First Time at a B&B

This was my husband's and my first time staying at a B&B. Rick greeted us immediately upon arrival and showed us a very clean and quiet room. The beds were comfy and our room had its own air conditioner. A ground level entrance was provided for our use. The property has an outside fire pit and a pond stocked with koi and blue fish. Breakfast was fresh fruit, egg soufflé, toast, sausage, and yogurt. After breakfast, we fed the ducks and the fish by the pond. Based on our experience, we gladly would return.

Love this place! Have now stayed here 2x!

You will be welcomed with a fire in fire pit, soft lights, and s'mores and personal greeting by your host. You will be asked what would you like for breakfast; and it will be there the next morning, with delectable extras.(like baked apples). You will not leave hungry or feeling like you had no sleep. House is very inviting, comfortable, and homey with quilts galore.

Girls Get away

My friend and I met and stayed at this adorable B&B. Very quaint and comfy. All the rooms have their own private baths and beautiful quilts on each bed. Decor is very pretty Would be a wonderful place to go for a retreat to quilt since they hold retreats there The owners go out of their way to tell you about the area and where to go . The area is great for outdoors activity White water rafting, hiking, biking etc. The breakfast is delicious and they accommodate your likes and also very aware of allergies as I have Celiac. Beautiful pond with two friendly ducks Also they have a beautiful area to sit and have a campfire Even though of marshmallows!!! I highly recommend this lovely B&B Can’t wait to go back

It really is like being at home, but without all the work and distractions!

Donna and Rick really do make us feel so special. Our rooms were beautiful, comfortable and cheerful. Rick cooked wonderful breakfasts - melt-in-your-mouth waffles! We were able to sew to our hearts' content without the normal distractions of home. This was our second visit. We will be back!

Bike ride B&B

Donna greeted us and showed us our room without an exhausting check in. Once we were settled, we were shown the grounds. After dinner, we enjoyed snacks by the fire. It was a beautiful evening.

Love this place!

Stayed here on two occasions; greeted by a warm fire & soft lights around a fire pit, and friendly owners. Slept well in a clean, comfortable room, came out next morning to a wonderful, customized breakfast. You come as guests, and leaves as friends; just like their motto states. Place is very homey with homemade quilts on walls & beds; they're beautiful.

Return to Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater

This is our go-to place to stay when visiting Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater and Kentuck Knob properties. About 30 minute drive away, Seams Like Home provides a very comfortable, homey atmosphere, and hospitable hosts. Each room is decorated around a theme, in great condition, and very clean! The open living area with comfortable seating, a pool table, and plenty of space is great for relaxing outside of your room. The property grounds are great for a stroll around the pond or to sit outside with a beverage and snacks and solve the world's problems (or not!). Breakfasts of cook to order omelets or waffles are a treat!

Weekend Getaway

We enjoyed our stay at Seams Like Home. Our only complaint was that our shower attachment leaked and did not work very well. We liked all of the other amenities and enjoyed the quiet, peaceful nature of the property.

Wonderful Stay, Wonderful Host

We were biking the GAP trail and stayed here one night. The host picked us up in town. The rooms were very comfortable. I loved the home-made quilts. The breakfast was delicious. In the morning he drove us back to town to continue on our trip. I would definitely stay again.

Good choice for B&B while biking the GAP Trail

We biked for 2 days and stayed at 3 B&B's. Undoubtedly our best breakfast was at this one--including omelet, fruit, sausage, juice (yogurt available but we didn't try it), and fully accommodating my wife who is vegetarian and allergic to some foods. Since this place is 3 miles from trail head, the shuttle was crucial; the owner expertly loaded our tandem bike on his truck, which had just the right equipment for a smooth and secure ride. Since this was the end of our trip, he also shuttled us to our car the next morning -- an hour drive away over country two-lanes, with his wife doing the navigating with her GPS. The room and facilities were excellent, including our own bathroom with tub and shower, and a sufficiently firm mattress. Bruce & Nancy

Great stop while riding the GAP trail

We spent the night in Connellsville, Pa while riding the GAP trail Seams Like Home is a few miles out of town but Rick picked us and our bikes up. The rooms were great and breakfast was incredible. Rick was informative and gracious. Would definitely stay there again. Highly recommend.

A Relaxed Stop in the PA Woods

We took a mid-stop to break up our trip [NY to IL] and go to Falling Waters. It was a pleasant night stay at Seams. The owners were friendly. The place was clean. We had a complete, home cooked breakfast. The rooms are separated from the owners’ living space and the guests have their own common area for playing pool, watching TV, cooking, etc. The home is nestled in the woods with exotic ducks floating in the pond. All in all, it was quite the restful break that we needed.

Great place to stay while riding the GAP

Our group of 7 had a wonderful stay at Seams Like Home Oct. 1, 2015. We were bicycling the GAP. We were shuttled for free the minute we called up to the B and B. Then we shuttled to and from dinner in Connellsville later. It was nice to be in such a quiet countryside location. The rooms are large and beautifully decorated and very clean. We each had a private bath with a great shower. After dinner, we relaxed in the common room which had TV, computer, pool table. We were able to store our bikes inside securely. After a good night’s sleep, Rick prepared a wonderful hot breakfast, then shuttled us back down to the trail. Friendliest, service, cleanliness were all of the highest quality. Our friend who was driving our gear was able to stay several more hours to do paperwork she needed to do in the common room without feeling rushed to check out. Highly recommend! 55+ years old - Frequently stays at B&Bs

Great anniversary getaway

We had never tried a bed & breakfast before, and we're very, very pleased with the experience. The people we met were so much fun to talk with, and the common room, as well as breakfast together gave us a chance to talk with all of the other couples there- we sat for an hour and a half, just chatting! The owners were great, very accommodating, and the facility was just gorgeous. We will do this again! 55+ years old - Frequently stays at B&Bs

Stay here if you would like to bike the Allegheny trail!

My stay at Seams Like Home was a bit of a miracle. My girlfriend and I had decided to bike as much of the Allegheny trail as possible on very short notice. The decision was made on a Wednesday but most of the planning went into driving to Pittsburgh and preparing our bikes. Since the trail wish very active with bikers over the summer it was hard to find a vacancy at one of the inns along the way. Luckily, Seams Like Home was able to provide a room for at their lovely oasis. What's more is that while biking we became very tired and were not going to be able to make it to our planned destination, but Rick was able to come pick us up and shuttle us back to his bed and breakfast. We were so grateful. R once at the inn Rick provided amazing service. We were free to use the lounge area which came complete with satellite tv, pool table, and much needed comfortable couches after a long day of biking. One thing I noticed is every room had its own bathroom and some even came with a Jacuzzi! The next morning we were punctually served waffles, eggs, fresh fruit, bacon, Orange juice, and coffee to fuel up for our next day of biking. All in all, my girl and I were very happy to have stayed at Seams Like Home and will definitely stay there again if we ever try to bike the trail once more.
