About this property

Pack House Cottage Lancaster County PA 2 Bed 2 Bath House & Garden

Lancaster County is a very big county a total of 984 square miles. We are located on the southern end of the county and about 15 - 30 mins from all Lancaster attractions. If you need to be close by to a nearby town, venue or attraction please contact us and we can let you know the distance. We have 2 very nice parks and public swimming pool, all within walking distance.

Most local businesses are closed on Sundays, however there are still lots to do on a Sunday. visit lancasterpa - /attractions/open-sundays/

Parking and entrance to the cottage is in the rear. Please park in designated area away from the garage. The designated parking space can hold two small cars or one large vehicle, additional street parking is available if needed.

During your stay at our spacious collective/shabby chic theme cottage you can hear clapping of horses and buggy passing by. Coffee shops, antiques, ice cream, market, restaurants and more within walking distance or take the breathtaking back roads to all the local sights, theaters, restaurants, activities and much more that Lancaster has to offer.

The cottage/guest house is attached to the main farmhouse which was built in 1900.

Meet our pet mini pigs Angel and Lulu, they live with us in the main house and come out often, you are welcome to pet and feed them the treats we leave in the cottage for them, NO human food please and do not run up to them, as they may think you are a predator!

When you arrive you will find a loaf of homemade fresh bread, whoopie-pies, coffee/tea, eggs from nearby chickens waiting for you. Enter our cottage through the spacious living room with 50 inch Smart TV, computer work area and fireplace, off to the left is an updated kitchen/dining room with new appliances, filtered clear mineral water dispenser and all amenities for a full service kitchen plus a first floor full bathroom with shower. Up the steps are two bedrooms, One has a queen size bed and one has a double/full bed (beds are memory foam) and another full size bathroom with shower. Our sofa is a pull out memory foam double/full bed to accommodate handicap guests. A sofa bed will be made by request.

Please note - do not book for someone else. If you are booking, you must be staying also. Person booking must be at least 25 years old.

Meet our potbelly piglets Angel & Lulu, they are our pets and not farm animals, you are welcome to pet and love them like we do. Please DO NOT FEED THEM! We will have treats and instructions on how to feed them in the cottage. Do not run up to them, as they may think you are a predator! For the same reason we do not accept pets/dogs - they are potential predators to our piglets. Angel and Lulu live in our house and have access to the backyard at all times. When the weather is not to their liking, they use a litter box located in our laundry room. They love being warm and often will nap outside in very warm weather otherwise they are staying warm under many blankets inside the main house on a comfy bed.

We rescued a "Pomsky" puppy name Josie (JoJo) in December 2022, she is well trained and friendly and she will also have access to the backyard.

Let us know if you are celebrating a birthday or anniversary for a little extra special attention.

During your stay be sure to ask us about making reservations for an authentic Amish Dinner at an Amish Home.

We live on the property, and we are available as needed either knock or text. It is a shared backyard and parking.

I offer a class in the Farm House - "Candle & Soap Making Classes" I would be very happy to set up a class for you during your stay. For more information https://www.gslorganics.org/classes

We are looking forward in meeting and hosting you!

Charming guest cottage! We only had 3 nights here, but it would be very easy to spend longer. Wonderful amenities…fresh eggs, whoopie pies and oh so comfy beds. The sweet pigs are such a treat to watch! The area is just beautiful and it is a joy to return to Pack House and relax after a day exploring!

Great for Kids and Convenient to QPRC

We love staying here (our second visit). The homemade bread and fresh eggs are delicious, and the location is close to the Quarryville Presbyterian Retirement Community where my mother-in-law lives. Even better is the fact that this property is handicap accessible on the first floor (with grab bars in the bathroom) so my MIL can share a meal with us or hang out in the living room and visit. The kids love feeding the pigs their treats, and playing with the toys and games. This is our favorite spot to stay in Quarryville when we visit!

Wonderful summer stay

Our family stayed at the Pack House Cottage while we went to a family wedding nearby. The cottage was the perfect place for us and Candy was so accommodating. She had a pack n' play, booster seat and toys all available for our kiddos. She also allowed our 3-year old to meet and feed the pigs which he loved. Everything was clean and user friendly. We couldn't ask for a better place to stay.

