THE GLENDORN STORY
During the 1920s, Glendorn was built for the outdoor loving and gregarious Dorn family. It is a 1,280 acre estate that offers luxurious accommodations, fine dining and activities. As a family, they loved recreation, learning, excellent cuisine and a good time. The Dorn family has been going to Glendorn for close to eighty years, spanning 6 generations. Recently Glendorn was purchased by a Pittsburgh businessman who vowed to keep the tradition of "Rustic Luxury" and "Legendary Relaxation" at Glendorn intact and growing for generations to come.
The Dorn family opened Glendorn and its doors to guests in 1995. The great sense of warmth, character, and charm that is experienced on property makes new guests quickly become annual or semi-annual guests. Guests will be seen darting off to Lake Bondieu, or parts of our 3.2 miles of stocked trout stream with fly-rods, or relaxing in the Big House after an unparalleled lunch following a morning hunt of gobbler or natural grouse. Guests enjoy shooting on our expanded skeet and trap facility, and hiking or mountain biking along the 28 miles of trails on property. After a world class dinner, many guests interact in the Billiards room playing pool or a friendly game of cards by the fire.
As Glendorn changed hands, many of the settings have stayed the same, while others are revived and brought back to life. As the horse stables smell of fresh paint and the sounds of galloping feet in the pastures, many guests will revel in horseback riding along Glendorn’s trails, or taking a riding lesson down at the stables all complimentary when you stay on property.
Those who come to Glendorn find the flowing streams and babbling brooks to be relaxing and rejuvenating. Whether it is hiking in the beautiful black cherry, hemlock, maple, and white pine tree forest where it is not rare to spot foxes, deer, bear, or beavers, or enjoying the luxury of looking over Skipper Lake from the porch of John’s cabin, to a picnic at the Forest Cabin Hideout, to an off property drift boat trip down the Allegheny River hosted by some of the best fly fishing guides in North America to go after the big catch with their trusty fly rod. Guests experience a true outdoor paradise of activities that keeps them coming back for years to come.
The winter season has become a wonderland of activities here at Glendorn. Complimentary cross country skiing, snow shoeing, and snowmobiling on property throughout the season, along with complimentary day passes to ski Holimont, the largest private ski resort in the country, just a short twenty five minute drive from our property make Glendorn a winter destination. Many guests are seen just relaxing in front of one of our forty three wood burning fireplaces on property and catching up on that novel they haven’t had time to read.
Every guest leaves Glendorn with wonderful memories to share with friends and loved ones, and a voice in the back of their mind asking "when can I come back to Glendorn."
