About this property

Old Homestead...Rest, relax and renew at this quaint getaway.

Welcome to the "Old Homestead."
If you are looking for a quaint and relaxing getaway, then the Old Homestead is the perfect spot. Located between Shippensburg/Carlisle areas, there is so much to see and do within driving distance. History enthusiast...you have so many places to choose from. Maybe wine is more to your liking...it's a matter of which winery do I choose first. Enjoy hiking...then nearby Michaux State Forest is the perfect place to go or the Cumberland Rails to Trails. Perhaps you prefer to just relax and enjoy dinner on the deck or sit around a firepit and enjoy the evening. Whatever your preference, be sure to enjoy your "home away from home."

The house was very clean an excellent place to stay. Loved seeing the horse and buggies go by. I would advise that the driveway is very steep. The other suggestion would be to replace the commodes with higher ones for folks who have mobility issues. We Loved all the antiques, and the adjustable bed was excellent. We would stay with this host again.

Great location. Clean and comfy

This house was perfectly located for us. Our plan was to visit Hersheypark for 3 days. Located in a peaceful neighborhood, not far from the interstate. The owner is very clear on instructions, great communication and there were so many cute little touches throughout the house that I found myself smiling every day at what new thing I found. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this beautiful home!

Perfect place

This place was so welcoming and cozy! I literally opened the door to this place and wanted to start shopping lol. I love antiques and vintage decor and this place is exactly that. Everyday I saw something I didn't see the day before. Loved the old photos, I assume to be grandparents and the Valentine decor in every room and the homemade goat soap, snacks and coffee! We will definitely be back.
