Fall in Lancaster

Willow Acres Retreat is centrally located whether you are visiting for the outlets, Sight and Sound, Farmers Markets, or just the serenity of the Amish Community and farm lands. Property and house was exceptionally clean and the host was convenient to communicate with. Perfect for our Fall Getaway with our adult nieces.

Came for a wedding in Lancaster with an elderly cousin. The house was clean, comfortable and easily accessible with her walker. Hosts were kind and responsive… even delivering new batteries for the tv remote. Highly recommend!

Great house in great location

Our group of 7 (3 adults, 4 kids) thoroughly enjoyed our stay. This was more convenient and cheaper than 2 hotel rooms. The driveway was more than big enough for our rental van. The washer and dryer made our lives and unpacking when returning home easier. The kitchen and patio tables helped save money and aggravation instead of going out. The 2nd and 3rd bedrooms and beds were a little small but were fine. If my biggest complaint was the soft water (I realize a pet peeve of mine) it was good stay. . Location-wise, a Chic-fil-a is across the street, it's walkable to the outlets and perhaps Dutch Wonderland (1.5 miles to save $22 parking),

We made a reservation months before our stay.No issues with reserving this property. Just like we were told,they contacted us for the key code the morning of our stay. No issues getting in any time. The house was just as shown in the pictures.Everything was clean and neat for us. Enough towels for the stay. Washer, dryer and the dish washer worked well. There was 4 adults in our party. We were so close to eating places and sidewalks to take a walk.The house was really fixed up cute.The ice maker was great since we had a cooler with us. A Coffee pot and a keurig for my husband,a toaster,microwave, utensils,pots and pans helped with our meals. I would recommend this house and would definitely stay again.

Clean, but the kitchen isn't great

This property was great and very clean. The setup was perfect for what our family needed. However, the kitchen needs updated. Neither the oven nor the microwave heats food properly; in fact, the oven looks original to the home. There were no knives in the kitchen that work, and the cooking utensils, including pots and pans, could be of higher quality. Overall, the communication with the owners was great, and the location was perfect.
