Stewartstown, Pennsylvania
Imagine your family reunion or time with good friends in this pristine farmhouse and spread out on acres of inviting lawn and meadow. Imagine listening to the burbling creek and wading in its sweet water. Imagine swimming in the spring fed pond or hiking around the acres of planted grassland. Or relax after a day of biking on the nearby Heritage bike path (an extension on the NCR rail trail). You might also watch our resident barn swallows swoop the pond every evening, removing all the pesky mosquitos! Your friends and family will enjoy dining in the quaint summer kitchen or the gazebo by the ponds regardless of the weather.

Stayed with four friends and loved the property. House is beautiful with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. Property is stunning, large deck, hot tub and swimming ponds. Would definitely go back.
We stayed here with extended family for 4 days for my daughter's wedding, which was held in a nearby venue. We had the post-wedding brunch on the property on Sunday, and the setting was absolutely perfect! The home is beautiful, impeccably maintained, and has all the comforts you may need. The grounds are peaceful and also impeccably maintained. Lauren was extremely responsive to any communication, and extremely gracious. I can't say enough about Solbakken Farm. We hope to visit again so that we can enjoy it more thoroughly!
Grounds and house are beautiful, spacious, and comfortable. I've never stayed at a nicer place.
This is our second year staying at this beautiful property - we were drawn back by the vast, rolling hills and vibrant greenery, impeccable accomodations, relaxing atmosphere and generous hospitality. This incredible farm is top of our list for another return trip to Central PA - thanks for having us again!
Wonderful property for our extended family vacation. Highlights include en suite bathrooms in every bedroom, kitchen appointed for cooks, and fantastic outdoor space. We enjoyed the swimming pond and row boat, nice places for outdoor fires, variety of short walks, and the kids enjoyed the maze mowed in some tall grass. We're already talking about coming again in the future.
This is my family’s third year at this property and as long as we’re able we will keep coming back every year. The property is beautiful and serene. I’ve sat on the back deck for hours just looking out. Adults and kids enjoy the long walks, and the awesome swimming pond, streams. The house is comfortable, and having a bathroom for every bedroom is the absolute best. The owner is so nice, and accommodating. The caretaker, Butch is delightful to talk to. There’s no where I’d rather stay on vacation. Next up is to find time to go in the winter for a nice snowy trip.
Beautiful property and home! Everyone in our party had a wonderful time.
Spectacular home with breathtaking grounds! Perfect place to get away from everything and relax and enjoy family. The most well equipped place I have ever stayed. They have thought of everything! The entire place is just a breath of fresh air. If you can’t relax here, you can’t relax anywhere! The sound of the birds and stream will simply usher away all your cares! Loved every minute!
We so enjoyed your home, the warmth and love was very present. We have an adult disabled daughter that uses a power wheelchair and we were so happy to be able to travel with this piece of equipment for her. Your home provided us the ability to spend time together and make some great memories. We look forward to coming back to make more memories
We had a great time visiting Solbakken with our family. Lauren has taken great care to make the house comfortable for families with children, which we discovered as soon as we arrived. We had just finished an 8 hour car drive from the Boston area, so when we arrived at the property the kids immediately jumped out and went exploring. They found the two ponds, hiking trails, a bell they enjoyed ringing, and a bunch of other places to hideout and have “sister meetings”. For the adults, we enjoyed relaxing on the deck, watching the deer and the dew in the morning. There was plenty of space for all of us (8 people). The stay was relaxing and exactly what we were looking for, to get away from the city for a while and unwind. Thanks Lauren!
