Magical Family Thanksgiving!

We’ve been renting a house in the Seven Springs area for 6-7 years now and this by far was our most favorite. It was the perfect size for us overall. It has an amazing fireplace that made our entire experience more cozy and warm. The layout is great for groups to be watching football, chatting in the kitchen or relaxing in the fireplace room. Great kitchen for cooking. Russ could not have been more accommodating and we loved the location and its proximity to everywhere.

Nonprofit Retreat Weekend

Our group had a wonderful stay at Legends Woodland Lodge. Russ was great to work with and the pictures don’t do the property justice. We had a group of individuals for our nonprofit who had not met until this weekend. The space and layout proved to be welcoming for everyone and the ability to be inside and outside all weekend for programming was wonderful. Property was also easy to get to and also close to shops if we needed anything. We would definitely stay here again!

Fabulous Location for a Family Weekend!

Our family was in town for a wedding and this beautiful home was the perfect gathering place. The home is massive, clean, well-apportioned, and in an absolutely beautiful property. There is a children’s play room, swingset, and lawn to run around. Our favorite part was the large porch where we spent most majority of our mornings and evenings enjoying time together. Although the weather was perfect to sit outside, had it been inclimate, there is a very large family room that would comfortably sit 20 people around the rustic stone fireplace. Highly recommend.

5 Stars - Perfect Lodge for Our Family Reunion!

We recently stayed at this lodge for a long weekend for our family reunion, and it was absolutely perfect! The space was spacious and comfortable, with enough room for everyone to spread out and relax. My family couldn't stop commenting on how cute and cozy the lodge was, and we especially appreciated the ample number of bathrooms—such a plus when you have a large group! The evenings were a highlight for us, as we gathered around the fire pit to make s'mores. It was a special time for the whole family, and the kids had a blast. Speaking of the kids, they loved playing on the swing sets and running around in the front yard. It was such a joy to watch them having so much fun. We also spent a lot of time on the front porch, soaking in the peaceful surroundings. It was the perfect spot to start the day with a cup of coffee or unwind in the evening. Overall, this lodge exceeded our expectations and made our family reunion truly memorable.

Family Reunion

We had a great time at the house for a family reunion of close to 20 people. The house was spacious, bedrooms and bathrooms for all, landscaping was beautiful, and kitchen and dining allowed for easy access for all. We enjoyed drinking coffee on the great front porch, shooting hoops in the driveway, playing whiffle ball in the yard, roasting smores at the Firepit, and taking family portraits on the picturesque grounds. Russ was very helpful and attentive to every detail. Would love to come back soon!

Nice Place

Had a great time with all my friends here. Very secluded so hard to get to and no cell service but very large and can house a large group comfortably. Only problem was getting a load of passive aggressive texts from the owner because we didn’t empty the bathroom trashes and missed a can during cleanup. Apparently that’s not covered in $400 cleaning fee lol. Either way, made a lot of great memories at this place.

Huge House and Property

House is great for a big crowd. Most of the bedrooms have their own attached bathrooms, which is very convenient. Lots of room to spread out. The front porch and fire pit are the best!! Such great spots to hang out with friends/family. The hosts have thought of everything to make staying there very enjoyable. They live on the property as well and were immediately available for any questions or concerns that we had. Had a great family reunion!

A perfect family reunion

Our three-generation family group had an amazing stay at this property. We gathered around memorable meals in the well-stocked gourmet kitchen, made s'mores and told stories around the fire pit, and enjoyed hiking and water fun in the local area. Thanks to the excellent host, check in was efficient and simple. The instructions for everything were clear, and Russ instantly answered a few questions that came up. Four families traveled to celebrate my parents' 55th wedding anniversary. This house was the perfect location and we loved the library, the ample bedrooms and bathrooms, the airy great room. We appreciated Russ's tips for local shopping, sights to see, and we loved every minute of our stay. Thanks for a memorable time!

