It was so peaceful and so quiet it was a nice place to kick back and relax I enjoy the whole week. It was a perfect location. I could do it again thank you.
We loved our stay, so relaxing, beautiful stream in front, lots of property to wander and semi-private. Cabin was updated beautifully. There were some gaps in the entry doors, and the combo lock system getting in was a bit tricky, but we figured it out. Comfy furniture & bed, lovely bathroom. Can't wait to come back.
Nicely furnished, roomy cabin. Great for a quiet weekend away with spouse or partner! Or best friend :) Lovely property with room to explore. Walking path directly across the lane from the cabin that takes you to a magnificent view of the river. Cabin is well insulated - we were there in winter and only needed the one gas-log fireplace in the kitchen to heat the entire cabin! Bed was very comfortable, towels were thick and fluffy, lots of blankets and pillows are available, lots of seating and lighting in the living room. Would love to return during summer or fall in order to enjoy the outdoor seating areas. We enjoyed our stay very much and felt like we were away from everything, even though we were still close to many things.
this was a lovely, charmingly quirky cabin - by a gurgling stream and in a quiet wooded area - near the Susquehanna for those who desire boating, as well as the hiking in the area.
Loved this cabin! We went to Gettysburg and visited all the Amish attractions during the day but loved having a firepit to sit by at night. Having tea in the screenporch listening to the sounds of the brook in the morning was awesome!
This was a great location for touring the surrounding areas. The home was set up so well for spending time on the go AND at home. We enjoyed the brook and screened in porches! Such a perfect spot for our long weekend getaway! We WILL be back!
This was our third stay at this delightful cabin, and the first in the spring. It is a family favorite and we will certainly be coming back. Enjoyed the hiking trails and nearby Lancaster county attractions, as well as charming local businesses.
We loved this cabin and its location in the woods. We had a couple of issues, one being the cleanliness of the cabin, I cleaned the kitchen floor and the screened porches so we were able to enjoy them. Also has an issue with the TV remotes. Other than those two issues we loved the cabin and we would probably rent this cabin again.
This is the second time we spend a long winter weekend in this cabin and it’s our favorite winter getaway. Enjoy the hiking trail right across the street, proximity to historic and cultural sites. Beautiful place in a beautiful area.
The location was excellent for my husband and I with our two dogs.. there are awesome trails across the street with beautiful views. Great dead end road that is super quiet. Adorable creek for pups to swim after a long hike.
The cabin itself wasn’t the cleanest (we saw some mice droppings which isn’t a shock in a rural setting but worth noting). Other than that it was nice and warm with gas fireplaces and very dog friendly with bowls for pups and a casual vibe.
Some things advertised on the Vrbo listing were not as expected. There was no laundry, soap or shampoo for shower and we had to ask for more TP. Not the most hospitable host but the location made up for it.
Everything was as described. Enough room for 3 people to comfortably stay. Would recommend to anyone who needed a quiet place to stay either close to the river or near Lancaster. Just be aware of the steps if you are unsteady on your feet. Other than this i highly recommend stay here.
thank you for offering this sweet cabin and also, for allowing dogs.
our time there was perfect...
we went to Sight and Sound, and the next day back to Lancaster for a buggy ride. Not a bad drive, at all.
this place is blessed, serene and lovely.
got to visit with a neighbor walking her dog, nice and quiet...
we hope to return again.

We loved our stay at the cabin. The house was tucked back into the woods which gives you the cozy feel. Loved the small walking bridge that brings you up to the house. Overall everything was nice and clean. Would definitely recommend this place. Thank you Kristin.

Why they chose this property
This quaint boating community is one of the few navigable areas along the Susquehanna River. We purchased this secluded cabin because of its central location; only 35 minutes from Hershey, 20 minutes from Lancaster & York and less then an hour from Baltimore, with all the conveniences of shopping, dining and entertainment.
