Awesome place
this was a great property. we had rented it initially for us and the kids for a reunion but unforseen events caused it to be only me and my wife. I think this would be the perfect place for a family. plenty of room and very peaceful by the creek. the place was a little tricky to find and night the first time but after daylight all became very easy. ran into a scheduling glitch and the owner was more than helpful. couldn't ask for more.

If you’re looking for a spacious and pet friendly home with a beautiful view and peaceful atmosphere, look no further! An added bonus is the short drive to Hershey Park and its surrounding attractions. The host was very responsive and we really enjoyed our stay.

4 night stay to visit Hershey Pa.
Loved our stay. Beds and pillows super comfortable. Teens loved the pool table and the yard was beautiful. Teen girls had a photo shoot in the yard which was really fun. Had everything we needed. William was super easy to get ahold of and responded quickly. Was very helpful when we had a vehicle issue in suggesting some places to go. Great stay. Would love to come back again. Highly recommend.

Great place to stay
Great place for a family getaway. Spacious house with lots of room. We enjoyed changing locations from the kitchen to the dining area, living room, patio or gathering outside by the fire. All had enough space to feel comfortable. The nature in the backyard is just gorgeous. Would definitely recommend this place.

This property was exactly what we needed for our family vacation. We had 3 generations staying here and this home had everything we needed and more. It felt like a home with all of the little touches throughout. It even has a little playroom that my granddaughter loved. The host was very helpful and attentive. We would highly recommend this home.

Family vacation
This property worked very well for my family - 6 adults and 5 children between the ages of 3-9. We all fit comfortably and the extra things that were there for the children was great. We would recommend this property to friends and family and could potentially look to rent this place in the future. The host was great and responded to our questions in a timely manner.

Perfect stay with grandpop
My father has a lot of mobility issues. This house was perfect. He could sit on the porch and watch my children play in the yard and the creek. It allowed us a very relaxed few days. I found a lovely running trail nearby and we took the kuds to Paulus Farm market for a day of fall fun.

This creekside property was a perfect gathering place for us to bring together family. In warmer weather there are multiple large outdoor picnic tables that you can watch the Creek roll by. For colder weather the home has a very warm, remote cabin feel to it. The remote feeling is especially cool considering you're just minutes away from Harrisburg, Carlisle Pike, and Mechanicsburg dining and entertainment options. It's also minutes from Grandma's house in our case, so we plan on being back! Five stars

Wonderful Holiday Retreat Creekside
The property is beautiful and the host went absolutely above and beyond to make our Christmas stay a special one! They decorated the house beautifully and even left a special activity surprise for our young boys. The creek view is beautiful—especially when it snows! The kitchen is fully equipped, and the linens were great quality! This was the perfect place for our family to all be under one roof for the holidays. It’s also less than 10 minutes from lots of amenities. We would absolutely recommend booking this property!
