Mom’s Getaway Perfection

We were three tired moms looking for some quiet and a place to catch up with each other and this home was so spotlessly clean, charming, and peaceful that we were able to recharge and head back to our homes ready to face our sweet families. So thankful for the love that was put into restoring this amazing treasure of a spot! So close to so many good places too but off the beaten path. Can’t wait to return!

My husband and I couldn’t i’ve been happier with this day at this beautiful cottage. It was the perfect getaway for us with lovely simplicity in our busy lives.

Amazing House in the Middle of Amish Country!

Our visit to Lancaster County, PA was better than we anticipated because of the great house that we stayed in. We visit the area 1-2X each year to see Biblical Musicals at Sight & Sound, other local attractions and to immerse ourselves in the Amish culture as much as possible for us "English". By far, this visit was our best due to this terrific, completely restored older house that had everything we needed with very comfortable furnishings and very cool period decorations. From the first night of rocking on the glider and watching horse-drawn buggies go by, to driving past the one-room Amish schoolhouse just up the road. We know that we will be staying here at our next trip to Lancaster! Thank you! Tony & Lisa

Modern 1700s

Our stay was absolutely lovely! The only downfall was the water from the sinks; the hot water took some time to warm up but when it did it was scalding hot. Other than that the home is beautifully renovated, pretty spacious and comfortable and even super quiet. It felt home-y without it being our home, I hope to come back here in the future.

We finished restoring our home in January 2017, working hard to keep its authenticity. It would be our pleasure for you to come, relax and enjoy all the uniqueness of the cottage. Lancaster County has always been home to us, raising our three children on the farm just down the road from the cottage.
