Wonderful stay
We truly enjoyed our holiday week at the house. The location is great, close to shops and activities. We found a new favorite game from their supplied games. The hosts are very responsive, we had one minor issue with a damaged pot and they had a new full set delivered samw day. We would definitely stay again!

The Gem house was wonderful! We were in town for our daughters graduation from Mercyhurst University, so the location was perfect! Enjoyed the back porch both in the morning and at night! The beds were so comfortable and we loved the comfy blankets! Was a wonderful home away from home!

Short stay with family
This is a cute place in a convenient location. The zoo is very close and the amusement park is a short drive. The back porch offered a great place for us to relax and play games at night. Having Netflix was also really nice. We spent a few hours watching a movie and relaxing together. We would definitely recommend this home.

Senior trip!
Amazing time! Lots of board games and campfires. Appliances were all very functional and easy to use. Some doorknobs were a bit goofy, but other than that it was an amazing trip. Would rent again!!

Long Weekend Trip
Our stay at the Gem House was great. My friends & I were back in town for a college friends wedding. We are Mercyhurst alumni so it was a great location for a visit & easy access to downtown where the wedding was. The house had everything needed for a long weekend, the beds were comfortable & the backyard was perfect for a bonfire at night. We would recommend to others & would stay there again if back in town.

Definitely was a little gem!
Just got back from a 2 days stay with a small group of girls. The house was great for a little shopping…close to peach street shopping..and some relaxing with good friends. The house was clean, so many extra blankets and pillows. There was also everything that you needed like spices, TP, garbage bags, kleenex…a lot of little things ..and a lovely bowl of snacks waiting for us upon arrival…nice touch!. Thank you for hosting us and we will def book again.

Cute little house!
This worked well for our family of 6! We had enough space and kids enjoyed the games. I understand it was an old house but I was a little worried about all of the extension cords being a fire hazard. Owners communicated well! Easy to access different areas of the city. Kitchen was great!

Perfect Getaway
Our stay at the Gem House was perfect! Communication with the owner Glee gave us all the necessary information for arrival and she had a great House Manual for any forgotten questions! I loved the consideration of her guest's needs while at the house and every amenity a traveler could ask for was furnished at the house. Plus, we loved the arrival gifts, including local treats! Great location and fun backyard! Thanks again!

Short but sweet
It was rather quick since we had a reason why we were there. Presque Isle half marathon was Sunday. The house was very welcoming. We made dinner, cleaned up our mess and went to bed. We were up at 5am, ran our race and left at 11. The place made being there very nice
