Great Hershey Getaway

This was the perfect home for our family to stay while visiting Hershey for the weekend. The house is HUGE and gave us all plenty of room to spread out and enjoy ourselves. Access to Hershey was quick and easy. Would definitely recommend.

Great place

We came in for a concert and this was a great place to relax before and after the concert. My son and his friends really enjoyed the pool. Listing was very accurate. Will definitely stay here again if in the area. For the same price of 2 hotel rooms, we were very comfortable and had great amenities.

Great Family Stay

My family and I enjoyed our stay here immensely! The pool was great for the kids and there were enough rooms and beds to sleep our family of nine. This is our second time staying here and we would love to stay again the next time we visit family in Palmyra!

Hershey August 2024

Our stay was excellent. The grandkids loved the pool and the ping pong table. We spent our evenings making smores and hanging out in the spacious gazebo. There was plenty of room for us to enjoy one another's company. Even though the temperatures didn't reach beyond 78 degrees, the kids enjoyed the beautiful, clean pool.

Great accommodations

We had a great trip, 7 adults and 9 for dinner some nights. Plenty of space to relax and eat. Kitchen had a lot of work space for multiple people. We cook every night. Used the grill though this time of year gets dark early and a little tough to see though there is lighting on patio. Beds were comfortable . Plenty of linens and towels.We would recommend and return S of linens,towels. Wellcomfortable

The Watsons Home

This was our 3rd time staying at their home. Always a great experience so much to do there is a ping pong table which we all enjoyed and a pool table. They do have a nice yard with a gazebo, patio furniture and a in ground pool unfortunately it rained we didn’t get to use it. Thank you Mark and Carol. Roseann

Spacious home with lots of amenities

Large house with a lot of rooms, lovely outside area with a pool and large yard. Check in was easy and hosts responsed right away . Our kids appreciated the ping pong table and large yard. One thing to note is that If you're a light sleeper the house is close to a busy road. Other than that this house is a great location if you are heading to Hershey Park.

Great Stay Right Outside Hershey!

This is our 3rd time renting the Palmyra house and it certainly did not disappoint! The house is spotless with a beautiful backyard and built in pool. You are 10 minutes from all of the Hershey attractions. Carole couldn’t have been a better host leaving us fresh flowers and sweet Hershey snacks upon check in and answering all of our questions. I would highly recommend this rental and plan to rent again in the future!

Perfect Girls Weekend Location

This home was a perfect place to stay for our most recent girls weekend. It was spacious enough for us to each have our own bedroom, but cozy enough that we could enjoy visiting with each other in the evenings next to the fireplace. Location was an easy drive into Hershey. Would definitely stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Mark and Carole Watson

Host profile image
We are houseparents at Milton Hershey School and live with our elementary kids on campus most of the time. We love entertaining, so even though we won't be staying in our home when you are, we will be glad to try to make sure your stay is really pleasant!

Why they chose this property

We chose this property because of the big back yard for playing in. There is a 20 x 40 ft. in ground pool to enjoy. There is a play set for younger kids :) We love sitting in the swing in the gazebo visiting with family and friends. There is a large deck and a lot of comfortable seating. The deck has afternoon shade and with the outdoor grill it is a fun place to share a meal.

What makes this property unique

We enjoy our home because if has a cozy family room with a gas fireplace. The downstairs area can easily have groups playing games or talking in different areas so everyone can do what they like. There is a ping pong table in the sun room and a pool table in the basement. So much to do! We like the 4 bedrooms so that there is plenty of sleeping space. We think it is an attractive place to come and relax.
