Second year for our family staying here to celebrate. We enjoyed the home, amenities and outdoor area. Well stocked and owner extremely easy to work with, communication was great!
We had a great stay at the appropriately named "Creek House". A long driveway leads to this large, comfortable home along the creek. A summer visit means bbq meals and relaxing on the large deck; canoe rides; games on the lawn. Rainy weather means staying inside for pool games or movies. Visitors asked, "How did you find this?" Or "Wow, this is really nice!" I felt like I had found some magical place. Reasonably priced especially when you consider what 3 or 4 hotel rooms and eating out would cost. The host is responsive to any questions and supplies a detailed manual. We could not have picked a better place to stay for our twin grand-daughters graduations: highly recommended.
I recently stayed at a lovely house in Mechanicsburg, and I can't recommend it enough! The host was absolutely phenomenal—responsive, welcoming, and attentive to every detail. The property was clean, comfortable, and felt like a home away from home. It exceeded my expectations, and I will definitely be returning whenever I'm in the area. A truly fantastic stay!
Very beautiful property, would highly recommend staying there! Plenty of yard room and room in the house to accommodate the 11 people in are group and it is centered right between tons of attractions. Couldnt of asked for more.
Our club stayed with us and we had so much fun at the house we left the show to come back enjoy the creek! This was the best place we have ever stayed and hopefully next year we can return... but definitely stay longer!!
The house was big enough to host several out of town families attending Messiah graduation. The deck and yard were great for relaxing and playing yard games.
Overall this place was exactly how I imagined. Big enough for 8 guys, some sharing beds. The outdoor amenities and yard was perfect for yard games, grilling and hangin out.
We had a successful and somewhat last minute family reunion in large part due to this special property, its location and the cooperation from the owner. Very thankful!! Beautiful, peaceful, functional and well situated property.
May-2026What a beautiful property! Although we were a small group, this place has plenty of space to comfortably host a larger family. It had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway.There was so much to explore and enjoy, including a great DVD collection. The home is very family-friendly, and the outdoor space was just as amazing as the indoor space.The kitchen seemed to have everything you could need — even plastic dishes and cups for the kiddos.The host was very quick to respond to any questions and gave us plenty of great ideas for things to do and places to eat.Restaurants and shopping are less than 10 min away. It was a bit cool the weekend we were there, so I wish I had brought slipper socks!My favorite part was sitting at the kitchen table working on my computer, having my coffee and watching the geese with their babies out by the water. So relaxing. We will definitely be back.
We chose this property because we needed a large space to accommodate my family and my brother‘s family together. We were looking for a location close to Harrisburg, and this location was perfect and also seems like a getaway. The view from the windows is gorgeous, and also secluded. The bedrooms are very comfortable. We had everything we needed in the kitchen to cook meals throughout the weekend. The owner was very responsive to questions.
Loved our stay. Beds and pillows super comfortable. Teens loved the pool table and the yard was beautiful. Teen girls had a photo shoot in the yard which was really fun. Had everything we needed. William was super easy to get ahold of and responded quickly. Was very helpful when we had a vehicle issue in suggesting some places to go. Great stay. Would love to come back again. Highly recommend.
My father has a lot of mobility issues. This house was perfect. He could sit on the porch and watch my children play in the yard and the creek. It allowed us a very relaxed few days. I found a lovely running trail nearby and we took the kuds to Paulus Farm market for a day of fall fun.
We were very pleased with this house, it had everything we needed and wanted for our trip. The beds were comfortable, the new air conditioning worked great. The property is so pretty!! The kids loved the hammocks outside and the ability to go splash in the creek.
The location of this property is just what we wanted, too: a half-hour drive to Hersheypark and Gettysburg, and we were thrilled to discover there is everything you could need for shopping just 10 minutes away: Walmart, Target, REI, grocery stores, alcohol stores, and much more.

This creekside property was a perfect gathering place for us to bring together family. In warmer weather there are multiple large outdoor picnic tables that you can watch the Creek roll by. For colder weather the home has a very warm, remote cabin feel to it. The remote feeling is especially cool considering you're just minutes away from Harrisburg, Carlisle Pike, and Mechanicsburg dining and entertainment options. It's also minutes from Grandma's house in our case, so we plan on being back! Five stars
We rented this property for a weekend family get together and had an amazing experience. We had questions before arriving and the host was very responsive and helpful. Property is wonderfully decorated with many fun things for the children. An adorable bunk bed, closet with toys and multiple outdoor toys as well. Two other bedrooms with huge comfortable beds and bathrooms attached. The views are absolutely stunning from all of the decks. Property is well maintained with multiple beautiful trees and a water overlook. We will definitely be staying again!
We booked the home for our immediate family of 8 and the proximity to extended family at Christmas. The home had everything we needed, decorated perfectly for the holidays and location was great. The surrounding area very convenient, the grounds around the house as well as basement inside home offered a variety of fun activities for all. Home was well equipped and large enough to host several dinners with our extended family. William was quick to respond to any and all questions in a timely manner. We will definitely return!!
What a great time we had at this house!! It was everything that we expected it to be and then some! We spent all our time either on the deck relaxing or in the creek fishing and chilling. The host was always quick to respond to any questions I had. He definitely goes by the term “my house is your house”.
Thank you for some precious memories with family and friends!! Will definitely plan to stay again if we ever back in this area!

Good space
Good amount of space for the number of people we had. Nice big dining room table and multiple bathrooms. There were ants everywhere, and they even got into the food that we stored in the microwave to try to keep it safe. Wifi was very spotty and sometimes did not work at all. The front pathway was completely overgrown with plants which made it very difficult to walk and carry luggage through.
