Caroline is very responsive and an excellent host. Her home was extremely clean, in a great location, and perfect for our ladies getaway weekend! Thank you!
Beautiful home. Everything was as stated in description. Great location. Within walking distance of many restaurants, Buchanan Park and West Art venue.
This was our second time staying at this charming home. Close to downtown, easy check-in, just like the pictures online. We will definitely stay here again.
This property was in a great location and had everything we needed. Beds were comfortable and the towels in the baths were high quality. The only negative, and it is a mild one that can’t be addressed, is the the stairs as very steep, which made for an awkward descent in the mornings and could be difficult for those with bad knees or for small children. It wasn’t a big enough issue than we would have not booked, but it is something that would have been good to know in advance. The hosts were very responsive and though we didn’t require it, their offer to have a parking permit available for us was very thoughtful. We would stay here again.
This home was absolutely perfect. It looked just like the pictures online. Perfect location to downtown (walking distance), bed was extremely comfortable and owner was very helpful in arranging a parking permit. The home has everything you need for a relaxing stay. We will definitely rent this home again.
The home was exactly as listed. Very clean. Clear communication. Parking could have been confusing due to road work and permit restrictions but the host provided a clear, map at check in that made it a breeze. Stayed with 4 adults and 2 kids; all had enough room. We stayed due to a lax tournament about 10 minutes away. Loved the space and the access to restaurants between/after games. Would stay again.

Disliked: Listing accuracy
This townhouse is in a nice area close to many restaurants and shops. But the sheets smelled so musty we had to strip the beds and wash the sheets. The coffee pot did not operate correctly and the coffee tasted awful. We got locked out because the keypad did not work and had to wait outside for the renter to respond and ultimately she had to come and replace the batteries. We politely asked for a discount for our troubles which she refused. We love Lancaster and have stayed at many places that we loved but this host did not respond to our concerns in a satisfactory manner.

Response from VrboOwner on 19 Dec 2025
Thank you for your review of our property! Here are all the steps we took to address your concerns:
1) Responded to your lock out inbox message within 25 minutes and called to walk you through how to properly operate the lock.
2) After you were able to gain access to the property, left a family birthday party to come check out the lock in person to make sure it was working correctly to provide you peace of mind. Upon inspection, the lock was working as intended, however, I purchased and installed batteries for your peace of mind
3) Offered to descale the Keurig while onsite incase it was contributing to your concerns about the coffee's taste. The offer was declined. Unfortunately we do not have a coffee pot onsite and Keurig coffee is not as strong as traditional coffee pot coffee.
4) The sheets are always laundered between guests, so I hate that you felt there was a musty smell to them! — that’s not the experience I want anyone to have! I happily would have changed the linens with fresh sheets had I been alerted to it before you went through the trouble of laundering them yourself. However, I promptly alerted my cleaner and we both investigated the next day.
5). Offered a $50 refund for your concerns, however you were seeking a 50% discount off your stay and the company does not provide such large discounts once services are rendered.
Thank you again for your stay and we wish you well in your travels!
We stayed at 417 Lancaster for my son’s basketball tourney. Myself, my son and three team mates. The house was cool. The egg air conditioning works fabulous. It was very comfortable and inviting.
Overall this VRBO was excellent. The house is on a residential street and located within walking distance to some great restaurants and shopping. THE PROS:
Location-We walked to several places during our stay. Located close to Central Market and restaurants.
Comfort-The house is modern, decorated beautifully, has 3 large bedrooms and one and a half bathrooms. Washer,dryer and dishwasher.
Cleanliness- The house was very clean. Plenty of towels, trash bags, etc.
Very clean and comfortable property in a nice location. Everything was up to date and felt exceptionally clean. The beds were very comfortable and the property was as described. We were in walking distance of restaurants and ice cream shop with very easy access to downtown area. You cannot park directly in front of the property during the week without a permit, but there was easy to find parking at the end of the block. It was not a problem to park for unloading our things and then find a spot for the car overnight. Would highly recommend this property if the bed and bedroom configurations meet your needs.
This 3-story row house is on a one-way narrow city street, which kept traffic to a minimum and made for a relatively quiet location. Some great restaurants, taverns, and microbreweries are close by, and Central Market and other downtown locations are within easy walking distance.
It's an older row house in the city, so there's some occasional traffic noise, but it's generally quiet with access to street parking.
The house worked well for our group of 6 people, with each couple having its own bedroom. Just about everything in the house worked as expected. It had a large dining table, which made for a nice gathering location and work area. (Since 4 members of our group were working remotely during the day, that was important.) With the wi-fi, they could work and take calls at different locations in the house.
The appliances are new, and the kitchen had everything we needed, although we didn't cook a lot. If you're planning to cook all of your meals there, you might find that you could use another pot or some kitchen gadget that might be useful, but we got along fine with what was provided.
Being near F&M college made for some nice neighborhood walks and jogs on the college track. I was able to walk to a local restaurant/brewery and meet friends for lunch.
Our host checked in with us and was very responsive. She dropped off a bath mat and helped us with parking, which was much appreciated. We plan to return during our next visit to Lancaster.
My friends and I loved this VRBO property! It was incredibly clean, beautifully decorated, and cozy/relaxing. A fabulous location within a short walk to many attractions in Lancaster city. The property owner was lovely to work with and provided all the amenities! I’d recommend this home to anyone!
A friend and I stayed here for a girls' weekend, and we could not have been more pleased with the property. Every need was anticipated, and the property manager even reached out to help arrange a parking permit for the weekend. Absolutely wonderful experience!!
This home is beautiful and very comfortable! It’s a great location and has plenty of space. It was just what we were looking for for a weekend in Lancaster for our family of four and in-laws! Thank you so for a wonderful stay!
