Great location, nice single level home

Nice single level home was perfect for older family members. Check in and check out was seamless with door code. Location was wonderful for Sight & Sound production, only 10 min away. Lancaster is about 30 min away, but really enjoyed all the restaurants and shops less than 10 min from the rental (Dienners, Bird in Hand Farmers market, Kitchen Kettle Village). Would highly recommend it.

Couldn’t Be Better

This house was a dream. Beautiful decor, immaculately clean and had a tranquil peaceful atmosphere. We found everything we needed for our stay, towels in bathroom and a kitchen stocked with all the usual plus a complimentary coffee bar ! Close to stores, restaurants, grocery stores and attractions (We went to a performance at Sight and Sound Theater and had a delicious dinner at the restaurant in the Steamboat Hotel). This gem is located a few miles from the shopping area, on a country road , across the street from beautiful corn field. We saw and heard the occasional clip clip of horses hooves as Amish buggies passed by. We have recommended this property to several friends who will be going to Sight and Sound Theater, as well as some friends who wanted a new place to go for fall leaf peeping. You will be as delighted as we were with your stay!

Lovely

The house is true to the listing and reviews - a lovely and conveniently located place to stay while we explored some of Lancaster and the surrounding areas. It passed my mother's cleanliness test, so really what else could I possibly say. We would absolutely stay here again if we return to the area.

A relaxing spot!

We enjoyed our time at this house! From the living room with the big window to see the horse and buggies go by, to the back porch to grill and visit, it was a lovely place to stay between Sight and Sounds and other family activities! Our 2 year old kept busy with the toys that were there as well, which was a bonus :)

Nice little place to stay. Very clean, had all the amenities listed on website. Enjoyed sitting outside on the patio, cooked on the brand new grill. Don’t want to stay in a hotel anymore, unless we absolutely have to. Got to see a lot of Amish buggies through your stay. Would highly recommend this house.
