Family-friendly holiday rentals in Ephrata Township

This is our second time staying here and we’ll definitely be back for a third and hopefully fourth time! John’s place is peaceful and the amenities make it feel like a true vacation. John is super responsive if you need anything.

Place was very beautiful and was such a nice area, definitely recommend driving over to Columbia during your stay. Place was a bit more renovated than the pictures which was a nice surprise.

This was the perfect place to relax after a busy, fun-filled day in the surrounding areas. Kara was responsive to all communication! I even had a wheelchair delivered there for me to use at the outings due to a ruptured Achilles & it was delivered early & she stored it for me on her screened in porch. The bathroom floor is heated which is nice. The shower is handicap accessible & has a bench built in! All around was a wonderful, peaceful place & the hot tub was great to relax in after a day out as well! Kara was amazing! Would definitely Italy stay there again!

The perfect house for a long weekend with friends. We very comfortably fit six adults and five kids (ages 5, 4, 2, 1 and 1). So well equipped for families with a crib in the master bedroom and tons of toys and games. Lots of places to hang out from the beautiful screened in porch to the open layout upstairs and game room downstairs. The location is incredible… a front yard full of horses (you’re living amongst the farms) and a very short drive to the activities we chose. Highly recommend checking out Cherry Crest Farm, Strasbourg train and Dutch Wonderland. Across the street from the house is an Amish stand with fresh baked goods and strawberries. For food, Lancaster Brewing co was fantastic as well as Speckled Hen. Can’t wait to come back!

Great host, flexible with our requests and very responsive. 10/10 host will return to Mike if ever back in the area, thank you!!

Staying at Todd’s place was so relaxing . Our little one had a 3 day weekend off from school and we wanted to get out of the city for a couple days to explore Lancaster, PA. Todd’s home felt more than a place to rest your heads after a long day, but rather a true home away from home. From watching the little birds eat from the bird feeder, relaxing on the hammock, to playing fetch in the yard with my little dog, Todd’s aesthetically pleasing home was the perfect companion to a fun filled weekend in Lancaster. Thank you so much Todd for sharing your space with us. We truly appreciate it.

Amazing location, super unique neighborhood. Quaint, clean and full of character!

The cottage is beautiful, tranquil, and very comfortable - a one of a kind place. The history of the cottage is very interesting and was part of our wonderful stay there. We, along with our guests with four legs, relished walking the serene property. David was a great host - very helpful, responsive, and nice to work with. We look forward to returning.

We were in the area for a multi-day event, so we did not get to take advantage of all of the area's and home's offerings, but the house itself and all of the thought the host put into the details were wonderful. Mike had walking sticks with flashlights hung by the door, blaze orange vests and hats in the coat closet, s'mores ingredients on-hand, just to name a few of the perfect cabin-in-the-woods touches. I enjoyed reading a bit of The Field Guide to Dumb Birds of North America : ) Lots of books on the bookshelves for readers. My bed was very comfortable. You will be staying in an antique cabin in the woods with a wood-burning fireplace, but all of the areas that need to be clean for guests (counters, bathroom, bedding, etc.) were clean. Thank you for a great place to stay while in the area!

Louita and her dad were the kindest people to my family. We take our annual trips to Lancaster area and we literally landed in PARADISE! The backyard is huge, we got to play so many games back here and my dog loved running around. The amenities were all here and provided. We had space for 2 cars and my family was so happy. My whole family loved the fireplace and we made s’mores. We got to enjoy some fresh strawberries, blueberries, milk, and eggs that Louita’s dad provided and we were so blessed and honored to have amazing hosts. Couldn’t be more happy with our stay, and we will definitely be back!

It was a quick one night stay at the farm, but we enjoyed our stay, as well as seeing the horses and alpacas. Peter is super friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend

Homeowner was extremely kind! Very responsive and overall very helpful! Loved the place and would definitely stay again

We had a great stay at the Country Nest. We stayed for a weekend with family for Fathers Day weekend. Very easy to book, and hosts Liz and Juana were very responsive to questions. Provided clear house rules/instructions and check in was super easy, with the house just as described. We felt right at home, and we loved the country decor! The home was warm and inviting, and very clean. Appreciated the welcome basket, and flyers/info with things to do in the area. Would definitely book again for a future stay!

Stunning property, the house and pool were incredible. Loved the peacefulness of the property and the surrounding amenities….. it felt like home!!!

One of the best shower heads I have ever had the pleasure to use. Took a ton of will power to not stay in the shower the whole stay. It appears that Ruthie and her family live in the house when guests are not staying. That did not bother me and my guest, but something to note. Really close to a Casino if that is what you are looking for. Less than a 5 min walk.

We live staying here. This was our second time. We were little early but Robert accomodated us and everything was as we remembered from the last time. Kids love the pool. Super quiet relaxing place to be.

Caryle’s place was in a very peaceful neighborhood, very private and relaxing. The kitchen had what we needed and the living room was a great place to sit and read. We felt like we were staying at a friend’s house.

My family and I spent Memorial Day weekend in this beautiful home. It was very spacious and very clean. It had every amenity you could possibly want. It had a beautiful family room area and plenty of seating for everyone. We enjoyed the outdoor fire pit. The pool was absolutely beautiful, but too cold for us to use at this time. The yard was completely fenced and very private. We really enjoyed our stay at this home. We hope to stay again soon!

We had a wonderful stay! The place was amazing with so many great places to get cozy whether that was inside or outside. We loved having dinner under the pavilion and coffee on the back deck in the mornings. We hope to return again in the future.
