About this property

Log cabin nestled beside Chiques Creek in historic Lancaster County

This 3-bedroom home is a great place to get away and relax or as a home base for your tour of historic Lancaster County. It is located minutes from Hershey Park, Lancaster County tourist spots and the Spooky Nook Sports complex (home of the US Women’s Field Hockey team) yet apart from all the traffic on a quiet rural street close to Siegrist Mill covered bridge.

Built on the foundation of an old grist mill, the home provides history and charm. Fall asleep to the sound of the mill race right outside your bedroom window. Spend the day watching birds from the sun porch or just enjoying life while watching the creek and its variety of wildlife from the front porch.

A relaxing vacation.

We planned our entire vacation around one event. We had made reservations at The Sight and Sound Theater. We had reservations for a Thursday afternoon show. The rest of the week we just went in and shopped at local stores, ate at local restaurants and spent a couple of days just relaxing around the cabin. The cabin is very homey and a great place to relax and get away from the daily grind of life. We will definitely stay here again.

Another great stay!

This was our third time staying here since January of this year to attend volleyball tournaments at Spooky Nook. It was exactly what we needed. Three athletes and the moms. Much better than staying in a hotel. Space to spread out, a full kitchen to prepare meals to have instead of eating out the whole weekend, definitely more economical to split with three families than individually each staying at hotels for multiple nights. Host was easy to get a hold of and very responsive.

Perfect for our volleyball tournament at the Nook!

Simple and comfortable accommodations close to Spooky Nook and more affordable than a hotel room! Having a full kitchen saves money on all the endless eating out you tend to do if you are traveling for these tournament too - a great bonus to going this route! This was our 2nd stay this club volleyball season and we will be there one more time in April too! Can't wait!

Quiet retreat

This location was perfect for me: rural, quiet, and picturesque. Space with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths made this very comfortable. Seemed like we went to stay with owner's grandparents based upon age of appliances, decorations, and mismatched kitchen dishes and utensils. So would have been happier if the home had been updated a bit more and purged of grandma and grandpa's old stuff.

Family PA weekend

We found the house very easily with the directions. As we got to the driveway, we were VERY DELIGHTED with the log cabin! The online outside picture does not do justice. The setting is , serene, and beautiful. The inside was very clean; we were able to adjust the thermostat to our comfort. Our only reason to give four stars instead of five was due to the musty closed-up smell in the air. Maybe dehumidifier or remove carpets. That is our only suggestion. We plan to return for family functions and would be happy to stay again. Thank you for an overall great experience.

Close to Spooky Nook

If you’re in the area for sports at Spooky Nook I recommend staying here. It’s a ten minute drive to the facility, costs less than a hotel, and has the comforts of a home without being cramped with your family in a hotel room. I’ve rented here twice and while it does just fine when we are at tournaments.

Cozy and clean next to a creek

We have stayed twice at this property. We enjoyed our stay both times. The house is cozy and clean. My children said it reminded them of staying at grandma and grandpa's house. Thanks for a nice place to stay while we visited family in the area.

In town with my wife and 3 friends for an archery tournament at Spooky Nook. Very comfy house, had no problems at all. Super convenient and will definitely look into this location next year for the annual tournament. The owner Kathy was very communicative and helpful.

Cozy Getaway

The cabin was clean and cozy. We enjoyed the outdoor scenery with landscaping, covered bridge and creek. Very close to the facility we had to be at. We would stay there again. It is perfect for needed getaways!
