3 Bedroom House in Mechanicsburg, Harrisburg

This is your opportunity to stay at a very special property which is only minutes from the delights of Hershey (25 minutes), the history of Gettysburg (40 minutes)/Harrisburg (15 minutes), and Lancaster (50 minutes), or the summer or winter fun of Ski Round Top (15 minutes).
The “Wright Retreat” is a home that was designed in 1963 by a student of Frank Lloyd Wright. The home is set on a beautiful 7 acre wooded lot at the end of a quarter mile long driveway. Relax on the large 2-level back patio, overlooking the treed acreage and pool, and enjoy only the sounds and sights of the wide variety of birds (including hawks and eagles), deer and an occasional fox, or, host an event (wedding, retreat) for family and friends.
The unique aspects of this one level, 4,200 square foot home include a large corner fireplace in the living room (one of Frank Lloyd Wright’s signature features), a smaller fireplace in the master bedroom suite and a wood burning stove in the family room; built-in couches and bookshelves in the large open living room and in the family room, adjacent to the kitchen; built in desks, planters and dressers abound throughout the home; and skylights in the kitchen and master bathroom enhance the warm of the home. A second large family room/library with a large screen TV and leather furniture is a short distance away from the kitchen area. This home contains over 125 different windows, making Frank Lloyd Wright’s vision of bringing nature into your living environment, a reality.
Whether you want to escape from your hectic life, take advantage of the many activities in the surrounding area, or host an event, do it in the “Wright Retreat”!

Summary: We picked this house based on logistics. We are scattered around the country and wanted to minimize plane fares. We also wanted a house with a pool and one that allowed dogs. But this house FAR exceeded our minimal expectations. What an honor to stay in a house designed by one of Frank Lloyd Wright's students, especially because we have made an effort to visit various Wright houses open to the public. The highlight for us was definitely the wonderful pool and we were lucky to have perfect weather. But the house, which is comfortable in every way, would have kept us relaxed and entertained in rainy weather also. We at almost all of our meals at the house and it was more than adequately equipped. The bed arrangement, with a semi-private room for two of our daughters, was ideal. We would definitely come back.

Summary: The 'Wright' Retreat was clean, well stocked, and very private. It is close to various Harrisburg/Hershey/Gettysburg attractions but the in-ground pool was a bigger hit with the kids. We spent a couple of days just enjoying the pool. Michael was easy to work with and responsive to all messages and inquiries.
