The host was excellent. The place is a hidden gem. I went here for a guys' weekend, and we really enjoyed the variety of activities onsite and in the area. The open floor plan was a big plus.
Great relaxing stay. My husband and I traveled with both sets of parents and we all had a very comfortable experience. The stairs were a bit difficult for our elderly parents but we made it work. The home had everything needed for our stay. Location was great. Beautiful area. Views of the river/lake were beautiful and we all enjoyed the trains going by. Would definitely stay again. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home with us. God bless.
The house was very spacious with a lot of closet space and drawers. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen had more than enough plates, cups, silverware and pots and pans. There were also a lot of towels and washcloths. Beautiful views, especially sunsets, from the deck. The host promptly returned all of my text messages. We enjoyed our stay.
We stayed here with our wedding party for our wedding weekend. We were able to host a cookout, our rehearsal walk through, and all the weekend festivities. Brian was always responsive to my questions and provided us with a stress free weekend. The views are AMAZING! The property truly is a steal, picturesque and equipped with everything you need.
We had a wonderful time at this property. The views were amazing, the house was clean and comfortable, and we look forward to staying here again in the future!
We love the location of this house because we enjoy boating. The house is clean and spacious and has a great deck to hang out on. Very comfortable beds with TV's in every bedroom. Very well kept home.
Owners were easy to get in touch with and extremely helpful. Property was beautiful, quiet, peaceful and clean. There was plenty of space for us to spread out and games and puzzles galore. From the wildlife to the beautiful sunrises and sunsets, we couldn’t have asked for a better getaway.
Absolutely love the views of the water, we had breakfast and lunch outside whenever the weather permits, and thoroughly enjoyed the peacefulness of the surroundings. Host Brian was very responsive and followed up quickly on a few of my requestsAll in all, enjoyed the stay
Well-maintained and set for large group. I look forward to coming back in spring/summer, when we can take better advantage of the wonderful outdoor spaces and river.
We loved our stay at this house. In town for a wedding, the space was the perfect size to let us visit with family and get ready. Only thing others may want to know is how close the train tracks are to the house. We had lots of safety talks with our kids, and we always knew when the train was going by! But the views of the river can’t be beat.
We were very happy with our stay. The property is lovely and well equipped. Would definitely recommend staying there.

What makes this property unique
I still get excited when the bald eagles fly by. There are eight nest on the 8 mile lake. The eagle population is exploding! The lake is perfect for boating, I have a pontoon boat, great kayaking, many great fishing holes.....
Try exploring the Safe Harbor Petrogylphs. Enjoy biking, newly open Enola Low Grade Rail Trail, 29 miles. Also nice for hiking, or jump on the Conestoga Trail which connects to the Mason Dixon Trail, 39 miles of local trails. Shenks Ferry Wildflower Preserve is best in April.
