Working Horse Ranch With Indoor Pool!!

This beautiful log and stone luxury home is surrounded by Pennsylvania farmland along with a back drop of blue mountains which provides a feeling of complete seclusion. Upon arriving to the farm, immediately seeing and hearing the soft sounds of the horses in the fields adds to a consuming feeling of peace and serenity.

Located in the heart of Central PA there are almost too many attractions to list from wineries, restaurants, outlets for shopping, HersheyPark and all its wonder to the vast covering Amish Country and all it provides. You may just choose to stay at the property and have a total equine experience, as well. Whatever your taste, this is a "must see" experience for anyone.

This home has various outstanding features to offer its guests starting with 3 bedrooms and a loft area to sleep, 3 baths and two living/family room areas. This home appeals to all levels of activity from playing basketball inside the half court sized garage, letting loose in multiple ways in the game room, swimming in the indoor pool, relaxing with a good book in the loft area to roasting marshmallows outside at the fire pit.

Skirted with porches and patios overlooking acres of beautiful pastures that encase a full working not for profit horse program and rescue facility. This spectacular home will appeal to all ages and groups, as well as being the perfect fit for extended family vacations, reunions or any size event occasion.

No matter how you are filling your time, whether its with many outside activities, a full equine experience or just planning a quiet get-a-way, this vacation home has it all!!

Family getaway
The property is beautiful on the outside. The inside could use some work. We stayed during a very cold weekend and the heat was not able to handle the space. It was set to 65 degrees. After contacting the property manager, we were allowed to increase the heat but unfortunately the temperature in the house never made it past 68. The fireplace did not work and the downstairs was only heated with a small space heater. Given there is a bedroom with 2 queen beds and 4 futons in the basement, I wish there was adequate heat down there. The basement is huge and if there were more bedrooms instead of futons on the floor, a lot more people could be more comfortable. The bathrooms could use some improvements. The water has a bad iron smell and all bathrooms are heavily stained from it. The carpets leading and into the loft were heavily stained and need replaced. I wanted to love this property due to the location of being on a rescue horse farm. I hope they make some improvements to the space because it could be a fabulous rental.

Beautiful, Fun House and Property
The house was amazing. My kids loved the pool and basketball court in the garage. As soon as we walked in my 11 year old said he wanted to go back next year. Having the horses right outside made it extra special. 20 mins drive to Hershey. So much better going back to that house after a day of fun than to a hotel.

Great place with great surroundings
I would absolutely stay here again. Came with a group of 10 guys and we had a great time! The only thing that needs to be worked is VRBO’s descriptions of the bedrooms and what is in them. Because of this not everyone had their own bed as expected but we made it work! The owner was super responsive to every question and didn’t have any delay those responses! Thank you for a great time!

Horse ranch
inside house was clean but had problems with downstairs shower. Washer did not work, which we all planned on. We could have been informed of this but were not told until we arrived. Decks are DANGEROUS!!!!! My son foot \leg went through a deck board. Owner was sorry but never asked how his leg was!!! The weeds around house are terrible. Could not use back patio due to it being weed covered. Seeing the horses was nice.

Family stay
This trip was for a family of 16. Communication was good. The owner answered any questions fairly quick. The pool, space and game room was great. The back and front decks both need some serious work, poison ivy was coming up through the deck, broken and weak boards. No warning on the fences about them being electric. The dumpster was FULL all week so we couldn’t place the trash anywhere after the outside cans were full. The showers/bathtubs need to be updated/fixed. There was no firewood for the outside fire ring as said there would be in the binder and the washer was broken. There was constant in and out traffic and I understand it’s a working farm but they should really watch for kids playing, they would come in and out too quick for my comfort, maybe having a second entrance would be good. The location was good though and the view was beautiful. Personally would not book for the price we paid it wasn’t worth it. I think this could be a better place to book if these issues were resolved.

Beautiful, overall very nice. The pool was amazing! The house and property was amazing! We could not access the internet, the washer didn't work, they sent a repairman to check it out. But it wasn't repaired. The basement carpet was wet, so we couldn't really use it. We were not told about it, they had blowers going to dry it. We would stay there again.

CAUTION: Don’t stay here: not as advertised!!
Upon arrival, we quickly realized this house was a SECURITY and SAFETY nightmare, no working smoke detectors, electrical issues, inoperable windows and doors. Every door was open to enter, no key needed. A “friend of the owner” entered the house unannounced after we checked in. She told us not to swim in the pool, for at least an hour, as she cleaned and added chemicals, which should’ve been done prior to our arrival. She also told us there was no air conditioning. We could not open windows because they had no screens, broken screens or were NAILED shut, (owner was going to “look into it” but you can see in the pictures of the house provided, there are no screens.). It was 83 degrees according to thermostat the entire time. Broken air conditioning units outside the home, blades were completely missing. This is not something that just happened. When contacting the owner, she stated that she tried to let us know it was broken but her “cell service was bad”. She also tried to appease us by claiming fans were blowing, but all they did was push hot air around. The property has no outside yard due to electrified horse fences all around and are not posted as such. Thankfully, a ranch volunteer warned us. These are just a few of the issues we had. We contacted the owner and VRBO of the issues immediately. It’s a shame that VRBO has not removed this property to protect it’s renters. We paid too much money for an unsafe, sweaty stay (wish we could include pictures!)

Very disappointing
Let me preface my review by saying the property was so old and dirty, we stayed for twenty minutes and left. I had booked this stay for myself and my family while visiting Hershey Park. We had been looking forward to it for months and were so disappointed upon arrival. Our first impressions were the cracked and warped front deck, the front door that would not open and the sliding glass door that was left unlocked. Once inside the house it got worse with each room we walked through. To say the house was filthy is putting it lightly, every single carpeted area was severely stained and dirty. The kitchen still had crumbs on the table, a used fork on the couch, spots of residual mess left on garbage can and counters. Under every single table or chair, etc. were balls of hair and dirt and crumbs. The master bedroom had no working light, white stains on the black comforter. Bathroom on main floor had cracked/broken door, shower and sinks were in poor condition. The downstairs bedroom with two queen size beds had ceiling tiles that were warped and visibly moldy. This place needs a complete overhaul, new carpets, paint throughout, bathroom and kitchen remodel, etc. It is old and dirty and to charge people to stay here in its current condition should be a crime. Upon contacting customer support, the host offered to come over and “clean” but this property needs far more than even surface level cleaning for it to be worth even a one star.
