Cute space w/ great character and couple of drawbacks

Quirky little apartment! Nice view. Very clean and owner/operator is on top of things. Pros:- clean and well supplied- great bathrooms- nice view; eclectic decorCons:- near a major highway which adds car noise outside- master bed not very comfortable; skylight right above

Totally unique

The property was super clean and unique. Reading about the history as a mill in the early 1800's as to how it is supporting conservation in a modern way in amazing. I hope to be back again next year.

This place was easily the most unique VRBO we have ever rented. It legit is an apartment over a creek, as the building was constructed as a mill in 1800. The creek is stocked with trout, though we were there out of season.You need to climb a steep staircase to enter the property, but it's single floor once you're in.The interior is fun too -- mid century modern furniture and great art pieces. It was easy to get around inside, and the furniture was comfortable. It has a dishwasher and laundry, which were very welcome.The only downside was the kitchen furnishings. There were insufficient drinkware -- the host or perhaps a previous guest left a partial sleeve of plastic Solo cups to meet the need. The cookware was also limited.Greg is a good host who cares about the property. We had some hiccups with check-in, perhaps due to the involvement of a management company in between. But once we connected, everything was good.The location was very convenient to Lancaster city and the surrounding county area, including the Amish areas to the east. 1.5 hours to Gettysburg too, which is where we headed after check out.

Loved it!

My sister and our spouses were looking to meet for a weekend in the Lancaster area with the goal of leaf peeping, poking around town with some fun shopping, seeing a great concert and otherwise having much yakking over a few glasses of wine as we hadn't spent that time in the last couple years. I was sorry to find that the hotels were all full (too many leaf peepers apparently) and shocked to see that they were charging outrageous prices even if they weren't full, when I turned to VRBO and found Flory Mills. In short, it was perfect: Big deck, full kitchen, great bedrooms & bathrooms and our goal of much yakking and laughing was achieved! Could not have asked for a better place, and as a bonus, if you like great art and appreciate mid-century modern furniture, you'll feel right at home. We plan to go back!

Spacious, centrally located rental

We had a wonderful stay in Lancaster at Flory Mill. We explored the area for 2 days from Columbus to Ephrata. Close to the interstate. Only problem we had was finding our rental at night. Flowing creek was relaxing. Rental is stocked with all we needed. Host very responsive.

Wonderful stay with a welcoming and helpful host.

We had a wonderful stay. The apartment is pristinely clean and incredibly well-equipped. It is spacious and the amenities are very nice. Greg is an amazing host. He welcomed us with local cheese and snacked and checked in by text to make sure that we were comfortable. If we go back to the Lancaster area, we will definitely stay here. You won't regret staying at Greg's place. It's perfect!

Scenic retreat

The setting was beautiful and peaceful. The manager was very friendly and helpful. The deck was very inviting and restful. Unfortunately, the living room couches and chair was very uncomfortable and difficult to get out of. The beds were too soft and unstable for a good night's sleep. Loved the two baths and the kitchen.

This property was immaculately clean with a beautiful setting. Great for our girls weekend. Beds were comfortable. Furnishings cute. Accurate description. Quality linens/towels. Extra touches like area treats with complimentary Amish cheese, summer sausage, crackers, sparkling water, toiletries and more. Modern Barista machine and kcup coffeemaker, with coffee.
