Cozy!

The house (and front porch!) were extremely cozy, and we loved the decor. The location is perfect--we were able to walk to restaurants, and the setting is gorgeous. So many beautiful trees and flowers and friendly people! We highly recommend staying here.

Mt Gretna weekend

We had a wonderful weekend at Mount Gretna despite the cool and rainy weather. The house was well stocked for our cooking needs. The large well furnished porch was great for conversation, relaxing, games and meals. Very relaxing weekend.

Beautiful cottage with all modern amenities. Thoughtful touches like nightlights, plentiful towels for kitchen and baths and hooks to hang them on, and easy-to-follow directions regarding location of light switches. Lovely porch for relaxing. Extremely responsive host/owner.

Charming house in a cute town

We really enjoyed our stay here. The house has the charm and quirkiness of an old Victorian home, but it's been updated where it matters and is very comfortable and well equipped. The host was extremely responsive to messages and was very helpful. We visited in the winter so we weren't able to enjoy the outdoor space for long, but the town seems really cute and was an easy drive to a few bigger towns, as well as to Lancaster.

Cozy cottage

The cottage was cozy and very clean. It is just as described. The camp meeting village belongs under a Christmas tree- lovely! It was a perfect place to stay for our family on a long weekend in town for a wedding. The host was very easy to communicate with.

Wonderful house and area

This was a wonderful house, very comfortable with all the modern amenities while maintaining the cottage feel of the property. Such attention to detail throughout this beautifully furnished home. The times when we weren't exploring the neighborhood, we were relaxing on the spacious and comfortable porch. I would definitely recommend this home and Mt Gretna; and would love to come back again to do it all over again!

3 generations

Three generations of my family stayed at this cottage. It suited us very well. The porch is amazing. It’s a great place to sit and gather all together. The cottage was very clean and neat. The kitchen was great, and had everything we could need. Mount Gretna is my happy place. I spent all my summers there growing up.

Fabulous

Lovely property, very comfortable and welcoming. We prepared and served a full Thanksgiving meal for 17 in the well equipped kitchen. Nice room to spread out for smaller group conversations. Almost warm enough to spread out onto front porch and could have with jackets on. Loved walking the neighborhoods. Dog warmly welcomed. Would definitely love to stay again. Highly recommend this property.
