Our extended family, consisting of 16 adults from several states, gathered for a weekend. Plenty of room to gather together, talk, play cards, and cook; all in a beautiful historic residence. If you have a large group, and are looking for a unique experience, I'd recommend this be at the top of your list of considerations.

Overall, we had a good experience. The kids had a good time in playroom. Kitchen was clean and plenty of space to cook and store food. The third floor was not useable due to the heat.

The King's Cottage is the perfect venue for a group trip, with beautiful bedrooms (and enough for even quite a large group to give everyone their privacy), a palatial dining room, with a table that can seat twenty, and plenty more space in the living room and game room. It also has enough bathrooms for everyone, often the one critical missing piece in a big vacation house rental. It's just a quick drive or a half hour walk to Central Market and all the other spots in downtown Lancaster that we came to visit. For the first few hours after arriving the most common thing I heard people saying was "wait, there's more to see over here" as people explored the house and picked out their rooms. We hope to stay here again whenever we're back in Lancaster over the next few years!

This historic home is as advertised. We enjoyed our stay and had everything we needed. The property manager was very prompt in replying to questions. It was a wonderful place for our large family to gather for a couple days.

Our whole family gathers every year for Thanksgiving. We need a space for 12 people to stay and 20 people to eat dinner. The kitchen's double ovens and twin refrigerators were used to make meals, including Thanksgiving dinner. Overall the house served our needs to a tee.
