Quiet Campmeeting Location

Great four-bedroom seasonal cottage for a family visit with siblings coming from three different Pennsylvania locations. While unseasonably cool, the gas-fired fireplace quickly warmed the cottage, ground and upper floors. Enjoyable stay.

This 1st Street cottage did not disappoint. The perfect description is a traditional cottage with modern updates in the kitchen and bathroom. If you explore the kitchen and dining area cupboards, there are extensive place settings, serving bowls, and glasses. Also some small appliances. The wrap around porch is a plus. Loved our weekend at this property.

Wrap-around porch elevates outdoor living. Functional kitchen makes meal times easy. Four bedrooms give everyone their own space. And there’s parking! We would be happy to stay again at this quaint and comfortable cottage.

Cozy, rustic, antique cabin. Full of charm!

We had a lovely time staying at this property. The cabin was charming and antique with a huge porch. We loved the claw foot tub, the fireplace, and the proximity to the Pennsylvania Renaissance Faire. We only wished we'd had more time and indoor space to hang out together!

Loved the stay and the peacefulness of the area. The only negative was the one bedroom did not have a twin bed nor single. It was more like a bench with a pad but other than that we loved it!

Lovely cottage. Beautiful antiques. Perfect layout for our family. So enjoyed the games and the wraparound porch. Internet would be a preferred addition. We had a great time, celebrating our 50th anniversary❣️

Authentic gretna cottage, with some appreciated modern conveniences

This lovely cottage is beautifully furnished with antiques, but also has updated and very functional bathrooms and kitchen spaces. The location and porch are also wonderful. Our group really enjoyed our stay. The only misleading part of the listing is the claim that the 4th bedroom has two twin beds. The one twin bed was very comfortable, but the other “bed” is just a small upholstered bench.

Perfect weekend

We lucked out with perfect cool weather for the weekend. Not sure how cool the house would be with typical August temperatures. The house was clean and the beds were comfortable. When we were at the house we spent most of our time on the porch or walking around in the neighborhood. Very friendly neighborhood. The inside was dark and could use some better brighter lighting.

This is a very cozy cottage that feels like visiting your grandparents house or a summer lake/ hunting cabin, very spacious. We had a great time. We loved the porch swing, the smell of wood and old antique furnishings. It’s is nestled into a cute community of houses that have walking paths, everything is walking distance in Mt Gretna. A slice of Americana summer time paradise.

Just charming and rustic! The kitchen is well-appointed. The overall vibe is old-school lakehouse/ cabin/ camp. The porch is to die for. We had never been to Mount Gretna before, but chose it because it was very close to the PA Renn Faire, which we were attending with our children and their spouses. I would recommend 100%. Please note, the houses are very close together, so maintaining the quiet the neighbors expect and deserve may be difficult with pets.

Charming area and home. However, not the best experience for our family due to July heat and power outage. The listing states that cottage is air conditioned, but has only one window unit to serve the entire second floor and one on the first floor. We needed to sleep with windows open which made the fire sirens on both nights especially unwelcome.
