Hot Tub in the Historic Homes of Harrisburg: WIFI and walk to coffee shop!

Spring is coming, the daffodils and tulips are pushing through the soil with a promise of warmer days ahead in the Shawnee National Forest! Many trees have lost their leaves, but their buds are swelling so you have spectacular views of canyons and cliffs. Enjoy hiking or the bike trail (we have two bikes for guest use) and now we have an electric bike rental business right down the street. It's a great time to get outdoors!

While you are here you can go inside & relax with your favorite shows streaming on the 55" TV or go outside for a soak in the private hot tub. In the living area, we have added a desk, chair, and computer (WIFI is fast) with shortcuts to our favorite trails, restaurants, and activities such as ziplining, kayaking, and horseback riding. Use the keyboard to explore or search the internet so you can “know before you go”. Watch your favorite shows on our 55" Smart TV with Roku (55" Smart TV -Paramount+/Discovery+/Amazon Prime available or sign into your Netflix, Hulu, etc.)

We have an electric fireplace under the TV which is so nice for the evenings. Stay connected with Alexa & fast WIFI. Grill/cook inside or walk to nearby restaurants. Enjoy the fire pit or fireplace, hammock, outdoor chairs, and a dining area with charcoal grill. Washer & dryer are available for our guest's downstairs.

Private, upstairs living space, over 800 square feet, but please, no smoking or pets on property. We send your door access code and welcome letter to your phone before your visit.

#loveourguests “Oh my goodness!!! We have stayed in several vacation rentals, but this place tops them all. The hospitality was beyond anything we expected. The decor and amenities are fantastic. The minute we walked into the place, our kids (9 and 11) asked, “Could we please come here every year?!!!” There were four cozy white bathrobes for all of us to enjoy on a cool evening after relaxing in the hot tub. This very well might be a “regular” stopping point for our family! :)”

• Hot tub with five seats and a lounger. It has extra wide steps and a handlebar for easy entry and beautiful lights for night. Seats have different style jets for a relaxing massage. We keep the water temperature around 98 in summer and warmer in winter. We provide spa robes and towels for your comfort in going out and in the hot tub.
Outside
The pagoda is covered with UV protection fabric. The seating area has a swing, Adirondack style chairs, water features, during spring/summer/fall we have flowering and tropical plants, and a hammock. It's a great place for a morning cup of coffee or sweet tea during the day! We are less than a mile from the beautiful Harrisburg Park with playground equipment for all ages, swings by the pond for adults, new tennis courts, new pickleball courts, skate park, basketball, fitness machines, several bridges, and a lit walking trail. It's beautiful in the spring when the trees are in full bloom or fall when the leaves are red and yellow. If you want to play tennis court, we have 4 racquets/balls or pickleball (we have 8 paddles/balls) the community pool opens Memorial Day weekend. We also have two adult bikes if you want to ride to the park or on the Tunnel Hill bike trail.

One Night Stay
My 14 year old son and I came for one night. We came to break up a long drive and also visit the Shawnee National Forest. The apartment is adorable and super clean. So many nice touches in every corner. The yard is beautiful and very relaxing. We did not use the hot tub this trip, but we hope to be back. I really did not want to leave this place, it is so adorable. The small downtown is very close and just a short driving distance away, you have all the fast food chains and a Walmart. There is a very cool coffee shop walking distance from the apartment. Judy is so friendly and has such a positive energy about her. The Shawnee national Forest was beautiful and garden of the gods and Rimrock was easily accessible and beautiful.

Pros: very clean, lots of sweet touches, Judy is very friendly. Cons: queen bed was horrible, I slept 2nd & 3rd nights in twin, it wasn't private like we were looking for, it's on a shared property and the hot tub was next to the owner's home.

The cutest apartment with every detail thought of! One of the best VRBO experiences we have had. Smooth booking process, easy check-in, easy to find, smooth check out process and great communication throughout the entire process. We loved coming back in the evening to relax in the hot tub and enjoy the firepit and patio.

We could not have picked a better place to stay in Harrisburg!
Judy was in touch with us and stayed in contact even before our trip. She provided much needed information regarding our time in town during a big event. The apartment was the cutest, most accommodating place to stay and was centrally located in town. Judy had thought of all the right touches. Everything that we needed was there! The outdoor area was very inviting and relaxing too! It is evident that Judy puts her heart and soul into making sure that her guests feel welcomed and that their stay is stress free. We will definitely stay there next time we are in town!

Absolutely amazing
I loved staying here. The place is adorable, both inside and outside. The hosts thought of everything, from yummy brookies to welcome you in, to having activity shortcuts on the computer, to a wonderful backyard area that's flush with flowers, comfort, and a whole slew of birds that come to visit. Seriously, I spent one afternoon just sitting in their backyard bird watching and it was amazing. The hosts were phenomenal. From the moment we got there, they came out to welcome us, gave us some wonderful recommendations, and were so pleasant to work with. They accommodated a second car we had for a couple days, let us use the bikes, and were so fast to respond to any asks that sometimes I thought they were psychic. But they're not busybodies or checking in unannounced - basically if you need something they are absolutely there for you, but they are also great at just leaving you be to enjoy your stay. A lot of activities are about a half hour or so away from this apartment, but the drives are very beautiful and there are so many things to do that you can easily set out in the morning and hit multiple places on your adventures because so many are in the same area. Truly I cannot say enough good things about this host and apartment!
