| Lancaster Vacation Rentals Pennsylvania Vacation Lodging |
Escape to Lancaster County--a simpler, more peaceful world, one that is beautiful and friendly and full of things to do. Here the nation's oldest Amish community live and work as their ancestors did centuries ago, their customs and beliefs setting them apart from the modern world. It is a patchwork quilt of people, places, exquisite scenery, delicious food, and heartwarming experiences.
Call on Nancy and Danny who will use experience from their former careers as social worker and city planner to guide you as you experience our festivals, explore our museums, tour our historic buildings, ride a steam-powered locomotive at Strasburg, or see the countryside in an authentic Amish Buggy. They will show you our roadside stands, farmers' markets, numerous antique shops, auctions, or over 200 factory outlets.
Spend your nights in our wonderful and historic O'Flaherty's Dingeldein House or in cozy and comfortable Nancy's Cottage. We've set the highest standard of excellence and warm hospitality. Enjoy our delicious breakfasts elegantly served by candle light, and on special occasions we even let our southern hospitality shine with ample servings of Kentucky country ham and fresh buscuits. We can't wait to see you in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, the heart of Amish Country
