The location of this property is wonderful! Everywhere we went it was under 20 minutes to get there and many places only 5 minutes. The house is well laid out and has plenty of room. And it’s pet friendly. We loved sitting on the front porch with our coffee and watching the Amish horse and buggies. Highly recommend!

Convenient and comfortable stay in the heart of Amish country

Perfect place for a quick family getaway to Amish country. We were able to see and do so much during our short stay because of the convenient location and comfortable stay. Juanita also connected us to a blacksmith that did a wonderful demonstration in his shop.

THE NEST was the best.

THE NEST was just that - cozy, comforting, with every amenity we could think of . It was impressive to see how clean and well decorated THE NEST is. The beds were so comfortable. We are planning to stay next year for our annual visit to Lancaster.
