About this property

Country farmhouse !!!

Historic farmhouse sitting on 15 plus acres of an established horse ranch and equine rescue where we have rescued over 500 horses! Our 3800 square foot home has breathtaking views from every window. The large front porch lets you watch the sun set from your lounge chair while grilling for the family or just sipping on your lemonade. As you enter the foyer you will immediately see 2 separate sets of two steps leading you down into the sunken great . Original wood pegged flooring leads you into the huge eat-in kitchen great for entertaining and an adjacent dining room lined with knotty pine walls and of course you can view all from the built in bar. The second story is hardwood flooring and wood beamed ceilings to continue the theme leading to all 4 bedrooms. The Primary has a kingsize bed and its own bathroom. The second bedroom has a queen bed, the third has a full, and fourth has a daybed with trundle for kids. Plenty of closet and storage in all of them. The common bath has a great soaking tub to end your day of horseback riding or just from sitting on the window seats watching the animals from outside your bedroom. 18 hole golf course is just a hop skip and a jump from the end of our driveway. You are 5 minutes from the bypass leading to Lancaster, Amish Country, farmers markets, street side fruit stands, Dutch wonderland, Hershey Park, Harrisburg, Outlet shopping, Park City Mall, Blue Marsh for water skiing and snowboarding, King of Prussia mall, Sight and Sound Theater, Christmas Village, plus so much more.

Beautiful setting for a Family Gathering

This property is truly beautiful and it was the perfect location for family coming in from out of state. The home was gorgeous and immaculate. We decided to join for a stable tour and it was wonderful. All around a wonderful experience and unlike any we’ve had before at any VRBO property. Highly recommend.

Perfect Stay

Tru and Adriana couldn’t have been any nicer. The home has such a great history and the location and the property are fantastic. We enjoyed getting a tour of the horses that are rescued and hearing their stories. Our grandchildren really enjoyed their pony rides. We had a wonderful stay and would book again! Thanks so much!

We had a really great time staying at Tru's horse farm. It was really special. It was so fun to have the horses walk over to say hello over the fence. Some of our group did the assisted ride and horse grooming, as a bonus. The house is very roomy. Every window faces nature. What an escape. Tru responded immediately to all requests and questions. One thing to note is that light comes into the bedrooms at dawn because there are just gauzy white curtains, but since the windows face trees and greenery, we didn't mind too much. Check in and check out were very easy. We drove into Reading and West Reading (15-20 mins) and hiked in Nolde Forest (15 minutes). Definitely recommend! Plus, the cost goes to such a wonderful cause.

It was good scenery, and closeness

The listing stated 10 sleeps while only three adult beds were present… I had 8 people. And not enough parking. No hot water at the property.

Response from VrboOwner on 2 Apr, 2025
Being an outstanding host is of utmost importance to us for the past seven years, as the stays at the Manor House support our horse rescue efforts. I am not exactly sure why you would state things that are not true, unless it is in retaliation for your late checkout and for the cigarette butts that were found on the property where we do not permit smoking. We clearly reviewed that house rule with you upon check in at which time we also stated that if you can’t find something, you don’t know how to work something, or there is an issue with something to contact us immediately. The only time you contacted us about anything dealing with the house is when you could not get your Xbox hooked up, at which time we immediately came down to the house and offered to let you use ours. As far as your comment about the hot water, we had the hot water checked, and it is at 140° as it always is… I would not understand why you would never mention that during your stay or why you would stay somewhere where there is no hot water for five nights? All the beds are listed in the description of the property. In fact, we even have two additional futons downstairs in the great room. You might want to check those things out before booking next time to make sure the arrangements are what you were looking for. Our listing says we sleep 10 …it does not say there are 10 individual beds. As far as parking is concerned, you asked to park three trucks with three trailers attached to each holding two race cars, plus parking for an additional five cars. We more than accommodated you so that you would have easy access onto the parking area and easily leave each day to go to the races. I respectfully respond.