Organized, clean, and very friendly

From the fresh eggs and bread, to the homemade lotions and toiletries, the kids toys and games, and petting the pigs, the Pack House was full of thoughtful touches that made our stay very comfortable. We appreciated the accessible entrance and first floor bathroom as my mother in law was able to bring her walker in for a visit. Will definitely stay here again!

Awesome getaway

This was an amazing place to stay. Candy and Freddie had everything set up so well and they were so accomodating for my husband and I. The house was perfect and so warm and cozy. They had great advice for different places to shop or eat at. And there were so many personal touches from the fresh backed bread, to the postcards to send home, to the soaps and lotions. We will definitely be back again.

My husband and I rented the cottage for our 22nd wedding anniversary. It was very clean and well-kept. Even some nice surprises awaited us that we were not expecting. There was freshly baked bread, whoopie pie’s and many other comforts of home. Freddie and Candy were wonderful to deal with and we loved their pet pigs! Highly recommend!

Family Annual Trip to Amish Country

Arrival at the Pack House was smooth. Instructions were timely and very clear. We absolutely loved our stay at the Pack House.

We loved this property for all the reasons in the rating scale, above, and more. Candy and Freddie decorated the property beautifully. Every time we looked around we found a new unique touch. The fresh bread, eggs, butter, lotions, soaps and more were an extra touch we appreciated. This was the perfect property - excellently decorated, clean, convenient location, the pigs were an added bonus that our daughters loved. Candy and Freddie were amazing hosts!

LOVED OUR STAY!

My family of 5 (aged 5, 4 and 21 months) had a phenomenal stay at the Pack House Cottage. Candy and Fred really have thought of EVERYTHING. Everything we needed, we easily found. The kitchen is soo well stocked, and the little touches all over the cottage are so thoughtful and make the place so cozy. My kids LOVED the dog, Jojo, and pigs, Angel and Lulu. The homemade bread, fresh eggs, jam, cream and whoopie pies were SO appreciated and delicious! We also loved the GSL Organics products that are throughout the house - my hair felt so good, and we loved all the scents. We loved the yard and the outdoor space and just sitting outside to relax and let the kids play. The hospitality was simply unbeatable, and we really hope to come back one day and stay. Thank you so much!!!

Perfection

Candy Ann and Freddie could not have been more welcoming, or more thoughtful, hosts. And the cottage was absolutely perfect. Quite possibly the best VRBO we have ever stayed in. The attention to detail was amazing, the welcome treats (especially the still-warm loaf of bread baked by Candy Ann) were delicious, and every comfort and convenience was provided. The owners' pet potbelly pigs Angel and Lulu, and dog JoJo, are adorable, and we loved that they came to hang out with us in the lovely back yard. The location of Pack House Cottage is ideal for exploring Lancaster County, and it is great that the supermarket and Goods Store are close by. Candy Ann gave us lots of great tips for enjoying the area and it was hard to choose whether to venture out or relax in the rocking chairs on the porch with a cup of coffee or a cold beverage. Pack House Cottage is VRBO at its best.

A+++!! Could not have been better!

From the moment of booking, Candy made us feel appreciated and welcome. Communication was superb and check-in directions were clear and concise. The cottage was immaculately clean and no detail was overlooked. Fresh eggs, bread, jam, butter and creamer were provided (and delicious). Also provided were chicken food and snacks for the two family pigs. My 14-year old daughter thought this was the most amazing thing - we fed the pigs and chickens early in the morning (bonus!) . We would definitely stay at Pack House again without hesitation and look forward to doing so! A very special thank you to the Pack family for welcoming us and making us feel so appreciated.

So much Love

From the moment you arrive, it is obvious how much love Candy and Freddie put into the cottage! It was so perfect for us. It was super clean. There were thoughtful touches such as books, magazines, games, blankets for snuggling and GSL products. Not to mention we also arrived to fresh bread, butter, whoopie pies and a lovely welcome card. Our family enjoyed our stay with Angel and LuLu. Even though it was winter and cold, the kids still played in the yard. Everything was decorated so beautifully. The surrounded area was great for our family. We enjoyed thrift stores, farmers markets and Amish shops about 15 mins drive. I hope to return very soon!

Another Pack House Vacation

We just returned home from another great stay with Candy and Freddy. They are the ultimate hosts. The house is perfect in every way from all the amenities to a location that is central to everything. Quarryville has a curfew which we laughed at but it is so nice to be in a place that is quite at night and no people out in the streets. It's hard to believe that somewhere like this exists in our world today.
