The space
The Fisher family, who reside on the Amish farm across the street, are the proud owners and caretakers of this charming residence. Originally constructed in 1840 by early settlers seeking to establish themselves near Martinsville Village and Beaver Creek, this two-story dwelling was crafted from creek bed stone and surrounded by farmland. The rich soil, plentiful timber, water sources, and wildlife helped the settlers thrive.
Notably, it is one of the few surviving structures from the area's earliest days, with the original well still standing beside it, thoughtfully safeguarded to prevent accidents.
During the 1890s, the Pennsylvania Railroad Company laid tracks through the villages and farms using eminent domain. The route remained active for nearly a century until its removal in the 1980s. The land was gradually returned to the farming families, and the Stone House's property was the last to be repurchased this year. The bridge supports in the creek behind the home and the graded earth where the tracks once lay are a reminder of the railroad's presence.
In the 1950s, an extension containing a kitchen and dining room was added to the Stone House, and in 2020, it underwent a complete renovation. After serving as a private vacation residence for two years, it was purchased by Isaac and Linda Fisher.
The Fishers extend a warm welcome to visitors and are available to assist with any needs that may arise during your stay.
Guest access
Guests have access to the property except for the nearby sheds. Beaver Creek is also accessible during times of low water but please be mindful of the steep slopes and slippery rocks. If the water is high or running fast please do not attempt to ford the stream. Fishing is allowed if you obtain a Pennsylvania fishing license. Please always be vigilant and take the highest safety precautions.
Other things to note
Bedrooms 2 and 3 on the 2nd floor are small as this is located in the original stone house. The Master bedroom has ample room.
From time to time, the Fisher family may need to access the basement of the home. However, the egress is outside so they will enter from the cellar doors and leave you undisturbed.
In addition, locals will sometimes fish on Beaver Creek. The bridge serves as a public access point. They will remain on the creek and not enter the property. If there is every a problem, please let us know.
We enjoyed our stay at Joshua’s rental. The house was very clean and spacious. We would definitely stay there again.

In town for son's wedding. Beautiful historical property. Home is spacious and well maintained. I was ready to move in!!
fantastic
Everything was so charming. The owners were so nice. Kitchen is a little sparse for big cooking but fine for grilling and just general things. But i would not dock them for that as the house and grounds are just perfect and peaceful.
We loved this house. Out in the country but with modern convenience. Best vacation rental ever!!
The kids were in the creek the whole time! The house was beautiful and had everything we needed! The owners live across the street and were so friendly. The host replied immediately anytime we communicated.
The Stone House on Beaver Creek was perfect for us. We had come back to the Lancaster area to visit relatives not seen for some time. The rental was clean, comfortable, and had all the amenities one could desire. The owner was very friendly. She checked in often to leave fresh flowers and/or produce from her dream garden. The area was quiet and beautiful with the gentle sound of horse and buggy going by. The creek at the rear of the property was nice to sit beside and listen to the water tumbling across the rocks. We highly recommend this property.
Absolutely beautiful property! Wish we could have stayed longer!
Beautiful completely renovated farmhouse. So clean and very well kept. Felt like home the moment we walked into the door.
