Great stay!
Stayed in this home for a quick family trip with my son, husband, parents and pup. The house was clean and comfortable, we had a great time! The beds were way more comfortable than we expected! My son really loved meeting Dixie and Dolly (the goats) and being able to feed them. He’s already asking when we can go back!

A Different Kind of Stay
What a wonderful experience!! We were celebrating my granddaughter's 7th birthday at Hershey Park and we wanted to stay somewhere close to the park. We're so glad we came across the Polka Dot Roost. Plenty of room for our family of 5 + 2 dogs. We're from the city so staying at an actual farm with goats, chickens and a corn field was an experience that we'll never forget. The bedrooms had different animal themes and the beds were comfortable. The house was clean, the grounds were well maintained and the proximity to the park and restaurants was very convenient. The kitchen had everything you needed to cook a meal but we opted to eat out at Funcks and Babe's Grillhouse which were both great. My grandchildren loved feeding the goats and watching the chickens. They're already asking if we can come back next year. Thank you for offering such a lovely property. We hope to visit again in the future.

Accomodating and peaceful
My family and I stayed at the Polka Dot Roost for two nights during a family trip to Hershey Park. We arrived to find a beautiful little farm in the PA countryside that had plenty of genuine antique charm but still had the modern amenities to keep the kids happy. Thankfully, the kids were excited to play one of the many board game options we found on the first night. The second day was my wife's favorite because she was able to spend some time with the goats as if it were our own petting zoo. We had a wonderful time and would absolutely rent from Patrick and Kristy again

Gorgeous and peaceful getaway
We had an amazing time in a great location. We spent a week waking up to gorgeous sunrises, overlooking a neighboring farm with cows sheep and goats, and had the fortune to be in a farmhouse cottage with goats and chickens right on the property. The owners thought of everything- even left bags of food for the sweet goats!

Country breeze
Close to lots of things like Hershey and just a short drive to Turkey Hill, but also far from enough away to have a country feel.

Farmhouse @ Polka Dot Goat Farm
We really appreciated the special touches. On our arrival there was a lighted Christmas tree for us to place the gifts to each other that we had brought with us. It is very conveniently located to Hershey Park and its fun locations such as Chocolate World, the Chocolatier Restaurant & and Sweet Lights drive-thru holiday light show. We also traveled to Kozar's Xmas Village and that was quite an experience. We also enjoyed hanging out at the firepit outside and loved that our hosts had made it quite easy to light the fire & provided firewood & firestarters. It was fun to feed the 2 goats.

Family time unplugged on the countryside
My girls where screens down,& feeding goats within 5 min of our arrival. They ran thru fields & climbed thru a tire obstacles course. We adventured to "Hershey", /"Indian Echo Caverns "/ & even zip lined thru "Refreshing Mountains". It was family time unplugged. Toasting marshmallows & climbing trees. Even staged our XMAS card

Wonderful time at PolkaDot Roost
While visiting the Hershey area attractions, we had a great time staying at the PolkaDot Roost. It was great to have such a peaceful retreat to return to at the end of each day, and we enjoyed the quiet mornings before we headed out as well. We had fun feeding the goats and enjoyed our stay on the farm. The property looks like it was recently completely renovated and had all the amenities and conveniences one could ask for.
