Cozy Escape
We loved our stay! The space is beautifully decorated and colorful. The porch was very relaxing and peaceful. It was a perfect location to stay with the family. It is close to all attractions including the PA Renaissance Faire, Hershey, and Dutch Wonderland. The campground is gorgeous! We would stay there again in a heartbeat.

We either walked or had a very short drive everywhere. Walked our dogs and rode bikes on the Lebanon Valley Rail Trail, took a drive to Troeg’s Brewery and enjoyed relaxing on the screened porch. A very pleasant experience.

Very clean & neat; delightfully decorated. Good location. A little surprised about having to bring our own supplies, but that was my fault for nor reading the instructions from Penn Realty.

Unique neighborhood
Second time staying with 100 year old tiny cottage. Interior was clean. Air not stale. New nice windows. Shower in claw foot tub was new experience that I found a bit unsafe, slippery and no bars or anything to hold. There’s a fire station very close by and very loud alarms go off at any time. We did like this cute neighborhood and walking was fun. Lots of stray cats adorn the area and we saw kittens too. Probably not great for the environment, yet sure fun to see. Historic church tabernacle with entertainment too. Great restaurant the Hideaway in walking distance is a must.

Wonderful stay
We had a great stay in Mt. Gretna. The cottage is adorable and impeccably clean. The new murphy bed in the adjoining upstairs bedroom works like a charm and is very convenient. The property owners/management company were 100 percent responsive with the few questions we had before our visit. We had no need to contact anyone while there as everything was exactly as it was supposed to be. I highly recommend this property.

The house is very nice and updated. If u have problems with steps and getting in and out of a old iron tub beware. Would highly recommended. The real estate company did not respond to us as we needed to stay a few extra days and on VRBO it was available. Stayed at another residence without all the fees. Great. Location. Only one of 4 remotes had batteries in them. The porch area and back could have been cleaned up. The chairs by fire pit rotten. Overall I still would recommend and hopefully the Penn Reality who lists through VRBO takes care of these issues. To nice a property to not be perfect.

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review, Ray! We are sorry you missed our messages back to you - we did respond twice through VRBO and would have gladly accommodated a longer stay. We also have to mention that the fire pit and chairs belong to the cottage beside this one - they are not part of this property. Thanks for letting us know about the batteries for the remotes.

Excellent stay at Mt Gretna Campmeeting cottage
Our family of 3 really enjoyed our stay at this Mt. Gretna cottage. It was comfortable and cozy for our family of 3 and our 2 dogs who were traveling with us. We enjoyed walking around the community and exploring the neighborhood. It was convenient for the activities we had planned in the area and close to excellent hiking trails. Beds were comfortable, check in was easy and we enjoyed nearby meals at Mt. Gretna Pizzeria and the Hideaway. All within walking distance. Thanks for a great stay.

Reunion for Milestone Birthday
March of 2020, life long friends were coming from Texas and Chicago to surprise me for a milestone birthday. The plan was to “ kidnap” me for a girls weekend of fun. Lock down happened and nothing happened; until our fabulous Mt. Gretna weekend. I spent my summers as a child at Mt. Gretna because my Grandparents had a place there! The cottage was so fabulous and comfortable! Great location to walk all over Gretna or a quick drive to places like Lititz or Lancaster.

Steps from the everything in town
My wife and I were in (the area) celebrating my 40th high school reunion. I spent my childhood and college summers living and working in Mt Gretna and wanted to share the experience with her. Even though the Jigger Shop had closed for the season we loved our two block walk to the Hideaway and up to Governor Dick. We loved the front porch swing and spooky Halloween decorations. Our host was professional and easy to communicate with and we LOVED the cabin :) Thanks Fred and Felicia

Lovely Cottage
We had a dog agility trial in Palmyra which was the perfect opportunity to visit our friends' lovely happy place in Mt. Gretna. Rental arrangements were easy and prompt. The house is adorable, comfortable and perfectly decorated. The community is quaint, quiet and friendly. We wish we had visited when the daylight was longer because the front steps aren't lighted after dark. That was easily solved with a flashlight.