Weekend get away

Our group came for a quick weekend get away to see the race at Maple Grove Racetrack. We prefer to stay in a home rather than a hotel , this way we can enjoy our time all together. The property was beautiful and peaceful just what we needed ! The house was huge and plenty of space for us all to relax and unwind. We loved talking to the horses and the sweet cat in the mornings before we left for our events.

Horse farm retreat enjoyed by whole family

I stayed with my husband and two young children stayed at the farmhouse for a short weekend getaway and everyone was so delighted with the rooms, common space, and especially the ponies. Tru anticipates your every need and creates such a warm welcome. Our children enjoyed their pony ride and everything was very close, including the Berks County Historic Center, where you can learn about the Gruber Wagonworks. We hope to return again!'

Beautiful, clean, and comfortable farmhouse

Our trip to Tru's place was fantastic! My kids had an amazing time riding and learning about the horses. My extremely shy daughter couldn't wait to get up and help in the barn. The house is decorated beautifully and was very clean. The beds were really comfortable too! Tru is easy to communicate with and even though she was in the barn and teaching lessons she made sure we had our privacy. My family had a wonderful time here!

We loved it!

We had such a great time! The house is super cute- big kitchen that was great for mealtime, great sitting area that doubled for parents to hang out while the kids played checkers near the fireplace. Master bedroom had such a comfy bed! The decor was great and it was super clean. And quiet mornings on the porch with a cup of coffe, watching the horses in the fields was a much loved start to each day. The kids really loved meeting the horses and hearing their stories, and after would try to pick them out in the fields. “I think that one is Bo! Look at how pretty he is out there!” But best of all was Tru! She gave us great ideas of things to do in the area (kids loved the fall festival!), recommended a fantastic restaurant (Austin’s) which we all just loved, and was so welcoming and accommodating. She truly helped make our weekend something special! We will definitely be back! Thank you Tru!!!

A great way to relax and recharge

We are two families with grade school kids who rented the home for a New Year’s Eve stay. Upon booking, Tru reached out to introduce herself and offer suggestions in preparation for our stay. She was so helpful and responsive in the advance preparation for our stay, I already felt welcomed even before we arrived. Upon our arrival, our breaths were taken away by the home. True in every sense of farmhouse chic, it’s like stepping into the pages of Magnolia magazine and it was completely immaculate. It’s spacious and inviting and some of our original plans had been put aside so we could take the time to just relax by the fireplace and hang out. The house sits on a horse sanctuary run by Tru and we made sure to book a package with her for our children to groom and feed the horses, in addition to riding them. As Tru led the tour, introduced us to a number of the horses and answered our questions, we were delighted by the experience and the fact that this was something truly special our kids could be exposed to. This is definitely something to plan for as part of your stay, and is available to adults as well. The home is within driving distance of a number of must-sees. For us, that included the Christmas Village and the Lancaster country-side. Throughout, Tru was always available for more questions and coming to our rescue when we locked ourselves out of the house (sorry, Tru!) This was an unforgettable trip and even better than we had anticipated. There’s truly no better way to unplug and relax, while waking up to see horses grazing just across the drive. Highly recommend, we’ll be back!

Our son’s wedding- we had out of town guests and used the event space for the rehearsal Dinner

The home was absolutely beautiful. The photos did not do it justice. It has all the charm of an older farmhouse with the decor of a model home. Special touches everywhere. And so spacious- plenty of room to spread out. We also rented the event space for 2 events. We did have to provide tables and chairs but the area was great overlooking the fields. The owner was very attentive and responded to my texts almost immediately. I would definitely recommend the house especially if you also want an event. It enabled me to bring all of our families together!

My family and I couldn't have picked a better place to stay during our recent trip to PA. The farm house is beautiful, clean, and very comfortable. The location and surrounding countryside were perfect. One of our favorite things was having coffee on the front porch every morning while watching the horses in the fields. Tru was a fantastic host, very helpful and responsive. We are hoping to stay here again next time we're in the area. Highly recommended!
