Enjoy a relaxing get away in this peaceful, clean & accommodating guest house, named the Oasis. It is located in Mount Joy, Lancaster County's farm country, and is ideal for a quick & restful get away from the busyness of life! Hershey, Harrisburg and Lancaster are all within a convenient 30 minute drive. Enjoy shows at Sight & Sound Theater or at The American Music Theater. Visit Hershey Park or take advantage of shopping in Lancaster's many outlets.

The Oasis is surrounded by farmland, goats & chickens and is ideal for rest & relaxation. Although there is much to explore close by, if local attractions/activities are desired.

While built to look like a carriage house, to be in keeping with surrounding historic farmhouses, the Oasis offers many modern conveniences. The space has been decorated with a contemporary, country feel and is very warm & welcoming with a full kitchen, large great room with vaulted ceiling, tranquil bedrooms, jetted tub and outdoor private hot tub. It is about 1,000 square feet and all on one level for easy access.

A detached game/rec room is available upon request- see pictures below. The space offers comfy seating, flat screen tv, x box, foosball, games, etc., and is geared for older children/youth. If you wish to use it during your stay, simply let us know!

The Oasis is an ideal retreat accommodating individuals seeking peace & rest, couples desiring a private get away and welcomes families with a swingset & sandbox for children to enjoy. Come to read, unwind, pet the goats or explore Lancaster Co. We look forward to hosting you according to your individual needs!

            The guest house was quite charming and perfectly appointed. The owner could not have been nicer or more accommodating. We found the location ideal for traveling to Hershey, Gettysburg and the Dutch Country. Our only regret is that we did not stay longer than three nights! The place was extremely clean and beds very comfortable. You will not regret your stay!

            My wife and I couldn't have been more pleased with our stay at The Oasis. Every detail from the welcome basket to check out was perfect. The location is close enough to town for a nice restaurant but removed enough to escape and completely relax. The owners were a pleasure to work with and always responded quickly to emails. Highly recommend that your next escape is to The Oasis.

            At the last minute we decided to go away for a couple days. I contacted Kristy about renting the house and she went above and beyond to work with us on our arrival and departure. The house was beautiful with a very welcoming, homey feeling and was perfect for our family. We were greeted by Kristy and Caleb when we arrived and she was very helpful recommending restaurants and places to go. The house had everything we needed plus more and our boys were more than thrilled about the hot tub and animals. We made a special trip to the store to get carrots so we could feed the horse and goats!! The three cats were very friendly and always greeted us when we came or went. Kristy had a lemon poppy seed cake waiting there for us and it was scrumptous!! The house also had family games (which we took advantage of) along with family movies and books. I highly recommend this guest house and we are already planning for another visit. Many thanks to the Yoder family for our wonderful stay!! PS. The bed in the Master Bedroom was unbelievably comfortable!! I slept very soundly and did not want to get up in the morning!!

            My fiancee and I ventured out of the city for the weekend and found the perfect escape. Kristy and Jeff's guest house was exactly what we needed. First of all, it was spotless and stocked with everything you might need! She even greeted us on our first night and brought over coffee, which was delicious with the homemade bread she left for us. We were 45 minutes from Roundtop, which was perfect a few hours of snowtubing. Lastly we spent much needed downtime in the hot tub which was incredible! what a relaxing way to spend a cold winter weekend. I almost don't want to tell you how much we loved this place, because we want it all to ourselves! Thank you again Kristy and Jeff! We are already talking about when we can come back!

            What a wonderful home away from home the Oasis was for our family of four. As soon as we walked through the doors it took our breath away!! The lovely lemon poppy seed bread was a welcomed treat. We felt right at home immediately. Thank you for your attention to detail and all the lovely decorations. The game/rec room was such a bonus that our girls were not expecting. We can't wait to come back when it's warmer and enjoy all the animals and grounds. Thank you for making the process of renting so easy. I loved that there were no hidden fees that other places like to sneak in. What an amazing place to stay and an amazing family to rent from. We definitely will be back!!

            Owner response: A profound thank you for your positive comments! What a joy to have met you & your family!! And, I'm glad to hear you found the reservation process easy and were pleasantly surprised~ that is our goal! We realize all the hopes & expectations put into a vacation (we've currently begun making our summer plans! :), and we desire to not only meet those expectations, but exceed them!

            Dear Kristy and Family, Our stay was perfect. The Christmas tree was the cherry on the top. Everything was so perfect. We loved the cookies and fudge you had made for us. The hottub felt so wonderful we wish we could have stayed longer. We are already planing our second trip back. What you have there with your Oasis is a very special and wonderful thing. Thank you for sharing your love with this gem. We will be back soon! Gina and Chris PS. We miss your cats!

            It was nice to finally meet you, Kristy. We are so glad to have found such a great place for our family to stay when we are in Mount Joy! The house is so beautiful and had everything we needed for our 3-night stay. Thanks also for the yummy pumpkin bread.. it was a nice surprise. We will definitely be back!

            Just wanted to thank Kristy and family for sharing their guest house. What a beautiful house from the decorations, well appointed kitchen (including the yummy bread) to the cats, chickens, goats and horse. We loved watching them while enjoying breakfast on the porch. So much nicer than staying in a hotel. This felt like home. We really loved the attention to detail and even saw ourselves in a house plan just like this when we retire some day. Hope to return again in the near future.

          Owner info

          Year Purchased: 2008

          About the owner: Welcome to Mount Joy, PA! We have been married 18 years, and we've always dreamed of owning a B&B. While our guest house is not functioning as a B&B, we love the opportunity to host people from all over the country! We are a little Mom & Pop shop, personally ensuring the Oasis is CLEAN & ready for your stay! We own a construction business; Jeff is a general contractor which was a great asset as we personally built the guest house on our property. Kristy enjoys managing the guest house and overseeing the many details of home. Joshua & Caleb are eager, as well, to help welcome you, by introducing you to the animals and sharing the property with other children!

          Why the Owner Chose Mount Joy:
          The Oasis was a project that evolved over the course of 2 years and grew into much more than we imagined... God was faithful to lead every step of the way and it has been set apart for your enjoyment!

          The Unique Benefits at this Cottage:
          We repeatedly hear that our goats, chickens & cats are a delight by the guests, as they enjoy coffee on the deck. Also, the sand box, swingset and treehouse will be enjoyed by the children! Mount Joy is a quiet town with an excellent location, nestled between Lancaster, Hershey and Harrisburg, close to all of the tourist attractions and yet, nicely located in the country.
