This cottage is super cute and very nice for a getaway. We stayed to go to Shocktober and it was a perfect place as it was less than 15 minutes from the house. It was clean and the hosts left plenty of snacks and water for us. I would highly recommend this place.

Wonderful property run by wonderful couple
Where to begin? We wanted a place to stay that was clean, quiet and a bit off a beaten path. Did we score with this place! The couple managing this place were welcoming in the extreme. They were helpful they were courteous and they were friendly. I couldn't ask for anything more. The property was incredible. It was cleaner than I could have imagined and homie. They had made some cinnamon rolls for us that were delicious, there were nice touches of home and care all over the place and it was greatly appreciated. I couldn't give this place a higher rating and if we come back to Lancaster county I guarantee we will be staying here. That said there were a couple things that I would suggest. First they need to work on the stock of the kitchen just a bit: a strainer would be very nice for pasta, sugar and a few other essentials. A desk or chest of drawers in the downstairs bedroom would have been greatly appreciated. But that really is about it. Other than those minor things this place was an absolute pleasure to stay at and I think the couple greatly for our stay.

This charming home was perfect for our get away! We enjoyed the gracious snacks, personal note, fire pit in the back yard and the decor throughout the house. We especially liked the world map on the wall, and the request that we pin the places that we lived! Highly recommend!

Great home!
We had a great stay at this house. The hosts are especially kind and caring and made sure we had everything we need throughout the stay. The kitchen is well equipped, the bed was very comfortable and the whole space was tastefully designed and decorated. All the cleaning products were unscented, which for us was a big bonius since we are sensitive to perfumes. And the view from the house in the back is a peaceful open field with nice sunrises. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Family Gathering
Our family enjoyed our stay at the cottage. It’s an older, cozy home, filled with God’s presence. The location is beautiful; nestled in the country. We enjoyed family dinners, fires and good conversations. I was nervous about not having a TV but it worked out. A radio for music might be a nice touch? The steps are a bit steep but all bedrooms were fine. We managed with one bathroom and there were 5 of us. The children’s toys came in handy since we had a one year old. The house was very clean and surroundings were beautiful! Dean was a wonderful host. He checked on us throughout our stay to make sure everything was okay.

Clean, Comfortable and Cozy!
We absolutely LOVED our stay at Translators Cottage! Not only did we have the opportunity to support the family’s important Bible Translation mission, we were also provided with an incredibly clean and comfortable home to enjoy our family vacation! The toys, books, and games provided by the hosts were a big hit! And we thoroughly enjoyed the lack of TV. We were truly able to relax and unwind. We will be back!!

Stay Away
There were a few complications with this stay away. The check in was positive and the host was responsive. What I found annoying was there being no hot water in the shower. The outdoor grill did not function as advertised because it did not get hot enough to barbecue on. The ceiling light in living room did not go on for 24 hours but then turned on and I could not turn it off. I found the master bed extremely stiff and uncomfortable which did not allow me to sleep on it. There was an Oder in the home which might have come from the shag carpeting not being clean enough or vacuumed with a high quality unit that cleanses with pulsating water/ shampoo. Overall it was a disappointing stay.

Unforgettable Family Getaway with Excellent Host!
Our stay at this VRBO home in Lancaster was an absolute delight from start to finish! The communication with the host before and during our stay was exceptional, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable experience. The kids' playground and spacious backyard were a hit, and we enjoyed a cozy campfire every night. The house was immaculate and had plenty of room for everyone. A huge bonus was the assortment of toys that kept the kids entertained – they especially loved the hammock in the living room, practically living on it! This property exceeded our expectations in every way and made for an unforgettable family getaway. We can't wait to come back!
