Our stay was very enjoyable despite a cuple suprises on arrival of an entire bunch of smelly rotten bananas on the kitchen counter & overflowing garbage can outside. I contacted the property rental agency & they understood and took care of the problem. The house very well stocked and comfortable. The town was very peaceful with lots of walking roads, trees, outdoor music & events and our favorite place to eat (the Hideaway). Loved the place & the front porch. Next time we will remember to bring hand towels for the half bath & kitchen.

My husband's grandparents owned this cottage in the 1980s and he spent many summers in Mt. Gretna riding bikes, eating ice cream, shucking corn on the patio and celebrating family birthdays. We've visited for day trips over the years and when we saw the cottage for sale last year we knew that if it became a rental we would need to go. Since there are so few properties in the Chautauqua that are rentals I didn't want to miss an opportunity to stay here! Though much of the cottage has been redone, there were some things that remained the same. Our family enjoyed our stay here and it was a very relaxing place to spend a few summer days. We enjoyed rocking on the porch, going for evening walks and vising the Jigger Shop for sundaes and even benefited from hearing a fabulous concert from the porch one evening. Mt. Gretna is a special place in our hearts and we will be back to visit again!