Wonderful Stay with Extended Family

Our weekend at Legends Woodland Lodge was exactly what we were looking for to celebrate and enjoy the 50th Anniversary of our parents! We had 10 adults and 12 children and everyone fit comfortably and had a lot of space to move around and relax. Outdoor yard space is abundant as well. The front porch was our favorite location! The kitchen is large and well stocked and there are two refrigerators, so we had more than enough room to store all the food for our large group. Our time there was one of the best family trips we've every had, and we would definitely consider staying again as it fit all of our needs so well!

Professional Development Retreat for Montessori Teachers

Our small school, Western PA Montessori School, was looking for a place for a professional development retreat. This lodge was absolutely beautiful and met our needs perfectly! Russell was responsive with our many questions and also provided additional folding chairs and a large screen to help ensure that our weekend was a success. We hope to return with even more staff for our biennial retreat!

Beautiful house but hard pass

First off want to say that the house is beautiful and we have stayed here twice. Our most recent was in Jan of 2024. We had a great stay with a couple of really big issues. Safety: 3 exterior doors do not lock and that is really concerning if you have children. The owner: He seemed like nice enough guy the first year we rented it but this last year really showed his true colors. Apparently because we didn't empty the small trash cans in the bedrooms before we left and he found some m and m's on the floor in one of the kids bedrooms ( which violates his food in the bedroom policy) he wanted to charge us additional $300cleaning fee. We usually do a walk through before we leave but the room was in the basement and we forgot to check it. Would also like to add we take pride on how we treat ours and others property. The other reason he thought we should pay more is because we moved furniture, even though we moved it back before we left. He said he could tell it was moved. The reason we moved it was to put it in front of the doors that didn't lock and we were nervous about the small children and the bad snow storm that came through during our stay. VRBO: VRBO said that they were in the process of canceling his listing due to all the complaints guests have had for these exact same reasons. We spent another couple weeks fighting to get our $300 dollars back. It's been a lot of trouble. HOTTUB and DRYER- listing said hot-tub(No hot tub) Listing said dryer(No dryer)

Weekend at Legends

Our weekend at “Legends” was absolutely fantastic. The house is gigantic, with 9 bedrooms that provided plenty of space for my three kids, 8 grandkids, 3 great-grandkids and assorted husbands, wives and significant others. The décor was beautifully rustic with several lighted Christmas trees in various areas. The large kitchen had everything we could possibly need. The grounds were spacious and had two swingsets and a treehouse that the little guys loved as well as a log swing for me. There was a firepit with abundant chairs and we all sat around it at night. When we rent the property next year we will bring banana boats and S-mores. The Great Room with its 12 foot Christmas tree had plenty of couches and chairs for all of us to congregate in the evening and play Battle of the Sexes. The front porch had wonderfully comfortable chairs and I loved just sitting there drinking my morning coffee. This was our family skiing weekend at 7Springs which is only 15 minutes away. Unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate and they didn’t have much snow so skiing was a bust, but we found plenty to do at the property. The house sits on a slight hill, so if we have snow next year the little kids can sled down the front yard slope. Our host, Russell Peters was extremely gracious and gave us a complete tour of the house and its facilities. When we were packing up to leave, my 5 yr. old great granddaughter said she wanted to come back every year. We all agreed!!

Another Great Trip

Another great trip in the books. Our friend group goes to this home each year. Half of us ski while the other half enjoys the home. This hope is perfect for large groups that love games and reading. The kitchen and living rooms serve as spaces where we can easily socialize. We cook each meal at this home, and it is nice to have such a well equipped space.

Great property for extended family

This is our second Christmas stay at this property. The owners decorate to make it very festive and delightful. The teenagers in our group enjoy the nearby skiing. The kitchen is set up well for socializing, with the sofa and the beverage bar. We made good use of the two ovens and industrial stove. The many bedrooms and bathrooms make it work for family groups and couples. This is an ideal setup for our extended family.
