About this property

Beautiful riverfront home surrounded by Amish farms in Lancaster

Discover Eagle's Branch River House, the perfect secluded riverfront perch to enjoy the sights and beauty of Lancaster farm country. Our three bedroom, two bath spacious home is ideally suited for a relaxing getaway with family or friends. It has a 'cabin' feel with modern amenities and is beautifully furnished. Three levels with master bedroom suite with its own private wraparound deck, modern kitchen, expansive rec room with river views, and multi-tier decks overlooking the river and surrounding Amish farms.

On a quiet gravel lane, you won't find a better place to unwind in the heart of Amish country! The Conestoga River is a designated water trail and popular for canoeing, kayaking, fishing and wildlife viewing. Our home provides convenient river access on a beautiful stretch of the Conestoga between the historic Bushong Mill and the famous Pinetown and Hunsecker's Mill Covered Bridges.

Most guests enjoy relaxing to the sound of the river rapids, but amenities include large-screen TVs, Wi-Fi and a Weber grill. Quiet and peaceful yet a quick 10 minutes to downtown Lancaster, farmers markets and all the sights and activities.

Also a short drive to many other attractions including Hersheypark, Dutch Wonderland, the historic Fulton Theatre, American Music Theatre, Sight & Sound, Cherry Crest Adventure Farm, Longwood Gardens, Strasburg Rail Road, historic Ephrata Cloister, Susquehanna River and much more.

For families: we have a pack-n-play with mattress included, high chair, books/toys and stroller available for guest use. Older kids (and adults) will love the foosball table and large screen TVs in the rec room!

Take advantage of our one-of-a-kind setting: we have two bikes for guests to explore Lancaster's winding farm roads and rolling hills, a private rustic trail through the woods along the river to one of Lancaster County's famous covered bridges, or you can walk from the house across the Amish farm path to see cows and horses. Evenings are great for enjoying complimentary s'mores or relaxing in the hammock by our riverside fire pit.

Have kayaks or canoes to bring along? There's a wonderful 90-minute paddle route that leaves from the house, passing two covered bridges, an eagle's nest and beautiful farms and homes.

Above all, this is a place to unwind, disconnect and recharge as you explore the sights of Lancaster County.

We had a wonderful girls weekend at Eagles Branch. Everything was great!! The house was very clean and pretty. If we had any questions, Emily answered right away, and helped us out. Ginny and Jack were so sweet as well. Sitting on the beautiful deck by the river was a favorite thing to do. We hope to be back.

We loved our stay! The host was excellent, the neighbors were friendly, and the home was perfect for us. Everything we needed was there and the welcome basket was very kind. One of the nicest VRBO's we have stayed in! My only challenge was my own fault. I twisted my knee about a week before our trip so all the stairs were a challenge! We managed...We look forward to staying again when we're in that area.

Wonderful welcoming hosts with a spectacular river front location. Upon our arrival, the house was beautifully decorated for the holidays. Set amid Amish farms, accessed via a true covered bridge but just off a major highway, this is the perfect Lancaster vacation spot!

Peaceful Riverside Stay

This house was everything we were looking for for a cozy, quiet place to stay for three nights and visit Lancaster. The home was spacious and comfortable, and we loved hanging out at the fire pit at night. The host left some extra special touches which really made our stay more memorable!

Great overall stay. House was clean and comfy. Only drawback was the river was too high to play in because of recent rain, but nothing to do about that. Highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Emily Feenstra

Host profile image
My husband is from the area and we were looking for a weekend getaway spot to unwind and recharge. We've found the perfect place!

Why they chose this property

There aren't many homes on the river and you can feel yourself relax as soon as you turn onto the private gravel lane. The deck overlooking the rapids is our favorite place to spend a lazy morning. We love being in the heart of Lancaster County and surrounded by Amish farms.
