Wonderful hospitality and beautiful farm

The accommodations were beautiful, the hosts were extraordinarily friendly and welcoming, and their scones are the best we have ever had. We will definitely be staying with them again.

35th Wedding Anniversary

The property was just as the pictures showed. The owners brought us fresh made scones when we arrived, which were delicious. The house was absolutely perfect for our stay. We will be planning another visit. Thank you so much!

The Birdhouse

We couldn’t have been more pleased with our stay at The Birdhouse. From the friendliness of the owners Carol & Pete (who makes the most delicious blueberry scones) to the cleanliness and comfortably decorated surroundings inside the cottage (Carol is a top-notch decorator with an eye for little details that makes it so cozy) to the convenience of location. Highly recommend.

Return visitor

We came back for another day at this sweet little cottage. Five stars the first time and somehow even better the next. We love exploring the property and going down to the river nearby. The fenced in hard for the dogs is ideal, and we love the patio fireplace. The eggs and scones are such a treat, and Carol and Pete could not be more gracious. You can feel yourself relax as soon as you drive onto the property. We'll be back!

Private and Peaceful!

My husband and I enjoyed a long weekend at Carol and Pete’s cottage. The entire place is beautifully constructed and tastefully decorated. The bed was so comfortable, along with custom kitchen cabinetry, farm table, cathedral ceilings, comfortable living room and a spacious bathroom with a modern walk in shower. The outdoor living space was truly an experience with rusty window frames to highlight the beautiful scenery. Hearing the roosters and birds just added to the overall experience. We enjoyed our visit to Lancaster and a beautiful walk on the Northwest River Trail to see the Conoy White Cliffs. We suggest driving to Bainbridge, parking in lot, and walking the trail to Conoy (to and from is 3.5 miles). Carol and Pete couldn’t have been more gracious and were always reachable if we needed anything. We will definitely be returning for another peaceful getaway! Thank you, Carol and Pete!

The place was cute, quaint and adorable. For being small the use of space was designed very well. We loved the animals and peaceful surroundings. Owners thought of everything, great special added touches. Loved it!

Charming but

We were there for our 50th wedding anniversary. On our very first night my wife developed a gum infection and swollen very badly. We were forced to leave the very next morning. I understand the no refund policy but really thought the owner would be more understanding. Owner response was no refund policy. Very surprised. Also be aware that besides open air courtyard it is basically a one room affair. Really thought the place was larger than that. If the weather isn’t nice you’re basically in just the one room.

4th time staying here

This was our 4th time staying in the Bird House and we had another enjoyable time. We love the country location it makes us feel like home. This time we enjoyed the York Herb and Garden Festival on Friday and spent a lot of time visiting the Amish Greenhouses. We cook most of our meals to spend time with our dogs but we did order take our from Caruso's Italian Restaurant and it was great and only 5 minutes away so still very hot when we arrived back to the house. We would highly recommend it and of course staying at the Birdhouse.

Work Retreat Play

Staying on a mini farm, surrounded by rolling pastures, chickens, two mini donkeys, and an emu named Ferrari was good for the soul. The cottage was perfect for work, and taking breaks to say hello to the donkeys made the time fly. Arriving to homemade blueberry scones and a dozen farm fresh eggs was lovely! We purchased our meals for the weekend at Central Market, and enjoyed Lancaster and Columbia as much as our short stay would allow. We hope to return, if only to see how big the frolicking calves from the farm next door get. Thank you Carol and Pete for envisioning a sweet little compound of magical and well-appointed cottages, and opening it to guests.

Other than the constant sound of gunfire from a nearby shooting range, our stay at Carol and Pete’s “bird house” was absolutely wonderful- clean, well accommodated, and friendly with delicious blueberry scones and fresh farm eggs. We loved the roosters and cows!

Wonderful Spot

A lovely setting amid the beautiful PA rolling farmlands. And loved the presence of the chickens, donkeys and the emu on the property. The cabin is clean and wonderful and just as pictured (except I don’t believe the beautiful shower is captured in the photos). It turned cold that week so we weren’t able to enjoy the outside space as much but look forward to a return stay in the summer!
