Centrally located Mt Gretna cottage with 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths

Our cozy Campmeeting cottage, It’s a Charmed Life, is perfectly located in the center of all that Mount Gretna has to offer.

The cottage has three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. For your convenience we provide bed linens and towels.

All bedrooms are on the second floor and each has its own door. The largest bedroom has a queen bed, the next largest two twin beds, and the smallest has a full bed.

There is a bathroom on each floor of the house. The second floor bathroom has a tub shower while the first floor bathroom has a stand up shower.

On the first floor, the modern kitchen is fully stocked with cooking essentials; our large dining table is perfect for meals and games; and there are two separate sitting areas with couches and chairs.

The lake, Lebanon Valley Rail Trail, Clarence Schock Park trails, miniature golf, roller rink, and two playgrounds are all within walking distance.

Walk to the Playhouse, Tabernacle, Pizzeria, Hideaway Bar and Grill, Porch and Pantry restaurant, and The Jigger Ice Cream shop attractions.

Wonderful way to stay in Mt Gretna. Loved the cabinetry, lights, mirrors, patio. Lovely dining table. Plenteous towels. New windows, well-placed. Nice mattress covers and luxurious sheets, but the sheets slip right off the mattress =( replace with cotton? Thank you for minimizing fragrances, cleaning products for those who are sensitive to them. Nice headboards and furniture, but could I have a little reading light attached to headboard I can turn off in bed? For future improvements, could part of the patio be covered and add a porch swing and rockers? Of course, anyone visiting Mt G must expect to walk, but it would be important to explain there is no parking at cottage for those who have difficulty walking. You do hospitality right!! Thank you =)

Truly Charming
We booked a weekend to attend the Renaissance Faire and would gladly stay again! Truly a charming, cabin, close to nearby attractions and a fantastic pizza spot just across the street. The cabin is lovely, clean and cozy with all the comforts of home! We loved our stay and are already looking forward to next year.

Cozy house
Very cute, cozy house with adequate room for 6 adults. Nice extras included. Creaky floorboards added charm! The only thing missing was a place to hang coats after being in the rain all day.

Second stay at It's a Charmed Life
My friends and I attend the PA Gourd Festival in Lebanon the same week/weekend and chose to stay here again this year because it is a lovely location and the home/owners are very thoughtful. It didn't disappoint. Highly recommend others choose this location when staying in the Lebanon/Mt Gretna area. Much more affordable & comfortable than a hotel. Charming for sure.

Family vacation
The area is nice and it’s not a bad drive to Hershey or surrounding areas. The upstairs was very hot it needed window air conditioners and it could have been a little cleaner there were spider webs and it was dusty in places but we had a fun stay anyway.

Suggestions from Senior Renters
We enjoyed our stay at Its A Charmed Life. The well-stocked kitchen, plentiful towels and comfortable sitting areas made our stay very enjoyable. We also were impressed by the excellent communication with the owners. Our family congregated there for some memorable evenings. We would like to offer a few suggestions to the owners that might make this property more appealing to our fellow seniors: 1. The handrail at the entrance should be closer to the doorway to allow better support on entry. 2. A small bedside table with lamp would be helpful. I use a cpap machine and had to borrow a table from another room. 3. More hangers in the closets and perhaps a folding luggage rack would be a nice touch. 4. A removable shower wand in the downstairs shower would prevent the user from having to stand under a blast of icy cold water while waiting for the water to warm up. 5. The trash dumpster is not only a great distance from the cottage but hard to find. I think many people our age would gladly pay a few extra dollars to have the someone else haul out the accumulated trash at the end of their stay.

Family support
I really enjoyed the stay under the circumstances. The part that I enjoyed personally it was all the little things. Down to the sugar for coffee, body wash, games to play with the family was wonderful gestures. Everything was close by and it was very quiet and peaceful. Overall, it was a peaceful and enjoyable place to stay.
