Quiet, Beautiful Property
We were visiting family in PA for a Celebration of Life. We loved staying on this property. Our boys enjoyed the chickens and the cat, Harvey! It was quiet, just what we needed. We'd love to stay again. Thank you!!!

Gorgeous home in peaceful setting
Our family met here for a post-Christmas/New Year gathering. We had hoped to spend some time snow tubing nearby but unfortunately but unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate. We had an absolutely lovely time regardless and spent a lot of quality time playing games and spending cozy evenings with family. Harrisburg is very close by as are many parks for hiking, grocery stores, restaurants, etc. We had everything we needed for a great long weekend. The property was very clean and the overall vibe is peaceful and relaxing. It was nice to get away from constant business to take it easy.

Fairytale Thanksgiving
We needed a place to host our family for Thanksgiving. Well Jennifer and Rob worked hard to provide the greatest experience we could ask for. Gorgeous, well maintained, well renovated property which provided ample room for our extended family to gather for thanksgiving and a romantic getaway for myself and significant other through the rest of the weekend. 10/10 would recommend. We can’t wait to come back!

Great getaway home!
Property was nice and clean. The commercial oven and stove was a nice touch, took us a while to figure it out but we did, lol. The detached guest house was a nice surprise. We didn’t use it though, we were comfortable enough in the main house. The master bath is huge and the sinks at each end were nice. The home book with recommendations was a great tool to have especially since the area was new to us. The host was very responsive and answer all of our questions. Overall we had a great time and would definitely book this property again.

Perfect Home To Relax - Chill - Unwind & Be Together
Very well-maintained and cute farmhouse! It combines rustic with updated comfort. There is a King Suite on the 2nd Floor with tons of room and an awesome bathroom. On the 3rd floor, there are two twin beds and room for an air mattress (if the kids want to stay together). There is a pullout sofa on the 1st floor in Living Room. There is also a sitting area/dining room just off the LR... a great space for anything. There is also a very quaint/cute guest cottage just off the front of the main structure... with a Sofa pull-out, TV, Electric Fireplace, Small Refrigerator, and high-top table. This is the perfect space to get away from the family chaos in the main house. The kitchen was big and had all the comforts of home. The refrigerator was well stocked with water. (THANKS!!) The property also has a great patio with a large fire pit (like you are camping). Great to sit out and chill in the middle of the woods. Our hosts were awesome! Kept in great communication.. very quick to respond. We all had a blast & can't wait to go back!

Wonderful, peaceful, and beautiful surroundings
My husband, our senior rescue dog, and I stayed at the Manor at Saw Mill while I was filming an indie film in the area and it was the perfect quiet home base. It had every amenity that we needed during our stay ~ a professional cook’s kitchen, a luxurious master bath with a large walk in shower plus a relaxing separate bath by the window to take in the beautiful grounds, a spacious guest house with WiFi extender and air conditioning and a game table, a beautiful outdoor patio with a grill. Our dog, Sassy, absolutely loved being outside and walking and running around the grounds and made a new feline friend with Harvey the cat who she would sit with on the side porch at night. The home was warm, spacious, comfortable and peaceful, and we are looking forward to coming back to celebrate after the movie premiere!! Thank you so much Jen and Rob for sharing the Manor at Saw Mill!!
