Rooms were clean, Private bath. Shared kitchen and living room which made for great company and the meeting of new friends. Met one couple at 7pm and chatted until after midnight. Not much in area for restaurants but you have use of the kitchen to reheat, cook or store food. Beautiful river on one side and the train line on the other. Ear plugs provided if you don't like the sounds of trains or you can watch the 103 cars go by. An interesting find with easy access after property provided breakfast to Falling Water.

Love this setting! We only stayed one night before going to Fallingwater the next day, but this setting was so beautiful. The town is cute as well, and we enjoyed the pints and provisions restaurant down the road. We want to come back!

Fabulous property with unique decor. The owners have taken extra care regarding every detail. The accommodations were immaculate with extra pottery touches made by the owner. The large property is right on the river with firepits and chairs to sit and watch the river. Many birds and chipmunks around. The owner even helped me change my flat tire!

My wife described it perfectly as home away from home. When traveling with 5 kids, it is hard to find space that accommodates us all. This place did it. The snow, trains, and peaceful atmosphere will bring us back.

Hotels.com listed the Riverside Chalet as including breakfast, but it did not, so verify details directly. Some of the family-owned properties have breakfast included. We were pleasantly surprised that our unit was listed as 1-bedroom/1-bath with a pullout sofa, but was actually 2 full bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a pullout sofa. The chalet has a fully stocked kitchen with coffee, tea, spices, cookware, dishes, and silverware, but you absolutely need to pack food or buy groceries 1–2 hours before arriving because the property is beautifully remote. Firewood is available for purchase on-site. This is a stunning, peaceful place near Fallingwater, perfect for unwinding, writing, an extended family getaway, or even a honeymoon. It sits right by the Youghiogheny River, so bring folding chairs to enjoy the water. We heard about four trains in 18 hours, but it did not bother us. The owner was very accommodating, and there are other rentals on the property for larger groups. I only wish we had booked a full week.

Very clean and well maintained beautiful private property on the riverbank. Next to the train tracks but earplugs were provided and the loft was well insulated for the kiddos. Breakfast was good, coffee was good. Right next to the mid-Yough launch point for kayaking as well. Great experience!

It is well-run by friendly and accessible hosts, ready to see to your every need. It is set in a relaxing, natural location with a small river running by (and an occasional train). It is very close to Fallingwater and Kentuck Knob (Frank Lloyd Wright designed homes) as well as cycling and kayaking options. You should choose Paddler's Retreat for these reasons. Dining and shopping options are very limited.

Off the beaten path

This B&B is in a lovely setting. I chose it for its location near Falling Water and Kentuck Knob. The owner/host was very helpful. Room was very quiet even though a freight train passes by during the night. Great breakfast. I would hilghly recommend.
