Stayed for a week. House was exactly as described. Communication: John was very quick to respond to any questions. Check-in/out was easy. The house is updated and very comfortable. It is centrally located to everything we wanted to do. Convenient to restaurants and shopping only a few minutes away. We will look to stay again next time we visit.

Everything was Awesome!

We had a fantastic experience with this home. The host had coffee, water bottles and snacks for us - we felt welcomed and thought of from the start. It was well stocked with kitchen supplies and a good iron. The beds were comfy, the linens were high quality, and the house was clean and well decorated. The host was very communicative and easy to work with. I highly recommend this home for your next Lancaster adventure!

Excellent home away from home

We were very impressed with this home. The open concept living, dining & kitchen was perfect for our family to socialize all together. The bedrooms were very large and having 3 bathrooms was a big plus for all adults. We enjoyed the deck and fire pit just off the kitchen as well John the owner was very nice to work with and helped to make our stay even more comfortable. The kitchen was so very well stocked with just about everything you would need! Will definitely recommend this property and come back again.

Great for Families

The kitchen was extremely well stocked. The bedrooms were comfortable and nicely decorated. I'd certainly recommend this home! It's on a busy road. I was a little nervous with toddlers getting in the car and what not. They did great though. They really enjoyed watching cars and trucks from the front porch and playing in the back yard!

Clean, comfortable and homey! Great location!

After much searching in the area for the perfect fit for our family, we found it in this home! The location was great, the house was spotless (and I’m hard to please in that regard), and the personal touches, like cute decorations, good coffee, water bottles, a CLEAN Keurig, and a nice variety of “fun” and healthy snacks made it all that much better. The beds were all comfy, and the split level design made for easy access throughout. We cooked several meals there and had mostly everything we needed - the kitchen was nicely stocked with spices, oil, and sugar. The host was very responsive and helpful. We will definitely consider this home again if we come back to Lancaster for another getaway!

PA Trip

Traveled back to Lancaster for a family funeral. The host and the house were everything we could’ve hoped for. The accommodations are wonderful and fit nine adults and two children. The host was incredibly kind and flexible and replied to phone calls and text messages within minutes. Highly recommend!

Lancaster Hub Location

This location was a great central point for many family-centered venues. Also within a mile of restaurants, supermarkets and gas. The home was ideal for families that need separate activities going on. The furniture and linens were good quality and comfortable. Owner John was great to work with and added many nice touches for guests, ie snacks, bath items etc. We will be back!
