I planned a getaway in Ephrata for my wife and my in-laws. The cottage was very nice, everything you could need for a nice weekend exploring Ephrata and Lancaster county. Amy and family were very organized and great hosts. I highly recommend you consider renting this cottage.

Peaceful Getaway

We were charmed by the cottage. We loved the private oasis in the backyard and the birds that shared our company. Every detail of the cottage was pristine, whimsical and welcoming! Amy was lovely to communicate with and took initiative to make certain all was well with our stay.

We had a wonderful stay at this old, but very-well maintained home. It is a sizable “cottage” in a nice neighborhood. It was within walking distance of a very nice community pool that we enjoyed also. It was a little farther from our destinations than I usually like but the drive through Amish-country was very pleasant. There was a musty smell in the home at first but dissipated over the duration of our visit. It was a very nice place to stay and I would recommend it to anyone!

Family trip

Originally from PA, we come back every summer for a quick visit. Amy was a great host and very responsive! We felt very welcomed with local goodies! Plenty of entertainment for the kids and a great layout for 5 of us! House was clean and comfortable! Park and community pool down the street was an extra perk we took advantage of! Definitely recommend!

Autumn in Lancaster

This was a very easy rental. Very clean and well maintained. Not far from Almish territory and way of life. Nice for a getaway. House has aspects of modern things but also still has aspects of traditional Pennsylvania houses. We had a very nice time here.
