Downtown Harrisburg Water Front Home - Close to Hersheypark & Farm Show Complex

Perfectly situated in downtown Harrisburg is the historic district of Shipoke, a residential neighborhood. This 3 story rowhome features 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, private parking with small garage. Central air and heat. Fully stocked kitchen with ice maker fridge. BBQ gas grill. Very walkable to all things in downtown Harrisburg.

Rental rate is all bills paid. That means we pay all utilities. However, we ask that you be kind to the environment and not waste our natural resources by leaving faucets running or taking excessively long showers. Let's leave this planet for our future generations.

It is also fully furnished house down to the spoons. If you're renting on a month to month basis, then we ask you provide towels, detergent, paper towels and toiletries.

Please note that the base rate for this house is for 4 people at full price. (The base guest count will vary if we discount our rates based on seasonality). The additional guest rate is $20 guest per night depending on the season. This fee helps to cover additional utilities, wear and tear, bedding, etc.

The house is a technology wonder. We now have full keyless entry with home automation features such as lighting, thermostat and doors. You will never have to worry about lost or misplaced keys ever. We have highspeed Wi-Fi, Netflix, Amazon Prime, Sling and HD major network cable (via antenna but weather prone).

If you like to cook, this is the place to do it. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking gear. The rear patio has a picnic bench, a large BBQ grill and even an herb garden for your use during growing season. After a good meal, you have Riverfront for a nice relaxing walk. The sunsets are to die for with the many bridges that Harrisburg city is known. Enjoy!
