We had a lovely time staying at this property. The cabin was charming and antique with a huge porch. We loved the claw foot tub, the fireplace, and the proximity to the Pennsylvania Renaissance Faire. We only wished we'd had more time and indoor space to hang out together!
Lovely Cottage, It was clean, neat and interesting. It would have been nice to have functioning porch lights.
Even if we wouldn't have had perfect weather to explore the neighborhood, we could have just enjoyed more time at the comfy cozy cottage.
Have stayed in gretna before, loved the home.
We lucked out with perfect cool weather for the weekend. Not sure how cool the house would be with typical August temperatures. The house was clean and the beds were comfortable. When we were at the house we spent most of our time on the porch or walking around in the neighborhood. Very friendly neighborhood. The inside was dark and could use some better brighter lighting.
Very nice
Great area and cute house. We loved it! Will definitely stay again.
I have been wanting to visit Mount Gretna for years and this visit did not disappoint. The community is beyond charming and our home was absolutely stunning. The home was a time capsule filled with unique antiques and curiosities. I spent the first day admiring all of the treasures right down to the original rope beds amongst all modern day luxuries. The house was so well appointed. There was not one item we wished for. Our trip was so relaxed and enjoyable. I highly recommend booking this home!
Wonderful experience especially the family dinner on the porch that lasted for hours. Location is excellent, kitchen is well supplied, it’s dim inside- needs brighter lightbulbs, the carpet is older, mattress in the room with AC is ready to be replaced soon, other rooms seemed fine. This is a rustic atmosphere in Mt Gretna so this place is as you would expect; relaxing and family and dog friendly. We will return.
This expansive cottage was exactly the rustic vacation home we were looking for! The location was ideal and close to restaurants and the lake. The porch was an amazing extension of the home. It was also nice that they accepted pets. We recommend this home to couples or families. There is plenty of space for everyone!
Perfect location close to LVC. Enjoyed the quaint setting!
Great neighborhood to stay in. House was cozy and had a nice rustic charm. Shower curtain was covered in mold and dusting and vacuuming was needed, but we still had a great time.
Cute cottage! But when they say bring your own paper products (paper towels, toilet paper) they mean it. Also towels. Including hand towels! Other than that the cottage was perfect for our family!
This property was great for our family. Plenty of places to sleep, very quiet and comfortable. My husband and I sat on the porch swing every night and enjoyed the cool evenings together.
Lovely home with beautiful antiques throughout the home. We loved our stay
I absolutely loved the house. It was like stepping into history and the past when you opened the door. The Antique and vintage furniture was neat to look at and the rope beds were surprisingly very comfortable. The antique decorations were also well placed and neat to look at. Definitely a intresting place if you like that sort of thing.
