Guest Access
You will have the entire home to yourself, including the side yard, front yard, and backyard. The hot tub is entirely private and exclusively for your use.

The home is located in a historic "hamlet" called Safe Harbor Village, built in the 1930s. The neighborhood is extremely peaceful and quiet.

I needed a place for my four adult children, partners and my wife to stay for a late holiday celebration. We couldn't have asked for a better spot. It was quiet, clean and still fairly close to grocery stores and other needs. We had a great time and would definately recommend the stay for others. The hot tub was a perfect bonus, and the house is styled so cozy. Thank you!

We visited Lancaster with my family and parents and instead of getting a hotel, we opted for this stay. Best decision! We were able to cook our meals together and sit by the fire at night! House was thoroughly thought out and had every amenity we could need. Pictures alone could never do this community and home justice - absolutely beautiful.

The Conestoga Cottage is a charming house that is beautifully styled to reflect the surrounding region. It is clean, comfortable, spacious, and well supplied. The neighborhood is quiet and attractive. It is located a short scenic drive from attractions, restaurants, and conveniences. The host communicates well and promptly. Thanks for the snacks as my family appreciated them. We really enjoyed our stay at Conestoga Cottage!

Peter's home in Safe Harbor village was perfect for us and our dogs. Easy access to everything, beautiful setting and community, with a lot of original woodwork still in place. Coming back to a generously well stocked kitchen, sitting by the fireplace and watching a movie on a comfortable couch was the perfect way to end a busy day. We would recommend this home to all.
