We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Jonde Lane Farm. Elaine and John are courteous hosts. We stayed in the hen house room, which was ample for two adults and two kids. The facilities, including the bathroom, were well-maintained. Breakfast was excellent - wholesome and healthy. Elaine provided us information on a few local restaurants for dinner, which had great... more

Elaine was such a wonderful hostess. From not knowing too much about the Mennonites, Elaine answered our questions and helped us to understand the difference between Mennonites and Amish. She also had great recommendations regarding where to go for an authentic Amish buggy ride and other sites in Lancaster. She is very organized and knowledgable about the area. And the... more

My family and I recently returned from our second trip to Jonde Lane Farm, was was actually our third attempted trip. Notice I said third attempted, because on one vacation they were completely booked. And there's good reason for that. Jonde Lane Farm is owened and run by John and Elaine Nissley, a Mennonite couple with several children, and a... more

We just returned from 5 days at the Jonde Lane Farm and it was fantastic! Just visiting the area was wonderful but to have such great accommodations on top of it made the trip the best we have had. We have 2 girls, 5 and 10 years old. Mr. and Mrs. Nissley are wonderful people and hosts. Each morning we... more

Last summer (July 2005), my husband, 9 year old daughter and I spent five days in PA Dutch Country, booking several different B&B's. All the way from Texas! We wanted a real farm experience for our daughter, but were a bit wary of Jonde Lane Farm. I wasn't sure from photos that it would be too great. I have to... more

My 7 year old son and I stayed at the farm during a recent vacation and I cannot recommend going there enough. It was extremely relaxing for me, as a parent, to swing on the back porch with a good book and take a nap in the afternoon while my son played in the backyard with the kittens. Their animals... more

Our family had a great time for 3 nights on this farm where our gracious host Elaine Nissley showered us with good old fashioned country hospitality! From the delicious and hearty homemade breakfasts (hot from the oven!) to the clean, crisp sheets and comfy beds to the detailed directions Elaine shared with us for sightseeing around Amish country, we decided... more

A wonderful place! Truly a refreshing step back in time. Great for kids. They can gather eggs, see sheep, goats, cows, pony, chickens and turkeys. A barn full of hay, and an old fashioned swing from at least a 200 year old tree. Great breakfast, very comfortable and clean. We are returning! more
