This well cared for home is only 15 minutes west of LANCASTER CITY, near to the Susquehanna River and close to many other outdoor destinations and activities such as the Turkey Hill Trail, Enola Low Grade Biking Trail, Chestnut Grove Natural Area, Shenk's Ferry Wildflower Preserve, Safe Harbor Dam Fishing, Chickies Rock, and the Northwest River Trail. This cottage has a cozy kitchen, dining room, living room with reclining couches, 3 bedrooms, and a full bath all on the main floor. A sprawling, open basement with a full bath, cozy sitting nook, and an outside entrance with a wide doorway that opens onto the driveway, makes a wonderful place to stretch out and relax. A nice sized yard outside is a perfect place to play some games or watch the stars in the clear night sky!!! Wake up every morning, and have breakfast with a few fresh chocolate chip cookies and healthy eggs from our pasture raised flock of chickens!!! And there is no need to hurry home when the weekend is over.......there is reliable, high speed, Wi-Fi here so that you can keep up with business and school away from home. So go ahead and enjoy an extra night or two!!! We have a three(3)night minimum stay($175/night)....or, stay for 7 nights and take advantage of our weekly rate($157.50/night)!!!

The entire cottage is beautiful ! Everything was clean and organized. Plenty of space for visiting. The kitchen has a coffee bar that was stocked and ready as soon as we arrived. The refrigerator was full of food for breakfast and the freezer had ready to bake cookies which we all enjoyed !! The cottage surpassed our expectations. We have family nearby and will definitely see if the cottage is available next time we visit. Thank you for wonderful and relaxing weekend !! Plus, the neighbors even have a farm stand next door with fresh eggs, pumpkins and vegetables !!

Great cozy home

This home was great as a base camp for our travel through local history in the region. It was convenient to Lancaster County proper, Lititz, and Gettysburg. The home allowed us to relax in the evenings with quiet time and provided us a chance to hit the day running with eggs and sausage for breakfast. We will recommend this home to family/friends who may travel to the area.

Wonderful place

Five adults attending an event at Lancaster Convention Center. The rooms were wonderful. Minor issue was location of nightstands in the bedrooms but we managed. Kitchen was fully stocked. I was surprised to find so many provisions- eggs, sausages, milk, OJ, apple juice, pancakes, yogurt, butter, cereal, all the condiments and snacks. Fantastic! Quiet area, beautiful views. We were here mostly to sleep so lack of television wasn’t an issue but I could see it being good to have for a family in the evening or if weather is bad. Wonderful place. We hope to stay here again. Big thank you to the hosts!!

Pleasant State in the rolling hills

What a lovely home. I stayed here with my mother-in-law who was 91 and my husband. We would be happy to return to this lovely home which was so well supplied. There were were more towels than we could possibly used, extra pillows, wonderful kitchen supplies and loads of snacks and breakfast provided. Everything was clean and and just lovely.

Wonderful house!

This property is in rural PA, with gorgeous views and all the amenities! Our kids loved the house with an open basement to play and chickens to watch. Everything was stocked, you truly needed only the food you specifically wanted for the week. The host was great at communicating and even offered their wagon when we thought our 5 yr old couldnt do all the walking we had planned. The eggs and cookies were a wonderful treat! I would say, there aren't any TVs in the house but there is internet. Our kids had a lot to do and we had our own technology. It was awesome! Highly recommend

Perfect Country Getaway

This was an exceptional cottage to stay in with our elderly parents. It was so peaceful and quiet and was the cleanest, neatest place we have ever stayed in. The hosts really went above and beyond with delicious breakfast items and lots of treats. Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your wonderful cottage. We would definitely stay there again!

Home away from Home

We had a lovely time, was nice to get away and have a weekend with the girls. They kept telling me what a great job I had done in finding the right house for us to stay in. The house was beautiful and well located to all the places we visited. We would very much recommend your house to everyone, for a beautiful stay.

Just book it

Absolutely loved this property. The house was as welcoming and homey as your own! The fridge was nicely stocked with essentials upon arrival (even had organic yogurt pouches for my little one). The basement is nice and wide open for little ones to run around! The beds are all firm memory foam which I am not a fan of but of course that is preference!

Peaceful Retreat

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! The home was well stocked with everything needed and even more that we didn't expect - like milk, bread, snacks and so much more! The beds were quite comfortable for sleeping, the living room had great seating for gathering and having good conversations, and the kitchen had plenty of dishes and cookware. It is near many attractions and we enjoyed hiking in the area, Farmers' markets, and the Sight & Sound Theater. Our hosts were kind and thought of everything.

Best place ever

Our stay at Country Haven was so relaxing and cozy. Our host family was great and very accommodating. The refrigerator was stocked completely for breakfast and homemade cookies in the freezer. The beds were very comfortable and plenty of towels for showers. Thank you host family for making our stay one we will need forget. We would definitely come back to Country Haven. It was also a pleasure to meet our host family.
