3rd visit to JFP Farm!

The farm has become our go-to location for extended family visits! The layout is perfect for gatherings and the lovely home and property make it the perfect escape from the city. The host, Meghan, is very responsive and very easy to work with. I am sure we will return again!

Senior's Family Reunion

We were welcomed to this charming property by many local treats (on the kitchen counter). These treats were delicious. The home is stocked with everything. We enjoyed preparing meals with all sorts of equipment and eating them at the spacious dining room table. The perfect weather added to our enjoyment. The large porch was the perfect place for conversations .Our beds were all comfortable and we appreciated not having to do much before our departure.

Always delightful!

This is our third year at the farm and we look forward to it every year! Sitting on the porch in a rocking chair looking out over the property is so calm and inviting. Hosts are very quick to answer any questions or help us with anything we need. We always have a wonderful experience!

Golf Tournament at Range End

Needed a home that slept 8 people in close proximately to the Range End Golf course for a golf tournament honoring Dale Lay. Dale died of cancer at age 54 after a brief battle of 80 days. Friends and family created a nonprofit in his honor and this is the annual fundraiser for the foundation. Funds raised provide scholarships at BSHS and local nonprofits selected by his family. We hope to use it annually for this event.

A Perfect Slice of Heaven

We were so in love with this property and our stay was as peaceful and comfortable as it could have been! A group of 8 people, a handicapped person included, were so well accommodated. Our host, Megan, was extremely sweet and communicated throughout with whatever our needs are. Close to all of our needs and beautiful area! Cool Springs, directly down the road was a go to for the heat and hunger, Ten out of Ten, would highly recommend 💚💚💚

The farmhouse is charming, and we had everything we needed. The kitchen is amazing, and the bedrooms are beautifully decorated. Comfy beds. The property is absolutely gorgeous. It is quiet there, and it was so wonderful to rock in the rocking chairs on the front porch. Megan is an excellent host and very personable. I would definitely stay there again!!!!

A Slice of Heaven

This was by far the most idyllic property we have ever rented! Nestled between corn and soybean fields on an expansive grassy yard, this home exceeded our every expectation. Fully outfitted kitchen, comfortable beds, beautifully updated throughout, our every need was met. The property is ideally located, with easy access to Carlisle, Harrisburg, Lancaster, anywhere you might want to visit in Cumberland County. Our host was extraordinary and went above and beyond to make this trip a memory of a lifetime. THANK YOU!!!

The Farm Is Awesome!

We rented the JFP farm with some friends as we were attending a memorial event. The house was a wonderful find - in a quiet area and renovated to modern standards. The kitchen was the best space - lots of utensils and cookware. Megan was a wonderful host and was very responsive. The property sits next to a dirt racetrack that only runs on Friday nights until 9 pm but has fireworks right after! We would definitely rent again!

Country getaway in Mechanicsburg

JFP Farm was a perfect spot for my family (wife, 3 kids and their significant others) when we were in town for my niece's wedding. Seeing the fireworks at Williams Grove Speedway from the porch on Friday night was an added bonus and having my local relatives stopping by on the Sunday after the wedding for an inpromptu family reunion was icing on the cake. The property is beautiful, the house is gorgeous and Megan was always available when I needed. Thanks so much; we'll be back...

Family gathering

We had a wonderful stay at JPF farm. We were in the area to celebrate my mother’s 100th birthday. It was the perfect place for a family gathering. We enjoyed morning coffee on the front porch rocking chairs, playing soccer on the beautiful green lawns, taking walks and viewing the spectacular sunsets. The kitchen is large and fully equipped. The setting is private and peaceful but conveniently located. The hostess was helpful and accommodating. We highly recommend.

Family, Friends, Fun!

This property is everything we were hoping for and more! Immediately on arrival it was clear that we would be experiencing much more than we anticipated. The home is amazing and more than what you’ll ever imagine! The responsiveness of the owner is one of the best we’ve experienced. We will and already have recommended this house to friends and family. No question we’ll be staying here in the future. It’s hard to leave such a beautiful home.
