Welcome to Rivers and Steel City Homes

Well-appointed house with fun décor in great location (5 minutes to zoo, 10 minutes to downtown). Steps to 2nd floor (main level) and 3rd floor (huge master bedroom) were steep and narrow but serviceable. AC struggled to keep 3rd floor cool during heat wave. Dishwasher door wouldn't fully open (hits refrigerator). Bathrooms are spacious, but lack bar or rack for bath towels. On street parking was readily available.

We loved our stay at Michael’s home in Squirrel Hill! My family visited with our 2 young children and my elderly dad. The location was perfect, walking distance to Frick Park where the blue slide is, close to Murray Ave with lots of shops and restaurants, & close proximity to other areas of the city. The house was roomy (but important to note that the stairs were very steep especially going up to the 3rd floor, and one of the railings was loose), the beds and pillows were very comfortable, and the kitchen and bathrooms were stocked with essentials. They provided us with a pack n play, high chair and baby gates for our 1 yr old, very helpful and convenient! The only issue we had was with the front door lock keypad. Michael sent a team member out to try to fix it but unfortunately it was broken and needs to be replaced. It wasn’t a big deal to us as we were able to get inside from the back door, just a small inconvenience. We loved our stay and miss Pittsburgh already! Thank you Michael!

We are repeat visitors. We chose to stay at Michael's place again because it was clean and comfortable. This space has everything we need for our small child. It makes it so much easier to travel as we don't have to bring as many things. The area is good. It's very easy to access the freeway to get around.

Michael was very clear about expectations, clearly listed and provided great amenities on the property and provided listings of many outside entertainment options. The house was clean,beautifully decorated and contained many items in the kitchen and bathrooms that made our stay comfortable and felt like home. An especially nice surprise was an elaborate play kitchen, and many toys scattered throughout the house! Our family arrived in staggered intervals,but finding and entering the house was easy and stress free. We were there to celebrate our daughter's wedding,so we appreciated the space to both get ready for the wedding, as well as to decompress afterwards. Every event connected to the big day was only a 15 minute drive from the house. Sadly, we never got to try out the hot tub, but maybe another gathering of our new family will allow us to stay at the property again. Thank you Michael! We had a great stay!

The location was great for what we needed and had planned! We walked to PNC park for a baseball game and it was about 15 minutes. We also walked up the street to Randy Land which is a hidden gem in Pitt! There was a great park 2 blocks away, great coffee shops and a super relaxed vibe!

Everything was exactly as advertised. Clean, well furnished, and close to downtown. As was suggested, on street parking was directly in front, making unpacking and packing the car a breeze. Michael was immediately responsive to a question we had upon arriving and made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Would definitely recommend, thank you!

We visited for a conference. Everything was a quick uber or Lyft away. Even in heavy traffic it only took around 20 minutes to navigate downtown with a baseball game ! I can’t say enough about how nice and responsive Michael was anytime I reached out. Will stay here again if we are in the Pittsburgh area.

Michael’s home was beautifully decorated with a touch of modern to complement this spacious and comfortable mansion. Everything was perfect, large rooms with enough space for our family to spread out! Backyard has clean and functioning hot tub and swing set for children, fire pit, large dining table and lights for night time relaxing. Our family loved this space and look forward to staying again. Michael was very responsive and took care to make sure we had everything we needed!

Really enjoyed my stay here. The place was clean, cozy, and well-equipped with everything I needed. It was easy to find and convenient to get in and out. The location made it simple to explore the area, and the overall experience was smooth and hassle-free. Great communication from the host as well. Would definitely stay again!

Adorable & cozy garden unit! My husband and I would definitely stay here again! Great location and super cute neighborhood! Michael was very responsive and a wonderful host! Highly recommend staying here!!!
