Our stay was amazing, the house was perfect, extremely clean.
The location right on the lake was great and it came with everything possible to make it a great stay, plenty of things to keep the kids entertained as well
The perfect small cabin getaway. The cabin was perfect for the two of us. The amenities provided were outstanding and thoughtful. The cleanliness was outstanding and provided the perfect place to unwind and relax.
This was a very nice place to stay with everything we needed. It was very clean and well decorated. The view is excellent and the fishing was great too. We caught catfish and carp.
We absolutely LOVED The Nest. The views, the decor, the boat, the wildlife and the hammock swings-we loved it all. It was cozy, comfortable and soooo relaxing.
You won’t be disappointed.
We can’t wait to come back
This was one of most amazing stays as I travel a lot. The view was breath taking and it was soooo peaceful. I will definitely come back...FREAKIN AWESOME PLACE. EVERYTHING I EXPECTED AND SO MUCH MORE..If i could would have given it 10 stars **********
Thanks to the owner for allowing us to stay it this amazing slice of heaven.
We had a great time at The Nest! The place is beautiful and clean. Owners Ivan & Marian are welcoming and accomodating should you need to reach out! We spent our time visiting the surrounding area throughout the day, but when we came back to unwind, it was peaceful, quiet, and very much relaxing.
The nest was an amazing by the lake house. It was clean and very well maintained we had everything we needed in the house and more!! Definitely recommend this for a couples get away or a fun family trip!
This property was nearly perfect!! My 14 year old was a little bummed he wasn’t allowed to swim in the lake, but not a deal breaker. The property was immaculate and provided everything we needed; nice, quiet base for our theme park adventures.
The hosts provide so many extras and its very clear they spent a lot of time renovating the property. The yard is well landscaped and the decor was fresh and inviting. We had a lovely time relaxing and painting landscapes by the dock!
This property was just as it was listed. Gorgeous from the moment we drove up! It was exactly what I wanted and all I could have asked for. Very romantic and beautiful!!!!!
This quaint little house could not have been more perfect for our reconnection trip. It was so peaceful and the view of the lake from the loft was amazing to wake up to. The 2 decks offered more great views and an incredible place to eat or sit and talk. The house was so clean and so nicely done. Everyday we noticed an amazing new detail the hosts put into the property in order to make you stay as relaxing as possible. EVERYTHING was provided. Seriously! Don't overpack, especially in the kitchen! ALL you need to bring is your clothes, food, and log in information for Netflix or Prime. The fishing was great also! While we caught plenty of bass and crappy from the dock, fishing was a little challenging due to the aquatic greenry. The boat provided was a great addition to cruise the lake or to do some fishing! We can not rave enough about The Nest. It truly was a dream getaway and we can't wait to return! Thank you again for providing us with SUCH an amazing place to stay! Truly one of the best rentals I've come across!

About the host
Hosted by Ivan and Marian Zimmerman
This property is owned and managed by Ivan and Marian Zimmerman , along with our 5 children. We worked together as a family to bring 'The Nest' to life. And as we did so we fell in love with it (: We live nearby and are available as our schedule permits.
Why they chose this property
We both grew up in Berks County and we stayed : because its home . And whats not to love? The pace is slower and the scenery is lovely . Its the perfect area for a get away. The Nest is located in a quiet neighborhood in the countryside with a 10-minute drive to the town of Hamburg. It is located in a privately owned community surrounding a 24 acre lake.
What makes this property unique
Because of its peaceful lakeside setting you will leave this property rejuvenated !! We provide all you need for a relaxing time. The backyard has boat access to the lake for the supplied boat. (life vests provided) You will find firewood for the fire pit. The patio table on the deck is a perfect spot for dinner and a show. (the sunsets are amazing !) Please note; while there is great wi-fi , cell coverage at The Nest is limited . You might try to drive a few minutes down the road for service or use wi-fi calling.
