Nightmare
House was dirty and moss covered. Smell on inside affected my wife’s asthma. Were told just before check in that we needed our own sheets otherwise we would be charged for them. Spiders and cobwebs hanging from lights and ceiling. Air conditioners rusted and falling out of the windows. Animal hair all over furniture and on porch furniture. Just a horrible place to stay

This property definitely needs some updates & a good cleaning. The living room furniture is very outdated & not at all comfortable because of the condition. I was somewhat disappointed at the amount of rust I spotted in numerous areas. I did enjoy the porch & how convenient it was for everything I needed.

Family vacation
The property was quiet and peaceful. Depending on weather, the front porch is a relaxing place. Management was quick and easy to message with. Great set up for our family of 5, with 3 children between 2 and 7 years old. Stairs were steep, but manageable. Clear signs and instructions within the house. Mt. Gretna was a gem in itself with food within walking distance. Overall, lovely stay and hope we can visit again.

Great space for us to gather for a weekend of board games and laughs. It was a bit too hot weather-wise for us to enjoy the great wraparound deck, so we may have to try again.

Cute, quaint & whimsical
Property was very cute, quaint... almost whimiscal & fairy tale-ish. Asdie from a few quirks it really was a great place for our family of 6 adults. They enjoyed walking the area, there was a mini golf course, pizza place up the street & the ice cream shop. Property is close to Hershey park (where we spent 2 of our days exploring), grocery stores & pretty much any thing needed. My favorite part was the beautiful patio area that I visited each morning with my coffee. A few things the place needs is a deep cleaning inside & out. Lots of cobwebs & dusty smell when you first enter. Not all the windows open so it was hard to get circulation going. Couldn't get any TV channels or wifi on the TV, but me being mom, was ok with that. :) The stairs are very steep & narrow & we found the house sloped in several areas. Area was beautiful & we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful house and location
Loved the house. Quiet. Peaceful. A few things I’d like to point out. The downstairs shower was more of a dribble than a shower. Basement had water on the floor. Ironing board should be replaced and put upstairs. It’s so rusty and gross the rust came off in my hands. I couldn’t get it to fold up. The grig had 3 plates of old pizza. We left our condiments there as we didn’t have a cooler. Opened them on Monday so have cleaner take them. Loved all the night lights.

Nice little getaway
The house was super cute. We always use our vacations as a moment to disconnect and reconnect. We spent the week eating good food and talking. Some of the downsides in my opinion were the hottub that did not heat. The bugs that were everywhere it was a wooded area so I totally get it. The TV was also an issue zero channels. I brought my work computer so I could catch up some things so we used it as our TV for the week. It wasn't my favorite place we've spent but it served it's purpose. We had a lovely time despite the hiccups

Nostalgic family vacation!
We had a very nice family vacation at this property in Mt. Gretna! It was an easy walk to the restaurants, shows, etc. Great porch for everyone to hang out on. Easy access to the 1st floor for those with mobility issues (the 2nd floor was a bit steep, but there was a railing). We all appreciated the 2 bathrooms. No problems parking either. Would definitely stay in this very cute home again! Hadn't stayed in Mt. Gretna in many years, and it was just as lovely as I remembered it.

Nice central location for Hershey/Lebanon/Lancaster
Most of our group grew up in the area, but now live out of town, so we wanted a central hub to reconnect with old friends and memories. We spent most of the time out and about, but grilled some steaks one night at the house and ate at the Hideaway a couple nights too. Don't expect luxury, but this place got the job done!

Unique Vintage Home
The property was convenient to Hershey, PA where my activities were centered. It is in a charming neighborhood of vintage homes. Very welcoming property. Neat and clean. Only consideration is very steep stairs that would not work with anyone mobility impaired.

No Linens or Towels!
I've stayed at dozens of properties all over the country and have never had to ask and pay for linens and towels to go with the property. It's an old house that needs to be fumigated. The smell of dampness and mold was repugnant. The floors squeaked really bad. We attend a trade show in Hershey every year and we won't be staying at this property again.

Becky's Gift
Overall a nice, quaint property. Very well supplied kitchen, several games, many books and magazines. Nice, quiet surroundings. My only complaint would be the mustiness of the house - it was a little overpowering when we got there. We turned all the A/C units on in the house and once the A/C ran for several hours, the mustiness was much better. My recommendation would be to ask the owner/reality company to turn the A/C on several hours before arrival.

Large Cottage in Gretna
The size was perfect there were 7 of us and we all had a comfortable bed to sleep in. The downstairs was cute and huge for a cottage in Gretna we had lots of room to spread out in. The large dining table was a treat, the whole family could sit comfortably around it for meals.

I would not recommend
We rented this property for my birthday, for 4 adults. Upon arrival, the mildew smell was overwhelming. The washer would not work properly, the water lines had a continuous pour on to the basement floor. The cleanliness is extremely poor! The air conditioners have mold and dirt caked in them. The path to the back entrance was not able to be used because of weeds. The gazebo was not usable due to mold growth. We left the property a day early, due to the filth and getting bitten several times by what I assume was spiders. We enjoyed our time experiencing Hershey but the house was absolutely miserable for all of us. With some proper cleaning and maintenance, the place would have been okay. I am honestly mind blown that a “cleaner” comes in and “cleans” the place. There was definitely ZERO cleaning being done inside! I am extremely disappointed with our experience.

Cottage kitchen and baths were clean. Rooms are small but serviceable. I am a Realtor, so I have a list of items that, in my humble opinion, should be addressed by the owners. Feel free to contact me if you'd like--I'll be glad to share what would have improved our experence.
