The Lippincott Cottage (the Cottage, previously known as the Moorhead Cottage) is a large, three-story, wood framed structure in the Queen Anne style. It has both hipped and gabled roofs, dormers, octagonal tower, and porches on both the first and second floors.

The Cottage was constructed in 1887. It is one of 16 cottages built along Lake Conemaugh and associated with the South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club. The club and lake provided a refuge for wealthy Pittsburgh residents until May 31, 1889. On this date, the lake overflowed and, breaking the dam, sent massive amounts of water down the Conemaugh
