Nice, quiet and clean home. The formica kitchen counter is lifting up and needs either glued or replaced, but besides that, it's a very nice place to stay with everything you need. We would stay again.

Simeon and Barbara both grew up in Lancaster county and went to the local amish one room school.
In the year 2000 Simeon & Barbara and Simeon's brother and sister in law bought the 12 acre farm together (which included a house and Mobile home) where they both lived until brother and sister in law bought the land next door and built a new house.
Note : the existing mobile home had been replaced with a new one in 2006.