This stay really felt like a home with lots of personal touches that let you know the owners care about the property. Loved all the features (TV, AC, kitchen, etc). The location is great: very quiet and peaceful. Would be nice to have access to the street/parking map a little earlier as Google maps does not know some roads are 1-way or pedestrian only.

Fun spot
Relaxing and unique place. Well cared for. Be aware that fees are a lot higher than you’d guess and that the local businesses don’t allow dogs anywhere even though the house did. Even though absolutely everything in the town was closed down when we were there mid week, we had a good time just walking around the neighborhood.

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review, Jennifer! We are glad we were able to extend your stay! While we cannot control fees VRBO charges for bookings, Penn Realty is changing their fee structure for next season, in an attempt to be more accommodating to our guests. We must say, if you did bring your dog along, you were not charged for nor did you pay for the pet fee! With the exception of service animals, businesses generally do not allow pets, but this cottage is definitely pet-friendly! We are glad you enjoyed walking around the neighborhood - you will have to spend a weekend here again!

Mt Gretna Campmeeting (near Hershey PA)
Very cute cabin. Handy location for visiting Hersey, Lancaster farms, Covered Bridges. Stayed 4 nights - just the right amount of time! Good food for all meals nearby. Very quiet area. Very small kitchen, don’t plan to do more than make snacks! Great 1/2 fridge/freezer and countertop ice maker! Comfortable king bed upstairs.

Very sweet cottage!
My husband and two children stayed at this cottage for a brief vacation. We enjoyed listening to the choir from the front porch on Sunday night and we were in town for the art show! I felt comfortable letting my 12 year old walk around the campmeeting area by themself to see all the quaint cottages and find all the little details around the neighborhood. The laundry facilities were very helpful as we went to the lake each day and had a lovely time!

Enchanted little getaway
I grew up in Hershey, PA. I always loved visiting and exploring Mt. Gretna as a kid and would imagine what the historic cottages might look like inside. They each have such unique character. So this trip was a bit of a childhood dream come true for me and it honestly was just the getaway our family needed! This cottage is warm and welcoming and fully equipped with what you need to make it your home away from home. We especially loved the screened in front porch and porch swing, small yet fully functional and upgraded kitchen (loved the Keurig coffee maker!), and very comfortable master bedroom. The house was comfortable and accommodated our family well, including a 5 year old and 11 month old. And as far as Mt. Gretna goes, the cottage's location cannot be beat. Our favorite thing to do was to take daily walks with our son to admire the multitude of unique, historic homes, many of which have fairy gardens and/or other art forms for the passerby to appreciate. We also loved walking to the Jigger Shop, Porch and Pantry, and the Hideaway, all of which provided excellent dining experiences. Mt. Gretna is short distance from many local attractions. We took the kids to Hershey Park, Chocolate World, and Hotel Hershey, visited Indian Echo Caverns in Hummelstown, went to the Strasburg Railroad and train museum, and did a little antique shopping in downtown Lancaster. Next time we hope to spend more time relaxing in Mt. Gretna, renting a kayak at the lake, hiking to Governor Dick, and visiting a local winery without the kids! I should mention that the rental company handling this property was excellent in quickly responding to my questions and communications before, during, and after our stay. I really can't say enough about this place. If forest bathing in a historic, enchanted, artsy little community sounds good to you, don't miss out on this great vacation rental. We absolutely loved our stay and hope to return soon.

Mt. Gretna
Overall our stay was fantastic! Would have been nice to know there was not a normal size refrigerator and also a drip coffee maker. However there is a keurig coffee maker. A French press would be useful as an alternative. The tub shower is difficult to get in and out of for someone with limited knee mobility and is tricky to bath.

Very nice stay—would definitely come back!
Check-in and checkout were seamless. This was our first time visiting Mt Gretna and we were there for a wedding. It’s really charming and everything is within walking distance. The lake was closed so I’d love to come back in the summer when everything is in full swing. The house was cute, comfortable bed and a modernized bathroom. We couldn’t figure out how to work the stove, and Frank from Penn realty was at the house within 5-10 minutes to solve the problem. Overall we had a wonderful, relaxing couple of days :)
