Hershey holiday house

Our stay was in April of 09 with four adults and three children ages three and under. The house, bedrooms, common rooms, and outdoor deck and yard presented many different areas to relax and play so that a group of our size wouldn't feel cramped; however if closeness is what's desired, the living room and sun room are so cozy and comfortable while providing ample seating for many people. The river view and back yard with the deck, tree swing for two, floating dock off the yard, kayaks, canoe, and flat bottom motor boat make this an outdoor oasis. Myself and my family are from a rural area and even we didn't feel any lack of privacy from the neighbors who are just a stones throw away. The early morning hours in the sunroom with a magazine soaking in the rising sun rays and the plentiful river bird species absolutely spelled r-e-j-u-v-i-n-a-t-i-o-n for me. The location is a bit away from it all, but if you covet your privacy while being only 10 minutes from the big town and 20 minutes from Hersheys attractions than you will love this place. The highway and freight train are close but that aided with convienance to grocery shopping, dining, etc. and the train is great for the kids and part of the river houses charm. The owners can be described in one word as gracious, and while they are somewhat new to the process according to them, they appear to be very open, and inviting of any suggestions that guests may have. Janice and Dave (the owners) are very hospitable and welcoming and exhibit a down home charm and an good knowledge of the area and it's dining options as well as the historical significance of the sorrounding area. Great option for any family or group of friends staying in the area.
