Once again our stay could not be beat.
The place is immaculate, comfy, and the location is spot on for antiquing. We love listening to the fountain and the entertainment at the restaurant which is directly across from Gasthof Fretz.
The owner is wonderful and so easy to communicate with.
This is the only place to stay when pin Adamstown.

This was our second time staying here and we enjoyed it just as much as the first time. We went to the restaurant across the square every night and got to hear live music on Friday. The townhouse was as advertised and had everything we needed. While here, we went to the Sight and Sound Theater, Shady Maple, and lots of shopping. It was a great place to stay.

We loved our stay at this property. Check in went off without a flaw. The place was clean and beautifully decorated. You can tell the owner takes great pride in making sure everything was perfect. The location was really cool situated in a classic German village look with shops and restaurants. A must stay if in the area. We’ll definitely be rebooking this property in the future.

My friends and I loved this house, and location. We are all in our 70's, and it was perfect. Close to many sights We wanted to see, and the Village itself, was so lovely. We met many beautiful people! I have recommended it.

Instructions for the TV and also a list of what to do before checking out would be helpful. Host was very easy to communicate with.

The home, it's decor, cleanliness, and comfort are superb.
What a beautiful village. There was a band playing in the courtyard on Friday, and a flea market on Saturday. I love relaxing to the sound of the fountain.
The host is both prompt and gracious. I had to call him and we ended up having lovely conversations.
It is so peaceful and relaxing that we hate to leave.
Being returning guests I can assure you this is the only place to stay when visiting Adamstown.

Overall great stay. Place was just as described. Very nice decor. Convenient to everything we were doing. Easy to find and loved that we could pull in the garage especially with the weather rain and wind. None of the stores were open to shop but met some really nice people in the community. Overall woukd definitely recommend and book again.
Only recommendations: a better lock on the entry door. Large gap in the door meeting and just didnt seem that secure in my opinion.
Deep pocket sheets for the bed. Sheets did not fit well and kept sliding off.

Very nice home. Comfortable beds and furniture with plenty of room for all of us. Hosts responded quickly. Great location and close drive to everywhere we needed to be. We would stay there again.

We were so delighted to stay in Adamstown at Stoudburg Village. It was such a unique location -- we took several walks through the village's charming streets. The view from every window looked out upon The Plaza and to the streets beyond. We were so happy to be here for the holiday to see all the decorations. Thank you so much for your hospitality!

Peaceful and super clean in a GREAT location if you are antiquing or need a home base for a wedding at Bear Mill Estates! Exactly as pictures depict, well stocked with the basics and we loved admiring their travel treasures. Super comfy beds and my husband is now in search of a chair like they had in the living room! Don’t miss the live music across the courtyard on the weekends at the German pub. A wonderful weekend. Thank you!

The apartment is very comfortable and clean and was a good place to stay for a long weekend while attending a wedding in the area. The owner was very responsive to my questions. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms quite nice. The unit is decorated nicely, far better than other places we have stayed. Overall a very nice experience.
5.0
Very quaint little village with some dining and shopping within this unique spot. Plus the town of Adamstown is filled with antiques galore.
Ahmish country is just a 20 minute drive (if you can do it without stopping a t a roadside stand). So this was a perfect base for what we wanted to do.
We had a great time in the evening sitting around in this great home talking about our day. Something we wouldn’t have been able to do as comfortably had we stayed in a hotel.

Amazing
Amazing home, amazing location. The home is immaculately clean, beautifully furnished, and perfectly located to all we had on our agenda. We enjoyed all the antique stores, the restaurant across the street from the house, listening to the music and the fountain in the evening, and the proximity to Lititz.
The owner couldn't have been kinder and was very quick in responding to our questions.
Gasthof Fretts is without doubt both the best deal and nicest accommodation in Adamstown.

This home was a wonderful & relaxing getaway! Everything was so clean & the space was cozy & inviting. We ate out while we were there, but the kitchen seemed well stocked with basics.

I booked this beautiful condo because of it’s unique location in an authentic German village! It’s like a mini trip to Europe, complete with some charming shops. The condo did not disappoint- it’s super clean, comfortable with all the amenities that you might need. We loved the whimsical decor and the view from the living room of the gorgeous plaza. James and Olena were fabulous hosts answering all of my questions. I highly recommend this property! So fun!

Family and I absolutely love this home. Lots to do within a 30-minute drive. The home was cozy, warm and really let our family connect during this busy time of year.
Thank you so much for sharing this with us!

Fabulous fortnight !!
Wonderful two week stay at a fabulous VRBO. Super clean in a great location. Sad that I didn't rent for the month. Looking forward to my next extended trip to Lancaster County. Thank you our very accommodating host James Frett !!

Very Clean Property
In today's world, cleanliness is a must, and this property delivered. To me, that's the most important thing, hence the four star rating. Two things kept it from being a five star. First, the kitchen is NOT well stocked. Essentials like mixing bowls were not there. Second, the "shopping village" on the first floors is non-existent. Perhaps this is seasonal, perhaps Covid, or maybe the concept never took off. Regardless, the village feels more like a Universal theme park than a Bavarian village. Littitz was nearby, though, and a nice diversion for a morning out.
