Visiting Lancaster is a great choice when considering your next vacation. With its vibrant history, variety of outdoor activities, and beautiful architecture, there’s something for everyone in Lancaster County. However, if you’re looking for a special accommodation for your trip, you might want to consider renting a cottage. Cottage rentals offer a unique vacation experience — they’re cozy, homey, and private — and provide a wealth of amenities and activities.
When it comes to rental outposts, Lancaster has a variety of options for travelers. Depending upon your party size and budget, you can find a variety of ranging from lakeside cabins to beautiful country homes. But why choose a cottage in Lancaster? Here are four reasons to consider a cottage when travelling to Lancaster:
One reason to choose a cottage is the extra amenities you’ll get. Cottages tend to provide extras for renters that you wouldn’t get at a hotel — like a fully-functional kitchen, a fireplace, and comfortable furnishings that provide an attractive, homey atmosphere. A well equipped cottage is great for travelers who want to cook family meals or gather around the fire with friends.
Another reason to choose a cottage is that it will likely be near one of Lancaster’s many attractions. Whether you’re taking in the views of Intercourse or exploring Amish Country, you will be able to choose a cottage that puts you close to all the sights you want to explore.
Thirdly, cottages are often more affordable than other rental accommodation options. Not only is it cheaper per person when multiple people are staying in a larger cottage, but you also don’t have to pay for extra amenities like you would in a hotel. With a cottage, you get all the necessities you need — oven, refrigerator, and utilities — in one flat fee.
Finally, staying in a cottage rental gives you all the privacy that a hotel can’t — it’s just you and your family or friends. This is great for those who want to take a break from the bustle of everyday life. Plus, you can relax outdoor in the fresh air without worrying about your surroundings.
From all the amenities to the great location and added privacy, renting a cottage in Lancaster is the perfect way to make your stay that much more memorable. With so many cottages on offer, you’ll be sure to find the one that best suits your group’s needs.
