Nice house, 3 bathrooms were great when you have more then a couple of people. Big kitchen, master bath was nice with a shower and separate bath tub, lits of towel provided! master bedroom was aslo large . We definitely recommend this house for a nice stay
This place was a great weekend get away. Located in a wooded neighborhood on a hillside, this location was less than 30 minutes from Hershey and had lots great options for dining experiences in the area.
The pictures of the screened in porch sold us and it did not dissapoint. We too k our dogs with us for the first time on vacation and it was so worth it. Loved the relaxing
This is our second year staying in Mt Gretna for the Renn Faire and our first stay at this location. The house was clean, comfortable and fully stocked with everything we needed for a long weekend stay. Perfect for groups and families and also our fur babies!
The place is beautiful and very comfortable for a family. The views are also beautiful.The only drawbacks are that the steep driveway is not ideal for parking especially in inclement weather. The other part is that I specifically asked if the place would be decorated for the holidays with the tree since we were there over Christmas and it was not decorated. All in all- we had a nice stay.
We spent a long weekend with a good amount of time relaxing on the spacious and delightful porch. Walkable to restaurants and for exploring Mt Gretna. A very nice spot for a getaway.
What a cute property! Love that the lake and playground are so close. We didn’t get a chance to check out the ice cream shop or any of the restaurants since we made ribs for Father’s Day so we hope to come back! Thanks for a great time!
We have rented at Mount Gretna many times and this property is the best that we have stayed at. The location was perfect, close to everything yet secluded. The kitchen was equipped with all of the necessities and more. The rooms were large and the furniture was comfortable. We plan to come back in the summer when the shops, restaurants and lake are open and we can enjoy the outdoor living spaces.
We had a lovely stay in the cozy historic cabin. Feels like a 1950s movie with all the updates of modern living. Our host had all the information available in emails and at the house.
We have been coming to Gretna for nearly 40 years! For the last few years to enjoy the peace and quiet of autumn. This house is so comfortable and well equipped with the plus of being dog friendly. Can’t recommend it highly enough!
Very nice cottage. Great size rooms. We were only there for a few short days & it rained like crazy. We still made the best of it utilizing the very large & well equipped kitchen. Family time around the dining room & lounging on the beautiful porch. Definitely would request another stay 😊
A lovely cabin in the Mt Gretna woods - near the lake and the shops! Very toddler friendly (much appreciated) and functional! The grill ran out of propane on the second night and we thought there could have been more attention to the cleanliness of the entry way porch. Otherwise a nice break for our family! Thank you!
