Great location for our activities with family at Mingo Creek Park! The house is historic from the Victorian age and is full of character and charm. We found it to have plenty of room and very comfortable. The amenities are great for a small group or family and it has just enough modern upgrades while maintaining it's historical nature. You can find nice restaurants nearby like Lock 4 on the Monongahela River.

Hi Roe, Thank you so much for the wonderful review! I'm thrilled to hear that the house provided a comfortable, spacious home base for your family's activities at Mingo Creek Park. It's great to know you appreciated the Victorian character and the balance of modern upgrades we've worked hard to maintain. I also appreciate you mentioning Lock 4—it’s definitely a local favorite for dining by the river! You were fantastic guests, and we would love to welcome you and your family back to the Blue Peacock House anytime. Best regards, Andres

We had such a wonderful stay at this beautiful old Victorian! The home was absolutely charming—full of character but also incredibly clean and well kept.The location was perfect, just a short drive to the parks and close enough to town for a quick food run, which made everything super convenient.They really thought of the little things too—plenty of towels and even games to enjoy, which made it feel extra welcoming and comfortable.We truly loved our stay and would absolutely come back again!

Hi Freddie! Thank you so much for such a wonderful review. I’m thrilled to hear you enjoyed the character of our Victorian home and found everything clean and comfortable.

Great for families!

We were coming into the area to go to Kennywood with family and friends and this house was perfect with 4 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. Super cute!! Would absolutely stay again should we find ourselves in that area. If you’re staying for more than a couple of days, you might want to get paper plates and plastic ware as there is no dishwasher. Andres was very accommodating and had great communication.

Surprise Birthday party in Monongahela

My husband's family is from Monogahela and we had an 85th birthday celebration for my mother-in-law. It was a wonderful home to stay in. Very clean and loved the decorations. The house is huge! Andres was so nice to work with. Very prompt with any questions. Only stayed one night. Would have been happy to stay a week. Thank you for sharing your home!

This comfortable, clean, eclectic and welcoming historic home worked well as a family space for our gathering of local and dispersed family of 5 adults and an active 3-year old. House has a/c, thankfully! Kitchen is decently stocked with plates/utensils/etc and seats six. Stove is gas if that helps, and the coffee pot is drip, and easy to use. Beds are comfortable! Plenty of living room seating, and if you need it, TV gets Bluey and there’s lots of dancing area, so that’s helpful!Eat-n-Park and their Smiley cookies are a few blocks away for any meal, and Fox’s pizza delivers. Grocery store is a couple of blocks away, and downtown Mon City has a variety of shops, coffee, bakery, etc.Monongahela’s aquatorium gives a ‘something different’ place, for concerts, river and train watching. Excellent playgrounds, walking/running/biking trails and picnicking can be had at Mingo Creek county park on 136 a few miles away, our favorite place. And you’re only 25 miles from Pittsburgh. Best of all, prompt and very helpful communications from/with the owner, and super easy check-out procedure! Thanks, Andres! We’ll likely be back!

Hi Jayne, Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful review—it truly made my day! I'm thrilled to hear that the home worked well for your family gathering and that everyone, including your energetic 3-year-old, felt comfortable and welcome. I appreciate you highlighting the little details—from the kitchen setup and cozy beds to the dancing space and Bluey access! It's wonderful to know that local spots like Eat'n Park, Fox's Pizza, and Mingo Creek Park have been added to your experience. You painted such a vivid picture of your stay, and I'm grateful for your words. It was a pleasure hosting you, and I'm so glad the check-in and communication felt smooth. I'd be honored to welcome you back anytime! Warm regards, Andres
