The Neighborhood: We are 2 blocks from Carson Street! You'll be in the heart of South Side. Loads of bars, great food, and interesting shops. There's also a ton of history in the area. “Carson Street is remarkable for its abundant and vivid Victorian commercial architecture,” writes Walter C. Kidney, in Pittsburgh's Landmark Architecture: The Historic Buildings of Pittsburgh and Allegheny County. The 29 buildings featured on this website help introduce you to the “Great American Main Street.” It offers some of the best nightlife, restaurants, and entertainment in Pittsburgh.
Getting Around: All cars require a temporary DIGITAL (not physical) parking permit from the city for parking in permit zones surrounding the home. We provide instructions for you to obtain a permit for each of your vehicles. Please read our house manual or message us for details.
Other Things to Note: Need baby gear during your stay? We’ve got you covered! Rent cribs, car seats, strollers, toys & more. Just send us a message for details!
We offer two propane refill options:
Propane Refill Service (By Request / Approval – Additional Fee) Guests can request a propane delivery and installation for a fee. This service is not guaranteed and is best if arranged in advance.
Self-Refill (Reimbursement Available) Guests may refill propane themselves. We will reimburse up to $30 per full tank per appliance with a valid receipt.
In one of the queen rooms, please note that we provide an additional rollaway twin bed conveniently stored in the closet for your use. This ensures flexibility in sleeping arrangements while maintaining ample space when not in use.
Filtered Water We provide a refrigerator for your use, but we do not stock filtered water. This is because most standard refrigerator or pitcher filters do not effectively purify the water—they primarily improve taste and odor without removing many contaminants. In our own home, we use reverse osmosis (RO) filtration, which provides a much higher level of water purity. RO systems remove a wide range of impurities, including heavy metals, chlorine, fluoride, and other dissolved solids that basic filters can't. When we travel, we personally purchase reverse osmosis water from the store to ensure we're drinking the cleanest water possible. If high-quality filtered water is important to you, we recommend picking up a few gallons of RO water nearby during your stay.
* This home has a steep set of stairs going from the 2nd to 3rd floor.
* There is ongoing city infrastructure projects near our property. There may be construction activity which might include daytime noise and occasional street closures. Parking is available on the surrounding streets.
Please understand that these developments are part of city-wide improvements and are beyond our control. We are committed to making your stay as comfortable as possible and have equipped our home with white noise machines so you can get a peaceful night sleep.
We appreciate your understanding and are here to assist you in making your visit enjoyable and hassle-free. Thank you for choosing our home for your stay.

A Pittsburgh Gem
The location is convenient. The house has many updates and is clean. The outdoor area in back is amazing. We were able to park very close to the house most of the time. The steps to the second and third floor could be difficult for someone with limited mobility, but wasn't an issue for us. Great communication. Would definitely recommend.

Bachelor Party
The property was great for a bachelor party group of 6. Location is great as it’s only a 2 minute walk from Carson street which has many bars/restaurant's along it. Also the property itself was very nice and looked great. I would recommend any bachelor/bachelorette parties to stay at the property.

Excellent Experience
My group was all local to Pittsburgh and just needed somewhere in the city to stay after some dinners/brunch for my sister’s bachelorette. We loved the decor and the location so much! Brandon was extremely responsive with any issues we may have had and gave us heads up on construction around the area (which didn’t bother us over the weekend)Thank you so much for letting us stay at your place!

Southside Oasis
Came to the Iron/Steel city for a show and this place was a great option. Lots of space for us to rest and relax, large, well-stocked kitchen with a grocery store less than a block away!
Loved the garage door to the back patio, plenty of bathrooms, showers and space to spread out.
Parking was easy. Close to the South Side bike path/park, and just a few minutes from Carson street with pubs/food and 10-15 from the riverfront and event space!
Host was communicative and attentive; although we didn’t need anything during our stay, we know they would have been quick to respond.
If something ever brought us back to Pitt, we would return. 💯💯💯

Amazing place to stay in Pittsburgh!
We visited Pittsburgh for our spring break and after looking at both hotels and other VRBO listings decided that this place would work for us. It did - above and beyond! Our teenaged boys were thrilled THIRLLED that they could not only have their own beds but bedrooms. We loved that we could make a few meals on our own (did I mention that we were feeding 2 teenaged boys??), enjoy some Iron City beer around the fire pit during the beautiful nights and the price of it all. It was so close and convenient to everything that we wanted to do. We walked to Carson St several times to and had some great meals there. It was quiet, comfortable and had everything promised in the listing plus more! Thanks so much for an excellent stay.

Really great place and location!
We were a group of 4 visiting for a fun weekend. The neighborhood had everything we needed within walking distance. Bonfire, Carmella's and Emiliano's were all really good meals And since the weather was nice (for December) we ended up walking across the river into downtown and Point State park too. Everything about the home was very clean and has been nicely updated with great decor. Beds were super comfortable, sheets were super soft, and there were plenty of towels for our group. Definitely recommend this beautiful home and neighborhood!
