Another wonderful stay
We absolutely love staying here on the farm. Wilma, Randy and the kids could not be any nicer . We enjoyed all the goodies (milk, eggs, cookies, potatoes, onions, tomatoes and butter) . We appreciated all the recent upgrades on the furniture, porch and air conditioning since our last stay . We always enjoy seeing the cows grazing in the pasture but kind of missed watching the milking process. When staying here, go to Dutch-Way market for the hot soft pretzels . You will not regret it . Thank you again for having us !!!

Amazing and relaxing experience
We truly enjoyed our time with Randy and Wilma. They were not only helpful and kiind but over our time there we became friends. Wilma provides fresh eggs, fresh homemade bread and fresh milk from their farm. The accomodations are great and there is plenty of room to relax inside and out. We enjoyed watching the cows graze as we had our morning coffee on the front porch. We would highly reccomend staying with them. A great and blessed experience.

Not as in pictures, no floral gardens.
Deck was old, not clean- didn't sit out. Fire pit not kept nice, no lawn furniture at fire pit. Was not clean cut area for stargazing so we were disappointed. Inside furniture was well used. (Not like pictures. So many spiders everywhere, (on me, the bed, ceiling, linen closet, floors). Only stayed because it was already paid for. Advertised fresh farm milk- we never had that. We did have eggs and homemade bread and brownies. There was air conditioning. Because it was not as pictured we will not stay again.

Great Stay
I had a wonderful stay at the Fountain Hill Farm in Lancaster County. The house was cozy, clean, well-supplied, and nestled on a beautiful farm. The host was friendly, and the presence of cute animals like cats, dogs, and rabbits added charm. However, the lack of air conditioning and a mildew smell on the towels were the little drawbacks. Overall, a delightful experience with a few areas for improvement.
