My stay at the B F Hiestand house was wonderful. If you are looking for a great place to stay in the area - check this out. The hosts are so kind and welcoming. Breakfast was so delicious and all the wonderful touches in the home that make you feel a sense of casual elegance. Easy parking and entry as well with a digital code for after hours access. As a business traveler - I enjoyed the high speed internet and the ability to get work done online while in the house. My co-worker loved the room they were in as well and all the things that make the B F Hiestand house a great home away from home.

This property is falsely represented as quiet and peaceful. The cottage is about 15 feet from a highway!! They provide free earplugs and a white noise machine, neither one of these helps to eliminate the traffic noise which goes on all night. The cottage smelled so strongly of Lysol that our clothes smelt for days afterwards. We left after one night and would NOT recommend this B and B.

BEST CHOICE!!! Clean, comfortable, modern and generous amenities. Our 2 dogs were ecstatic with the room, easily accommodating the 4 of us! We stayed in the cottage; any room is great! Beautiful home and grounds. wonderful hostess, excellent breakfasts! Excellent, responsive service throughout our 5 night stay. Beautiful park with bike path and the Susquehanna River just 2 blocks away! Minutes from Lancaster and the Amish region. If you want relaxation in a beautiful location (have i used that word before?), book and enjoy!Rooms: We stayed in the cottage alongside the main house. Main house is beautifully renovated to resemble the 1880's original structure but with new appliances. Rooms are immaculate and well-furnished.Nearby activities: Lancaster and Amish country. We strongly recommend the Lancaster State Park for walking and swimming with your pets in the Conestoga River.Noteworthy details: jacuzzi is ample and comfortable. couples size walk in shower.Keurig coffee maker and coffee pods in the room; personal fan, frig and microwave as well. WIFI is 2G. Like architecture? "Downtown" Marietta is mostly refurbished homes from 1786 to 1920.

I chose BF Hiestand House, for spouse's surprise birthday getaway, based on the great reviews here. Excellent choice! The house is charming and well-appointed. Lots of "little" details that must only come from long experience in the business: mini-fridge for those needing to refrigerate medications, sleep machine and AC/USB outlets on the bedside table, bathrobes, flavorings for cold water drinks, light source in bathroom in case of AC outage. Loads of brochures with information on local attractions. Lots of things to do and see in surrounding area (Marietta and Columbia for us, plus a wonderful show at the Fulton Theater in Lancaster). Excellent restaurants and pubs not far away. (McCleary's was great!) The hosts, Pam and Dallas, are as nice as people you would want to meet! They are welcoming and friendly without being intrusive and they know the local area like the back of their hands. Breakfasts were splendid and unhurried. Adequate off street parking. Sure, some minor noise from the nearby highway and an odd train-whistle. but they are no match for the very comfortable beds, silent room air conditioning and ceiling fan. In sum, a great place to relax. The owners are dog lovers and welcome pets - but from the cleanliness and sense of fresh country air that pervades the house you would never suspect that a canine friend might have been a guest. Very highly recommended! Thank you for a relaxing stay in your home.

We had a wonderful stay at the B F Hiestand House B & B. The location was central to many of the activities we attended. The breakfasts (daily) were scrumptious and the attentiveness of Pam and Dallas was unsurpassed! Thank you! Dave &

Pam and Dallas were exceptional hosts and we loved both days that we stayed. We met three other couples that had stayed here on other occasions. I would recommend this place to anyone.

I needed to find somewhere close to the nursing home my mother is in. I found this wonderful bed and breakfast 5 minutes away. Pam and Dallas(and Mac their dog) are wonderful people; they were helpful from restaurant recommendations to outdoor activities. There is a great biking trail across the street. Breakfast is superb. Since my first visit I have been here total 3 times. It feels like a home away from home!Nice and quiet, nice guests, and close to many restaurants and activities. Coming back soon!Lisa Fligel

My Labrador, Daisy, and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the BF Hiestand House B&B. Beautifully restored, the parlors were inviting as was the enormous front porch with its lovely area to sit. Pam and Dallas and Pam's mother were very friendly and especially made an effort to chat with guests at the breakfast table. Since breakfast times are staggered to keep guests safe, this was especially appreciated by all the guests. The Blakemore Room was comfortable, and the bed was just right with its ironed soft sheets. Breakfast was delicious, and Pam made a special effort to accommodate my gluten free requirements. I highly recommend this B&B! The town, Marietta, was charming and seems to have something fun to do every weekend. The weekend I was there was a riverfront festival and also artists painting in plein aire. We look forward to returning!

This B&B is a beautiful, historical Victorian house that is quaint, cozy and inviting with an expansive front porch. Located 30 minutes from the Harrisburg Airport, Pam & Dallas are welcoming, personable and very accommodating hosts. The variety of daily homemade breakfasts were delicious. We stayed in the Vanderslice suite -- it was clean, comfortable and spacious! We absolutely loved our stay & will definitely return when in the area again!

My wife and I stayed here this past weekend for our anniversary and it was wonderful. We stayed in the cottage and it was beautiful. Breakfast was amazing both days and we has some great conversations with Pam and another couple staying there. We highly recommend staying here as we tend to pick a new bed and breakfast each year for our anniversary and this one has by far been the best.
