Lancaster Hotel Guide - or- Group Reservations Request

Amish FarmingWinner of a 2001 Family-Friendly Travel Award! Lancaster, PA is the second best family destination in America, according to FamilyFun magazine readers who selected Lancaster, PA as the #2 Top Pick Tourist Town in the nation. Come find out what others already know - fun feels different here in Lancaster County. Here's the Lancaster CowCam!

There's more than one century at play here. Explore the back roads and byways, farm lanes and riverbanks, and you'll find yourself enjoying a past that's still vibrantly present along with all the excitement of today's adventures and attractions. That's really the magical part. Enjoy the fun of two worlds in one.

History liked it so much here, it never left. There are over 25 museums to meander through as well as mansions and gardens to explore. Landmarks and landscapes from centuries past beckon still. They even have a Presidential estate and communities where "modern life" rolls by ... without automobiles, jangling telephones, or electricity.

Listen as hustle and bustle fades to clippety-clop. No matter where you are in Lancaster County, you're only a short, scenic drive from some of the most captivating country in the country. Suddenly, you're in another time, another world. One just waiting to be explored. Whether you explore the countryside or you take a carriage ride, you'll be able to enjoy the beautiful scenery and heritage of the Pennsylvania Dutch Country.

Relax, you're among friends. Visiting with here isn't just a matter of getting away from it all. It's about getting back to it all and discovering the honest charm of simple, homespun pleasures. That charm is everywhere you look within the Plain Sect communities. Here, buggies amble down country roads. Children play outside one room schoolhouses, and farm stands showcase crafts, quilts, and the world's best shoofly pie. Lancaster Hotel Guide
