Wake up to river views, step onto the dock, fire up the BBQ, and spend your days on the water.

☆☆ BEDROOMS ☆☆



The studio is designed to feel open, airy, and surprisingly spacious for a floating retreat. A plush queen bed sits at one end of the room, dressed in crisp white linens and ready for a solid night of sleep after a day on the river. Pittsburgh-themed artwork on the walls gives the space a sense of place, and natural light filters through the windows with views of the marina and surrounding greenery. The open layout means your sleeping area, living space, and kitchenette are all in one easy, comfortable room, which feels intentional and intimate rather than cramped. The mini-split keeps the temperature exactly where you want it, no matter the season.





☆☆ BATHROOMS ☆☆



The bathroom is a genuine standout in a space this size. It features a walk-in shower wrapped floor to ceiling in gorgeous marble-look tile with a large rain showerhead, a sleek white vanity with quartz countertop and matte black fixtures, and a reclaimed wood accent wall that pays tribute to the nautical character of the property. A round porthole-style window above the vanity adds an authentic touch, and on clear days you can glimpse the river right from the sink. The bathroom is stocked with body wash, shampoo, conditioner, and all the essentials you need to get cleaned up before heading out for the evening.





☆☆ KITCHEN & RELAXING AREAS ☆☆



The kitchenette punches well above its weight. A full-size stainless fridge, microwave, electric stovetop burner, and Keurig coffee maker handle everything from morning coffee to a full meal prep. Pots, pans, dishware, silverware, cutlery, a cutting board, a blender, glassware, and a cocktail set are all stocked and ready. Whether you are whipping up breakfast before a morning on the water or mixing drinks at the end of the day, you have what you need without leaving the boat. The high-top dining table for two keeps meals feeling social and relaxed. The living area is anchored by a comfortable grey sofa, a 50-inch flatscreen HD TV, and a pair of nesting coffee tables that give the space a warm, modern feel. A mid-century style credenza adds some character, and Pittsburgh artwork on the walls keeps the vibe local.





☆☆ OUTSIDE SPACE ☆☆



This is where the stay really comes alive. The adjacent dock area is your outdoor living room on the water, covered by a gazebo-style shade structure with string lights, cozy outdoor furniture, and a gas BBQ grill. It is the kind of spot where you crack open a cold drink, watch boats come and go, and feel the current of the Allegheny moving underneath you. A complimentary 20-ft boat slip is included for guests who arrive by boat, and the marina's onsite boat launch makes it easy to get out on the water whenever the mood strikes. Guests who want to head out but do not have their own vessel can rent a pontoon directly from Three Rivers Boat Rental, which operates right at the marina. String lights line the covered walkway along the side of the boat and hanging flower planters add a cheerful touch throughout. Onsite parking at the marina is complimentary and plentiful. The Three Rivers Heritage Trail runs right through Millvale Riverfront Park nearby, connecting you by bike or on foot to the North Shore, PNC Park, the Andy Warhol Museum, and downtown Pittsburgh. Millvale's own walkable neighborhood is a quick trip away, with Grist House Brewing, Pamela's, Jean-Marc Chatellier's French bakery, and the Pittsburgh Food Truck Park all within easy reach. Dogs are welcome (up to 2 pets, 40 lbs or under).
