It was so nice to have so much space for the family to come together for Thanksgiving in Mt. Gretna. The camp meeting is such a quaint and quiet area. Also thankful to find a property that is so welcoming of dogs!

The check in was very easy. The location was good. Having both bathrooms on the second floor made it difficult for anyone who has mobility issues. Overall very comfortable.

Place was very cute. Had a few issues but they responded right away and corrected things. Enough space for our group of 6. We were only there a few nights but the place and area were amazing. Quiet but yet still things to do.
