Fantastic place!

Property was clean and well decorated. It felt cozy and suited our group well. Plenty of space inside, and a great outdoor space to enjoy as well. The owners thought of everything and it showed — so many thoughtful details and finishing touches. Beds were a little firm for our liking, but not enough to prevent us from returning. We had a wonderful stay.

Great friends getaway

The house was clean and cozy and Brenda is a wonderful host. Was a great place for girls getaway and close to shopping. The only complaint is the highway 39 road noise and the floor creaking from being an old house. We had a great time and appreciated the special touches from Brenda located throughout the house!

A comfortable, fresh, well-appointed place

The house is clean and well cared for, and Brenda has obviously put time and thought into planning for an environment where you can relax and feel comfortable. The quality was high and attention to detail—like having an available place right by the bed to plug in and recharge your phone—apparent throughout. I would recommend her house to others.

Perfect Gathering Spot

There was nothing we needed that this place didn’t have. The fire pit and hot tub were a hit, as was the outdoor cat Norma who hung around. Nice decorating and spotless! One and ONLY small negative was that it’s on a busy road and noisy, but nothing that fans (provided) in the bedrooms couldn’t help to muffle.

A Nice Stay

The property was very clean and well maintained. Overall we had an enjoyable stay. The house is very close to route 39, which is a very busy road so the noise was less than desirable. A bit further away from Amish towns than we wanted for the area, but houses with this many bedrooms are limited in the area. Price was steep, but again not many in the area with that many bedrooms. Owner was very communicative and made the stay very easy.

Yellow brick on 39 was a dream

The property felt like it was straight out of a movie set. It was so incredibly comfortable and charming, the setting was just perfect for us. The amenities were spot on. But the thing that shined the most was the hospitality that Brenda provided. She went above and beyond to give us countless recommendations of what to do, and where to eat and just truly made us feel welcomed and at home. The was our first time using VRBO, and because of Brenda and Yellow Brick on 39 it’s a 10 out of 10 recommend. Best rental experience we’ve had hands down. Thank you again Brenda for the incredible stay!

A well appointed house

The decor is up to date and attention has been paid to necessities and comforts. It’s on a road with heavy truck traffic, so if you need a white noise machine for sleeping, it would be good to bring one with you. It was nice to have a big table for meals and enough seating in the living room for people to hang out together. It’s also good that there is a main level sleeping room in case someone in the party has mobility issues. We’ve stayed here multiple times and made some good memories here.

About the host

Hosted by Brenda Gebhardt

Host profile image
Hi! I'm Brenda. I was a nurse for 23 years, a special education teacher for 3 and now I'm a full-time host and I love it! I was born and raised in Amish Country. My dad was raised Amish and I still have lots of Amish relatives. I love my area and live minutes from the property. I am available if you need me. If you need recommendations, I would love to be your concierge. We can stock your fridge with local goodies upon request, so let me know at booking if that is something that you would like.

Why they chose this property

Yellowbrick is located minutes from I-77 and smack dab in the middle of Amish Country and the Dover/New Philadelphia area. Head west on Route 39 and you are in Amish Country, but don't forget to head east and check out Dover and New Philly for more amazing eats and shopping!

What makes this property unique

Location, location, location. So much to do and see!
