January Birthday Weekend

Our family had a great time at Blue Jay’s Nest in January. The home was beautifully decorated and very clean. The location was a perfect for ski days at Hidden Valley and Seven Springs. The property manager quickly responded to all of our questions. I highly recommend Blue Jay’s Nest.

Space to Play

We were in town for a memorial service and turned the trip into a mini vacation after finding this place. It was near tons of hiking and parks including lakes and rivers to swim in. 30min or less in any direction we found ourselves in open spaces or small towns. The grounds on the property were perfect to spend all day outside and the house offered comfort to wind down. Host was easy to reach, very helpful and accommodating.

Hidden Paradise

The Blue Jay’s Nest exceeded any and all expectations we had coming into this trip. The house was immaculate and had every amenity we could wish for. We were particularly impressed with the little details in the house that were thought of for us- for example, shampoo, conditioner, and soap in every bathroom, plenty of toilet paper, dish soap, paper towels, toys for the kids, night lights, etc. we are so grateful for the use of your home, and we hope to make this an annual vacation for our family!

Spacious Family Getaway

This was a perfect family get away location for all things in Laurel Highlands. Each family had plenty of space with four bedrooms and three bathrooms. The yard is spectacular for children and dogs. It has a well equipped kitchen and we loved the vibe of the home.
