Trolley House

We had a lovely memorial weekend at the trolley house, but unfortunately, there were various factors that negatively impacted our stay. We would have appreciated if the listing had disclosed that the bedroom is on the third floor to plan ahead for accessibility needs. The second floor had a distinct rotten egg smell throughout our stay, which we suspected came from one of the radiators needing to be cleaned. We knew due to the historical significance of this location the building would not have the best infrastructure or window/door seals, but the third floor bedroom was absolutely crawling with ants, spiders, moths, etc, all over the floor and on the bed. It was evident the place wasn't properly cleaned before arrival due to the squashed bugs left all over the floor, walls, and the cobwebs throughout the house. The bed itself was so squeaky it was difficult to sleep uninterrupted. Finally, though the house is situated on a back road, we were up all hours of the night due to heavy motorcycle activity on this through street. We did enjoy spending time on the porch swing, and the house had a plethora of books, magazines, and games for all ages. The binder of local attractions was very thorough and we enjoyed the complimentary whoopie pies!

So much character!

My wife and I have stayed in another property owned by Tom & Amanda and were disappointed when it was booked on the date of our getaway. Tom suggested we take a look at the Trolley House, so glad we did. Trolley House is a beautiful little house built in 1860. Updated tastefully in a way that maintains its character but makes it very comfortable. We found it to be just close enough to our favorite spots around Lancaster but far enough to be very private. We loved everything about it and will definitely be back for another getaway weekend. Tom & Amanda are fantastic hosts, we highly recommend staying in one of thier beautiful and clean properties. Also, loved the classic PA whoopie pies waiting for us on the kitchen island:)

Unique and Quiet Place To Relax

We really enjoyed our stay at this unique spot as a couple's getaway before our newest baby joins us in a few weeks. We stayed here over a chilly weekend and the home was cozy and comfortable, with lots of charm. We enjoyed getting to explore the surrounding areas a bit as well, and went for a drive to get lunch in the Lancaster area one day, passing several Amish farms along the way -- complete with horse-drawn tractors, buggies, sprawling and well-kept farms, and a different pace of life. Perfect for a weekend of quieting the mind, book-reading, walking the nearby trails and escaping the noise. It is rather remote, and we did read to bring food and personal supplies ahead of time, which was wise. There were lots of utensils, blankets, books, speaker, etc. provided but not much other than k-cups (which was absolutely communicated, we were just glad we were noticed this and brought all of our own supplies as a quick trip to the store would have been difficult!). We also really enjoyed the outside area and fire pit. This home covered all the bases for us. Overall it is a unique and lovely place. Thank you for opening your Trolley house up to us! Great memories.
