Really nice space. The feel of an open farmhouse, but with all the modern amenities you would expect in a newly constructed home. The wood burning fireplace was a nice touch, and the long communal dining table was a nice gathering point.The location is relatively close to downtown Ligonier, but it's far enough off the beaten path that everything is quiet and serene. Highly recommended.
We needed a weekend away and this place was the perfect spot. The house was clean and beautiful, stocked with everything you could need. We truly enjoyed our stay.
This house was huge for just the two of us, and we enjoyed it greatly. Chilly season to be spending too much time outside, but it looked beautiful and peaceful.
The home was perfect. Picture perfect view out the dining room off the patio of a babbling brook, which was so nice to listen too. Very clean, beautiful decorating, comfortable beds, lots of room, and everything you need to home cook meals. The location was great, a short scenic ride to Laural Mountain if you are staying there to ski.
We had a wonderful time at John and Kathleen's home. The house was comfortable with lots of seating, plenty of kitchen equipment, a great layout and lots of natural light. Our favorite part was the outdoor space and the covered seating looking out over the creek. The location was an easy drive into town. Overall I would recommend this home for a relaxing family getaway.
This is a beautiful home that is well stocked with everything you could need. Our son got married this weekend and it was a great place to get ready and also relax before the big day.
We spent 3 nights at this beautifully remodeled house. It was easy to find and was exactly as the VRBO ad said. Lots of space for everyone, it was clean, games for the kids, lots of room for entertaining. We will be back. Thankyou for making our trip a 5 Star trip and we can't wait to go back.
We couldn’t ask for a better location for a holiday family get together. The Finch House did not disappoint. This house was so beautifully decorated and so very clean. The private location along the creek was so beautiful and peaceful. John was a great host and was available for any questions. My family was so sad to leave. We cannot wait to go back again!!The McCracken family
As always the Finch House was an amazing stay! From the open floor plan that provides ample space for our family to spread out and relax, to the comfortable beds, to the large dining table that allowed us to enjoy a meal together Finch House has it all. The weather was perfect so using the grill and having a fire outside by the babbling creek also added to the perfect fall getaway! Thank you for being great hosts and sharing your wonderful property!
2nd stay - winter and summer. Beautiful house inside and out. Chic decor in every room, well stocked kitchen and peaceful stream and gliders. Already looking ahead to book in Fall.
Beautiful home with awesome outdoor areas to relax or visit with loved ones. Our children loved the bunk beds and all the little touches that made them feel like they had their very own area. The house is very very well equipped and spacious but comfortable. Will definitely stay here again the the future.
Our family loved your place! We rested, relaxed, caught fish, played in the creek, played games and had so much fun! Your home is a gem
And we will definitely recommend to others!!! Thank you so much for having such a wonderful home!
We stayed here for a relaxing bachelorette weekend away from everything. The backyard was gorgeous and we had so much fun on the creek, having campfires, and enjoying the outdoor patio. There were plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms where we did not have any issues. Highly recommend.
This home exceeded all of our expectations. It was impeccably clean with beautiful furnishings with a well stocked kitchen. The serene creek in the backyard adds to the tranquil setting. The convenience of being close to downtown Ligonier and Idlewild Park was a bonus. They also had a wide variety of games and toys available for bad weather days. I highly recommend this home for a relaxing and memorable getaway.
I stayed for a weekend with friends (middle-aged women), and we were all in love with this charming, beautifully decorated, thoughtfully appointed, and comfortable house. Great location - easy to find and close to the town center. Nice spaces to sit outside for coffee in the morning or drinks in the evening around a fire to enjoy the sounds of the creek. Inside spaces are exactly as pictured, and the house lacks for nothing - plenty of kitchen supplies, towels, games, books, and even a diffuser with the blow dryer, which was much appreciated by those of us with curls :). Comfortable beds, too. Communication with the hosts was excellent. I would not hesitate to stay here again.
Finch House is a wonderful property. The location right beside a stream is peaceful. All of the light switches are labeled!! That is a level of detail much appreciated. The entire aesthetic of the home was perfect. I coild have sat for hours outside on the patio or the sheltered shed porch. Thank you John and Kathleen for such a pleasant stay. Definitely "exceptional".P.S. As someone who grew up in Westmoreland County, I have always loved the town of Ligonier!
This property was one of the nicest properties we have rented. It is very well stocked with just about everything you’d need. The owners have done a great job with the decor and making it feel very comfortable. Also, the owners were very responsive with any questions we had prior to our arrival. We were 6 adults together for the weekend to celebrate ringing in 2024. The accommodations were great. You could have more people and be very comfortable.
We look forward to possibly renting the property again. We had a great time!
Everything about this home is amazing! Such a warm welcome and all amenities were wonderful. We especially enjoyed our time outside right by the stream. Relaxing and comfy seating. The interior design is gorgeous and warm. Simply everything you could ask for! We were there to visit family in Ligonier and the location of this home was perfect! Just a quick drive into town and lots to do and see there. From the first communication with the owner to the check-in and check-out process, John was quick to answer my questions and to respond. This home is a rare find and we appreciated all that was done to make us feel welcome. We will definitely return!
This was our first get-away with our adult children, their spouses and our grandchildren. We were all THRILLED with the accommodations! The home is clean, comfortable and beautifully decorated. The home is in a peaceful setting. It so relaxing to sit by a trickling creek!
We enjoyed a fire in the firepit on Saturday evening. On Sunday we went to Idlewild for several hours in the morning. The home is about 15 minutes from Idlewild, so we were able to give the children naps in the afternoon and then return to the park late afternoon and evening.
Our grandson loved playing in the creek even though the water was cold. We took a few toy boats along, fishing line and a fishing pole. He enjoyed releasing the boat and then reeling it in! The grandchildren enjoyed building with the Lincoln logs. There are quality adult and children's books available.
John & Kathleen are great communicators! I will definitely stay here again when I'm in the area.
This place is beautiful!! My family and I loved how everything was set up and just the whole feel of the house!! I recommend everyone to stay at this place, you won’t be disappointed at all!!
