Home is spacious and well appointed. Great location, we went to the Chesapeake bay for crabs, Lancaster and Bird in Hand for antiques and enjoyed the birdwatching and nature in Drumore! House is immaculate, screened porch is a great place for game night. This was our second visit and we are already planning for next year!

The house was clean and lived up to all expectations. Plenty of room, well stocked and sound of rushing brook was wonderful. Hosts were responsive when we had a question about the firewood ( yes, to using firewood as it's provided for guests) and we all had a great time.

The Creekside Cottage was a delightful setting for our family get together. Everyone had a comfortable bedroom and the family gathering area was warm and inviting. The Susquehanna state forest was beautiful, had many easy trails we all could do from ages 3 to 80! The kitchen was well stocked for cooking but more organization would make finding the right pan and bowl easier. There was a large pantry like cupboard that would have been an ideal spot to store the dry products we brought with us like cereals, protein bars, crackers, etc, but these cupboards were filled with mix of cleaning supplies and other items that felt off limits for guests. All in all we loved our stay and would happily return if the opportunity arose.

We had a wonderful stay at this property and would definitely recommend it to others. The host was friendly, responsive, and prompt with communication from booking through checkout, which made everything easy and stress-free.The home was exactly as described—very clean, spacious, comfortable, and beautifully decorated. There was plenty of room for our family to spread out while still enjoying time together. The atmosphere was peaceful and relaxing, making it the perfect place to unwind.We especially enjoyed the access to the little creek, the well-stocked fire pit, and the variety of board games available for all ages. The Wi-Fi was fast and reliable, which was appreciated by both the adults and kids.Although the property feels quiet and tucked away on a scenic gravel road, it was still conveniently located. We found a grocery store just a short drive away, making it easy to pick up anything we needed during our stay.If you’re looking for a clean, comfortable, well-equipped home in a beautiful, peaceful setting, this is an excellent choice. We made some wonderful family memories here and wouldn’t hesitate to stay again. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us!

About the Owner:
Don Wagner - Southern Lancaster County has been my home for my entire life. I live 20 minutes away from Creekside Cottage and had been in the Real Estate business for many years. It has been my vision to create a place for guests to stay while visiting beautiful Southern Lancaster County.
***Sadly, Don Wagner passed away on March 27, 2023. He is dearly missed by family and friends.
The Hosts: Laura & Kara are the daughter & granddaughter of Don Wagner. We are continuing the tradition of hospitality at Creekside Cottage.

Why they chose this property

This property is adjacent to my country cabin and stables. The rich history and natural attractions in this area inspired me to build Creekside Cottage. Come relax and explore this beautiful area!

What makes this property unique

I designed Creekside Cottage with comfort and efficiency in mind. The wood used for the kitchen island, kitchen table, walls in the den and Master bathroom all came from the trees on my property. If you stroll down behind the cottage, you will discover the most amazing natural rock wall. If you desire to visit an authentic Amish community, then this is your place.
May you find peace, comfort and serenity during your visit!
