Very nice home, plenty of space, pool table is a bonus!
We truly enjoyed our stay in this very clean, spacious, cozy and nicely decorated vacation home. Owner is very thoughtful in everything—different types of dishes for adults and children; games for kids; pool tables, table tennis and air hockey for teenagers and adults; coffee station is excellent, the location is also very convenient if you are visiting Lancaster and the surrounding area. We went to Sight and Sound, Bird-in-Hand, Tanger outlet, Hershey, and many nice local stores around the peaceful community. Highly recommended!

Fantastic a second time
This was our second stay here and we had a great time. The home is still beautiful and very comfortable and clean. Our host was very responsive when we thought we might’ve had an issue. It was a lot colder and windier this time around so we didn’t make much use of the outdoor patio, but we did get in the hot tub. We will come back again.

Memorable & Enjoyable Stay
This property was truly exceptional, a beautiful craftsman style home that was not only very spacious but also met the needs of our family. Unfortunately, on our first night, we were met with a very serious water leak from the bathroom into the basement which rendered us with only one shower for the eleven of us to use. It was challenging for the one night but we managed. We contacted our host Ben and the next day the problem was resolved. Ben was apologetic, he did offer us a partial refund for the first night and we accepted his offer. Thereafter, we went on to have a most memorable and enjoyable stay without further incident, enjoying both the beautiful indoor and outdoor spaces. You will not be disappointed in choosing this property because this vacation home has a lot to offer everyone, both adults and children. We will definitely stay at this property again in the future because of its beauty, charm, spaciousness, location and wonderful host. We had a great time, thank you Ben!

Pennsylvania Dutch Country hidden jewel
Ben is absolutely amazing as a host! We travel quite often and this is one of the best properties that we have stayed in. We traveled with three generations, aged three to well seasoned. From the 1st floor game room to the well appointed den, replete with a pool table and air hockey. The property has more then ample space for young ones to stretch out and play. The outdoor patio is a virtual oasis. The hot tub with Bluetooth enabled sound and ambient lighting created the perfect enclave for the adults to enjoy some tranquility and serenity. While we did visit Sight and Sound, the true purpose of our travels was to offer a brief respite to one of our sons and his family. They had the unfortunate experience of suffering through a devastating house fire. They were awakened by smoke alarms blaring. The fire burned their house to the ground. Even the studs and joist were rendered to ashes. Bless GOD that our son, daughter-in-law and their six kids all made it out safely, but with only pajamas and house shoes. The fire totally consumed all of their material possessions. I relayed these unfortunate circumstances to Ben and the way that he supplied and stocked the house convinced us that he considered the most minute details in ensuring that we would have an enjoyable stay. We generally travel to the area when Sight and Sound introduces a new production. On future visits to the area, Ben King will definitely be our host of choice. Thanks Ben for an enjoyable stay!

We had a group of friends stay in the house for a single night. It was clean, roomy, and looked exactly like the pictures. The amenities including the hot tub and fire pit provided a great backdrop to relax and catch up. Pool and Ping Pong tables also a plus. Many social areas and bedrooms comfortable. The community is lovely and quite but a bit distant from Lancaster if that is your destination. Overall, great place and experience

Booked this place for 3 days, as my now wife, and I got married. Had the groomsman, and bridal party all get together, and overall, was an amazing place to stay. Many things to do for entrainment, and very comfortable. Hose is super responsive. Check in was also super easy. Had a stress free stay, and besides that, a beautiful wedding, and great time with close friends. 5 stars goes to this place for me.

The property was exactly as advertised! The house had charm, and was extremely comfortable. It was perfect for hosting our holiday family gathering; heated outdoor hot tub, functional grill and table with fire pit, great gaming area for the teens, and plenty of open space for celebrating. The owner, Ben, was responsive and accommodating. We hope to be back at Ben’s place in the future, should we decide to visit Lancaster, PA.

The house is beautiful! My family loved every part it. The kitchen was large and well stocked, there was plenty of seating at the tables for us. The living room had great furniture. The decor was super cute and it was still decorated for Christmas which added a special charm. We enjoyed the hot tub even in the cold weather. The downstairs had a great pool table and other games with plenty of TVs so everyone could find something to watch. We had plenty of beds to accommodate us which was a plus. To say it made my moms heart happy to have her family under one roof is an understatement. We will definitely come back to the area again!! Thank you Ben King for helping to make great memories. Ps - the neighbors let us hold their new puppies. What a treat!!

Wonderful family vacation
I brought my kids and their families here for a Christmas getaway. When we first walked in the door it was amazing. The house is beautiful and there is so much room for everyone to have their own space. The kids loved the animals in the back, the pool table got used a lot, along with the air hockey. We went to see the miracle of Christmas at sight and sound theater and I really recommend everyone go there and see one of their plays. I’ll be coming back next year to see Daniel. Overall it was a wonderful time, and I would highly recommend staying here, the host was great, the location was great and the house was amazing.

As advertised it was a 5 bedroom 2 and a half bath home with lots of entertaining room. We had 10 people sleep at the home and 17 for Thanksgiving dinner. We could have used a little more room in the kitchen, but we cooked a full dinner. The "kids" enjoyed the ping pong table, pool table and air hockey. We love football, so the TV's in the common areas were all used. Overall, we had a great time together and the home fit our needs.
