Dog-friendly Farmhouse w/ Peaceful Waterfall View

JessicaRating, 5 stars3 days ago
Suzi and Luci’s Place was absolutely beautiful. For a home that often takes pets, it was top tier clean. They were more than accommodating on check-in time since we were traveling from east end of Long Island, it was about a 4 1/2 hour drive. Beds were extremely comfortable and clean, they had the AC and some lights on for us when we got there as well which was very much appreciated. Unfortunately, we had to cut our stay very short. Paid for 2 nights but only stayed for 1. Suzi and Luci were very understanding when we messaged late at night that we had to leave due to family emergency. The view of the falls was gorgeous. Be prepared for some noise from the road at night as it backs up straight to it, but the hostesses offer ear plugs which was super nice! The shower is a bit small so beware if you are a larger person. Overall a great stay, great communication, super clean and comfortable. We can’t wait to come back and fully enjoy the home! Thank you again for a great stay :)

This place is why AirBnb! We loved the property and location. We were in the area for a soccer tournament and found this to be the ideal spot for pre and post match. Plus, everything one could need was provided, orderly and clean. Thanks for the hospitality y’all!

Home with a view!

CherylRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Met all of our expectations. Very well stocked, comfortable home. Shower was small. Full bed in bedroom would have been more convenient than a twin or pull out couch. Would absolutely stay there again.

Wilkum Home, a PA Dutch inspired space w/ Parking

PaulRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This is the second time we have stayed at Wilkum Home. We enjoyed the stay in this home so much the first time that it was an easy decision to stay here again on our second visit to Lancaster. The home is conveniently located for walking or driving to restaurants, area attractions or wherever you wish to go. The house is very clean, nicely decorated and has all the amenities you need for a home away from home. And the hosts are wonderful, always very responsive and accommodating. Also the home has a dedicated parking space just steps away from the front door which adds another level of convenience to this home. If you’re looking for very nice accommodations in Lancaster City, then you have found it - this is truly a fantastic place to stay!

Entire home in Lancaster County/private yard

WayneRating, 5 stars3 days ago
This was a beautiful home in a quiet setting that provided a great place to stay on a father-son trip. The home was well-kept, accommodated our four adults well, and proved very restful. Katrina was also a good host. I would highly recommend.

Amish Country Cottage at Nature View Farm

the cottage was tastefully appointed and spotlessly clean. Mike called us as soon as he realized that we'd forgotten a phone there and saved us the aggravation of the loss. we enjoyed our stay and recommend this gracious host.

Round House with hot tub, 5 mins from Strasburg

BrendanRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Enjoyed the place, loved the area, would recommend. Never stayed in a dome before, it was very comfortable and I had no issues despite my height (6’5”). Would recommend. I suggest bringing some bug spray and/or citronella candles if you’re planning on hanging out outside in the evenings. It got a bit buggy but it was the perfect atmosphere once the citronella and provided tiki torches were lit.

Lothlorien Tree House

JillRating, 5 stars5 days ago
A grown-up fantasy of a tree house! If you have ever dreamed of a tree house adventure -- book this now! Spacious, whimsical, beautiful, quirky, well-appointed, comfortable, a great adventure, (and sturdy). Gretchen's hospitality is also noteworthy. We arrived late at night, and she ensured that the walkway and bridge were lit with mini-lights, with lanterns and small lights around the pond, and twinkling in the branches above the tree house. We opened the door to lanterns lit around the room and lovely new age music playing. A warm welcome! The Lord of the Rings touches were fun--sculptures, books, games, and design features & treasures around the tree house. We enjoyed our dinner and s'mores on the swings by the fire pit, and watching the birds & creek from our tree-top view. The outdoor kitchen and bathroom were well-appointed, clean, and easy to use. There are 2 beds on the main level and 2 on the upper level (fun to access by climbing either of the two ladders).

Cozy Modern Suite in Historic Barn with a Hot Tub

RachelRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb run by Larita! She was extremely responsive, friendly, and made everything so easy from start to finish. My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon, and it was the perfect spot for the two of us. The space is clean, spacious, and thoughtfully prepared — we really appreciated the little details throughout. The hot tub was a highlight and such a relaxing way to unwind. We would definitely recommend staying here and would happily come back again!

Renew on Walnut

AlienaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We really enjoyed our stay at Sarah's! The house was very beautifully decorated and made us feel right at home. They truly thought of everything; we didn't miss anything at all. We had more than enough room for our little family of 3 (they even had a pack and play already set up for our toddler). There were snacks for us on the kitchen table (which our toddler was extremely excited about) and the master bedroom is super cozy for a lazy, rainy morning in. We found the location to be super walkable and close to Dutch Wonderland which is the reason we came to Lancaster in the first place. We would definitely stay here again!

Your guide to Lancaster

Welcome to Lancaster

The city of Lancaster sits at the heart of Pennsylvania Amish country, forming a bridge between the rural lifestyle in the surrounding farmlands and the local creative communities. Curious travelers have been coming here for decades for glimpses of a world that is at once surreal and increasingly more familiar. This is a place where horse-drawn buggies ply the dirt roads and markets sell the latest in local and handmade goods. The city of Lancaster, a classic Pennsylvania Dutch community, is a jumping-off point for exploring the maze of smaller roads dotted with handicraft shops and artisan food stands. Here you’ll find modern shops selling quality, handmade products alongside locavore restaurants that use ingredients and techniques from the region in fun, fascinating ways.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Lancaster

Summer tends to be warm and muggy, while winters are chilly. But the in-between months bring pleasant weather and lots to do. Lancaster’s surrounding fields burst with color as the spring flowers poke out their pretty heads, and Easter events and celebrations can make it an ideal time to stay in one of the area’s vacation rentals. Spring is also when the annual tradition of mud sales (auctions of locally made goods) attracts savvy shoppers looking for deals on things like Amish quilts, handmade furniture, livestock, and farm equipment. The sales are usually run by the local volunteer fire companies, include plenty of homemade food, and are as much social events as they are effective fundraisers. Fall in Lancaster is harvest season, which brings the opportunity to buy local produce and the tasty pies from which they’re made. Roadside farm stands, pumpkin patches, and corn mazes dominate the landscape, while the crisp air brings out the brilliant fall colors in the foliage.

Locally grown produce and flowers, regional foods, and handicrafts stands share the market space with restaurants serving cuisine from around the region and the world.

Farm and Food Tours

Roaming the backroads of Lancaster County is one of the area’s main draws: that’s where the famous farm stands sell their jams and jellies, dairies produce their cheeses, and the locals pick up their whoopie pies. Get around by bike, bus, or even scooter, and let a guide show you the way over the rivers and through covered bridges to old schoolhouses and the best butter.

Susquehanna River

Explore the region by paddling a canoe down the Susquehanna River, or hiking or biking the trails that mirror it. A series of parks, water trails, rail trails, and nature preserves surround the river as it flows through Lancaster County, giving you plenty of ways to experience rural Pennsylvania.
