The Neighborhood:

The Jolly Rancher is nestled in a small, quiet neighborhood, perfect for unwinding after a day of adventures. You’re within walking distance to a grocery store and shopping center, and just a five-minute drive to all Hershey attractions—including Hersheypark, Chocolate World, downtown Hershey, and more.



If you’ve stayed with us before or seen our other listings, you might recognize the area—The Jolly Rancher is located right next door to our other property, the Cocoa Chateau! Traveling with a larger group? Book both homes for an even sweeter stay with more room for everyone.



Getting Around:

The Jolly Rancher is located just 15 minutes from Harrisburg International Airport, so you'll be relaxing in no time. If you're arriving by train, the Middletown Amtrak station is only a 15-minute drive away.



Once you’re here, you're just 5 minutes from all things Hershey—including Hersheypark, Chocolate World, and downtown Hershey. And if you’d rather not drive, Uber and other rideshare options are easily available to help you get around with ease.



Other Things to Note:

🚂 A train track is located nearby, and while the train usually does not blow its whistle, you may hear it pass by occasionally. Noise machines are available in every bedroom for added comfort.
