Thank you Alison, great to host your Lancaster stay. Looking forward to maybe a return visit.
This house had everything my extended family needed during their 3 night visit. The house was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The location was super convenient for all of needs and activities. The hosts were very flexible and responsive to our request for check in/out times. It is a great place to stay!

Thank you for the great review, hope to have you again for another visit soon.
This small cottage is very cute, suited all our groups need. We had 8 people yet had plenty of space. There is one full bathroom on the first floor, and a half bath on the first floor. I recommend staying here to explore Lancaster. Great location
The cozy cape was absolutely beautiful. The owners were very responsive. Location of the house to Millersville University is great. Will definitely be staying here again when we come back to visit our daughter.
Great property. Home was very clean and just as listed. Nice and quiet location, close to downtown. Plenty of space for 4 friends on a girl’s weekend away. Would definitely rent again.
My sister, mom and two aunties enjoyed our stay at the Cozy Cape. It was a comfortable place to rest after each days activities. The highlights included: seeing Moses at Sight and Sound and attended the hot air balloon festival.
We had a lovely home base in Cozy Cape when my parents and I came to clean out my late grandmother's apartment in Willow Valley. The house was immaculate and bright and exactly what we needed as a respite from our draining task. Thanks Julie!

Thank you for the great review, hope to have you again for another visit soon.
This house was perfect for our family of 5; it served as a short 2-night getaway. The property was extremely clean and well-equipped. There was plenty of room and nice outdoor space. Communication with the owner was clear and timely. It is very close to a shopping center with several take-out options as well as a Sheetz. We highly recommend this property and would certainly stay again.

Thank you for the great review, hope to have you again for another visit.
Was in town for a religious festival. Just far enough from downtown to not deal with crowded roads but close enough to get anywhere you want within 20 minutes. The only down side is the road outside the house is on a curve and cars whiz by at anytime. The upside is everything you could possibly look for in a VRBO. Clean, cozy, and not too noisy.
We had a great experience here. It was perfect for our family of 6 (ages 8-16). The location was perfect as a home base for day trips to Hershey, Philadelphia, and Amish country. The house was immaculate and beautifully furnished. Julie was extremely responsive and communication was amazing. Bonus: There are tons of towels! It’s a funny thing to mention but I appreciated not having the wash towels everyday while we were there like I’ve had to at other VRBOs I’ve stayed at.
