Great stay in historic Lancaster

The Stage House provided our group with a fully featured experience in the Lancaster theatre district. We were in town for the Roots and Blues festival and the property was in a great location. Our host, Vincent was very communicative and the home was very clean and well appointed. Will definitely stay again!

This home and location was perfect for our stay. We had tickets to a show at the Fulton Theater and it was a very short walk around the corner to the show. The home is charming and well kept. The outside patio was a nice added bonus. The gas cylinder for the fire table was missing but we enjoyed the outside space very much. Vincent responded quickly to all of our questions and was a fantastic host! Parking was a little tricky because the spaces filled up quickly but we parked in the nearby parking garage on prince street and moved the car when a space was available. Many restaurants are in walking distance and the candy shop is a MUST while visiting! We will definitely stay again!

Great location! Info about parking and links for check in didn’t work, however host was easy enough to contact and remedy. As past reviews have mentioned, there was a fly problem on the window sills. They were not buzzing around the place though. What we really liked about this place was that there were no weird smells and nothing was used to mask smells. Beds were very comfortable!

Perfect Location & Charm

We’re very familiar with the city so knew this was the perfect location- such a great little spot. It will for sure be our new home away from home when we visit- the Downtown Marriott is just too hit and miss anymore. Parking was easy and the home was very clean and the bed was very comfortable. One possible warning for anyone with difficulty getting around- the house is of course historic and stairs are fairly steep and narrow.

President's Weekend Getaway

Was the perfect location to rent in downtown Lancaster for the weekend. We typically stay at the Marriott which was only a block or two away. Being able to bring our dog (beagle) with us was a plus! We enjoyed being within walking distance to bars/breweries/restaurants/coffee shops/Southern Market & Central Market! We were able to park right in front of the house with the visitor permit and did not move our car all weekend. Looking forward to renting again!

Nice historic house

Its a nicely maintained older house in a very central downtown location. Sure, there's quirks with an old house, like the stairs to the upstairs bedroom, but it is well appointed and well maintained with an updated interior and in a great location. Bathroom and kitchen are nicely done and we're in nice condition. The wi-fi and appliances work well too. Overall it's nice here and you'll like it if you're a group of adults looking to stay downtown.

Great rental

Location was great, and property was clean and perfect for our needs. We were worried about street parking but were able to find a convenient spot every single time. I echo the other commenter about the stairs to the loft. They worked just fine for us but would be a struggle/not possible for anyone with mobility issues. We thought it was perfect and would for sure stay again.

Very close to the Convention Center. Fully renovated old building. Only issue is that as an old building the stair steps are very narrow, especially those leading to the 3rd floor bedroom. If you are older or have balance issues, it may be a problem for you.

Vincent got back to me quickly when I had questions. On street parking is available as stated and its outside the front door for a couple bucks a day but definitely worth it. Location is great so we walked everywhere. Beds are comfortable but living room furniture not so much. Lotta futons to accomodate lotsa people. As stated in other reviews, the stairs have to be handled carefully and some folks might not be able to manage. Cleaning job could be better and no flies but full fly traps hanging in a couple of the windows were doing the job. Dog enjoyed her walks and no problem crating her as requested when we were out. Place is great for a weekend getaway!

Significant Fly Issues

This property would be nice except it has a significant fly issue. We never left any of the windows or doors open but every time we returned to the house there were numerous dead flies. We were there for 4 days and the fly issue never improved. I informed the property contact, who apologized, but did nothing to rectify the situation. They did not even come to the property to try to find the source of the issue. I also contacted Vrbo without results. Since flies can carry disease and thus be a health issue, I am disappointed Vrbo is willing to market a property with this issue.
