Adorable, spacious, well stocked Mount Gretna cottage. Air-conditioning and washer dryer/dishwasher were a bonus! Stayed by myself with some teens. Had a great time at the lake,Jigger Shop and Hershey Park. They did not want to sleep in the same bed so, I brought a couple of airbeds.

Mt. Gretna cottage

Heat wave across the state, but it was comfortable under the trees. Spent most of our time on the large porch with lots of comfortable seating. This cottage had the best pots & pans of any rental we have ever stayed in. Would definitely stay here again.

Charm and Comfort in Mount Gretna!

Pam graciously got the cottage ready for us on a last-minute booking. The ceilings are high, the porch is big, and the beds are super comfy! We loved the big windows, the cozy furniture, and how bright the house was. Can't wait to come back to Mount Gretna!

Cozy Cottage on a Quiet Weekend

We enjoyed our stay at 7 Arches. Everything was as described on the listing and the host was very communicative. We enjoyed our time on the porch and around the table. It is in a great location for exploring the area by foot. It was a chilly and rainy weekend in the fall and we really appreciated all the extra blankets around to cozy up in!

Lovely cottage in the Woods.

This one story two bedroom property was lovely, clean & comfortable. It had a long, wide, well furnished porch with lighting & fans which made it enjoyable for sitting outside. The kitchen was well equipped. The cottage was nicely decorated with comfortable furniture & beds. All in all a charming refuge in Mt. Gretna.
