Nice getaway

My boys and I had such a nice time escaping to this beautiful area. Even with rainy weather it was serene and an enjoyable trip. The train took a bit to get used to as it ran on an evening and overnight schedule while we were there, but was not a total disruption. Easy drive to explore the state park and Lancaster.

Solitude

This was exactly what I needed. Beautiful scenery, peace and quiet. I could see myself doing this once a year if allowed back! The place was great, the distance is worth it. Thank you again.

Great space and location.

We had an enjoyable stay in this home. It was very clean and well appointed. We especially appreciated that linens and towels were included as those things are so cumbersome to bring along. The owners graciously allowed us to change our date at the last minute and were both very quick to respond to any questions we had. The only downside was the frequency of the train passing the house. It is not obnoxiously loud but it did wake me several times the first night we were there. By the 2nd night, I was so tired and possibly expecting it so I didn’t notice it as much.

Amazing Thanksgiving Getaway

We stayed at the lake house over the Thanksgiving holiday. The views from the living room and master bedroom were breathtaking. The house was beautiful and well equipped with everything we needed. The property manager was wonderful - answering our questions, showing us how to manage the thermostat and even dropping off salt when we ran out. Incredibly kind and helpful. We took walks around the woods and down by the water. I highly recommend a stay at the lake house. Thank you!

About the host

Hosted by Brian Ament

I am always rejuvenated when I'm here at the river. I get a feeling of tranquility seeing the eagles and other wildlife in the area. I love being able to just jump on my boat ( any excuse is a good one ) and take a ride on the water. Let me tell you about the Safe Harbor Indian Petrogylphs and the local history and botany.

Why they chose this property

If you like getting away from it all, need to unwind or great place to play ~~ you found it!
The best area for boating, from waterskiing to kayaking, or fishing. We are close enough if want to have a nice dinner & show. The Fulton Opera House, the American Music Theater, Sight & Sound and several movie theaters are only 1/2 hour drive. If you are new to the area, come discover Amish Country, antiquing in Columbia or experiencing the clock and watch museum.

What makes this property unique

The Lake's tranquility and all the other things it has to offer may be the reason why the Indians chose to live here. Check out Indian Steps Museum, The Conestoga Historical Society, Canal Lock 12, Tucquan Glenn Nature Preserve , relax ~~ fish, boat or hike.
