Shawnee Forest In Town Retreat

About this space
Hi! Our home is pet friendly with a one time pet fee of $50.00. Our cozy home is located in the heart of Harrisburg, which is know as the "Gateway to the Shawnee National Forest." The home is within walking distance of some very nice downtown shops and restaurants. The Tunnel Hill Bike Path is only one block away, and the beautiful Garden of the Gods is a scenic 22 mile drive away. Come put your feet up on our screened in porch and watch the squirrels play!
The space:
This home is over 100 years old. You can expect high ceilings, and original wood accents. It is very cozy and welcoming to families. With an older home, please also expect old pipes and things like that.
Guest access:
Local restaurants and shops can easily be reached on foot. There is a bike path only a block away. Grocery and other stores having anything you may need are only a short drive away.

Quaint, Quiet and Comfortable
Nice older home with a beautiful backyard to sit in and visit. Comfortable to relax and an excellent collection of vinyl music to listen to. Will take this house over a hotel anytime. The atmosphere and the ability to visit at your leisure is well worth the price.

Perfect Home
This is a huge home with plenty of space! We loved the fenced in backyard for our poodle. This home has a lot of character and felt cozy. Nice stay, close to everything.

Spacious comfortable older home
The house has lots of room to spread out or gather together with one another. We enjoyed watching a movie on the giant TV and the sun room and screened porch were my favorite.

Close to Shawnee National Forest.
Charming older home with plenty of room! The purpose of our trip was to hike in the Shawnee National Forest, and the house was conveniently located to all that we wanted to do. The house is very close to town (within walking distance), but we did not do much there except for having breakfast at the Steam Cafe, which I highly recommend!

Close to everything!
The property, while an older home, was very clean and comfortable. The backyard is fenced, but it is really not suitable for a dog to run free in as there are several places it could get out. I loved the screened porch and watching the dozens of squirrels in the backyard.

Family Wedding
This house is perfect and has everything you need. We rented this house for a family wedding. The location was perfect as the wedding venue was 3 blocks from the house. This was very convenient. The house is located close to shopping and restaurants. We would definitely rent again.

Authentic country bungalow stay
Clean, quiet, convenient. Neighbors waved. The host communications and check in/out instructions were so easy. Thank you for letting us stay here. Next time we'll have a fire in the lovely, huge yard. The front porch area could use blinds or other for privacy from the street.
