About this property

Twin Sycamore River Cottage, “Serenity”

Our cozy river-side cottage along the Conestoga River is one of two cottages that are within 2 miles of the center of Lancaster City, and have a treehouse-like view from their stance on the hill side.

Located just outside downtown Lancaster, luxury cottage is a peaceful, quiet escape and a great location to simply rest and restore or to experience the best of Lancaster City and Lancaster County tourist attractions. Explore downtown Lancaster, only 2 miles away visiting Lancaster Central Market, Lancaster Convention Center, Fulton Theater, boutique shops, cafes and galleries, and restaurants. A short drive to the heart of Amish Country will take you to the Strasburg Railroad, Sight and Sound Theater, and Dutch Wonderland amusement park. For the outdoor enthusiasts, we don't recommend leaving home without your walking/running shoes, bikes, paddle board/kayak or fishing poles. There is river access from the yard, and the cottage is walking distance to Lancaster County Park and the Conestoga Greenway Trail, where there is plenty of beauty to explore whether by foot, bike or car. Just half a mile down the road is also the Rocky Springs Entertainment Center for entertainment and bowling. Close to Amtrack train station and not far from Spooky Nook Sports Complex.

This brand newly built cottage features a fully equipped kitchen and cozy living space with vaulted open ceilings, 1 1/2 bath, a lofted master bedroom with lots of natural light and small 2nd bedroom with trundle bed. It includes a washer and dryer, deck furniture and grill, fire pit by the river, and 2 street parking spots.

Nearby venues include: Marriott Downtown Lancaster, Excelsior, The Cork Factory Hotel, Riverdale Manor.

Short-term rental, long-term/traveling nurse friendly! Small workspace with desk available in master bedroom.

(Security camera is present on-site only at exterior entrance.)

Clean, relaxing and convenient
Great Property! As previous residents of Lancaster we visit often and decided to try this due to the close proximity to downtown but also relaxed setting near the river. Did not disappoint! Very clean and comfortable and the outdoor space is serene and calming. Highly recommend and will return.

Relaxing Weekend Getaway
This house has everything you need! We brought groceries and cooked all of our meals for our family. Some meals we ate out on the deck with a beautiful view of the river, others we ate right by the fire in the back yard! Perfect size for our family of four. Our kids loved the house/property. Super family friendly. We just booked the one home but plan to book both of them another time with friends or family. Each home, while close together, feels private. They definitely angled the decks, windows, etc so they each feel separate and private if that’s what you prefer. A gorgeous, clean property that we will be staying at again and again. Well done!
