The first house I have been twice

I've rented dozens of houses for vacations, but this is the first time I've returned to the same one. My friends who joined me were also amazed by the beauty and convenience of the house. I doubt I'll find another place like this again while traveling for golf with these friends. John, the homeowner, was impressively quick to respond and incredibly kind.

Beautiful country home

The house and surrounding area was beautiful. The house was well stocked with paper goods, soaps and coffee. There was ample room for our group of five but could have accommodated more. We had a great time and enjoyed the house.

Gap home

The house was perfect for our family needs! The house was spacious for 4 adults and 4 older children. We stayed in Gap for 3 weeks to clean out my mother’s home in Elverson. It was only a 30 minute ride and the countryside was beautiful! The grandchildren enjoyed watching the Amish go by the house in their horse and buggies!We would stay here again but we would hope the owners got a new bed in the master bedroom because it was not usable and repaired the hot tub This is a beautiful home and quiet neighborhood. We were thrilled it was available for us. Thank you!

Exquisite Modern house in Amish country

Stayed at house with friends and kids. House is very spacious and has many rooms adults and kids; lots of space to spread out. Hot tub and outside space is perfect for families and basement was a great hangout for kids. Kitchen is perfect for cooking large meals and enjoying time with family and friends. Location was great to intercourse/Kitchen Kettle. The home owner, John, was great. We actually checked out and forgot phone in house; texted John and he quickly responded and remotely let us back in to retrieve our phone. He was very responsive throughout the process. We will definitely be returning in the future.

Great house!!

This is our 2nd stay at John’s place and we intend to continue making it an annual visit! It’s centrally located near many things to do in Lancaster County and close to conveniences as needed. The home is immaculately clean, spacious, comfortable and quiet. We would recommend for those traveling as a family or with a group of friends. We love this home and enjoy working with the owners very much. Thanks for a great stay!

Large homes with lots of amenities

We were a group of four adults and four kids and there was definitely enough space for everyone to comfortably enjoy the house. Kids would play downstairs in the basement, while the adults enjoyed the expansive open concept kitchen/living room. Kids also enjoyed the hot tub on multiple days, parents enjoyed the fireplace and we also grilled one of the nights. Beds are extremely comfortable, too! Would stay here again!

Perfect Family Meetup

We recently stayed at a beautiful house in Gap, and it was the perfect retreat for our family of 11! The space was just right, providing us with the peace and quiet we needed to reconnect. The home itself was lovely, with all the amenities we could ask for. We especially enjoyed the hot tub and the backyard fireplace, which made for cozy evenings together. The grill was a great addition for family cookouts! We were in town for the James Albright Memorial Golf Tournament at Moccasin Run Golf Course, and this house served as a fantastic gathering place for our family coming in from New Jersey and Ohio. Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. Highly recommend!

Three generation family trip

This was a wonderful home for our family vacation. Very clean, very well stocked. Lots of space both inside and out, for whole group activities, talking and eating. Also numerous spaces for small groups or alone space. Good communication with host during visit. Excellent WiFi, one person was working part of the time we were there. Backyard fenced but also trees blocking views of other properties - great for playing and also family photo session. Felt pleasantly secluded, but it wasn't.

Fantastic property in the heart of Amish country!

We loved the area and scenery. Close to Dutch Wonderland for our little ones. The home was perfect for our large family with the whole range of ages. The outdoor space was amazing and the host was very accommodating with our wanting to use a baby pool/slip n slide. A few minor maintenance issues, like loose toilet paper holder and a broken bed slat, but nothing that would keep us from coming back. Absolutely loved our stay! Thanks John!!

Large Lancaster County Home in quiet location

If you are looking for a large home in a quiet location this is the place for you! The four upstairs bedrooms and three full baths easily accommodate 8 adults. There is an additional bedroom and powder room on both the first and lower levels. The outdoor space is quite comfortable for enjoying casual breakfasts and evening chats around the fireplace.

Family time

The house was very comfortable and spacious. Plenty of room for the toddler to move around. We had a rainy weekend, so were not able to enjoy the outside fireplace or patio. There was a lot I liked about the listing, but the two king beds and one queen bed made the decision for me. Again, the upstairs rooms were very spacious and comfortable. We would stay there again.

Book it, it's perfect!

We traveled to John's place with our (almost) 2 year old son and his grandparents. The first person to arrive immediately texted me and said "this house is perfect! I want to live here!" - which basically sums up the visit. It was perfect for all ages (2 to 80!) and is far better than the photos even can show. We had hardly any babyproofing to do and it was quickly safe for our son to explore. The floor plan on the first floor was great for keeping eyes on him and for keeping everyone in the group included. It was perfectly clean, easy check-in and check-out and had everything we needed. The bedrooms were a great layout for large groups and we were even able to use the closet in the master for our son's pack and play because it was so big. The backyard and basement set up lend to perfect spaces to hang out and relax. We cooked all our meals at home and the kitchen was well equipped and spacious. There are plenty of televisions, games, and books to provide a variety of entertainment for everyone. The location was quiet and private while also being a short drive (20-30 mins) from most major attractions in the Lancaster area. I looked at several properties across several sites and couldn't be happier I chose this one. We plan to make the trip an annual tradition, in large part to how well the house worked for our group and how much fun we had.
