We spent two nights here recently and were astounded by how lovely the grounds were. They have a really lovely patio area that looks over a well manicured lawn and garden area. It's a wonderful place to drink a cup of coffee and read the paper. We also very much enjoyed the town of Akron, and its close neighbor, Ephrata.... More

Perfect spot for a quiet weekend-- our room was immaculate. The living room and other shared areas were a little dated, but it did not take away from the overall experience. Breakfast was nice-- coffee was excellent. The grounds were lovely -- looked like a nice spot to sit on the patio if it were warmer!

Spent two nights at the Boxwood Inn in the "Carriage House" with our Golden Retriever while we visited nearby Amish country. The inn keeper, Betsy, was extremely helpful, provided us with excellent recommendations, made fantastic breakfasts and had a great sense of humor. Our only regret was that we could not stay longer.

We recently stayed at the Boxwood Inn for Valentine's Day weekend. We stayed in the Hunt Room, which was incredible, and we HIGHLY recommend it. It may be slightly more pricey than the other rooms, but it is DEFINITELY worth the price! If you're looking for the perfect balance between the privacy and luxury of a fancy hotel suite, and...

My husband and I went to Boxwood Inn for a relaxing weekend and that is exactly what we got. The bed and breakfast is very comfortable with great bedrooms, as well as many comfortable common areas. The views around the grounds are amazing and it is tucked between a Mennonite church and farm which is fun! Betsy (the innkeeper) was... More

We recently stayed in the Carrage house. We stayed here many years ago in the same room. We enjoyed being there again and the new owners (from when we stayed before) are a delight. The breakfast - coffe was very good too. There is a charm about this place. The only thing we felt is that it is in need... More

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. Your observations are appreciated and the repairs are almost completed. Because the Carriage House is our most popular room we have a hard time scheduling maintenance without Inconveniencing our guests. Had you come a week later you would have found the majority of the items repaired and repainted. The mold on the... More

We absolutely loved our time at Boxwood Inn Bed and Breakfast. Betty, the lady of the house, was so fantastic. She took the time to sit and talk with us, laugh with us, she seemed to genuinly care. Betty cooks the best breakfast in Lancaster County every morning. We never went hung. The rooms where spotless and homely. The house... More

. Betsy and Greg were outstanding hosts who could'nt do more for us. From the best breakfasts to the outstanding suggestions about the area, we went from passing thru to being sorry we couldn't stay longer than the three nights we did. The Inn is situated off the beaten trail but still in the midst of many Dutch Country attractions.... More
