Planned a trip to Hershey for friends and family to get together. Easy 25 minute ride to the house, cottage was cute and exactly as described. Kids loved the ice cream place around the corner. Wish we stayed longer so we could have checked out the lake area nearby. Would definitely stay here again!
My family stayed here and had a wonderful time. Everything was perfect. We played games on the front porch, we ate dinner at the table together, and enjoyed walking to the jigger shop for our evening dessert. I highly recommend staying here and hope to be back again soon.
This year our stay at The Eliza Mae coincided with an intense heat wave. But true to the history of Mount Gretna, it was @ 8 degrees cooler there than in town. The porch fans and AC inside made it possible to still enjoy our stay. We had our traditional Ladiesâ Night on the porch, as well as had several friends and relatives stop by during the week to enjoy the beauty and comfort of that spectacular front porch! Thanks Marianne for allowing us to enjoy your cottage. Canât wait til next year⊠will be our 5th!
We come from around the country to meet once a year. We find the Eliza Mae a great place to wind down and enjoy each otherâs company. The cottage is well stocked with bedding, and the kitchen has all you need for cooking.
The cottage was peaceful and relaxing. It was close to numerous attractions and was a great spot to come back to after a busy day. The kids loved the fairy garden and pond.
My family and I have been coming to Gretna since before I can remember! Weâve stayed in dozens of cottages and this one was one of our favorites! We loved it so much we already plan on staying there again next summer. Thank you Marianne for such a lovely stay!!
Our stay at Eliza Mae Cottage was perfect. The home was steeped in history and modernized well for comfort. We found it charming and relaxing and will visit again!
Beautiful cottage...room for all & still have some privacy. Very quiet neighborhood...we were probably the loud, rowdy ones. Owners were great w/information & readily accessible if needed.
Beautiful cottage and a wonderful place to spend the Christmas holiday. Marianne went above and beyond to make the stay welcoming especially for the holiday. Thank you for making our stay enjoyable and for helping to create wonderful holiday memories. I am looking forward to our next visit to the cottage.
We love staying at Eliza Mae Cottage in Mt Gretna. It is a quaint , well kept house with a lovely outdoors area that has fish pond in a beautiful setting of plants and flowers. The kitchen is very well stocked. The beds are very comfy and cozy. The porch is big and comfortable and a great place to sit and relax, read a book or have great conversations.
Marianne went above and beyond for us. Communication was top notch every step of the way. I highly recommend this location and there are so many attractions just minutes away.
We had a great time at the cottage and most of our time was spent on the porch. Great use of space with multiple seating areas and fans to make sure we were very comfortable.
The house was amazing as was the home owner, she checked in on us when we got there and at the end of our stay! Best place ever! And fully stocked kitchen for everyone that likes to cook like us.
Our family has stayed at Marianne's cottage several times and we keep going back because it is a wonderful retreat! We enjoy cooking most of our meals at the cottage because the kitchen is well equipped. Our boys enjoy the fish pond and the large, beautiful backyard for playing. Marianne has thought of everything and is a phenomenal host! Highly recommend!
This was our 3rd year staying at the Eliza Mae and weâl be back next year!! My sisters and I love the cottage. It feels like a 2nd home to us. The owners are the nicest people. If youâre in the area this cottage with the beautiful front porch is a must see!
The cottage was perfect for an old fashioned summer holiday with a wide shaded porch and everything you might need. Lazy afternoons at the lake and dinners on the porch- what more could you ask for?
A perfect Mount Gretna property!! An excellent balance of character and modern comforts!! We all loved everything about the cottage and surrounding area, from grandma to the kids! We cannot recommend this property highly enough!!
Cute little cottage in Mt.Gretna. We used it as our home base for a trip to Hershey Park and we wished we had planned more time in the Mt. Gretna area. Owner was great and provided all the comforts needed for a stress free stay. The cottage fit three adults and four kids comfortably. It has beautiful gardens and the porch was perfect to relax on.
The house is great and decorated beautifully. I was able to meet the owner and she is lovely. Very low key, not a lot if 'rules' [i.e. washing the sheets/towels, making the bed up yourself, etc.] The porch is wonderful and there is parking.
I would highly recommend this rental.
This was our second time staying at the Eliza Mae. Once again, Marianne was an excellent hostess. All questions were answered promptly. The cottage was extremely clean and the fall decor was charming. The kitchen is easy to cook in and well stocked. Our favorite park is the front porch and we spent many hours there relaxing and bonding with each other. We look forward to returning to Mt Gretna next year.
