Everything was as described. There was a large kitchen/dining room set up that was able to fit our family which was a huge plus! There were plenty of sleeping arrangements. The bed I slept in was quite comfortable. The check-in/out process was quite smooth. The host was very good at pointing out the rules. Overall, the place felt very clean; the sheets, bath towels, bathrooms, everything. Thank you!

We love the place and had a great time. So many of the details were taken care of and provided to make the stay very easy. Only thing that I wanted to mention was that many of the beds were not made with linens when we got here so we had to put the linens on which for some of the beds, Bunkbeds, especially, was a bit of a hassle. Upstairs bathroom door doesn’t close that well. Have to lift and push a lot to Close and Lock, which causes a lot of noise for the bedroom right outside of it in the middle of the night. Loved so many things about the house though. Highly recommend.

Perfect spot for family get together

We stayed here after visiting Hersheypark all day long and it was the perfect spot for us to stay over. Very close to the park in a cute neighborhood. The house is nicely done for a large family to enjoy, especially the large dining table that comfortably accommodates 12! Great location: close to restaurants, grocery, and other necessities. The owner was very responsive and made check in and out a breeze! I would definitely recommend this place to others!

About the host

Hosted by Cindy Fetty

Host profile image
My husband and I enjoy working on our home, hiking, biking, and hanging out. We grew up outside of Pennsylvania, but really love it here. We are houseparents at a local boarding school for low income children and bought our home as a project, somewhere to stay when we are not working and as a way to make as extra income to help pay for schooling and missions.

Why they chose this property

We loved this home the minute we walked in with all of it's old charm and wood everywhere. It has a lot of character!

What makes this property unique

We have a great front porch swing that might be fun to take the time to hang out on. There are lots of areas in the home to be by yourself even if you have a large group traveling with you. It has a cozy feel and lots of character.
