Log cabin nestled beside Chiques Creek in historic Lancaster County

This 3-bedroom home is a great place to get away and relax or as a home base for your tour of historic Lancaster County. It is located minutes from Hershey Park, Lancaster County tourist spots and the Spooky Nook Sports complex (home of the US Women’s Field Hockey team) yet apart from all the traffic on a quiet rural street close to Siegrist Mill covered bridge.

Built on the foundation of an old grist mill, the home provides history and charm. Fall asleep to the sound of the mill race right outside your bedroom window. Spend the day watching birds from the sun porch or just enjoying life while watching the creek and its variety of wildlife from the front porch.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private balcony. A Smart television and a DVD player are provided for your entertainment, while complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.

PA visit
This was a great place for us to stay. We were there for a family reunion in a nearby town. This was a nice property that was also close to the Amish tourist spots, quiet neighborhood. We so enjoyed and would stay again.

Basketball tournament stay
House was great. Beds comfy. Appliances a bit outdated. We could not get the oven to work but stove did. The toaster needs replacing. We ate out mostly but wanted to pass along these two items. The property and location beautiful and covered bridge just a few steps away. We loved it.

PA Getaway
Loved the location of the house. We toured Philadelphia, Gettysburg, the Hershey Chocolate Factory and the Amish countryside near Lancaster. This house was very warm and appealing even though we didn’t spend much time inside. Loved the short walk to the covered bridge. Amazing house and area overall; would definitely book this location again. *Master bathroom toilet didn’t flush well at all, we didn’t use it after one use. *Main bathroom tub drains extremely slow, water gathers around feet/ankles while showering.

Very nice!
Spent two nights at the house for a volleyball tournament. Very easy to get to Nook. House is very nice near a river which is very soothing. Sun room was a favorite for our stay. Covered bridge is a short walk down the road which was neat to see. I would definitely stay here again.

Country Setting
The country setting was very relaxing. Easy walk up the road to an old covered bridge. We were very disappointed after a long day’s drive to have to make up our own beds before being able to use them. With today’s safety standards, the old plasticware and old aluminum cookware in the kitchen was questionable.

Home for a weekend tournament
I booked here instead of a hotel for a weekend sports tournament with my daughter. The house had everything we needed for a couple of nights. It was clean, the host was responsive and very accommodating. The location of the house is absolutely beautiful. I will be renting again next year.

Family trip to Hershey
This location was great, it was out in the country and peaceful and very close to a covered bridge. It was only a short drive (20-30 mins.) into Hershey and other tourist areas that we wanted to visit. The house itself was clean and has a nice amount of space and living areas, it is a bit dated and could have newer furnishings. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again.

It's a neat log home but it needs some repairs, updating and cleaning. This is the first time we've ever stayed at a VRBO where we had to make our beds when we got there!

Nice weekend getaway
We stayed there with out 2 young sons for the weekend. Overall its clean, but the lights are full of cobwebs and by the tv stand there were tons of deadbugs. There was also trash under the couch. (I noticed this stuff while sitting on the floor playing with my sons.) The dryer was out of order which was frustrating after a rain soaked day at Gettyburg.

Great area, great place, just needed more attention to cleaning.
The dryer had an out of order sign. I was not notified of this. Commodes had been neglected. Coffee pot, some utensils, a pan in the oven all not clean. Cleaning containers all empty. No swiffer pads. Had to use disinfectant wipes. Owner communicated promptly. The next day sent cleaning lady over but we had already cleaned. There was obviously a difference of opinions & i felt it was not my place to handle employee matters. She told me they would come do our clothes which was not on our plans. She also suggested I could go to a laundromat or hang them over the porch rail which was also not in out plans. There are other things I could say but I think I’ve said enough. I have no issues with the communication with the owner she was very prompt in responding. I did ask for some refund on the cleaning fee. Don’t know if this will happen. The house was old & beautiful. The grounds were pretty. It was convenient to everything. I got permission from the owner to host a small gathering of family and she graciously consented. Other than the dryer and the cleaning issues, which can be fixed, I would stay there again & would recommend it to others.
