Home Away from Home

I recently stayed at a lovely house in Mechanicsburg, and I can't recommend it enough! The host was absolutely phenomenal—responsive, welcoming, and attentive to every detail. The property was clean, comfortable, and felt like a home away from home. It exceeded my expectations, and I will definitely be returning whenever I'm in the area. A truly fantastic stay!

Family weekend gathering

We chose this property because we needed a large space to accommodate my family and my brother‘s family together. We were looking for a location close to Harrisburg, and this location was perfect and also seems like a getaway. The view from the windows is gorgeous, and also secluded. The bedrooms are very comfortable. We had everything we needed in the kitchen to cook meals throughout the weekend. The owner was very responsive to questions.

Good space

Good amount of space for the number of people we had. Nice big dining room table and multiple bathrooms. There were ants everywhere, and they even got into the food that we stored in the microwave to try to keep it safe. Wifi was very spotty and sometimes did not work at all. The front pathway was completely overgrown with plants which made it very difficult to walk and carry luggage through.

4 night stay to visit Hershey Pa.

Loved our stay. Beds and pillows super comfortable. Teens loved the pool table and the yard was beautiful. Teen girls had a photo shoot in the yard which was really fun. Had everything we needed. William was super easy to get ahold of and responded quickly. Was very helpful when we had a vehicle issue in suggesting some places to go. Great stay. Would love to come back again. Highly recommend.

Fantastic house!!

We were very pleased with this house, it had everything we needed and wanted for our trip. The beds were comfortable, the new air conditioning worked great. The property is so pretty!! The kids loved the hammocks outside and the ability to go splash in the creek. The location of this property is just what we wanted, too: a half-hour drive to Hersheypark and Gettysburg, and we were thrilled to discover there is everything you could need for shopping just 10 minutes away: Walmart, Target, REI, grocery stores, alcohol stores, and much more.

Perfect stay with grandpop

My father has a lot of mobility issues. This house was perfect. He could sit on the porch and watch my children play in the yard and the creek. It allowed us a very relaxed few days. I found a lovely running trail nearby and we took the kuds to Paulus Farm market for a day of fall fun.

This creekside property was a perfect gathering place for us to bring together family. In warmer weather there are multiple large outdoor picnic tables that you can watch the Creek roll by. For colder weather the home has a very warm, remote cabin feel to it. The remote feeling is especially cool considering you're just minutes away from Harrisburg, Carlisle Pike, and Mechanicsburg dining and entertainment options. It's also minutes from Grandma's house in our case, so we plan on being back! Five stars

What a great time we had at this house!! It was everything that we expected it to be and then some! We spent all our time either on the deck relaxing or in the creek fishing and chilling. The host was always quick to respond to any questions I had. He definitely goes by the term “my house is your house”. Thank you for some precious memories with family and friends!! Will definitely plan to stay again if we ever back in this area!

A Very Merry Home for Christmas

We booked the home for our immediate family of 8 and the proximity to extended family at Christmas. The home had everything we needed, decorated perfectly for the holidays and location was great. The surrounding area very convenient, the grounds around the house as well as basement inside home offered a variety of fun activities for all. Home was well equipped and large enough to host several dinners with our extended family. William was quick to respond to any and all questions in a timely manner. We will definitely return!!

Family Gathering

Our family came together for the week. The house fit our 6 adults (one in a wheelchair), 2 kids and a dog just fine. The place matches the pictures with the outdoor deck and grounds leading to the creek being the true highlight. The neighborhood has access to all the stores you need. Some of us enjoyed a tour of Harrisburg while others went for hikes. Time was mostly spent outside. A good mix all around. Host was very responsive.

Fantastic

Three families booked the Creek House to visit Hershey Park and the House was conveniently a few minutes from the highway. House is secluded, however, and the yard was discuss as well as beautiful. Plenty of shade and open areas for kids to run around. The back deck had plenty of seating and great view of the creek. On the last day we saw a good number of people floating down the creek which has a steady flow but not deep. House was perfect and had everything you could think of to make you feel comfortable and entertained. The teenagers enjoyed the pool table and the young ones had plenty of room to explore. Overall, we couldn't have booked a better house; it was perfect.
