This was our 2nd stay at the Hickory Lane House, our first stay was outstanding and this time was no different. The house was in fantastic shape upon arrival, communication from Diane was great, and the extended roof on the back side of the property allowed all 8 of us to gather and converse while sitting outside enjoying the rain. Highly recommend this VRBO for it's solitude, cleanliness and the great hostess.

This was our “home away from home” for our son’s wedding weekend. It was the perfect venue for the rehearsal dinner and a Sunday post-wedding brunch. The venue was perfect and the weather even cooperated to take advantage of the outdoor decks and fire pit. Owner was always responsive and helpful. Beautiful in every way.

Very beautiful property in a quiet setting but close to lots of good things, moraine state park, grocery store, donut shop, ice cream shop, fresh produce stands, attractions like keystone safari etc. the host was totally attentive. The house was like a real home with everything you needed like blender high quality coffee maker every pot and pan etc. many other places I have stayed had cheap stuff and not enough plates etc. the fire ring was already to go with kindling wood and logs. The host put a lot of care into this very spacious and clean home.

We were in town to visit family and Hickory Lane House could not have been more perfect for our family home base! Plenty of room to play outside, kids got to fish for the very first time, kitchen was well appointed and we wanted for nothing!
First time out!

Amazing house, property, and host! This is our second time staying at this property for a dance competition. We also have a weekend booked for next month when we are back in the area for another competition. The house is spacious, clean, and well stocked. The owner clearly cares about her guests and making sure that they are comfortable and have what they need! She even made a sign wishing our girls good luck at their competition!
