Modern, spacious Loft with River View just off GAP trail

The Casselman River Loft is located in the town of Confluence nestled in the Laurel Highlands Mountains. The Loft is on the 2nd floor of the former Confluence High School building. The Loft is located near the center of the town along the Casselman River and just off the GAP bike trail.

The loft is entirely private but the rest of the building is occupied by Immersion Research, an outdoor gear company. Operations include sewing, light manufacturing, shipping, warehousing, offices, and a retail shop.

The Loft is brand new (finished early 2022) has huge windows, modern decor and is very spacious. Along with the river view, you can also see the old railroad bridge that now hosts the GAP bike trail. The trail access is a minute or two out the door.

The loft can accommodate up to 8 people. There are 2 bedrooms. One bedroom with a king size bed with full ensuite bathroom. The other bedroom has 2 queen beds and a full bath right outside the door. There is a comfortable queen size futon in the main living area.

The loft has an open floor plan in the kitchen/living/dining area. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you'll need. There is a smart TV and high speed, wireless internet. Verizon/Sprint/AT&T cell phones work well from the house. The house has central A/C. All linens and towels are provided. With 4 distinct seasons, the Loft is available year round.

Make a day swimming and boating at the Yough Lake just around the corner. Take a break from your ride through from DC to Pittsburgh on the bike trail or spend the day biking shorter routes in either direction. Kayak or pick up a raft trip in nearby Ohiopyle. Make this the perfect retreat for trips to the 2 Frank Lloyd Wright homes: Fallingwater and Kentuck Knob. We are centrally located to the ski resorts (Wisp, Seven Springs & Hidden Valley).

Whether you are looking for a romantic getaway, a family planning the ultimate recreational vacation or old friends looking for a quiet retreat our home is the perfect setting. Come back year after year and explore the wonders of the Laurel Highlands.

The door you may see in some photos is for a future deck. The door is dead bolt locked and can not be opened until the deck is complete.

Please note that access to the Loft requires climbing stairs. Lots of stairs!

Please also note that there is a security camera/motion detection light mounted over the front door that we use to monitor when the space is vacant.

Castleman Loft
This property is amazing! The best VRBO I have stayed at. The loft is spacious, very clean, and the location and view of the river makes it the perfect place. It is furnished head to toe with everything you could need while traveling. The modern decor and coziness of the place tops it off to make for a wonderful stay.

Pleasant stay
We found the Loft to be much nicer than expected. It's extremely clean, well maintained and has everything that could have been needed. The coffee was a bonus. We hope to be able to stay there again when we return to the Confluence area.

Great weekend away
What a great weekend away. We had wonderful weather, but enjoyed our time inside as much as we did out - as the space was incredibly comfortable. Also, the loft is equipped with all of the essentials.

Amazing stay at the Casselman River Loft
Kids described loft as very luxurious. Great river view and lots of space. Great lighting and air conditioning, crazy to think that it used to be an old chool house. Very convenient location for a variety of outdoor adventures. Highly recommend a stay here.

The 808 Loft on the river.
We stayed at the Loft and would rate it five stars. The loft if perfectly located in confluence and we couldn’t ask for more. We rode the trial to Ohiopyle and had a great day sitting by the river. The whole process was super smooth and Kara was so helpful. We will recommend the loft to others and would stay again if visiting Confluence.

Fall getaway
Newly renovated and modern loft in the heart of Confluence . Location is Close to Ohiopyle , Fallingwater , Kentucky Knob, Farmington, Maryland and WV. Kitchen well appointed. Having a washer dryer was a nice bonus. There a lot of stairs, we needed the cardio ;) Ate at Mitches fuel and food our 1st had nice pizzas ,salad and burgers. Try to get reservations at the Rivers Edge Cafe, food & service are excellent. Highly recommend staying at Casselman River Loft. Host was responsive to our questions.

Hidden gem
Great place to stay . Three of us stayed on a GAP bike ride. Close to trail and excellent loft. You don’t expect it from the out side. It is part of an old High School. Great views of the river.

returning and loving it
We stayed in the loft in 2022 and came back again this year! Our family loves it! Confluence is a nice small town with several great places to eat (Lucky Dog Cafe, River's Edge Cafe), a small supermarket/grocery store, easy access to the scenic GAP bike trail and a short drive to Deep Creek Lake, Fallingwater and Ohiopyle. Thank you for hosting us and making this a great vacation place for many wonderful memories! Looking forward to coming back again!

lovely time in Confluence
This is a nicely appointed space with extra large chef's kitchen and common areas. The bedrooms were very large and the bathrooms updated with walk in showers. You do need to be able to handle stairs to reach the unit. Great place to hang out next to the river with close access to the GAP rail trail and rafting adventures on the Yough.

Convenient to bike on the GAP trail
My spouse & I, brother and sister—in-law enjoyed biking and hiking in the area end of September with leaves starting to turn. Visited Fallingwater and Kentuck Knob. Well-equipped kitchen with sharp knives and good cutting board and lots of counter space. Very clean and spacious rooms. The coffee nerds in our group loved the Ohiopyle coffee beans and the Cuisinart coffee maker with the rainforest drip. Streamed movies in the evening. Good Wifi.

Cool loft space with awesome view!
Kara has done an amazing job with this funky space in Confluence! We were unknowingly visiting just before the tourist season, which seems to start May 1, and therefore did not have many options for food and drink in town. Good thing the kitchen is equipped and the grocery store good, because we were able to cook breakfasts and one dinner ourselves. We did have a great time visiting the Wright houses, Fort Necessity (we love NPS sites), and doing some cool hikes near Ohiopyle. We hope to return sometime when more things are open to do some rafting and biking on the GAP. We will definitely stay in one of Kara's rentals when we do! Hopefully the Lucky Dog will be open next time!

The 808 Loft.
We stayed at the Loft over the 2023 Labor Day weekend and we had a great visit. First off the communication with the owner was fast, easy, and spot on. The Loft was exactly as described and the pictures don’t do it justice. It was much larger than expected and very open. The rental was well equipped and had everything we needed for an enjoyable vacation. The location couldn’t have been better. It was just across the bridge from the bike trail with easy access to the Yough river. We were fortunate enough to see three Eagles on our visit with one flying up the Casselman river right behind the loft. We would definitely recommend the Loft to our friends and we will hopefully get to return ourselves. Thanks for a great trip!

This is our third stay at the loft and we can’t say enough good things about the place and Kara from the Yough Treehouse. The location is perfect for everything. As far as the loft, it’s the perfect place for us. It’s clean, spacious, and has everything you need to make for a great weekend. We would definitely recommend it and can’t wait to stay again.
