Serenity Falls is a turn of the century farm house that has been completely remodeled and updated and is now a guesthouse. The focal point inside of our mountain home is a 22 foot sunken Great room with a large eight foot Seven Springs style stone log burning fireplace with key starter for propane to help start the fire!!! The brand new black walnut wood furniture dining room overlooks the great room and is adjacent to the spacious country kitchen with brand new hickory cabinets and new countertops. Our Mountain home is very peaceful and serene whether it is spring, summer, fall or winter.
The side and back decks are a great place to relax and enjoy cook-outs with friends and family. We also have exterior speakers for our stereo system to enjoy music on the deck or by the fire ring when the children are roasting marshmallows or making s'mores. A new addition to the backyard landscape is a 34 foot two sided waterfall with eleven falls on one side and nine falls on the other. This is very soothing and serene.
Another addition to our mountain landscape is a very relaxing arbor, a perfect location to watch the sunset and get a great view of the 34 foot waterfall. Plants have been added to attract butterflies and hummingbirds.Take a walk to the top of the hill and experience some fantastic views of the countryside. You may even see some deer if you go at the right time!!
Winter takes on a completely different look and feel. Sit and relax in front of a roaring fire after a long day of skiing, snowboarding or tubing and watch the snow fall through 6 large windows in the great room.

About Sandy Welch
I grew up in the Pittsburgh area and loved the mountains. My husband and I had long careers with ATT. Close to retirement we decided to fulfill our dream of a home in the mountains of Pa. We just love our mountain home.
Sandy Welch purchased this chateau / country house in 1993
Why Sandy Welch chose Laurel Highlands
This home is centrally located to many activities and the mountain views are awesome!!! We are situated on 24 acres with a plateau of 5 acres that has a view that is truly amazing. We had a challenge of remodeling the home and adding an additional great room with a fireplace and truly love it! The home was built in 1860.
What makes this chateau / country house unique
We are in the middle of so many activities. Ski, snowboard,horseback riding,golf, swimming,canoe, amusement parks,antique shopping and so much more. We are so happy to have this home for the past 25 years. The property is wonderful for children and adults. We have a fire ring for s'mores and to gather around and relax. You can play baseball, volleyball, badminton, and we have a horseshoe pit on the property.
Guestbook comments from the owner
Highlights for our family included the cozy fireplace, a couple of runs down the sledding hills, and the friendly fights over who would get to sit on the chaise in the great room. Thanks for making your house available

Excellent service and lovely space
We are visiting scholars and students from Pitt, and rent this lovely house just two days before we arrived. The owner, Sandy, is a very kind, nice and easygoing lady, she gave us prompt response and accept our request immediately. She provided us considerable guidance and directions of how to arrange everything in the house, as well as marvelous hospitality from the local manager. Even though I forgot to leave the keys at the dinning table when we left, she allowed us to mail the keys back! What a wonderful experience! The house is located in a beautiful place with lots of firewoods free to use. The house has a photo album inside, where can find the history of this house, and it is actually more than 160+ old, but in a perfect maintenance and condition just like brand new!! No matter whether you are an outdoor activity lover who wants to enjoy the nature, or families or friends who who want to spend some pleasant time getting together, I strongly recommend you to stay at this superb place.
Wonderful getaway
The property was beautiful and conveniently located to many activities in the area. We loved the waterfall in the back and the comfy lounge chairs. The house was well equipped with everything we needed. The owners were friendly and accommodating.
Perfect - Great value
Very private, nice house on a well maintained property. All the amenities you need are provided. Great back deck w/ grill and nearby fire pit. Easy drive to Seven Springs.
Fabulous Cabin and Amazing Owners
We rented this lovely, peaceful cabin in the mountains to celebrate our son's graduation with our family and friends. The cabin was clean, spacious and had lovely views of the surrounding mountains. Great area to take long walks and hikes. The decks, waterfall and fire pit provided an ideal, relaxing settings for entertaining our guests. The cabin was very clean, spacious and the kitchen was fully equipped to entertain large groups of people. The WiFi was completely reliable and supported our "virtual" offices. In addition to this spectacular setting, the owners are fantastic and are a delight to interact with. We could not have dreamed of a more ideal setting for our family's celebration. We have already begun planning our return to this spectacular cabin and setting.
Beautiful Cabin in Amazing Area
I highly recommend this cabin. Situated in a peaceful area with a nice view, it made for an amazing break from city life. The fire pit in particular was fantastic for the group to have fun and relax at night after hours of hiking in the nearby parks. The interior of the cabin was also very comfortable and cozy. Would certainly come here again.
Great Weekend in the Mountains
The house was great. Our group was a group of friends reuniting from all around. We came from Baltimore, DC and even Richmond. The house was very easy to find and easily accessible. We had a lot of snow while we were there. Skied 7Springs all weekend. The house great location for not being right on the mountain. Sledding hill in the back yard was used alot. Everyone slept comfortably. When there is snow, it is a great place to bring snowshoes and hike back into the property. The house was very clean and everything worked great. Fire place was amazing.
