We went to Fallingwater first. We took the extended tour and had made reservations three months prior. The visitor's center has a restaurant, shop and restrooms. It was beautiful and we were told it was designed by the son's partner. Make sure you take the path down to the lower viewing site to see the waterfall and house from down below.
The second day we went to Kentuck Knob. The house is just as interesting as Fallingwater and the view from the grassy area is amazing. Take the path back from the house through the trees to see all of their art installations on the grounds. The visitor center has a shop, ice cream shop (owners ice cream business), and restrooms.

Laurel Highlands is breathtaking and add to the the FLW genius designs and the masterpieces of architecture is documented for all to see. We purchased our tickets seperately and not sure if there is a discount when purchased together. Do upgrade and do the premium tours for both as worth it.
Both homes are unique and what a work of art in the architecture and treasures inside and out of both. The Kentuck Knob was like a private tour as only three of us. How lucky is that. Our tour guide gave us valuable info and answered all of our questions. Very Interesting facts and info that only the tour could provide. Grounds on both properties impeccable. Nature and architecture come together as one.
Falling Water was a rainy day that added to the experience IMO. The water levels were high and being indoors the atmosphere was cozy and warm while the rains pounded the surrounding area. Just breathtakingly amazing.
Been on my bucket list for years and a dream come true it was.
The Ohiopyle area has so much to offer while visiting. Hiking, fishing, rafting and just observing nature. Peaceful and nature abounding in every way.
We booked our trip strictly to view Falling Water and was surprised to find another tour of FLW, Kentuck Knob. Then the beautiful area and scenery was a bonus.

The guidance of our tour leader and driver George and the conversations with him went beyond his duties of a professional guide, but valorizing accurate history knowledge and his personal activities in areas of architecture, historic preservation and urban renewal. All these without being boring or pedantic.

Although we've seen the photos of Fallingwater they do not do it justice; it truly is stunning, inside and out. Kentuck Knob was also glorious. The guides at both properties were great, but tour guide George's knowledge of both Pittsburgh and Fallingwater made this experience beyond anything we expected. His enthusiasm and passion for the city brought its history to life.
