Such a sweet little place

We really enjoyed this area and the beautiful scenery. The dogs were so sweet and we enjoyed interacting with them as well. We had a concert this weekend and wanted to check in early so we wouldn’t have to unload and set up after at midnight or later. The host was extremely accommodating in allowing us to do so and was very fast with responses. I would recommend this place 10/10 and I am saving for future stay as we enjoyed the area.

Horse farm stay

The place was very clean and the bed was very comfortable. Nice setting amongst the horses, although don't expect to get very close to them. They also have several large dogs that frequently run around the property. We enjoyed watching them and they were all friendly.

Lovely country getaway!

We greatly enjoyed being around nature and watching the horses! The plce was easy to get to. The owners are very nice—their house is a short distance from the property, but it still seemed private. It's quaint and small, perfect size for a couple. Be aware that the stairs to the sleeping area is steep with a dip in the roof at the top one needs to avoid. Lovely!

We loved our stay at this cottage! It was so clean and comfortable. My husband and I were celebrating our anniversary and it was a great place to stay! The bed was super comfortable! The living room furniture too. There are smart t.v.s upstairs and in the living room. The bathroom was plenty spacious. The kitchen had everything we needed and was very nice and updated. Very clean! The view out the back of the cottage was gorgeous! Especially with the horses roaming around. Only cons: Definitely watch your head at the top of the stairs. We both hit our heads several times, even though we knew the roof was low there. There is not a lot of foot traffic, but the sidewalk to the other house on the property goes very close to the front of the house and the other house is quite close, so it doesn’t feel very private. I gave skiing 3 stars, but we didn’t ski or check out skiing areas at all. I had to rate to write a review!

Such a wonderful find for our trip to PA. The cottage was perfect! Exceptionally clean, stocked with anything and everything you would need, personal touches were not overlooked and of course the property and the views. WOW! Our morning greetings on the front lawn by both the hosts and the farm dogs were highlights to our day. Great proximity to Carlisle Fairgrounds and Green Dragon flea market. Hope to see you all again next year!!

This is a charming property on a beautiful equine farm. The property was very clean and was well equipped with a full kitchen. The patio is a wonderful place for morning coffee, meals. Location to Gettysburg was great- just a short drive away. My one wish is that the directions for a/c was clearer as we did experience issues with over a 90 degree plus weekend. Lynne was able to walk us through this matter over the phone. Despite this glitch we would book this property again

The one where our luck with vrbo ran out.

First the positive: 1. Good location, easy to get to Gettysburg, Hershey, Appalachian Trail, and Harrisburg. 2. Host was very quick to return messages. 3. Contact less check in was easy.. 4. Bed was comfortable. Negative: 1. Not private. Listing pics are misleading as there is a house about 30 feet away from the cabin. 2. No shades or blinds on door and windows in kitchen and blinds in living room did not close all the way. 3. The house next door owns five dogs. 3 of which are very large and come over to visit, uninvited. We were sitting on the back patio having dinner and wound up with a big dog face in my plate, which pretty much ruined the food. One morning, a very large dog came running at me barking and growling as I left the cabin. The neighbor was right there to call the dog off, but I was pretty shaken. 4. The cabin had a mouse infestation. The cookware in the drawer beneath the oven was covered in mouse poop and urine. I wish vrbo would allow reviewers to post pictures because i took a lot. We informed the host who reminded us this is a "working horse ranch". I grew up on a "working dairy farm" and we NEVER had mice in the house so not accepting that as an excuse. She said she would bring over mouse stations but we never saw her or the stations. 5. There laundry facilities are actually in the basement of the house mentioned above. Entry is thru recessed cellar doors and a very steep set of stairs-that were covered with garden hoses (again, I have pictures). Basement had many spots of standing water, some over an inch deep. Laundry room was filled with piles of dirty clothes, bedsheets, towels, etc. Like, I get the main house is obviously a long term rental, but how many people live here? In hindsight, the first morning when we saw the mouse poop, we should have asked for a refund and left because on the last morning, there was mouse poop on the kitchen counter. Thankfully we had made it a point to store all our food in the fridge or closed up in our cooler to avoid having mice get it. I'm super disappointed in this place. The last reviewer said "horrible", but nothing else. Details people-when you leave a review, details are important!! We never would have rented this place if we had all this information in hand.

Waking up with the horses!

Our little guy was so excited to stay at the tiny house with the horses. He kept saying that he was going to sleep on hay like the horses do :) The cottage is cute and very clean. In the morning we walked just a couple yards to the lookout to say hello to the horses in the pasture. A truly lovely stay on a lovely piece of land.
