~When you stay at Whimsy's Knoll,
you'll be right in the heart of all that
the beautiful Laurel Highlands have to
offer.
~  
For those with unique architecture on their
mind, no where else in the world will you
find the likes of
Fallingwater, Frank Lloyd
Wright's residential masterpiece.  Also close
by is another Wright work,  
Kentuck Knob,
perched overlooking the beautiful
Youghiogheny River Gorge.  

Another architectural beauty is the Grand
Dame of Uniontown,
The State Theatre.  
Built in 1922 and lovingly reconstructed, The
State Theatre offers musicals, plays, and
movies.
 

Visit our Specials page for an amazing offer
we have from The State Theatre, you won't
believe it until you see it (The State Theatre
and our offer)!
~History buffs  love this part of the Laurel
Highlands!
~  
Just up the street from the house is Jumonville Glen, where
the first shots were fired in the French and Indian War.
Only a few miles away on Route 40 is
Fort Necessity and
Braddock's Grave
.
If you would rather be outdoors,
you've found yourself in the right
place
.  
Down the road is
Ohiopyle State
Park.  There you will find anything
from world class
white water rafting,
hiking, bike trails, and much more.  
We are in love with Ohiopyle, you will
be too when you experience it!

Close by is
The Great Allegheny
Passage. It provides a 334 mile
motor-free route from Pittsburgh to
Washington, DC.  

If you like to hang out in dark,
enclosed places, then the
Laurel
Caverns are for you.  It is the
largest cave system in Pennsylvania.  
Only half a mile from our front door is
The Cross of Christ at Jumonville
Christian Camp and Retreat
Center. As stated on the plaque, on a
clear day you can see 7 counties, 3
states and 50 miles.  It is 60 feet tall on
an 8 foot pedestal and can be seen from
miles around, especially at night.  

The view from the top, called Dunbar's
Knob, is definitely worth the hike to the
top. Don't forget your camera!

amongst the grape vines.
