Great location

We loved the location, one downside was parking, but when you're inner city it's to be expected. VERY clean when we arrived.

staying in the heart of Lancaster

The property was wonderful (I could live in this space). The location was ideal for walking around the heart of Lancaster. From the welcoming snacks to the thoughtful details that provided for our comfort we felt that this choice was absolutely perfect. If the weather had cooperated, we would have loved to enjoy the outdoor space as well. We would highly recommend this booking this property for your Lancaster getaway.

Super clean and everything you need

Thank you for letting us stay at your townhouse! It was very comfortable and had everything we needed plus more. We appreciated the drinks and snacks! :-) We were a little confused by parking but once we got there it was easy enough.

Great stay in downtown Lancaster

This was a wonderful downtown getaway. The house was very clean and had a lot of amenities and niceties (washer/dryer with detergent, coffee maker and pods, napkins, paper towels, tissues, games, etc). It was very nicely decorated and had everything we needed during our family stay. The location was great with a lot of local restaurants, breweries, and coffee shops to walk to. If traveling with kids, there are also playgrounds nearby and the house had tupperware containers which made packing lunches and snacks easy. The host was easy to communicate with, we highly recommend this family getaway location.

What a Charming Rental!

We had such a great weekend staying here in Lancaster. Kim and Steve were super helpful right from the start. We reached out a couple times before our stay and they always got back to us in a timely fashion with friendly advice. Their home is very much as pictured, very clean and had every amenity you could hope for. They had charming touches such as a binder with recommendations and a guest book with a map showing where other guests came from. The house is very centrally located with lots in walking distance. If you are coming this way, this home is a great place to spend your time.
