The property was absolutely breathtaking. The house was spacious and everything our family needed. Communications with the owner were easy and quick, she was so sweet and made sure we had everything we needed for our stay. Definitely recommend for families.
Very clean, comfortable, and spacious house. Was a perfect place to spend Thanksgiving with my children and parents! Also views of the farm were fantastic.
Janine was a great host! She even had the driveway salted the morning after a freeze. The place was beautiful and the perfect home for our family reunion. We will definitely rebook this wonderful stay!
Janine was fantastic—responsive, kind, and a pleasure to work with. The house was very cozy, warm, and welcoming, making it feel like a true home away from home. Everything was well maintained and thoughtfully prepared, and we truly enjoyed our stay. We would absolutely recommend this property and would love to return in the future.
The house was beautiful! We had a fantastic visit and it met all our needs. Having the garage to park the cars in and the bonus basement space for the kids to hang out in was perfect. We visited in December and it was had a gorgeous view of the farm. I can’t even imagine how amazing it is in warmer weather. We made some fantastic meals in the lovely kitchen and were able to all sit together around the spacious dining table. It was very clean and the beds comfy. It was such a great choice for our trip to the area.
Beautiful and spacious house that perfectly suited our needs as a family with 7 children. The beds were comfortable and the general area was secluded and relaxing. Highly recommend!
Our family of 9 really enjoyed our stay at this peaceful & beautiful home. The ping pong table & large TV in the basement was a big hit, and the beds were super comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked, as were all of the bathrooms. Highly recommend!
This place is awesome, well accommodated, nice kitchen and bedrooms; my kids didn’t want to leave. It’s a quiet place surrounded by farms and can keep the cars inside the garage. I’ll definitely go back to this place on my next visit to Lancaster.
Our stay at the Magnolia Cottage was very comfortable and relaxing. The host’s attention to detail made us feel right at home. The grounds are beautiful, offering splendid views and tranquility.
Lovely, big home. Kitchen was well supplied with dishes and pans. Outdoor patio and grill was great! Huge basement that the kids could play around in. They loved the ping pong table and air tube game! Would stay there again.
Beautiful relaxing location that seems much more rural than it actually is. Clean house and great communication with owners made for a worry-free stay.
It was so nice to stay at this property. Plenty of room for our 7 member family. Loved the layout of the house. We even had a campfire one night. Nice and private too. Didn’t have to worry about neighbors right next door. Highly recommend staying at this vacation rental!
This was a wonderful place for our family to stay while visiting my mom in Elizabethtown. We enjoyed the peace and quiet - and the farms surrounding the property. The house was cozy / well appointed / met our needs perfectly!
Was a great place to host our annual family Thanksgiving. The house was beautiful and exactly as described. Tons of space for the whole family. The hosts were wonderful and very responsive. We would definitely stay again.
