Big house, big yard, close to everything in Mount Gretna!!

Welcome to Happy Landing Bungalow!
It’s a large house with a huge yard. Feel like you are in the country but be close to everything.
The Hide-A-Way restaurant is a stones throw away, the Jigger Shop a comfortable walk. Gretna lake, roller rink and rails to trails a short drive.
The house offers four bedrooms, WI-FI, Cable TV, Smart TVs, Sauna in the Primary Bedroom and a Jetted Tub (not a hot tub) in the Primary Bathroom. The lower level is handicap friendly, featuring a walk in bathtub, a kitchenette, a queen size sleeper sofa, a large flat screen tv, and a twin size trundle bed in the adjacent room.
The house and grounds also boast a creek, gazebo, decks, and a large covered porch, and lots of parking!!!
It’s close to Hershey, Lancaster, Lebanon, and Harrisburg, with a short 30 mins. to the Harrisburg airport.
For those first time guests that are not familiar with Mount Gretna, Happy Landing and all of Mount Gretna is served by our local volunteer fire department located a stone’s throw from the house, just across the street from the Hide-A-Way Restaurant. It is not uncommon for the siren to sound at any time of day or night. There is no reason to be alarmed if it goes off during your stay as it is the way that the fire company alerts the volunteers that a call has come in that they may need to respond. We appreciate your understanding.

Working Vacation

The house was clean and beautiful. However, it was not exactly handicap friendly. There was wheelchair accessibility on the first floor, which I was informed of. The bathroom on the first floor was not very accessible to the shower. The opening to the handicap shower was right by the sink making it hard to assist my autistic, wheelchair bound individual in and out of the shower.

Great place to stay!

You can walk to the Hideaway which is a friendly tavern with great food and entertainment. The fire whistle is loud but it only rang twice in 4 days. None of the tubs work and showering in them is not fun! They are too short! You cannot use the sauna or the fireplaces either.

Peaceful Relaxing Getaway

The house was nice and spacious. It had a very homey feel. I loved the historical pictures of how the house progressed over the years. The porch was so nice and loved drinking my morning coffee and listening to the birds. It was secluded yet close to restaurants and activities. A very nice stay!

Family Visit to Hershey Park

We had a great time during our stay in Mount Gretna. Besides the Hershey Park fun we also enjoyed a self guided Covered Bridge tour, the Yuengling Factory tour and Ice Cream at the Ice Cream place in town....and the decks on the house were great...

Mt. Gretna

We stayed at the Happy Landing Bungalow while we were in town for our son's baseball tournament. There was plenty of house, and the yard was great. You can tell this home has been loved by the same family for years. We had a little problem the first day, but the owner took care it immediately. Would stay here again if we come back to the area.

Perfect for our needs

We needed a place that would sleep a lot of people as we were traveling to a big lacrosse tournament with three locations with another family. This place was perfectly situated between the three fields we needed to be at and gave both families the space we needed to be comfortable. This is an annual tournament and we will definitely be looking to book again next year!

Hershey Park Cousin’s Trip

Loved reading the history of the home and the families that have grown up in it. We felt very cozy and LOVED the outdoor yard. My son and I played football and my wife and I loved the swing seat to just watch nature. All the kids loved the bunk beds and my wife really enjoyed the sauna. The proximity of the restaurant was incredible. Thanks for allowing us to stay at your lovely home.

We loved staying here! Wonderful home. All contact with the host, though little was necessary, was positive and timely. The only negative I would say is that you are almost forced to purchase renter's insurance; the alternative is paying a very hefty security deposit.

Nice house, good location

We enjoyed our stay at this property. It was within walking distance of the Jigger Shop, the Playhouse, playground and the Tabernacle. The only problem was that the 4th bedroom in the back of the house required that you had to go through another bedroom to get to it. This was a mild inconvenience. The kitchen was fully stocked and paper towels and dishwasher pods were provided. Toilet paper was also provided. Nice place with a nice deck and yard.
