Lovely home

After a rocky start with the choices housekeeping made after dealing with a an unexpected washer breakdown, the remainder of our stay was lovely. The owner was apologetic & handled the inconvenience fairly. The home is in a great location with an easy, scenic walk to Sewickley’s restaurants & shopping. Furniture is comfortable, quality linens & towels are provided & the owners are very generous in providing supplies like coffee & paper products. The hot tub is a wonderfully relaxing amenity & the bathroom shower is roomy with great shower heads & water pressure! We truly enjoyed front porch sitting & our 9 night stay at the Boxwood House.

Great location and cute home

We loved the town of Sewickley with its coffee shops and other boutiques. The cottage was immaculate with nice decor and comfortable furniture. Everything was as described. The hosts were welcoming with a bottle of wine awaiting our arrival. We highly recommend and plan to return. The bridge over the Ohio River to Sewickley can be congested but we planned accordingly since we needed to cross for travel to our destinations.

Satisying stay.

My friends and I stayed in this home the weekend of a Steelers game and very much enjoyed it. The listing has a good accuracy. The kitchen and bathrooms are standouts of the property. The check in/out process was very smooth and communication with the hosts was great! Our only complaint was that it was a little dusty inside.

Beautiful but zero privacy

The inside of this home was immaculate. Very impressed with everything and no complaints surrounding cleanliness or anything of that sort. I was a bit standoffish in the dining room considering there was no curtains or blinds on the windows.there was also zero privacy outside. The neighborhood was very nice but if you are someone who likes to sit outside and dislike being stared at the entire time then this isn’t the place for you. We felt like we were intruders to them. The hot tub was useless due to the lack of privacy as well. 5 star though for all the basic things that I need when staying somewhere!
