About this property

New Waterfront Creekside Cottage w/ Private Pool, Firepit, Paddle Boat, Fishing

Welcome to The Millstream Cottage, our newly built Creekside pool house with exclusive access to our private family pool for the duration of your stay! Pool is open May - October. Enjoy this beautiful home away from home only one mile from Dutch Wonderland, Tanger Outlets, local entertainment, downtown Lancaster. Experience the tranquility of being surrounded by nature yet having all your activities close by!

We are pleased to have built a beautiful space for you to enjoy in the heart of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania! As a Superhost on other lodging sites, we bring you professional and thoughtful care during your stay! The Millstream Cottage is the perfect blend of country and city living.

Please make yourself at home with walks along the Mill Creek, morning coffee in the gazebo, and a glass of wine to end the day on your own private patio, or around your own secluded firepit. Enjoy full and private access to the private swimming pool which is directly connected to the cottage.

Please note that we have a one year old, very kind, and friendly German Shepherd named Ally. She will be outside some of the time. She has an invisible fence, which will keep her from coming near the cottage.

Our home is located along a beautiful, winding stream called the Mill Creek. You will have access to your own private patio, a large gazebo on top of the hill, and over one acre of property to explore and enjoy.

We live on the same property as The Millstream Cottage and look forward to serving you in any way we can. Please let us know if you're celebrating a special occasion and we'll do our best to make it even more meaningful!

Welcome to Lancaster County!
Jake + Janelle

The cottage was clean and comfortable as described. The host communicated promptly. However, the upstairs office was used at 7:30 am one morning and although we were already up that was an inconvenience along with children riding 4 wheeler around the property disrupting an otherwise peaceful stay.

What an absolutley lovely cottage. Very well appointed and so well decorated and fresh. The host has a real eye for decor and detail! Also, different than some other VRBOs we have stayed at, the kitchen utensils and equipment was of great quality.Just a great choice as a getaway or home base to explore the beautiful Amish countryside.

I absolutely love the home, the extreme care and attention to detail that went into every corner was absolutely shown.The only thing I would let a prospective renter know before staying here is the second bedroom is more of loft/kids area and very small.
