Amazing Experience!

Wow! This was, by far, the best VRBO we have ever stayed at while on vacation! The owners thought of every single thing we could possibly need which made everyone happy. I can't say enough great things about the communication, options at the house, location of the house, and the tiny little details the homeowners took care of. Honestly our vacation was made even more spectacular because of this house!

Fantastic Stay at The Funky Dutchman!

Our stay at The Funky Dutchman was absolutely perfect! The property had so much character—quirky, fun, and comfortable, making it the ideal home base for our Northeast adventure. We traveled to explore New York, D.C., and other nearby destinations, and the location made it easy to get around while still providing a peaceful retreat at the end of the day.The home was spotless, well-equipped, and full of thoughtful touches that made us feel right at home. The hosts were communicative and accommodating, ensuring our stay was seamless from start to finish. If you’re looking for a unique and cozy place to stay, The Funky Dutchman is a fantastic choice. Highly recommend!

Awesome place!

The Funky Dutchman was an amazing place! The owners really stocked this place with everything you could possibly think of and were very responsive! The game room was a huge hit, as well as all of the character that the house had. We loved how close we were to the Rotunda Brew Pub, and just a short drive to all of the Hershey attractions. We had a great time and would definitely recommend this place to all of our friends and family!

Great winter break

We were hoping for a great escape for us and our granddaughters during their winter break and the Funky Dutchman did not disappoint! The gardens and zoo are surprisingly fun in the winter and Chocolate World can easily fill a day. Best of all, though, was hanging out at the house. We all loved the hot tub even in 20 degree weather! The game room was a big hit too, especially foosball. We watched movies in the theater room every night. With popcorn. The kitchen had everything we needed for a family dinner, but we also had a great meal at a fun restaurant right across the street. Highly recommend this place.

GREAT STAY AMAZING HOUSE WE WILL RETURN

We had a great time and can't wait to return! Owners were so great so easy to work with and made this totally stress free! The communication from the owners and instructions and directions were the best we have experienced in terms of renting a home. House was amazing in all ways and accurately pictured but even the pictures do not fully do it justice!

Great spot!

The Funky Dutchman was the best kind of funky! Everything was very clean, well stocked, so nice they provide sheets and towels and so much more! The kids (ranging from ages 4 to 9) had a BLAST - so much to do between the game room, movie room, pool, hot tub, smores by the fire and more. Easy drive to Hershey each day. The hosts communication was great. Would definitely stay again!

We had such an amazing stay with 2 families with young children and dog. Our kids didn't want to leave the game room area and movie theater. The location is wonderful and super convenient to have garage parking. There were so many thoughtful touches such as the popcorn for the movie theater, extra blankets coffee and tea station. It was very clean and one of the best stays we have had!

Best Rental Ever!

We booked the Funky Dutchman for our daughter’s birthday trip to Hershey Park. The home was beautifully decorated and had fall decor throughout. We couldn’t stop talking about how much we loved the home. The owners have thought about every detail and supplied everything you would need during your stay. The girls had so much fun with all the games, movie room and hot tub. We couldn’t have booked a better place to stay! We have already discussed coming back for future trips to Hershey. The town of Annville is also a gem with restaurants and coffee shops walking distance away. The owners had great communication about checking in and out but we really didn’t need to contact them at all as everything was clearly written down throughout the home. Thank you so much for a great place to stay!! It was a trip we will remember forever!
