This house is beautiful inside and outside. It is very spacious with more than enough room for our family of six. All of the rooms were spotless. We loved spending time in the backyard. Although the weather was not very cooperative, we were able to spend time in the hot tub, use the grill for dinner and sit around the outdoor fire place. The basement also was enjoyable. We had alot of fun playing pool and ping pong. All in all, we had a great vacation here and we were very happy to spend our time in this wonderful house.

Our stay was amazing! The house is beautiful and spacious! The backyard is great! Plenty of room for yard games. The only con is that there were lots of flies, but we were able to manage with the fly swatters provided, and additional items that we purchased. However, we still had a great stay; the house was our favorite so far! John, the host, was very friendly and responsive.

Family Wedding

Our extended family from Fl rented this house for our granddaughter’s wedding in Elizabethtown. It was a wonderful experience from beginning to end. The house accommodated all 11 of us perfectly. The house was so clean and warm. All the beds were comfy. We would not hesitate to rent this home again.

Beautiful country home

The house and surrounding area was beautiful. The house was well stocked with paper goods, soaps and coffee. There was ample room for our group of five but could have accommodated more. We had a great time and enjoyed the house.

The first house I have been twice

I've rented dozens of houses for vacations, but this is the first time I've returned to the same one. My friends who joined me were also amazed by the beauty and convenience of the house. I doubt I'll find another place like this again while traveling for golf with these friends. John, the homeowner, was impressively quick to respond and incredibly kind.

Great house!!

This is our 2nd stay at John’s place and we intend to continue making it an annual visit! It’s centrally located near many things to do in Lancaster County and close to conveniences as needed. The home is immaculately clean, spacious, comfortable and quiet. We would recommend for those traveling as a family or with a group of friends. We love this home and enjoy working with the owners very much. Thanks for a great stay!

Large homes with lots of amenities

We were a group of four adults and four kids and there was definitely enough space for everyone to comfortably enjoy the house. Kids would play downstairs in the basement, while the adults enjoyed the expansive open concept kitchen/living room. Kids also enjoyed the hot tub on multiple days, parents enjoyed the fireplace and we also grilled one of the nights. Beds are extremely comfortable, too! Would stay here again!

Roomy custom home

Our group of 9 ladies enjoyed our stay at this home. It is in a quiet neighborhood with lots of backyard amenities. This is a custom built home with lots of upgrades. The open living space concept was great for a group and allowed for lots of conversation. We would definitely stay here again.
