Family-friendly vacation rentals in Harrisburg

My father and I stayed at Elizabeth’s place for my brother’s graduation from Gettysburg. We thoroughly enjoyed the peace and quiet of the location. Elizabeth’s place was beautifully styled and I really appreciated her attention to detail. Elizabeth was a great host. She was so responsive and I could tell genuinely cared for our every need. I would recommend her place!

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.

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!!

We had a great golf weekend in the area and really liked the accommodations. It was private, enough to fit 8 golfers, and close to many of the course we played. We will go back again.

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

Michael was a great host and excellent communicator. He was able to help us out when our trip was in jeopardy of falling apart. The space is huge and very unique. The location is amazing !

Beautiful and huge — so much space and the many beds and bathrooms (plus two kitchens!) very comfortably accommodated our big family gathering. Loved the piano, and indoor amenities such as the pool table and theater/stage kept everyone busy. Host was very gracious and helpful, and the discounted rate due to last-minute availability was reasonable and fortunate for our large group, as the location we’d booked several months earlier cancelled only 2 days before our intended arrival due to a house fire. Lovely stay!

We stayed 3 nights with our young grandchildren they enjoyed the pool area and the fire pit. (For the s’mores of-course) There was enough room for the 4 of us to sit and relax watch tv and play some games. The house is centrally located to the restaurants,entertainment,and sight and sound theater. had a great time away and would visit Ruth’s home again.

This was my second visit to Mimm’s. It was wonderful four years ago when I visited with my family and was again superb for my recent visit with four friends. Mimm’s is an authentic farmhouse on a property with a working barn with farm animals. The house is filled with antiques and small touches like quilts and period wallpaper throughout so that one is immersed in the farm feel, but the house is also immaculate and has excellent WiFi, lovely bathrooms and other modern amenities. Marcia, the host, is very responsive, practical and clear. My friends and I are looking forward to a return visit.

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.

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!

Our whole family loved being in this home away from home. It was our first trip up to Lancaster, and we will definitely be back. It was beautifully decorated, very peaceful on the back deck, and the layout was perfect with our 3 kids. It was easy to take walks, and we even found a small playground within walking distance. Elmina and Ernie thought of everything, even providing games and books. They were very accommodating and welcoming and our kids loved meeting their dogs. Thank you for such a lovely stay!

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

We had such a wonderful stay and hope this will be our home away from home when we visit Lancaster again. The property was beautiful, tastefully decorated, clean, and centrally located. There were so many thoughtful touches within such as makeup microfiber cloths in the bathroom, a chest of small toys (my 3 year old was completely enamored) and white noise machines in both bedrooms. We had such a lovely time watching the horse and buggies go by while sitting on the rocking chairs on the front porch, and taking strolls to the playground just minutes away.

The place was very clean and looked just like the posted photos! It is in a rural small town location but it isn’t too far from some cute restaurants and about a 30 minute drive to Hershey Park. It was also nice to have a small parking lot in front of the house rather than needing to street park

Brian was a great host and the home was wonderful to stay in. Easy instructions and not too many house rules, so we didn't feel like we were on edge. The loft was very unique and had so much to be discovered.

Anne and Chris are both incredible hosts! We have stayed at Cambridge Meadows two years in a row now, and have had an incredible experience both times. It’s close enough to so many restaurants and activities, but the bnb is also nice enough to be able to stay in and hang out there, so there’s a good balance of both!

We had a wonderful experience staying at this charming historic home. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the care and attention that’s gone into preserving the character of the house while still offering all the modern comforts we needed for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. The home itself is full of character with many intricate antique details and unique architectural touches that speak to its rich history. Yet it was also immaculately clean and equipped with everything we needed, from a well-stocked kitchen to comfortable beds and linens. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and responsive, offering great local recommendations and making sure we felt right at home. The area was exactly what we were looking for: peaceful and quiet. This was the perfect blend of charm, comfort, and hospitality. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again and highly recommend this wonderful place!

we loved our stay at Brenda's. Spacious, clean, and cozy and we enjoyed being able to have a fire going on chilly evenings. the sunsets were immaculate and we loved seeing the neighbor's animals (cows, mini horses, etc) roam while enjoying a great view. Brenda was an absolute pleasure to be around and is very friendly. I felt very welcomed and comfortable here, and me and my family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We stayed here as we were waiting to close on a home we are buying nearby. we had actually left two airbnbs right before finding Brenda's (one because of a bad experience and the other because of issues with the house). We were so relieved with our stay at Brenda's. It is easy to see that she takes good care of the rentals and land and definitely takes good care of visitors. I highly recommend anyone to stay!

We had such a nice stay there going to sight & sound as well as a wedding!
