Welcome to your 3 bed, 1.5 bath home away from home in Ephrata, Pennsylvania! Our newly renovated, single family home is on a quiet suburban street, with easy parking and keycode access. As a family of multiple children and furry friends, we have found that some places are easier to vacation than others. We hope our home will be comfortable for both you, your kids, and your dog on your upcoming visit.
You'll walk through the front door into our living room and see our huge comfy sectional, and a 55” smart tv, with Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, and ESPN+ already signed in and ready for you to use. In
the dining room, there is plenty of seating for the whole family, and depending on your mood- coffee or drink bar. The large sliding glass doors in the dining area open right out onto our deck and pool area (Pool is currently covered and closed for maintenance). Right down from the fully outfitted kitchen is our half bath and our doggie lounge area, featuring dog couches, crates and beds of all sizes. Past that is the GE front loading washer and dryer and the back door to enter into our large fully fenced in backyard! Depending on the weather, it can be hard to keep to keep our dogs clean and mud-free, so half of the lawn is a dedicated pup potty spot outfitted with artificial turf and gated off from the grill and lounge area. On our second floor (6 steps up) you will find all 3 bedrooms- All three are outfitted with gorgeous queen size beds, two with luxury
plush mattresses and one with a firm, to offer you a choice. All three rooms feature beautiful, locally crafted furniture. Located within a few hours of New York City, Philadelphia, Washington DC and Baltimore, our quaint little town of Ephrata sits outside of the City of Lancaster, in the heart of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Lancaster County is of course known for the Amish community and their unique and rustic culture, surrounded by picturesque rolling hills and fields, and quaint country stores. Known for its excellent fine dining, historic architecture, and fine arts, Lancaster City boasts numerous theaters, galleries, bars, and cafes. In the center of the city of Lancaster resides America’s oldest continuously operating farmers market. Central Market bounds with locally sourced fruits and vegetables, baked goods, freshly cut flowers, and so much more! Even closer to our little town of Ephrata is the picturesque town of Lititz with its world renowned Wilbur Chocolate Factory and incredible dining, unique festivals and tree lined storefronts. Of course we also have the scoop on Ephrata’s best small town attractions- within 5- 10 minutes you will find cafe’s, pizza shops, authentic Mexican and Dominican eateries, craft breweries, wine tasting, and farm fresh fruit and vegetables from our local amish farm stands. And can’t forget- Green Dragon farmer’s market on Fridays. Some well known attractions in our general area are Hershey Park and Resorts, Sight & Sound Theater, Dutch Wonderland theme park, The Pennsylvania Renaissance Faire, Spooky Nook Sports complex, and Tanger Outlets for some excellent shopping. For the outdoorsy and nature lovers, popular attractions are the Rail Trail- popular for walkers, runners and bicyclists year-round, the trails at Nolde Forest, watching the snow geese flock by the thousands to the Middle Creek Wildlife Preserve, the Wolf Sanctuary of PA, and of course Longwood Gardens. We are also closely located to Adamstown, PA known as the antique capital of the US - numerous antique malls and shops, with enough variety and intrigue to keep you shopping for days! So much to do and see in our area. We can’t wait for you to enjoy your stay!
