Perfect spot for family get together

We stayed here after visiting Hersheypark all day long and it was the perfect spot for us to stay over. Very close to the park in a cute neighborhood. The house is nicely done for a large family to enjoy, especially the large dining table that comfortably accommodates 12! Great location: close to restaurants, grocery, and other necessities. The owner was very responsive and made check in and out a breeze! I would definitely recommend this place to others!

Visiting Hershey!

My extended family all came together to celebrate my son’s graduation and various birthdays. We were able to walk to a wonderful gluten free Italian restaurant one night and eat around a huge family table another night. So close to Hershey attractions. Just perfect!!

Nice but noisy

This is a beautiful old house with tons of character!! But with that comes squeaky floors and stairs. The house is on a corner and there is traffic noise and train whistles all night. If you’re a light sleeper, this is not the house for you. It didn’t bother most of the people in our group. The kitchen is beautiful and the dining room table fit our whole group of 12. There was lots of space for relaxing. I do wish there were several tv’s for down time. There is only 1 in the living room. I was concerned about parking but there was plenty along the street for all 6 cars.

About the host

Hosted by Cindy Fetty

Host profile image
My husband and I enjoy working on our home, hiking, biking, and hanging out. We grew up outside of Pennsylvania, but really love it here. We are houseparents at a local boarding school for low income children and bought our home as a project, somewhere to stay when we are not working and as a way to make as extra income to help pay for schooling and missions.

Why they chose this property

We loved this home the minute we walked in with all of it's old charm and wood everywhere. It has a lot of character!

What makes this property unique

We have a great front porch swing that might be fun to take the time to hang out on. There are lots of areas in the home to be by yourself even if you have a large group traveling with you. It has a cozy feel and lots of character.
