House was very clean and comfortable. It is on a very busy street and has a very narrow driveway to turn into which makes it difficult in a lot of traffic. The bed was comfortable and the shower was nice and hot. There was plenty of room to park the car. The location is great for all the area activities.

Quaint home with lots of character

Perfect stay for our family of four. Centrally located to everything we needed. Private,spacious home with updated amenities yet still holds charm of a 1920s home. We will definitely return.

Charming older home

Very cute and spacious home. Responsive and accommodating host. The listing and previous reviews accurately described being located on a busier street, the noise machine helped.

First off all, the home was beautiful, spotless, roomy and the character of the home was an an even added bonus! The location was great, it was great and close to anything and everything. The Host, Jennifer, was an absolute Sweetheart and answered every question we had. I don’t like to bother hosts when we VRBO, but I did have a question and she answered it quickly. The check out instructions for the home were clear and very easy! There’s a Giant Supermarket right up the street which is very convenient and a car wash across the street. Fox Meadow Creamery is also right up the street and is a “must stop at” if you stay at the home! Loved it, We’ll be back!

Quilting in PA

My mom, her cousin and I came for the American Quilt Society show in Lancaster (Fabulous by the way) and this house was perfect. Nicely centrally located to every thing we wanted to do and see. Very comfortable. Would recommend it to anyone who wants to explore and enjoy Lancaster County.

6/10 Okay

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in
Disliked: Listing accuracy
. The property was clean and in a great location. However, two of the bedroom doors and the full bathroom did not have locks. The listing stated there were two bathrooms, but there was only one full bathroom and one half bathroom. In one of the bedrooms with two twin beds, the air conditioning was not working. Additionally, there were no sugar or tea bags provided, and the house is relatively small. It was also not very quiet at night, as we could hear horses walking and making a lot of noise.

Very nicely updated older home

We love the old world charm along with a very nicely updated house. It had pretty much everything we could have wanted. It does sit on a noisy road but the Dyson fan came in handy to provide white noise at night. Will stay here again.

Visiting Lancaster PA

The house was great, very clean, bright, comfortable beds, kitchen was well stocked with all the amenities we needed. The location was central to all the activities we enjoyed during our trip. The deck and front porch are large and have chairs for relaxing. It would be good to have a table on deck to use as well. We will definitely rent here again.

Perfect for our girls weekend

We chose this property for its proximity to sight n sound theatre, but it was such a lovely home and the garden was beautiful, that was a bonus. The house was spotless, a recent renovation with everything clean and new, including the towels. We would definitely return for our next trip to Lancaster!

Basketball Tournament Weekend Retreat

The home was spacious and beautifully decorated. Our teenage boys loved the large sofa for hanging out after their basketball games at SpookyNook. It was nice to have two large and separate living spaces. The bedrooms were spacious and comfortable. The gourmet coffee maker was as a treat once we figured out how to empty the grounds and use it. We were able to walk to the grocery store which was convenient. It has a large back yard that we did not use but would be good for lawn games. We would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful Stay

We enjoyed our stay here. It was close to good restaurants (make sure you check out Gracie’s on West Main) and grocery stores. Not a long drive to see the Railroad Museum. A little bit of a hike to Hershey, but we knew that when we booked and didn’t mind. The house itself is very roomy. There were only 3 of us but I can see there would be plenty of room for a larger party. House is beautiful and comfortable and we loved the backyard too! We would stay here again.

Excellent Place to Gather

This house was perfect for our annual girls weekend. It was centrally located to all our activities in Lancaster County. We prefer quiet evenings with games and chatter and this suited us perfectly. The house was clean and comfortable. The kitchen had updated appliances. The bedrooms were a nice size with comfy beds. The host was easy to communicate with. I would stay again in the future.
