Our fully private backyard is a guest favorite. It includes a luxurious 3 person hot tub, Breeo firepit for grilling, and string lights to create a warm atmosphere.

Check out my favorite local attractions:
Village cafe .2 miles
Agape cafe & grille 6.8 miles
Cherry Crest Adventure Farm 4.8 miles
Historic Strasburg and Sight&Sound theatre 6.9 miles

For the children we offer a pack n play, high chair, and children's books/toys.


The Amish Guest House is a separate rental that is also on this property. But no worries as there is fences and a stategic layout in place to offer both rental groups their own space. We have never had complaints about lack of privacy.


My wife Cathy and I live about a mile from the House so we will be available to help out with most questions and issues if there be any. Feel free to text, call or email at any time!

Amish run Cafe is only a stones throw down the street. Coffee shop also two minute walk, with live music every Friday and Saturday Night. Tons of shops in the Kitchen Kettle Village a 3 minute walk.

Walk, bike, take car. It all works:)

The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful, so please be aware this is not at all ideal for a high noise level or partying.

Me and my family had a great little getaway at this cottage. The cottage was one of the cleanest we’ve stayed in, it was stocked with plenty of snack and toiletries, and it was just down the street from all of the shops and restaurants. We loved the back yard fire pit and hot tub. We would stay again.

Daniel and Cathy’s property is the perfect spot to stay when visiting the tourist attractions in Lancaster County. The cottage was sparkling clean and stocked with snacks and some beverage options. The cottage itself was perfect for my husband our pup and me. Conveniently located within walking distance to Kitchen Kettle Village and other restaurants and shops. We would stay there again.

The cottage is perfect for a couple's getaway and had everything we needed. The host even left a variety of snacks on the counter. We had a small issue with the heat that we probably caused, and host came right away and left us a treat for the hassle. We did not get to use the patio area or the hot tub in back, but it is really nice spot.

We came to unwind and brought the dog. It was really great. As another guest mentioned, there was a fence but not "fenced in". But, we found a nearby park which was perfect for our pup. Very nice accommodations. I would recommend not more than 2 people.

The cottage was very nicely done. Warm and inviting. Very clean- just as pictured. The back yard area was wonderful. The fire pit set up was nice- even though we didn't get a chance to use it. I will say it is not as private as I would have thought with the hot tub area- that would be my only con to the stay. Close to everything we wanted to explore. A very cute little place for a couple to just stay and relax for the weekend.

Great weekend getaway

We had a great stay! The cottage was the perfect spot for a weekend getaway that was dog friendly. It was clean and the hot tub and firepit were great amenities. Only thing was that the backyard was not completely fenced for the dog, but she still loved it. We would definitely stay here again.

Awesome weekend getaway

This was a nice getaway spot for my wife and I. We have stayed in quite a few vrbo’s over the years, and I have never seen one as well stocked as this one. There were plenty of towels and supplies to last through our trip, and plenty of snacks and coffee with all the extras you could imagine.
