About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

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.

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.

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 Serenity
Words can't describe how beautiful & peaceful this property is. The one bedroom home is lovely & spacious, with unique & beautiful touches throughout. The owner, Lynne is very friendly & communicative. We spent most of our weekend on the spacious porch, sitting on the porch swing or rocking chairs, looking at the stunning view; hearing nothing but the birds & sounds of nature. Lynne has a large hummingbird feeder hanging right near the rocking chairs & porch swing; we were mesmerized by the three hummingbirds who spent the majorty of the weekend coming to it ... so close in proximity we could hear the loud buzz of their quick moving wings. We made a campfire each night, and sat quietly on the porch listening to rain patter on the roof during the day. It was so serene & peaceful, without a neighbor to be seen. If you are looking for a place to relax & renew, this is where you want to be.

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.

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.

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!

A big slice of Heaven with a topping of whipped home
Exactly as described and then some. The warmth, playful details throughout the house, and the overall inviting coziness made this getaway more than memorable, more than perfect and incredibly difficult to depart from. Lynne was communicative, thoughtful and more than helpful throughout the whole process, and she has truly created a space that is both practical and fantastical. We will definitely be returning to enjoy the quiet beauty of the property as well as to explore more of what the area has to offer.
