The pros: Our family of 17 wanted to find a place that fit us all. This place did that great. Most adult couples got bedroom suites and the kids shared bedrooms. Plenty of common areas to spread out, including game rooms upstairs. It was 30 minutes from Hershey Park and 50 minutes from Gettysburg, so a nice central spot for our 5-night stay. The outside patio has a fire pit and patio tables (but it was generally too humid to spend much time out there). Beds were comfortable. These were all big boxes to check and the house did that for us.Critiques: It was unusually hot that week (90 and humid) and the common room ACs had trouble keeping up. (each bedroom has an individual unit, which worked well for sleeping). As is listed, this is an old property and has historic charm. The bones of the house are good and has potential. But the appliances are dated, the furniture and carpets are... "lived in", kitchen drawers and cabinets are bursting with utensils and cookware that seem to have accumulated over the years, the dining room is simply folding tables and chairs. It wasn't dirty, per se, but in need of a deep cleaning.Did we enjoy our stay? Yes. It's old, charming, and as advertised. But we couldn't help but look around and spot where some investments could make this an amazing 5-star property.
