Such an ideal place to kick off your shoes and relax. The house is so well equipped. Beautiful scenery, away from the busy city life. The porch was our favorite. Loved just sitting in the swing and admiring the lake. Just a 20 min drive to Hershey park, museum and restaurants. Oh and the wildlife was fun to watch too.

We had an excellent stay in Mount Gretna! The host provided a very detailed and helpful guide to the property, which we greatly appreciated. It gave us a complete overview of what to expect inside the rental, how to access the property, and answered any questions we had. The property was very clean and had everything we needed.We loved spending time on the patio. It was peaceful listening to the birds, and we even saw a flying squirrel one night. It was so nice to park once and then walk everywhere we wanted to go.We will definitely be back and would love to stay here again in the future!
