Family Reunions at Mountain Haven

The House Where the Cousins Get the Loft

A 16-guest mountain home where toddlers, teens, and grandparents all find their thing by day — then everyone regroups around one big table at night.

The reunion basecamp

Everyone together. Finally.

The Laurel Highlands were practically built for a multigenerational reunion, and Mountain Haven puts every generation within a short drive of the region's best family days out. Walk to the free community pool for a lazy afternoon, hop the free resort shuttle to the Alpine Slide and mini-golf, then fan out to America's best kids' park at Idlewild & SoakZone, hand-feed kangaroos at Living Treasures just ten minutes away, or splash down Ohiopyle's free natural waterslides. With cousins of every age, you can split the group between toddler-friendly petting zoos and teen-ready cavern crawls, then regroup around one big table each night.

Sixteen-plus guests, four generations, one mountain home

Cousins claim the bunk loft, grown-ups take the bedrooms, and the grandparents get a quiet corner — then the whole family reconvenes around a kitchen and a hot tub sized for the crowd.

Built for big families

A home that fits every generation, toddlers to grandparents

Cousins crash in the bunk loft, grown-ups take the bedrooms, and the grandparents get a quiet corner — with a kitchen and a hot tub big enough to bring the whole reunion back together each evening.

Kids' bunk loft with Xbox & games

A dedicated upper-level loft full of bunks (sleeps 6) with an Xbox, a TV, and a stash of board games — so the cousins pile in together and the grown-ups actually get the bedrooms. It's the heartbeat of every reunion that stays here.

A kitchen that cooks for 16+

A full gourmet kitchen with cookware, dishes, and a granite island sized for the whole family, plus a wet bar for the grown-ups. Big reunion breakfasts, taco nights, and a birthday cake all happen here, not at a restaurant.

Something for every age

A free community pool a short walk from the house (Memorial Day–Labor Day), a free resort shuttle to the Alpine Slide, free natural waterslides at Ohiopyle, animal feeding at Living Treasures, and the hot tub waiting on the deck at the end of the day. Toddlers to teens to grandparents are all covered.

Baby & toddler ready

A Pack ’n Play and a high chair on hand (just ask when you book), a tub for bathing little ones, and a baby gate available — the small things that make traveling with the youngest cousins actually doable.

Family days out

A different adventure for every age, every day

From the world's best kids' park to free natural waterslides and a constant-52° cave for rainy days — split the group by age, then meet back at the house for dinner.

A free shuttle away

A whole day of activities without moving the cars

The best part of a reunion at Seven Springs is how little hassle it takes. Hop the free resort shuttle from Mt. Villas over to the resort core, and the All-Day Adventure Pass bundles 11-plus activities — so a mixed-age group can spend a whole day between the resort pools, the Alpine Slide, mini-golf, and the lake without ever moving the cars. (For everyday swims, the free community pool is a short walk from the house — no pass needed.)

When the weather turns, bowling, the arcade, and the Bear Trap Fun Zone keep everyone busy under cover — just a short shuttle ride from the door, with no scrambling for a Plan B.

  • Resort pools, indoor and out, included with the All-Day Adventure Pass
  • The classic 1,980-foot Alpine Slide and a scenic chairlift ride
  • Mini-golf, 6-lane bowling, and the indoor Bear Trap Fun Zone
  • Rock wall, trampoline, and paddle sports on Tahoe Lake
  • Most of it bundled into one All-Day Adventure Pass

Stay & play

A reunion HQ, not just a place to sleep

The outings are half the trip. Mountain Haven is the other half: a two-story home with a full kitchen, a wet bar, and big screens, so 16+ can cook, gather, and wind down together instead of splitting up across hotel rooms.

Cook a big family breakfast, set the kids loose in the bunk loft, and end the night in the hot tub on the deck — the part guests say “topped it all off.”

  • Kids' bunk loft (sleeps 6) with an Xbox, a TV, and board games for the cousins
  • Full gourmet kitchen with cookware and dishes for 16+ — big family breakfasts and taco nights
  • Private outdoor hot tub on the deck and deck dining for the whole group
  • Pack ’n Play, high chair, and a kid-friendly tub for the youngest travelers
  • Vaulted great room, wet bar, and multiple big-screen TVs for game nights
  • Free community pool a short walk away, plus the Alpine Slide, mini-golf, and bowling a free shuttle ride away

Family reunion FAQs

Do you provide cribs, high chairs, or baby gates?+

We keep a pack-n-play and a high chair on hand for our youngest guests; just let us know your needs when you book so everything is set up before you arrive. We don't keep permanent baby gates installed, so if you're traveling with a crawler, bring a travel gate or ask us and we'll do our best to accommodate. Diaper-changing space and a tub for little ones are available.

How does pool access work, and is there a shuttle?+

The Mt. Villas community pool is a short walk from the house, free for our guests, and open Memorial Day through Labor Day — no pass needed. The resort's own pools (indoor year-round, outdoor plus hot tubs in the warmer months) are separate: those are for hotel guests and All-Day Adventure Pass holders, so plan on Adventure Passes if you want resort pool time along with the Alpine Slide and other resort activities. Mountain Haven sits right on the Highlands Golf Course at Mt. Villas, so you walk to the first tee but ride the free resort shuttle the short distance to the slopes, lodge, and spa — keep your own vehicles for off-site outings like Idlewild and Ohiopyle.

What are the best rainy-day options for the kids?+

Laurel Caverns (40 min) is a perfect rainy-day pick at a constant 52 degrees, with an easy lighted family tour and gem panning. A short free shuttle ride away at the resort core, the indoor Bear Trap Fun Zone, bowling, and arcade keep kids busy under cover (the resort's indoor pool requires a hotel stay or Adventure Pass). Caddie Shak's arcade is another covered option.

Where is the nearest grocery store?+

Highlands Market is less than a mile from the resort’s main gate (about a 3-minute drive) and stocks fresh meats, cheeses, baked goods, specialty groceries, and a cafe for crafted-to-order sandwiches and pizza, plus beer and wine. For a full-size supermarket and bulk reunion shopping, larger grocery stores are about 20-30 minutes out toward Somerset or Donegal.

Which attractions are stroller-friendly for little ones?+

Living Treasures Wild Animal Park (10 min) has flat, stroller-easy paths and is the best bet for toddlers. Idlewild & SoakZone is largely stroller-friendly with paved paths and rental strollers available. Cucumber Falls is a very short walk but the path is natural surface, so a carrier works better than a stroller for the youngest kids.

How are the kids’ sleeping arrangements set up?+

The home sleeps 16-plus and includes a dedicated kids’ bunk loft, so cousins can pile in together while the grown-ups take the bedrooms. Let us know your group’s age mix and we can suggest the best room assignments; we can also provide the pack-n-play for the youngest travelers.
