Surrounded by quiet fields and woods

Relax on our spacious porch with views of Sherman's Creek and Pisgah Ridge. Watch the hummingbirds during the warmer months and the wild turkeys in spring and fall. Keep an eye out for the bald eagles who are almost always overhead. Listen for the red-tailed hawks. Wander in our woods or on beautiful local trails. White-tailed deer visit early and late. Or drive to Hershey Park, nationally recognized Carlisle Car Shows, Harrisburg or Gettysburg attractions.

Refreshingly peaceful, beautiful, and serene!

My wife and I stayed for a couple of days and it was exactly the peace and relaxation that we needed. Spacious, clean, and lovely place located in a beautiful pasture not too far from a creek. Morning walks down the road were so enjoyable and we checked out some local parks, towns, and wineries that were just a short drive away. Very highly recommend for the nature lover/solitude seeker!

Quietly restorative

My wife and I soaked up the quiet, restfulness of the property. Sitting on the porch, reading in front of the fireplace, and walking in the autumn sunshine were restorative and delightful.

Peaceful weekend

This was a quiet little house in the middle of a field. The covered porch looks out towards a mountain with a creek (can’t see the creek). We was some deer, bald eagle and some other wild life. Inside was charming. My wife spent most of the time on the porch reading. About 15 min from several great little restaurants and 30 min from Carlisle for bigger town amenities.

Sort of like coming home

We checked in for our second stay and it all felt so familiar, like coming home, only better, especially in the mornings. I love sitting on that big porch, coffee in hand, watching the world wake up. We spend our days tooling around the area, discovering things to do and come home to a comfy bed to recharge in.The place is so quiet and surrounded by such beauty! This year the leaf color was gorgeous and we were visited by a porcupine! Inside and out it’s full of little surprises. Love it, and love our host as well. Thanks Lynne! Perfect relaxing vacation! come home to

A charming escape

Lynne has an incredible attention to detail that made the entire stay that much more beautiful and memorable. We loved the fire pit and porch swing. Whether we were listening to the rain on the roof or looking up at the stars, that porch was perfect. We loved this stay!

Great stay for R&R

Lovely, quiet, and private stay without any neighbors in sight. House is neat, eclectic and comfortable. Large front porch is a delight to relax on. We stayed put most of our stay except for a pedicure the one morning at Little Valley Hair Salon. It was perfect for the quiet R&R we were looking for. Lynne was great about checking in through email, but gave us our privacy.

Quiet Weekend Getaway

Perfect spot for peaceful, quiet weekend getaway. Property was better than expected. It felt secluded and private while not being too far of a drive to find shopping/restaurants. Although, other than taking a scenic drive we opted to stay put and enjoy the quiet. Interior is well appointed with whimsical touches that are a nod to the natural surroundings throughout. The owner, Lynne, was available for questions and nearby if needed, but respected our privacy. We are hoping to return soon!

Beautiful

Lynne's house is exactly as described. Coming from Philly the first thing my partner and I noticed is how quiet and peaceful it is. The living area and porch of this cottage look out on a mountain ridge, and it was within easy driving distance of trails, parks, historic towns along the river, and other points of interest. Lynne was always right there if we needed, but respected our quiet time and privacy as well. Just lovely.
