The B&B was located in Lancaster and not Lititz like we thought but that was ok because we had already seen everything in Lititz. The owners were very nice. We enjoyed sitting and talking with them when we got there. Everything was so nice and the food was very good!

Absolutely beautiful inn with gorgeous holiday decor. We loved the gourmet breakfast, comfortable room with heated bathroom floor, and the extras such as free cookies, chips, sodas and a latte maker in the kitchen area. The innkeepers were friendly, warm, and welcoming!

Fantastic Weekend

The couple who run the inn were lovely! They made a 5-star homemade breakfast every morning and kept the house very clean and comfortable. The house is located between Lancaster City and Lititz so the location was perfect. Would definitely stay here again!

Our room was very clean and the A/C kept the room very comfortable during the summer heat. The gardens behind the B&B were beautiful and we enjoyed sitting out there in the evening. The owners were fantastic. They were very friendly and did the little things to make the stay excellent. They even made our breakfast one morning an hour ahead of the scheduled time so we could get to our family plans that day. Would highly recommend this B&B.
