A cozy home away from home with a full kitchen, two bedrooms and two bathrooms. It was the perfect size and floor plan for an almost empty nester couple and our youngest adult son.

About the host

Hosted by Barbara Stoltzfus

Host profile image
Simeon and Barbara both grew up in Lancaster county and went to the local amish one room school.
In the year 2000 Simeon & Barbara and Simeon's brother and sister in law bought the 12 acre farm together (which included a house and Mobile home) where they both lived until brother and sister in law bought the land next door and built a new house.
Note : the existing mobile home had been replaced with a new one in 2006.

Why they chose this property

This property was land joining to Barbara's parents farm at the time, and a great location right next to the Lancaster county line

What makes this property unique

This property was a fixer upper and a great country setting where we could raise our family and have a large vegetable garden and a animals . etc.
