We enjoyed our stay even though it was a short one. We thought the home & property was beautiful & perfect & convenient for us. We didn’t have a lot of time at the rental because of our plans with family. But we would definitely look into staying again in the future. Thank you Brenda

Great get away home

We stayed 4 night at this cozy cottage, my Partner and our 3 boys. 18, 13 and 13 with our husky mix dog Jynx. The house was quiet, our master bed was comfy. The boys said their room was tight, but nice. The creek had lots of fish and great views. Close to historical Gettysburg it was perfect for a quick family trip.

Great place to stay

We just returned from spending a week here. The cabin was incredibly comfortable, the neighborhood was quiet, and everything was in close proximity to many historical sites. We very much enjoyed kayaking in Conewaga Creek behind the cabin and spending peaceful evenings on the deck. It was a great place for a vacation.
