Pool, ping pong, air hockey and darts await in the lower level game room.

Cozy with great gathering places
This was a great place to gather and spend time with family. It has several areas go gather and make memories we liked having the owners close by. They were helpful when we needed them but kept away to allow privacy. We’d stay again for sure

Perfect!
This house had everything you would expect and beyond! We had a group of 7 with both adults and children, and I think we had more fun and spent more time in the game room, at the creek, and playing pickleball than we did at Hershey Park! Plan to come back each year!

Sweet Retreat
We loved this property! So cozy and it had all that our family loves. Close to Hershey, Harrisburg and Elizabeth town. We had a wonderful visit to PA and would defiantly return to this property. When the water was low our kids loved playing in the creek as well as having a fire in the evenings. Can’t say enough good things about the host and the property.

Wonderful Stay
The house is on a quiet road with good access to main roads. We traveled from Harrisburg to Lancaster to Gettysburg to Hershey; all within a short drive. The house itself is clean and comfortable with plenty to do if you just want a place to recharge. My children (with their dad) had fun catching crawfish in the creek and relaxing on the covered patio. The hosts are very close and responsive but invisible until needed. And very pleasant to talk too.

Great Vacation Home
The house and grounds were beautiful. You couldn’t have had better hosts. We were greeted at the house and was shown where everything was and how everything operated. They provided everything we needed and more. The house was very clean and the grounds very well manicured. We enjoyed being out in the country and watching the wildlife and privacy. We were not far from the destinations we wanted to go to. This is the first house I have ever rented for vacation. It was such a great experience, I would do it again.

Perfect location, cozy retreat
Had a great time. House was very nice, clean and roomy. Our 3 teen girls loved the loft area. Owners were very nice. Outdoor area set up great and the deck area was wonderful to hang out on. Close to hershey, restaurants and other attractions. My only complaints are the odor when you come in the house, maybe mildew or just older house but definitely a clean home so not sure. Also needs a tv in one of the main bedrooms. Lastly the listing does not say the owners stay on the property across the driveway. They were not intrusive at all but it was a little uncomfortable having them so close. Would have liked to know that beforehand. Overall a beautiful home in a great location.

Bday weekend
We really enjoyed our stay. Our teens spent their days at the park while we stayed in and went to winery and antique store. It was a perfect little spot to spend our daughter’s 17th birthday weekend. We were able to make breakfast and enjoyed coffee and tea rather than eating out. We will recommend to all our friends when they need a little get away. Thank you!

We stayed at the creek house for our wedding weekend it was beautiful! Cindy was a fabulous host. She was flexible and friendly. It was the perfect place to relax the night before the wedding. We got ready at the venue so we didn't have much time there but it was so pretty. I would love to go back on a less hectic weekend.

Wonderful family experience
My family and I were in town for a conference at the Milton Hershey School. This was a wonderful location, and provided my family of 7 a great place to rest and relax during the day when I was away. With the range of ages we have in our family it’s tough to find a place that ticks all the boxes… but this did just that. The owners were incredibly friendly and accommodating. It also served as a great launching pad for nightly adventures and was close to all the nearby attractions. If we are ever up this way again, we will definitely stay at this beautiful location.

We really enjoyed our stay. It was a perfect stay for our two families. The house was as pictured and the owners were super responsive and wanted to ensure we were enjoying our time.

Wonderful Hosts Highlighted A Wonderful Trip
Our group of 8 had a great time staying here. Tom and Cindy were very prompt and helpful during the whole stay making sure any issues were addressed immediately. The outdoor area is definitely top notch between the firepit and the back patio area. The house was clean, well-maintained, and had a lot of nice features. The one thing we'd mention that wasn't super clear to us from the listing was the creek is probably about 20 vertical feet below the house with a pretty good drop, so just be aware of that if you have small kids. Overall, we had a fantastic trip and would certainly recommend staying here!

Great location- about 20 minutes to Hershey park, close to Indian Echo Caverns and the Turkey Hill Experience. The hosts thought of every possible amenity and were wonderful. The house was spotless, the furnishings comfortable and the landscaping pristine. The stream with crayfish and a games room with pool table, ping pong and air hockey kept the boys enthralled. We were all so glad we rented this lovely house.

We had a wonderful time at the creek house. The house was clean and spacious. It was even nicer in person than it was in the pictures.
