About the host
Hosted by Edna Miller
Bob & Edna Miller are a retired couple ready to welcome visitors to their cozy cabin! Originally located at a local girl scout camp, this cabin was cut in thirds and transported to its current location in the early 1960s. The cabin was then used as a hunting cabin for a family from Lancaster, PA. When the cabin was listed for sale by the family, the Miller's decided to purchase the property and renovate the cabin to use as a rental.
Why they chose this property
Quiet country atmosphere to enjoy natural surroundings but close enough to local communities for sporting events, concerts and plays, shopping, dining, and other activities within 15 to 30 minute commute.
