Want a stay that's private and relaxing, but that is also an experience of its own? Whimsy in the Woods is the place. Filled w/hand-painted furniture & whimsical art, our property has something for everyone!
Mins from Annville & 20 to Hersheypark, you're surrounded by woods but w/the convenience of a cute town mins away (Annville).
Our four private acres feature a hot tub; pond/relaxing water fall feature; spacious screened porch, deer(!), fire pit; arcade; and lots of artistic motivation.
The space
We created Whimsy to be more than just a place to lay your head while you’re in the area, but rather a unique and memorable experience unto itself. We work hard to give each guest a one-of-a-kind stay, and get so much enjoyment when we succeed.
Please let our guests' 125+ 5-star reviews guide you!

Guest access
Guests have private access to the entire cabin, the back patio and hot tub, front deck, screened-in porch, kids' playhouse, and the property's four acres.
There is a workshop and garage on the property that is locked to guests, as well as one supply/cleaning closet. The un-locked utility room is only to be entered if necessary.
Other things to note
While kids of all ages are welcome in our cabin, please know that the property is not small child or baby proofed. The stairs are steep, and the loft is not safeguarded for little kids. Also, there are some heavy sculptures and artwork that could potentially hurt a child if knocked over. The hot tub can also pose a danger, especially if left uncovered and unattended.
If you have small children who will be staying with you, please supervise them closely. We want everybody's stay to be lovely and safe!
