Peaceful, serene, beautiful, and CLEAN!!!
The owners thought of everything - even decorated for the holidays, and provided s'mores fixings. It's situated in a curve of the Conestoga River. Just sitting on the balcony and watching the river was so healing. I hope to visit again sometime this year!

We had a wonderful stay in Lancaster on our girl's getaway! The cottage was easy to get to and well located for all our sightseeing...had everything we needed for a great visit. For sightseeing, we highly recommend the scooter tour too. Really fun!

I arranged this VRBO for my husband for a “daddy” getaway. He told me the property was nice. However I explicitly asked for recommendations for dinner, brunch, even provided cell phone numbers and we were met with silence. That was disappointing as I was hoping to arrange a nice time in Lancaster, not just a nice place to stay.

This was a great place for our family vacation to Lancaster. It was super clean and so close to many different attractions. We will definitely recommend this place to our family and friends.

This modern property is in a very quiet, secluded location. Excellent view of the river from the balcony. It provided a nice quick getaway for us. I would highly recommend.

This is a beautiful house in a great location, perfect for us and our Grandson! A few things would have made it a 5 star stay:
1.) The pillows, yikes! Like a rock and 8 inches high. Luckily, we travel enough that we bring our own since this is an issue at other places. With no extra pillows, we would have been off to Walmart to buy something had we not had our own.
2.) The beautiful windows overlooking the river still had suction cup marks from installation. Get them cleaned!

My husband and I stayed here for an anniversary getaway. It was just beautiful! We ate dinner on the deck, overlooking the river. In the morning we watched the sun come up and listened to the canopy of birds. The county park nearby made for a great walk and we spent hours kayaking on the river. The huge windows facing the river make for a beautiful layout inside, giving it a modern treehouse cottage feel. The house was clean, neat and had all that we needed. The host is top notch- great communication the whole time!

It was a girls trip. I had two friends join me for an over the top mini vacation. The house is beautiful, warm and welcoming. We loved the deck that overlooks the River. In the eveings we sat down by the river to enjoy the birds and view. Cooked in both evenings and the kitchen had everything we needed. Highly recommend this property. The Host is Fabulous
