Senior's Family Reunion

We were welcomed to this charming property by many local treats (on the kitchen counter). These treats were delicious. The home is stocked with everything. We enjoyed preparing meals with all sorts of equipment and eating them at the spacious dining room table. The perfect weather added to our enjoyment. The large porch was the perfect place for conversations .Our beds were all comfortable and we appreciated not having to do much before our departure.

This is our third year at the farm and we look forward to it every year! Sitting on the porch in a rocking chair looking out over the property is so calm and inviting. Hosts are very quick to answer any questions or help us with anything we need. We always have a wonderful experience!

Golf Tournament at Range End

Needed a home that slept 8 people in close proximately to the Range End Golf course for a golf tournament honoring Dale Lay. Dale died of cancer at age 54 after a brief battle of 80 days. Friends and family created a nonprofit in his honor and this is the annual fundraiser for the foundation. Funds raised provide scholarships at BSHS and local nonprofits selected by his family. We hope to use it annually for this event.

We were so in love with this property and our stay was as peaceful and comfortable as it could have been! A group of 8 people, a handicapped person included, were so well accommodated.

The farmhouse is charming, and we had everything we needed. The kitchen is amazing, and the bedrooms are beautifully decorated. Comfy beds. The property is absolutely gorgeous. It is quiet there, and it was so wonderful to rock in the rocking chairs on the front porch. Megan is an excellent host and very personable. I would definitely stay there again!!!!

A Slice of Heaven

This was by far the most idyllic property we have ever rented! Nestled between corn and soybean fields on an expansive grassy yard, this home exceeded our every expectation. Fully outfitted kitchen, comfortable beds, beautifully updated throughout, our every need was met. The property is ideally located, with easy access to Carlisle, Harrisburg, Lancaster, anywhere you might want to visit in Cumberland County. Our host was extraordinary and went above and beyond to make this trip a memory of a lifetime. THANK YOU!!!

The Farm Is Awesome!

We rented the JFP farm with some friends as we were attending a memorial event. The house was a wonderful find - in a quiet area and renovated to modern standards. The kitchen was the best space - lots of utensils and cookware. Megan was a wonderful host and was very responsive. The property sits next to a dirt racetrack that only runs on Friday nights until 9 pm but has fireworks right after! We would definitely rent again!
