a lovely ambiance and ensured our walks back to the house were safely lit. We found slab firewood just a couple of miles East on Route 281. They have a barn painted with the black Mail Pouch logo. The address is approximately 8178 Kingwood Rd, Confluence. Very nice people and inexpensive! Kara is a great host who takes pride in the details for her guests! We will book with her again! Thank you, Kara, for sharing your lovely home with us!

    The home was very private yet close to all outdoor activities. Right along the river, walking, biking, and fishing were all within steps. We enjoyed the outside deck and the firepit and hot tub were available to us. The home was very comfortable and well equipped. WiFi worked great. This was our second time here and we will definitely return.

    My husband and I have been spending our anniversary at the treehouse every year since 2018. The moment we turn onto River Road our whole mentality changes, I consider our trips to the treehouse the best gift I give myself every year. The home is always clean, furniture comfortable, and has all the amities we need to enjoy our stay. The property is peaceful, we enjoy listening to the river, the falling leaves, the chirping crickets, and love when the train whistle when it comes into the town. I could go on and on but considering that we have continued to return since 2018 speaks volumes. Unitl next year Treehouse!

    We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the Yough Treehouse! The weather had turned cooler which made the hot tub and fire pit that much more inviting. The house was clean and well stocked (games, blankets, filtered water). Being able to bring our dog was another bonus. The location is in walking distance to the Lucky Dog Cafe, where we had a really good lunch, and to Riversport, where we rented some kayaks. The bike trail is also right there, so if you want to bike or just take a nice walk you are all set! We hope to come back and stay again sometime!
