About this property

Surrounded by quiet fields and woods

Relax on our spacious porch with views of Sherman's Creek and Pisgah Ridge. Watch the hummingbirds during the warmer months and the wild turkeys in spring and fall. Keep an eye out for the bald eagles who are almost always overhead. Listen for the red-tailed hawks. Wander in our woods or on beautiful local trails. White-tailed deer visit early and late. Or drive to Hershey Park, nationally recognized Carlisle Car Shows, Harrisburg or Gettysburg attractions.

Quietly restorative
My wife and I soaked up the quiet, restfulness of the property. Sitting on the porch, reading in front of the fireplace, and walking in the autumn sunshine were restorative and delightful.

Peaceful Serenity
Words can't describe how beautiful & peaceful this property is. The one bedroom home is lovely & spacious, with unique & beautiful touches throughout. The owner, Lynne is very friendly & communicative. We spent most of our weekend on the spacious porch, sitting on the porch swing or rocking chairs, looking at the stunning view; hearing nothing but the birds & sounds of nature. Lynne has a large hummingbird feeder hanging right near the rocking chairs & porch swing; we were mesmerized by the three hummingbirds who spent the majorty of the weekend coming to it ... so close in proximity we could hear the loud buzz of their quick moving wings. We made a campfire each night, and sat quietly on the porch listening to rain patter on the roof during the day. It was so serene & peaceful, without a neighbor to be seen. If you are looking for a place to relax & renew, this is where you want to be.

About the host

Hosted by Lynne Pickens

Host profile image
I am an older person who likes to build things. What began with tree forts has morphed into years of property rehabs and finally into Lynne's House. I'm also an avid gardener and bird-watcher. The tiles in my house are primarily made by me here on our farm.

Why they chose this property

My husband and I have lived on our lovely farm for 45 years. It is a pleasure to share what we have learned to take for granted. having guests here helps us see it with new eyes.

What makes this property unique

This valley is quiet. It offers wonderful views of nature, star gazing, peaceful evenings staring into the fire and a break from the tumult of the rest of the world.
