Beautiful Home. Very clean and well stocked kitchen and bathrooms with everything you need. The beds were so comfortable and our family of 8 had more than enough room. We spent mornings bird watching from the deck rocking chairs and hiked the nearby trails. Host Justin provided timely detailed information to make our stay hassle free & enjoyable

Perfect Family Spot

The Lodge was a perfect fit for our family trip to Lancaster. We loved the bunk room for the kids and the extra room in the back for playing or reading a book. The deck was a nice place to sip coffee in the morning and wine in the evening. The location was great, close to grocery, a short drive to nice restaurants, parks, and Hershy Park. We would stay here again.

Family Vacation

Awesome house. Easy to enter and the kitchen met all our needs. Really like the open floor plan. Funny story; rented a house in Stowe, Vermont two years ago and same setting. Up the long driveway in a wooded area. Open main floor with french doors off the dining and living room overlooking the driveway.

Wonderful spaces for large groups. Very private but within 30-40 minutes of many attractions. House was clean and the AC kept all of the rooms nice and cool.Our family loves to cook and the kitchen was great. We were pleasantly surprised that 3 bedrooms were on the main floor and the upstairs loft bedroom was the best we’ve ever had for the children. Justin was excellent about responding to our questions. When we’re in the area again we’ll definitely want to rent this home.

Excellent site for our adult family group

This site was amazing. It suited our family grouping of six adults extremely well. Each group had their own space and the joint communal space was large enough for group gatherings for meals, watching TV, or playing games. We loved the space and plan to use it in the future if we get back into this area.

We stayed at this property to attend our cousin’s wedding in York. Beautiful house with plenty of room for the 5 adults and 6 kids. We enjoyed the out in the woods feel, but still close to town.

Open concept. Large effective use of bedroom and bathroom spaces. Extra open rooms, decks, porches, and spaces. 8 adults and 2 children never felt cramped or squeezed-could have fit more comfortably. Excellent yard. Supreme privacy yet very close to our wedding venue destination and grocery store, etc.. Clean and supplied with anything you should usually need for an excellent stay.

Nice Family Stay

Stayed here recently for a family get together. We were 3 couples, one teenager and my 80 year old dad. House was great for all of us! Lots of room to spread out, with each piece of the family having their own space to relax. Main kitchen and dining area were spacious. It was nice there was a secondary kitchenette and living room. Outdoor area was nice- we used fire pit and sat outside quite a bit at the fire pit and in the screened porch. House is in a quiet, secluded area. You can walk around the neighborhood but the hills are quite steep in areas. Good communication from the hosts.

Great Family Vacation

Even prettier than the pictures. The cabin was perfect for my adult children and the grandchildren. Roomy and private. Had everything we needed, even shampoo and conditioner. The rooms were very clean and beds were comfortable. We especially loved the large dining room table. Room enough for puzzles, crafts and dining. Close to restaurants and shopping. We were able to visit Hershey Park one day and did the Turkey Hill Experience another day. The children loved playing in the yard with the dog. I would highly recommend the rental to anyone with a large family. We never felt crowded. The owners were quick to respond to any questions or requests we had.

This was our favorite place to stay so far! This house is great! Was a family trip and worked out so well. Master suite for us old folks, sons and spouse had the bedrooms, bath, and living/kitchenette area way in another section and the grandkids had the upstairs. Little things were appreciated-laundry & dishwasher pods, staples in the kitchen, coffee pods, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash in bathrooms. The location was also a plus. Most places we were planning on going were within 30-40 minutes. It was out in the country with no close neighbors and wooded. Which made it really nice. Check in and check out could not of been easier. Had a couple of questions for Justin-our host, and had an answer within minutes. He also was so nice he brought in a package my son ordered to be delivered there! Loved it!

This chalet was a great pick for our family of 7. The chalet is spacious yet cozy and had all the amenities we needed. The master bedroom was perfect, and the master bath did not disappoint. The upstairs bedroom captured our grandbabies from the moment they walked thru the door with bunkbeds. The host was great to work with and we are so glad we chose this home.
