Sibling & Spouse Retreat

My brothers and all our spouses meet up once a year to visit, play games and see new places. We chose Buena Vista Homestead this year. It really is a farm in the beautiful Lancaster area surrounded by other farms. A very peaceful place with goats and chickens and a beautiful view. The house is beautifully designed and meticulously maintained. Extras like paper products and coffee/tea are provided with lots of towels. The host & hostess respond to questions quickly and ensure an enjoyable visit. All 6 of us highly recommend this location.

So beautiful, so friendly, we must return!

Ruthy was so amazing and welcoming to the place which is a plus all by itself. Then upon a late arrival which she graciously set out and left the lights on for us, we were so impressed with the fresh beautiful setup of all of the rooms and living spaces. High quality beds and bedding. The showers and tubs were fantastic. The kitchen had everything we needed and the main downstairs room was just an inviting space to hang out and play games with the family ;-) The outdoor space we didn’t get to use as we had daily plans but it looked perfect to sit at and enjoy. We will do that when we return! Don’t hesitate to book this place. We have done many VRBO stays all over and this sets a high bar. Thank you Ruthy and family!
