Lovely cottage nice location. Only issue the one bedroom with double bed and bunk bed had a cat odor. The window was open when we got there but it didn’t get rid of the odor. Other than that loved it and it was clean.

Great location to Koziar’s and nearby wineries

Located right on a busy road and beds could use new mattresses, but otherwise it was the perfect place for a weekend. The house was clean and plenty of linens were available to us. The muffins and milk from the farm’s market was a nice touch!

Very accommodating

As always , a wonderful stay here. We stayed here 3 times as its close to family when we are visiting. We never have to worry about breakfast because there is fresh eggs, milk, chocmilk and a sweet treat waiting for us. Always clean and so cozy! Our daughter got sick the morning we had to leave and she was so accommodating letting us have a late check out! Will stay again!

Perfect Getaway

This cottage was much bigger then we expected. Very spacious and very cozy. Beds were super comfy, our host left us stocked with fresh eggs and milk and coffee. We walked next door to their family marketplace and had some of the best ice cream weve ever had. Koziers village was only 10 minutes away. Highly recommend it!

Pleasant and Comfortable

The house is clean and simple. The kitchen was easy to navigate, plenty of items to use for cooking meals. The curtains are sheer, which is lovely as long as you don't need a dark room to sleep.The only downfall is route 183 is a very busy road, which of course leads to noisy nights. So if you need quietness to sleep earplugs or a sound machine will be a good idea to tuck in the suitcase. A nice touch was the milk and bakery item greeting us when we entered. I highly recommend visiting the market. Plenty of yummy foods to choose from. We absolutely recommend staying at the cottage. It is another way to support your local farmer.

Home away from Home to visit Family

We enjoyed our stay here. We loved the cozy quaint feeling of this home and had everything we needed even fresh eggs.milk, choc milk and bread and baked goodies were waiting for us from their farm store! Clean and so cute and furnished lovely. Only thing I would say is its a bit noisy being on a busy highway but our sound machine helped wirh that. Communication was amazing and very convenient to all major highways to get where you need to go. Would stay here again for sure! Thank you!

Home for the Holidays!

Way-Har Farms Ice Cream brings back cherished childhood memories of growing up in Berks County, PA. The cottage is ideally situated for exploring the area's many attractions, including caving, hiking, sightseeing, Kauffman’s Chicken Restaurant, Cabela’s, Yuengling Brewery tours, and seasonal delights like Koziar’s Christmas Village or Hershey Park. The home’s convenient location and two driveways make access easy, offering an alternative to the main road. The host is highly responsive and communicative, ensuring a seamless experience for renters. It’s a fantastic spot for a small family gathering. Thank you for your warm hospitality!

Clean, comfortable, and accommodating

House was clean and comfortable. Host provided some special welcome treats, and also accommodated a last-minute request to stay an extra night. Property was plenty big enough for 4 adults and a dog. Loved sitting on the back porch. Property is located off a very busy and noisy road, so the only suggestion I have is to put shades, blinds, and/or heavier curtains in the front bedroom to block out all the car lights and reduce the noise. Other than that, our stay was great!

Cozy Country Cottage

Hosts had this cottage prepared to make us feel right at home with Chocolate/Regular Milk, fresh eggs and baked goods! There was a hiccup with hot water, but it was fixed in no time! Large living space to fellowship and spend time with family and nice double sink in bathroom. The only downside is the description says there's a washer/dryer, but the basement was off limits due to safety reasons.

Family vacation

We rented the property to visit family and the house was in a perfect location for us. From the moment we stepped in, it was a beautiful home! We walked into some freshly made cupcakes and a little message. It was very welcoming. There were enough beds to sleep 8 people comfortably and to my surprise, they had some toys in the living room! My 4 yr old was excited. It was a very comfortable home that was perfectly equipped for our family needs. Communication from the home owner was great and next time we stay, we can't wait to take advantage of some of the other ammentities. Can't wait to stay again! Great host!

Cozy and Comfortable

We enjoyed our stay at Way Har Guest Cottage. It was plenty big enough for our family of 5....Loved the big comfy couches and blankets for our movie night! The kitchen was spacious enough for our family meals. And we very much appreciated the breakfast supplies and special dessert that was left!! My only complaints are the traffic noise and lights at bedtime. The windows could use some updating / insulating and could definitely use some cellular shades. Overall, the host was very accommodating and the house was cute, cozy and comfortable!

Hiking the AT

This was a great location for hiking the AT. We wanted to check in early, but didn't receive an answer. We were able to check-in on time as they were finishing the cleaning. They have been updating the house and had the septic pumped while we were there. They told us at check-in that they will be replacing the windows. There were no screens in the current windows. The AC unit is in the living room. We stayed in the back bedroom so the truck noise was not as loud for us. They could use some room darkening shades or dark curtains. Since there was no dishwasher, we washed the dishes before we used them. The refrigerator had old food in it. They did leave us chocolate milk, eggs, regular milk and cupcakes which was very nice. Overall, we had a great stay as we hiked the AT and sat outside on the porch which had a great outdoor chairs and table.

Cozy, cute but just know a few things b4 you go.

This is a cute place and the owners leave you some items for your morning breakfast, so that was really great. You’ll find it is very clean. But we felt as though this place is still in process of being renovated. The backside where you can park a car there were stumps and roots and the house on that side looks like it needs painting and updating. Inside the closet doors were off there hinges. There is no dishwasher which is not a big deal, but glasses looked smudged and pans did not look that clean to us. Also, Be prepared to make your own bed when you arrive. (Which if you are arriving late after a long days drive is something you may not want to deal with). You are asked to strip beds b4 you leave as well. Another issue is road noise, as this is on a very busy road. So it may keep you up at night. We felt this place was a little overpriced for what you get. Just giving our honest opinion having stayed and many rentals and do not mean any disrespect to the owners. It’s cozy and cute but just know these things before you book.

As many other reviewers have mentioned this home would benefit from blinds and/or blackout curtains due to being situated at a VERY busy street. Overall, we were disappointed with the cleanliness of the home, the condition of the furnishings and mattresses. Also, there were two big holes in the floor of one of the bedrooms. Altogether the home is in desperate need of a deep cleaning!
