Our family has been spending a week in Mount Gretna every year for the past 30 years. The makeup of the family has evolved as my sons grew up, got married, and had children. We have rented a variety of cottages, and have found the Eliza Mae to be the quintessential Mount Gretna cottage. We are booked again already for 2025, having spent the week there last week, the third year in the Eliza Mae. My husband, my sister, and my 90-year old mother stay for the week, and family visits throughout the week. That gives us the perfect balance of peace and fun! We not only love the porch for visiting, putting puzzles together, reading, eating, etc but find the garden in the back to be delightful too. My grandkids love to explore the garden looking for fairies under the leaves of the flowers, catching lightning bugs, and swinging on the swing. And of course going for walks and getting ice cream at the Jigger Shop is a delight.
