Our family had a wonderful stay! The property was in excellent condition and nicely updated. We really appreciated all of the amenities, we weren’t in need of anything during our stay! Would definitely recommend!
Comfortable Oasis Near Everything, Yet in the Country
The property was clean and comfortable, with modern amenities, near everything, yet in a rural setting. The owners were responsive to my questions. Would definitely stay there again.
Convenient to Hershey Stadium compared to other options. Very clean and had everything we needed. Owner provided all info needed in advance in a timely manner depite my booking not showing up on VRBO.
I can’t say enough good things about this adorable rental. It’s on a quiet road about 15 minutes from Hershey Park. Super clean and the owners have stocked it with everything a traveler could need. Highly recommend!
The house was very cute and had everything we needed to be able to prepare breakfast each day. the living room was comfortable to watch TV and the bedrooms were very comfortable. The stairs to get up to the bedrooms were very narrow so may be harder for an older generation, but otherwise were manageable.

Hallmark Christmas
We needed a last-minute place to stay for a few days at Christmas. Emily was very accommodating and got us booked within the same day. The home is warm and inviting and has all the essentials to make our stay stress-free. Even small items such as laundry pods and coffee were available. We were able to have our Hallmark Christmas in the most cozy homes in central PA. Thank you!
My husband and I stayed here when we went to see Stevie Nicks at Hershey. It was reasonably priced and close to the venue, but best of all it was genuinely beautiful and spotlessly clean! I appreciated that there was both coffee *and creamer* on site. The check out process was also straightforward, much less work than I've had to do at other VRBOs. My one comment would be that slightly more detailed instructions on using the lock pad would be helpful as we managed to do it wrong repeatedly-- but the property managers responded so quickly to help us, even at 11pm!
Very grateful and highly recommend it.
We absolutely loved our stay in this comfy 2 bedroom gem.
Quiet location but close to Giant grocery and other terrific spots including Whisk Cafe where we enjoyed a phenomenal Father's Day breakfast - thanks for the recommendation Emily.
Emily our host was fantastic every step of the way from booking to arrival and departure.
The home was perfect for our family - modern appliances - comfortable beds - great internet and nice large flat screen tv in living area.
Small patio outside front door where we sat, had coffee and listened to the many birds singing.
On a scale of 1-10 - we rate this 2 bedroom a 15.
Although we planned our stay around a Stevie Nicks concert at Hershey Stadium which unfortunately was postponed - we made the best of it in our comfy 2 bedroom retreat.
We'll be returning -
Thanks Emily!
The owner was very attentive and fast at responding. We needed to adjust our booking dates and they made it very easy to do so quickly. The home is very cute and was well stocked, so a trip to the store only required buying food and not they typical soap, dishwasher pods, laundry detergent etc. we were very happy with our stay.
Our stay was short but had everything we needed. The inside of the home was precious. Owners have thought through all you would need. Stairs are very steep making luggage hard to get up there but we knew that going in and it did not hinder our stay. Would definitely stay there again.
My daughter and I stayed here while she was in town for an athletic event and the space was perfect for us! Emily was great and we would definitely stay here again! Thank you!
The home is in the middle of nowhere so if you are looking for a quiet place to stay, this is it. It doesn’t look like much from the outside, but as soon as you walk in your energy changes. It’s beautiful. It’s decorated nicely, smells good, and looks exactly like the photos. One thing I would say that needs to be addressed is the way the water comes out the shower head. It feels like a sprinkler system at the amusement park. We went to Hershey Park during our stay hence the reference. LOL. I wouldn’t recommend going outside at night. I went to get something out the car and it was pitch black. A bit scary for a single mom with 2 kids. Overall, I give this place 5 stars. It was lovely and me and my kids slept so good in the comfy beds.
I took my nieces to Hershey Park for the weekend and opted for a VRBO rental instead of a hotel. I am so glad I made this decision. This house is charming as described and so aesthetically pleasing. The beds were the most comfortable I have ever experienced. I always have low back pain when staying in new beds. Not this time! The living area and bedrooms also have separate modern climate controls. My nieces especially loved the coffee/tea cart with variety of coffee pods, Tazo teas and creamers. There even was to go cups with lids to take with us which we did every morning. This rental has everything you need and it is only a 15 minute car ride to the heart of Hershey. Emily also stopped by while we were out to make sure the smart TV netflix was working for us. If we ever travel this way again I hope this rental will be available! You will not be disappointed if you book this rental!
