There were four of us staying here for a writer's retreat. We were looking for a place that had space for gathering and shared meals, as well as space where we could work privately, this home fit the bill. It was comfy, had plenty of room to work or relax, and it was very clean. The beds were comfortable and we all slept well. Prior to our stay we had a few questions and the owner responded quickly and was very helpful.While our purpose was more work related, this location of this home is ideal for those wanting to explore Amish country. Intercourse, Kitchen Kettle Village, Sight & Sound Theater, and lots more are just minutes away. (And don't miss Lapp's Ice Cream just a minute down the road.)We enjoyed our stay so much that we'll probably book again this fall. And yes, we got a lot of writing done!

This house was the perfect place for our family Christmas vacation! The house is clean and has everything you need during your stay. It fit our group of 8 adults and 3 kids comfortably. When we first got there, we walked into a warm kitchen with a lit Christmas tree and homemade whoopie pies on the table. Honestly, the best whoopie pie I've ever had. The house overlooks beautiful farmland with frequent horse and buggies traveling by the road out front. The house is within an hour of all the popular activities. We would absolutely stay here again!
