We had a wonderful stay! The home was clean, comfortable, and in a fantastic location—just minutes from Hersheypark, with grocery stores and great restaurants nearby. It was also only about 45 minutes from Amish Country, making it easy to enjoy everything the area has to offer.We did have a minor issue with the stove, but the host responded quickly and resolved it right away, which we really appreciated. Overall, it was a great experience, and we would happily stay here again. Highly recommend!
Our stay was exactly as promised - clean, great location and great communication. It was fun to stay in a historic home as part of our trip included a day trip to Gettysburg with all of its history. Hot tub and sauna were the cherry on top!
Beautifully appointed house within minutes to Hershey Park. We thoroughly enjoyed the outdoor hot tub and backyard area as well as the renovated interior spaces. The owner made sure we had ample information in advance of our stay. It was a cozy retreat and we hope to return!
This property was fantastic for our 3 day trip to Hershey! It was perfectly located for all the things we wanted to do and was a great setup for our family of four.
Spent a weekend getaway here. The location was peaceful and quiet. We had a great time and definently reccomend the Travel Post to anyone who wants to visit the Hershey area.

Thank you so much for the kind review. We welcome you back to the Travelers Post in Hershey for your next Hershey PA adventure! Thanks!
James was a great host and the house was well stocked with essentials. Extremely convenient to downtown Hershey and the park. Hot tub was great for relaxing as well! Highly recommend if visiting Hershey.
The location was perfect to go to a Hershey Bears game and Hershey Park for a weekend. We were so close to the complex and there was plenty of space and privacy. The owners are very responsive and the house was perfect for my family with little kids. We would definitely stay here again!
Great Property & Awesome Location for Hershey Park
Great property, just the right size for the 5 of us. The house is very nicely decorated with beautiful bathrooms. Very historic feel. My grand kids loved the hot tub! Very comfortable bedrooms.
Well appointed location steps from Hershey park. Very clean, quiet and communication with the property owner was quick and easy. Would definitely use again, we all enjoyed our vacation.
Nice house with the hot tub and sauna that was very close to Hershey park. Good location in the area with a short drive to restaurants, grocery store, ECT. Family of 5 and it fit our needs perfectly.
First time using VRBO and I am very impressed. After reading terrible reviews for many of the hotels in the area we decided to check out VRBO and we are so glad we did. This place was well cared for and beautiful. Having our own hot tub was so nice after a long day walking around Hershey Park. Would definitely recommend.
Great place to stay when going to the park. It is super nice and clean. Owner is great and really cares if you are ok with everything and having fun. He checked in on us a few times. Sooo much better than staying at a big foreign owned gross motel that just wants you $
My 3 teens & I loved every second of time we spent in this fantastic house! Super clean & cozy (with wonderfully comfy beds & pillows), and close to all the fun stuff at Hershey! And the hot tub was so relaxing after a long day of rollercoasters & chocolate! If there was another star available we would give it a 6 out of 5!
