A Year of Growth and Gratitude at Stay In Ohiopyle
This past year has been an exciting journey of growth, improvements, and accomplishments at Stay In Ohiopyle. I’m proud to say that, wherever possible, we implemented nearly every suggestion our guests shared. While we couldn’t move walls or doors, we did everything else humanly possible and then some. The list of upgrades is long and ongoing, with even more improvements planned between guest stays and after the season ends.
One of the most challenging projects was updating our furniture, especially the new sofas and sofa beds. Thanks to the supply chain, the wait was longer than expected, seven months! But the wait was worth it, and now the units feel fresh, welcoming, and stylish. From replacing that first door knob back in April 2021 to completing over 100 projects since then, I’m amazed at how much has been accomplished. These cabins have truly become my pride and joy.
Removing old furniture and decor was no small task—over five vanloads of dated pieces made their way out of Ohiopyle, stacked so high in my garage it could only be appreciated in person. I think a yard sale is definitely in my future!
This journey wouldn’t have been possible without my incredible support system. Thank you to Carol, whose encouragement, guidance, and gentle (and sometimes not-so-gentle!) nudges kept me on track. To Kim, my long-distance friend whose advice I can’t imagine living without. To Greg, for answering all my “Ask Greg” questions, making plumbing, electrical, and construction challenges far easier. To Kevin, who stepped in exactly when needed. And finally, to Karly and Cole, this is all for you—my heart and energy go into making Stay In Ohiopyle something truly special.
Of course, it hasn’t all been easy. Some projects were frustrating, like the cracked bathtub that required moving the drain. After careful planning, a plumber’s guidance, and some elbow grease, the tub was replaced, the floor repaired, and the trim finished—all to create a seamless, beautiful result.
But some of the simplest changes made the biggest difference. All-new lighting throughout the cabins inside and out. Lamps to ceiling fans and wall fixtures completely transformed each space, making them brighter, cozier, and more inviting for every guest.
I am deeply grateful to our guests, whose thoughtful suggestions guided these improvements. Every change we make is done with your comfort, enjoyment, and experience in mind.
I feel truly blessed and am beyond excited to see what the future holds for Stay In Ohiopyle. Here’s to more adventures, improvements, and memories for all who visit this special place.
