Honey Brook, Pennsylvania
At our Chester County farmstead, we offer 2 bedrooms, each with private bath. A full service kitchen and dining/living room gives lots of options . Home-made bread & jam, farm fresh milk & eggs, coffee & juice are provided for your breakfast.
The area is great for walks, hiking, and biking.
Your vacation home is located inside the well-known Lancaster-Chester County Amish area. However, we offer you that rare experience of being able to withdraw into the quiet of country when you want to get away.
When staying with us, you will also be close to many attractions: Hibernia County Park (9 min.), Layton Park (8 min.), Struble Lake (17 min.), Mini Golf (10 min.), September Farm - Local cheese Manufacturer and Restaurant, Shady Maple Smorgasbord and Plaza (12 mile) and many others.
Our goal was an overnight stay with peace and quiet, and this fit the bill nicely. The apartment is nicely separated from the main house in a nice rural neighborhood. Pleasant views from all windows; we enjoyed our visits with the dogs, cats and farm animals. The hosts offer some extra special touches that you don't normally find at such rentals. The location is an easy detour off of PA10. We suggest the BBQ/bakery not far down the road. As for us, chances are good we'll be back.
The apartment environment was restful and calming. The outside area was very enjoyable and the dogs were great!
We had to cut our stay short, sadly ! Would definitely return!!
Beautifully remote and quiet location yet surprisingly close to the city. Accommodation was excellent. Would stay here again gladly.
Positives: beautiful property with farm animals to watch, and dog's to play with. Apartment is quaint, and well stocked with utensils, dishes, pans, and coffee supplies. We did have fresh eggs, milk, homemade bread and jam which were delicious (no fruit or granola) having 2 bathrooms was great. Not far from small cities to enjoy restaurants, shops etc. The owners were friendly and welcoming, as well as their son. Plenty of extra pillows, bedding and towels. Beautiful paint scheme, and artwork. As well as many family games and books. Cons: We were not aware that this was an upstairs apartment that is also above a garage. Thus you hear and feel the door when they open and close it. Also, the second room is across the hall with the second bathroom. There is a 3rd door that is locked leading to the owners home. The listing needs to be updated as they did not have a ping ping or pool table. Also, the family lives on the property so we were not able to use the fire pit advertised when we wished, being it was later in the evening. This sleeps 6, because there are twin mattresses under the queen beds. The kitchen however does not seat 6 unless you eat on the couch.
Great apartment for a vacation to Amish Country. Lots of day trips in different directions… Approximately a 45 minute drive to Lancaster (cool city!) (stop at the township of Intercourse for shops & restaurants!) , Longwood Gardens (gorgeous; be prepared for a lot of walking!), and Brandywine River Museum (great place!). We definitely recommend the September Farm Cheese restaurant in Honey Brook for coffee, breakfast, and ice cream as it’s a short drive from the apartment! The Long Way Home Grill at the Waynebrook Inn was a short drive for a good dinner (note that it closes at 8pm). The apartment is above the house garage and is very clean. It is essentially two bedrooms each with their own bathroom, and a kitchen in between. I loved the bread, jam, eggs, and milk provided by the hosts. Also, waking up to the chickens and being greeted by Tara the dog in the driveway whenever we left and came back was great! The hosts are friendly and accessible if you need anything! Enjoy your stay here!
We thoroughly enjoyed this neat and tidy VRBO rental. Particularly appreciated was that Dorothy, Elvin and family made us feel like family. Also hard to beat was the homemade bread, jam and farm fresh milk and eggs. We even had the special treat of their friendly doggies. A great stay and we will be sure to go back when we are in the area again.
Elvin and Dorothy are the perfect hosts! They strike the perfect balance between making you feel welcome while still providing privacy. My daughter and niece had a great time playing with their friendly dogs and meeting the new puppies. The property itself was exactly as advertised. It was tastefully decorated, impeccably clean, and the grounds were beautifully maintained. The kitchen was stocked with fresh bread and jam as well as farm fresh eggs and milk, making breakfast a breeze. We had a wonderful time and can’t wait to return!
Amazing home made bread and jelly. Very clean and nice
The house was very clean and beds were super comfortable. Kitchen had farm fresh milk and eggs, and homemade bread and jam. Loved playing with the families dogs every time we went outside. The only downside was communication with the host. I had sent a couple messages a week before our trip and didn’t get a response until the day before we left. And I didn’t see the host left us instructions for checking out until after we had already left. Overall the experience was great and enjoyable!
