Property Description
Now is your opportunity to be part of the quaint and utterly adorable village of Mt. Gretna. The "Dutch Shaker" is a peaceful oasis in the heart of Campmeeting, just steps away from the historic Mt. Gretna Tabernacle. Relax on its cozy screened-in porch while enjoying coffee and listening to the birds that live amongst the tall tree's of Pennsylvania's only Chautauqua. This four-season cottage has all the charm of older properties (including a wood-burning fireplace) but modern amenities like a well-appointed eat-in kitchen with a mid-century modern feel and stain-less steel appliances. The cottage has electric baseboards as well as split-units for heat/AC, a hidden stackable washer and dryer combo, charming light fixtures and a beautiful Nordic ceiling fan. Upstairs are two bedrooms and a reading or tv room. The current owners remodeled the space from three bedrooms; reverting to that design could be easily accomplished. The bathroom is equipped with both a clawfoot tub and an enclosed shower featuring a rainfall showerhead.
There is another deck with a brick patio off the kitchen in the back, perfect for a grill and maybe an herb garden. There is enclosed storage space for bicycles and the like beneath the cottage. And unlike many Campmeeting properties, this home includes a compact parking space with a power connection placed for hybrid electric vehicles.
This cottage sits in the middle of a beautiful, quiet street. It is walking distance from the Mt. Gretna Lake and Beach, The Jigger Shop, and the famous Gretna Theatre (the oldest continuously operating summer theatre in America). Have breakfast at the Porch & Pantry, or grab dinner and listen to live music at the the Mt. Gretna Hideaway, Quentin Tavern or the Bluebird Inn. People also love to fish and mountain bike along the Lebanon Valley Rail-Trail.
Mt. Gretna has miniature golf, a roller-skating rink, a library, playgrounds, tennis courts, and the Governor Dick trail system- more than 1,000 acres of forest featuring 16 miles of trails, a 66-foot-tall observation tower, and an Environmental Learning Center. Hersheypark is only 15 miles away and there are plenty of great golf courses surrounding the area.
This cottage is absolutely perfect for an artistic retreat, a toe-dip into retirement, an investment rental, or just a comfortable touchdown space for all that Gretna has to offer. Plan to see it yourself and you'll never want to leave.
