We were in Hershey for a tournament and the house was the perfect location to everything. While the owner lives on the property it was nice to have him so close if you needed anything. The boys enjoyed the big yard and volleyball net. We enjoyed our stay.

The location and outdoor space is beautiful. The kids enjoyed the yard and the parents the front porch. The listing is a bit misleading as there are only 3 actual bedrooms, the 4th bed is in a loft that’s open to the living area. Overall a great place to stay.

Amazing!
The house was big and had enough space for our whole group. The fire pit in the back yard was so nice to use! It was huge! The kitchen was well stocked but a few pans had seen better days. The walls are thin tho so you can hear everything. The beds where also squeaky but nothing you can't get use to. The yard was also really big. We had more than enough space to play yard games.

Great stay close to Hershey!
We really enjoyed our stay! We used every room to accommodate our family and played in the outdoor spaces as well! The yard was a great place to play with the family and take walks! It was 15 min to Hershey so everything was easily accessible. Kitchen well equipped. Host helpful. Would recommend.

Cozy Cabin
Our party of 8 including two kids had a nice time at this cabin very close to Hershey. Enjoyed the gas fireplace a lot.
Hosts went out of their way and were very responsive when we asked them for help with something, which we appreciated.
Sharing in case helpful to others - I didn’t realize that one of the bedrooms is an open, second story loft. There isn’t a door to that room - it overlooks the living room. The bed is far back and behind a corner so you don’t feel like you’re sleeping in the common area or anything.
Thank you for a nice stay!

Recent stay in Hershey
Booked this property for a family vacation in Hershey. Overall, I would give this place a fair rating. Property inside had a distinct smell that initially was unpleasant. Some aspects of the property showing its age and in need of repair (3rd floor shower & back deck). Could not find the fly swatter until the final day, need more utensils, spatula, mirror in rooms, and wash clothes for bathing. I was unaware that the owner lived on site until we checked in.

Nice place for family
What a great place to meet up with relatives! We had three families meet here for a home base during a hersheypark visit. We loved the home and the property. We enjoyed a fire one night and a chance to catch lightning bugs! One downfall- you can hear everything in this home. Yes I could hear my brother snoring in the bedroom above me! And one suggestion to hosts - more utensils - or a suggestion to future renters to bring plastic utensils. We had a group of 9 and needed to clean forks and spoons for every meal. An easy fix though- overall a nice stay!

Perfect spot for a winter family gathering
Both the house and the grounds are beautiful, and the hosts were the most thoughtful we have ever come across. We gathered for our first post-pandemic family Thanksgiving, with guests from 2 years old to 97 years old, and everyone had a wonderful time. The house had everything we could possibly need, and the hosts made the whole stay as comfortable and welcoming as possible. The outdoor fire pit was a special treat on a chilly day!

Great weekend near Hershey Park
This was a great house for our weekend reunion get together. It was a short drive to Hershey Park (which was fun but super crowded) and than a wonderfully relaxing place to recover the rest of the weekend. We sat out on the deck or patio each morning with our coffee, the kids played for hours in the yard and we cooked and even had a great fire for s'mores. Perfect for the 5-8 year old age range of our adventurous kids who enjoyed playing ball and catching bugs.

Lovely weekend girls trip
I rented this property for a girls getaway. We actually live locally, but the big open living space was perfect for a night in with appetizers and drinks and games, with enough seating for the whole group. Saturday morning we did yoga on the back patio and it was absolutely beautiful with the view! The owners were very nice and made for a really great rental experience. The location is great and we were able to visit local wineries and the casino for a show. Highly recommend this rental!
