Overall had a fantastic stay. Only slight issue was the electronic lock wasn't working when we got there. Called The Host and was in within a few minutes. The house was spotless and well-stocked. During our stay it snowed. Brian was out first thing in the morning clearing all of the snow around our vehicles and parking space. Furniture placement was well thought out and added quite a bit of character to the house. We were very comfortable throughout our stay in a very relaxing atmosphere. The train came by about three times a day at variable times. The kids enjoyed throwing snowballs into the coal cars as they went past. The view of the river and the mountains covered in snow was great to wake up to in the mornings. Will certainly be returning in the future.

This was a great experience. The house is beautiful and the view of the lake/river even more so. We spent a quiet weekend in the lake house. There are lots of amenities in the house, A/C, tv, internet and much more. close to the lake and not far from Lancaster PA. Highly recommend it.

About the host

Hosted by Brian Ament

Host profile image
I am always rejuvenated when I'm here at the river. I get a feeling of tranquility seeing the eagles and other wildlife in the area. I love being able to just jump on my boat ( any excuse is a good one ) and take a ride on the water. Let me tell you about the Safe Harbor Indian Petrogylphs and the local history and botany.

Why they chose this property

If you like getting away from it all, need to unwind or great place to play ~~ you found it!
The best area for boating, from waterskiing to kayaking, or fishing. We are close enough if want to have a nice dinner & show. The Fulton Opera House, the American Music Theater, Sight & Sound and several movie theaters are only 1/2 hour drive. If you are new to the area, come discover Amish Country, antiquing in Columbia or experiencing the clock and watch museum.

What makes this property unique

The Lake's tranquility and all the other things it has to offer may be the reason why the Indians chose to live here. Check out Indian Steps Museum, The Conestoga Historical Society, Canal Lock 12, Tucquan Glenn Nature Preserve , relax ~~ fish, boat or hike.
