The pictures don’t do it justice! It is large and spacious and the property (creek, fire pit, yard) were all wonderful for our family trip. We loved the quiet and peaceful nature of the location but it was still 20-40 min from places to eat and visit.

Beautiful home surrounded by nature. Spacious with perfect accommodations for adults traveling with small children. We stayed the weekend of my daughter’s wedding at the Drumore Estate and it was fifteen minutes from the venue. There are some winding roads to get to the location but the beautiful scenery is worth the drive. I highly recommend for a family vacation in the Lancaster area!

About the Owner:
Don Wagner - Southern Lancaster County has been my home for my entire life. I live 20 minutes away from Creekside Cottage and had been in the Real Estate business for many years. It has been my vision to create a place for guests to stay while visiting beautiful Southern Lancaster County.
***Sadly, Don Wagner passed away on March 27, 2023. He is dearly missed by family and friends.
The Hosts: Laura & Kara are the daughter & granddaughter of Don Wagner. We are continuing the tradition of hospitality at Creekside Cottage.

Why they chose this property

This property is adjacent to my country cabin and stables. The rich history and natural attractions in this area inspired me to build Creekside Cottage. Come relax and explore this beautiful area!

What makes this property unique

I designed Creekside Cottage with comfort and efficiency in mind. The wood used for the kitchen island, kitchen table, walls in the den and Master bathroom all came from the trees on my property. If you stroll down behind the cottage, you will discover the most amazing natural rock wall. If you desire to visit an authentic Amish community, then this is your place.
May you find peace, comfort and serenity during your visit!
