A great place for family and friends
My family recently got together with some distant friends and their family. The house and the location was great. We were just 20-30 mins to the Hershey area. The house contained everything we needed to relax, reminisce and make new memories.
Thank you Pat!
Family friendly
This was our second family vacation at the Treehouse. We had a great stay both times. We love Mt. Gretna! Wonderful to be able to walk to the Jigger Shop, two different playgrounds, church in the tabernacle, the fairy garden, lectures, and concerts with our whole family. Also a great location to drive to Hershey, Littitz, the Landis Farm Museum, and PA RenFair. We have not run out of places to visit yet. Wonderful to come "home" to such a comfortable house. Thanks Pat. You are a great host.
Lovely home for family with children
We loved this house and it was nicely located for us to get to Hershey and other surrounding areas. The kids loved having the section of the house to themselves since we stayed up in the loft. Beware though that it is highly wooded and if it storms you may lose power. We lost power one morning because of rain but it didn't effect us to much but of course if scared the children. Very nice being able to walk down to the Jiggershop since the parking gets mighty tough. We loved it and would recommend it to others.
Thanks for your kind words. Glad you enjoyed your stay. The Jigger shop has such great ice cream!
Gorgeous home
The house is spectacular, but was hard to find at night. The weather was terrible which didn't help in our search. Plenty of space in the home and had a couple larger rooms where the whole family could be together.
Glad you found the house spectacular. Sorry the weather was so bad. That does make it tough to enjoy your vacation. MT Gretna is right off of the turnpike and i there are many main roads in. The weather did cause detours.Thank you for staying with us.
Better than the pics
Very roomy had graduation and close to a lot!! Very scenic and definitely fully stocked... are usually bring everything but the kitchen sink and had to leave most of it in the car cleaning products extra towels blankets whatever because it was just as described only thing you need to bring is your food ,your camera and fun !!! Pat Answers all your questions before you even arrive and when you arrive so you make sure that it’s easy-going nothing to complain about! Will be going back
We all enjoyed the atmosphere of the house. Was plenty of room for everyone.
Overall we were please with our stay. A few things need some attention like stove needs some updating or cleaning and linens were very sparse .
