Amish Farm Stay

The kids loved the farm so much, they asked to skip other activities to stay and keep playing with the dogs, goats, cows, horses, pigs, chickens, and lightning bugs. Our home was beautiful and we loved having the open windows and fans instead of being trapped into summer air conditioning like usual. The fresh milk, eggs, and bagels were incredible. They breed gorgeous Corgi puppies for sale and our kids tried to order several! We love the outdoors so we really enjoyed walking to Intercourse, driving to local hiking with river views, and jogging on the country roads. Next time we will also kayak the river or tube the creeks nearby, and arrange horse riding. It was so pleasant not having the kids beg for screen entertainment - when it was too dark out to play, we hosted our own games and dance party inside before bed. It was perfect and the kids who came from another country asked their parents if they could return. We hope we can!!

Thank you for your review. We're very pleased that you & your family had such an enjoyable stay!

My recent stay at this charming Amish bed and breakfast farm was an unforgettable experience, offering a perfect blend of simplicity, warmth, and immersion into a slower-paced lifestyle. Nestled in the rolling countryside, this family-run farm provided a peaceful retreat from the hustle of modern life.
The lack of modern distractions like Wi-Fi or TV was a refreshing change, encouraging us to connect with each other and the surroundings. The breakfasts were a highlight—homemade, hearty, and delicious. Freshly baked bread, farm-fresh eggs, and milk.The farm stay aspect was a true delight. I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking to unplug and reconnect with nature and community. We left feeling refreshed and with a deeper appreciation for Amish culture. It was a true pleasure to meet the host and his beautiul & loving family. They have a shop in the barn where we can get real organic food as well. Yummy

Thank you for leaving a review. We're glad your family enjoyed their stay at Clearview Amish Farm Stay.

What a wonderful place!
We stayed only one night but wished we could have stayed more.
We were greeted by their son (Abram) while he was milking cows. He shows us our private home and then gave us a tour of the farm. Cows, one day old calf, horses, two day old foal, plenty of corgis (which they breed) and their 6-week old litter, a peacock, and more! We later met the father (Sylvan) who talked to us about their community, answered any questions we had and recommended a live music show in town and a delicious breakfast place the next morning!
The house was spacious and very clean. Hot shower and plenty of power.
Really, couldn't have been better!
Thank you to the lovely family at Killdeer farm!

Thank you for the review. We're glad you enjoyed your stay!

We had a wonderful stay at Killdeer Farm in April 2023. The house was spacious, super quiet and very clean, with every little detail catered for. We chatted to Sadie Esh and some of her family, and learned lots about the Amish ways of doing things. We were able to walk to Intercourse nearby, and did not need a car. Highly recommended as a timeout from the stresses and noise of modern life!

We were a group of a 7 people, visiting Lancaster for the weekend to watch Daniel at the Sight and Sound theatre. We really enjoyed our stay. The place was cleaned, simple and had everything we wanted. John was a very courteous and responsive host. The kids enjoyed feeding the goats as well. We'd definitely consider coming back should we happen to visit Lancaster again.

Great stay. Peaceful with just the right amount of 'off the grid'!
Had a lovely ride in the host family's buggy too.
Perfect for a single person or a couple wanting a retreat.

Thank you for your review!

The Lapp- family gave us a warm welcome in the form of a homemade bread, bacon and eggs. The bread was enough for 1 breakfast, the bacon and eggs lasted for our 3 breakfasts that we had.
The house is large. The beds are a bit squeaky and with some we wondered how long they would hold but it's all part of the experience. We weren't expecting something fancy.
Although the air conditioning was wonderful.

The Lapp children took us for a buggy ride, gave us a tour around the farm and gave us a great tip for a family restaurant to go eat.

As they were building a barn there was lots of noise, starting at 6am, which means we missed out on the pace and quiet part of the experience.
But overall we would highly recommend.

Hartelijk dank voor jullie recensie. Wij zijn blij dat jullie hebben genoten!

OMG! The experience was so surreal, the kind of peace and tranquillity, I experience was next to none.
The host was beyond polite, the facility was was pristine, the welcome, the tours, the town, oh I swear I’m going back.
Thanks guys for this Amish experience, I will never ever forget y’all.
One Love
Love and blessings.

We only stayed one night at this great place - just passing through - but we very much appreciated the size of the house and the autonomy we were given there. Good communication and no-hassle check-in. There were condiments, coffee, and creamer waiting and so much space to spread out after a long flight from the West Coast. I lived in Lancaster for 5 years back in the 1980's (one of those years on an Amish farm), and it was so nice to have a sweet, if short, trip back down Memory Lane. Thanks, CRFGH!

Thank you for your review. We hope you can return for another stay!

There was no power except for one outlet that was inside of a cabinet. When we stayed we were only there for 2 hours before the one outlet went out and we had no power at all. The only light source we had was battery powered lanterns and those also stopped working as well.

Thank you for your review. This is a good reminder for guests to click on the "Details" tab on our booking page in order to read the description of each lodging before making a reservation. If you had done so, you would have read that this lodging has "only one electrical outlet & battery operated lights". I'm sorry you had trouble using the outlet & operating the lamps. Elam or I could have helped you if you had tried to contact either of us.
