We love it here! This is our sixth time coming to paradise. The house, the pool and the tennis/basketball/pickle ball court are perfect!The house is located in the middle of corn crops, which allows for quiet and peaceful time. The sunsets are beautiful!Additionally, distances to Hershey, Lancaster, Harrisburg are ideal for one day trips in the morning and relaxing afternoons at the pool.Once you visit, you will want to come back.Nancy and Bob are the *perfect* guests!

Another amazing vacation in Mt. Joy!!!

This was our 4th time staying at this property, and it truly gets better each time! The house itself is welcoming and immaculate, with a wonderful set up to allow easy pool access. The pool itself is incredible. Surrounded by fields, it is so so peaceful and relaxing, you truly feel like you're away from it all . My kids swam for hours, only taking a break to enjoy the tennis and basketball court! The owners were unbelievably responsive, even driving over to bring us something we asked about. The firepit was great. We can't wait for our next visit!!!

Rejuvenating and Peaceful

The property was amazing. Well kept up and the owners are great. The views from the property are amazing and very relaxing. The pool was great and the whole house and set up was great. It was my relaxing retreat after visiting Hershey Park with my grandkids. It was a combo or fun things to do and a relaxing place to come back to. We all really enjoyed it. I highly recommend this place.

Great quiet getaway

Great property to disconnect. It's the perfect combination of quiet retreat while still having everything you need nearby. The pool was great, the court was great, and the house came with lots of toys and games. Great choice if you're looking for a quiet getaway with fanily

Hidden Gem

This was a great find hidden behind an Amish farm. The weather was good the week we were there and we had lots of pool time. We played tennis, rode bikes, visited Turkey Hill, walked along the Susquehana, and watched movies. My 11 and 7 year old grands loved it.

Another perfect stay in Paradise :)

We have come to Nancy and Bob’ property five years in a row and we plan to come back. This is a little piece of paradise! The house, the scenery, the pool, the tennis court, the fire pit, all is perfect! And all of this is close by many things to do in Hershey and Lancaster! We look forward to our days here, where we relax, build memories and charge batteries :) Big thank you again! See you in 2025.

Wonderful Getaway

My husband, 14 year old son and I really enjoyed our short stay. The home was perfect for our needs, decorated nicely, and the pool was definitely the highlight of our stay. We enjoyed many hours swimming, having fun, grilling lunch on the BBQ and eating outside. The property was very quiet and private. We did have a little trouble finding the correct gravel road to get to the property through the Amish farm but it wasn’t a major issue. We ventured into Mount Joy and Elizabethtown (recommend eating dinner in the catacombs at Bube’s Brewery in Mount Joy) but spent most of our time in the pool. We found the Sorry game in the game closet and played for hours each night before going to bed. And the sweet treats waiting for us when we arrived were wonderful! Thank you Bob and Nancy!

6/5 outside 3.5/5 inside

The outside of the house was wonderful. The deck was huge, had lots of shade and comfortable furniture. The pool was big and mostly clean. The tennis court was in almost perfect shape, which is amazing given how old it is. The inside of the house was small, the furniture was rather uncomfortable and the tvs were small. We stayed here for the outside amenities and had a great time because of them. We hardly turned on the tvs or sat on the furniture inside, thus why it was a 5/5 for us.

So quite

Wanted some place very quite with no one around and a pool. Perfect place, close to alot of things. We had the 40th. Ann. We wanted. Very nice and clean. It is in farm land so you get the smell and loved watching the baby bunnies in the morning on the deck drinking our coffee. The only bad thing I would say is the master bed is small. Would love to go back.
