Perfect Gathering Spot
There was nothing we needed that this place didn’t have. The fire pit and hot tub were a hit, as was the outdoor cat Norma who hung around. Nice decorating and spotless! One and ONLY small negative was that it’s on a busy road and noisy, but nothing that fans (provided) in the bedrooms couldn’t help to muffle.

A well appointed house
The decor is up to date and attention has been paid to necessities and comforts. It’s on a road with heavy truck traffic, so if you need a white noise machine for sleeping, it would be good to bring one with you. It was nice to have a big table for meals and enough seating in the living room for people to hang out together. It’s also good that there is a main level sleeping room in case someone in the party has mobility issues. We’ve stayed here multiple times and made some good memories here.

Birthday Weekend Getaway
The property, owner, and grounds were wonderful. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. Check-in was easy and the owner was very responsive to a couple questions we had. We had a group of 8 adults and there was more than enough room for all of us. Words can't describe what a relaxing weekend we all had. We enjoyed an Amish buffet for lunch and spent a little time in Berlin browsing the shops. We cooked breakfast & dinner at the house and had everything we needed for both in the well stocked kitchen. The owner even provided some cold bottled water for us on arrival! This property is beautiful and the owner was amazing. A member of our group forgot their suitcase. The owner was kind enough to reach out to us so they could return to retrieve the suitcase from the home. Thank You for sharing your home with us, we would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful home- perfect location.
This is our 25th year of an annual trip to Amish- this was our favorite rental so far! The house and gardens were beautiful- we enjoyed the firepit and hot tub in the evenings. The house was immaculate and had everything you could ever need- and all labeled so easy to find! We enjoyed dinner and music at Han's place- just a few miles away. Brenda was a wonderful host, so friendly and helpful. She even left us a gift due to construction next door- which was not a hindrance at all, we found the stonework interesting! We will definitely love to stay again!

The place was very perfect!
Everything was great perfect and beautiful. A personal preference of mine would be the pillows were a little too firm in the bedroom that we were in so we went out and bought a few pillows which I would’ve thought of asking that question prior but I probably could’ve just packed a pillow And the property was amazing. We truly enjoyed it as we were there for a wedding not far from the venue.

Hot tub was clean and enjoyable! Loved Norma the entire family loved her company and feeding her(: the house was something out of a better homes and garden magazine. Wonderful generational womens trip! The surrounding areas provided great experiences and food! From horseback riding to comfort food. The worlds largest coco o’clock is nearby as well as shops and wineries for days. Perfect place to escape to Amish country with your closest family members.

Great friends getaway
The house was clean and cozy and Brenda is a wonderful host. Was a great place for girls getaway and close to shopping. The only complaint is the highway 39 road noise and the floor creaking from being an old house. We had a great time and appreciated the special touches from Brenda located throughout the house!

We loved our stay. Great house for gathering inside or outside. A comfortable combination of beautiful old farmhouse with fully updated and modern amenities. We spent a lot of time outside in the hot tub and around the fire while the kids played in spacious yard with lots of room to explore.

Perfect Girls Weekend
Yellowbrick was the PERFECT little house for a girl’s getaway weekend to celebrate my sister’s 30th birthday. Brenda was an exceptional host who provided awesome communication. The house was a dream! Clean, comfortable, and decorated so nicely! I felt so at home. We especially loved the reclining sectional, firepit, porch swing, and hottub. The farm cat Norma became our best little friend and we hated to have to leave her! My one and only small suggestion would be a personal preference on mattress density. I found the beds to be quite firm (for my taste) and a cozy mattress topper would have helped. But no complaints whatsoever! Would absolutely come back to Yellowbrick in a heartbeat! :-)

Great time at Yellowbrick. The house was well updated and comfortable. It made a lot of old house noises, but that is expected from an older home. We loved Norma (cat). She would sit with us by the fire each night.

Perfect for large family
We enjoyed a weekend here with our 4 young children and both sets of grandparents. It is very difficult to find a home with 5 distinct bedrooms (and 2 full baths) so that everybody can be comfortable and have a little privacy. This is one of those rare gems! The home was immaculately clean and impeccably decorated. The hostess could not have been better with prompt and courteous communications before and during our stay. It is located directly on rt 39 which is both convenient and rather rife with traffic noise. This can't really be helped; I'm sure the house was there long before that road got so busy. But you will hear motor sounds. It's also an old home with beautiful (and very creaky) hardwood throughout. The remedy for the noise issues - bring earplugs for sleeping if you're sensitive, and spend your time out and about at the attractions and wineries which are a bit farther off the road! All things considered, we would stay here again (my kids are already asking to!). I would recommend it highly over splitting up your group across several hotel rooms. It's charming and memorable.

We enjoyed our stay at the Road to Yellowbrick. Brenda contacted us with all our check-in information and gave us a couple tips for things to do. This house is about a 20-30 mintue drive to sight-seeing. Otherwise a great place just to stay and relax with a big yard, hot tub and outdoor fireplace to enjoy the outdoors. We had plenty of room for 7 people.

Yellowbrick House was beyond my expectations. Country setting without being too far from the highway. Very close to a couple of wineries. Clean house with gorgeous decor. Brenda truly thought of everything. From coffee to shampoo. Everything we needed was there We had an unexpected snow and she even came over quickly to shovel the deck for us. I can't wait to stay again.
