A wonderful home to relax in, perfect for families. The location is excellent to enjoy all that Mount Gretna has to offer - the Jigger Shop, playground and beach were a hit with the kids, summer concerts and Hideaway a hit with the adults! Mount Gretna is a great place to explore Central PA from - head to Hershey a short drive away or over to Roots Market on a Tuesday for Pennsylvania Dutch Treats. We cannot recommend this home from home highly enough!
