Amazing views. The bald eagles were there every morning. The host was very friendly and accommodating. I will be booking again.

Rented both sides for a few days to keep us close to daughters wedding venue and allow room for parents and others. Was very peaceful, all the amenities that you need and a very beautiful view of the river and sunset. Saw bald eagles everyday as they perched in a tree right in front of the house about every night. Over all a great place. We may go back just for a relaxing getaway, even though we're only an hour away and we live in the country, this place was even quieter and more relaxing with the view.

Wow! What an absolutely beautiful property and weekend for our family!! We had the best time enjoying hundreds of butterflies all around, fishing from the dock, playing horseshoes and just enjoying such an incredible view.The house was beautiful and clean, the yard was well maintained and the neighbors were great company. There's a bonfire pit as well so we made sure to stock up on local firewood from a farm on our way into into town and it made for such a peaceful night by the lake. The owner was super communicative when we needed something small (peroxide for a cut), kitchen was fully equipped and the town felt very safe and quiet. We also went tubing down the local pequea creek from sickman's mill and it was such a cool local experience as well! (Jimmy juice was awesome!) Highly recommend this stay, we had the best time. :)

We loved the views, the eagles and the house was awesome!Brian was very helpful, and responded right away to a couple of questions we had, would book there again.

We had the pleasure of hearing these 2 eagles singing each morning in the tree above the house, it was awesome.

About the host

Hosted by Brian Ament

I am always rejuvenated when I'm here at the river. I get a feeling of tranquility seeing the eagles and other wildlife in the area. I love being able to just jump on my boat ( any excuse is a good one ) and take a ride on the water. Let me tell you about the Safe Harbor Indian Petrogylphs and the local history and botany.

Why they chose this property

If you like getting away from it all, need to unwind or great place to play ~~ you found it!
The best area for boating, from waterskiing to kayaking, or fishing. We are close enough if want to have a nice dinner & show. The Fulton Opera House, the American Music Theater, Sight & Sound and several movie theaters are only 1/2 hour drive. If you are new to the area, come discover Amish Country, antiquing in Columbia or experiencing the clock and watch museum.

What makes this property unique

The Lake's tranquility and all the other things it has to offer may be the reason why the Indians chose to live here. Check out Indian Steps Museum, The Conestoga Historical Society, Canal Lock 12, Tucquan Glenn Nature Preserve , relax ~~ fish, boat or hike.
