Perfect in Every Way!
I booked Nest on the Run for our women's tennis team--we had a tournament in the Lancaster area--and it was perfect! Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for the nine of us (including one person with limited mobility), a fully-equipped kitchen, laundry, and beautiful outdoor spots (dinner table, grill, fire pit, and hot tub, which was our favorite). The place was extremely clean, the towels and bed linens were exceptional, and our host was very responsive and easy to communicate with. The house was recently renovated and everything is lovely--there are thoughtful touches everywhere like built-in night lights, lots of hooks for clothes and towels, easy HVAC controls. Don't hesitate.. this is a real find!

Lefever wedding weekend
We had a wonderful time in this amazing property! Literally used every square inch of it! We were so pleased to find it speaking clean, more spacious than the photos depicted and exactly as described. We had plenty of parking space for loading and unloading wedding needs throughout the stay..as well as perfect spots inside to store things. This is a beautiful home and we hope to visit again.

Wedding weekend
We stayed here with our daughter and her bridesmaids. The house was perfect! The outdoor space was amazing with plenty of seating, great fire pit and hot tub. The inside was immaculate with high quality kitchen, bathrooms, linens and mattresses. It was perfect! Might be the nicest rental property we’ve ever rented! Would highly recommend!

Perfect Family House
This was our second year in a row staying at the Nest on the Run. It's the prefect house for our family, plenty of room to be together inside and out. The house is immaculate and very well kept. The location is perfect for a visit to Hershey Park and also to Lancaster. Everyone in the family loves the house and the surrounding area, we will be back.

Great Weekend Getaway
We stayed at this property this past weekend and loved everything about the house. It was perfect for two families, 4 adults and 7 children. Everyone loved the games, hot tub and fire pit. It was close enough to Hershey Park and Lancaster activities. Andrea was the best and communication was clear and thoughtful from the second we booked. My friend and I joked that we wish VRBO had a "Places like this" option because we would love to know every rental was this amazing. If we come back to the area we definitely would stay again.

Perfect Nest on the Run!
We stayed at Nest on the Run for our home base for our visit to Hershey Park. The house was conveniently located less than 30 minutes away from the park. There were 4 adults and 5 children aged 5-11. Nest on the Run could not have been a better home away from home. The online photos looked nice, but truly the property was far beyond our expectations. The grounds are park like and very well kept. We enjoyed all of the outdoor space every evening. The home itself was peaceful and relaxing. We have rented our fair share of vacation homes and Nest on the Run was by far the best one yet! Not only was it well appointed with the creature comforts home, but no detail went unnoticed. There were plenty of towels for each of the 4 full bathrooms as well as separate towels for the hot tub. The kitchen was well stocked and though it may not be significant, the herbs and spices were not sticky and gross like most rentals. There were plenty of board games and other games to play. Our favorite was Buck Shot! We enjoyed time on the front porch in the comfortable rocking chairs and truly spent quality time with friends. My standard are very high with cleanliness and this home was absolutely PRISTINE. I have never seen a house as spotless and well cared for. The beds and linens were high quality and cozy. We really appreciated the time and care that was put into the property. Andrea, Mike and Wendy were top notch hosts. My communications were mainly with Andrea and she was phenomenal. Five stars are not enough to do this property justice. Nest on the Run is a gem! If we travel back to Hershey, we will absolutely stay here again! Thank you so much for your hospitality in your beautiful home!

My family absolutely loved this property! The Mount Joy location was perfect, close to Hershey attractions and Lancaster. The house was immaculate and very spacious!

Not enough stars
This property was amazing. We have stayed in many rental units all over the country and have never had a unit as well appointed as this one. There was not a thing we needed that was not provided. We stayed here over our sons wedding weekend and the house acted as “home base” for the grooms family with the adjacent house as “home base” for the brides family. It was a perfect setup, close to the venue, close to each other, all our needs provided for. Thank you so much for helping to make the weekend perfect and memorable for the whole family.

Wonderful wedding weekend
The hosts of Nest on the Run are wonderful to work with. We rented the house for the beidal party for our daughter's wedding. The house is beautiful and has well designed spaces for entertaining. It is even more beautiful than photos can capture. I highly recommend if you are coming to Mount Joy, Hershey. Mount Hope area.

Delightful stay in a well-designed home
We stayed here while in town for a wedding. The place was amazingly modern with a country feel (it was once a farmhouse but was gutted and totally redone on the inside, including expansion). It was super-comfortable for our extended family. Each main bedroom had a bathroom of its own (except one smaller room with two bunks that serves like an entryway to a main bedroom/bathroom - a perfect setup for parents with children). We were pleased with the well-equipped kitchen and the large amounts of interior space, including a huge dining room table. The hot tub was a delight. The owners were great to work with. My mother has very limited mobility, so it was important for us to get a place into which she could ride her electric scooter, and then get around inside with the walker. There is a ramp to get to the entry level - very easy to navigate. The main flooring is very easy to traverse with the walker, and the main floor shower was very spacious and easy to get in and out. The only downside here is that there is not an official “bedroom” on the main level, but there is a room with a pullout sofa, and that met my parents’ needs very well. It is worth noting that this house is located right on the busy Main Street through town. This is super-convenient to get to anywhere in Mount Joy. There is, however, some traffic noise that we found distracting at times. I hesitate to mention this small downside, except that if a future renter is looking for a quiet house in a secluded part of the countryside, this house would not meet that particular desire. Still - this is definitely FIVE stars, and we would rent it again if our travels lead us there in the future. Thank you for a wonderful experience!
