Experienced our first B&B experience at the Boxwood Inn...and it was a good one. Betsy, the Inn keeper made us feel right at home and explained what we could expect. She was a wellspring of information about the local area and that made our weekend special. Betsy makes a wonderful breakfast and the Inn's Black Lab, Lula, makes all the... More

What a great time my husband and I had at the Boxwood Inn this weekend. Upon our arrival, we met Betsy, what an amazing woman to chat with. She knew about all the good restaurants in the area and lots of things to do. She has an awesome personality with a sense of humor. Her husband Greg is very nice... More

The Boxwood Inn is a quaint B&B in a beautiful area run by an outstanding hostess, Betsy. The themed rooms are cute and cozy and the grounds of the inn are fantastic. Betsy is a great help in finding things to do in the area as well as recommending places to eat and visit. We had the place to ourselves... More

We spent 3 nights here as part of a self organised fly-drive. After 2 nights in a busy Philadelphia this was just the job. Quiet, peaceful, very comfortable, ideally located for the sight seeing we planned to do locally. Betsy & Greg were great hosts. Betsy gave us lots of help and her recommendations on where to eat out shouldn't... More

We spent 2 days at the Boxwood Inn and loved it! Betsy is a gracious host - very welcoming, very helpful with directions, and makes great breakfasts! The inn and grounds are beautiful - our room was very comfortable. We would definitely return for another stay.

Excellent hosts, fabulous food, beautiful inn! Our hosts, Betsy and Greg, were extremely cordial as well as helpful during our recent stay and made our mini vacation a delight! We would definitely return to The Boxwood Inn for another stay as its central location was an added bonus!

We just spent two days at the Boxwood Inn and loved every minute of our time there, especially the sun room. Betsy is fantastic. When we arrived she dropped everything to talk with us about what to do and where to eat. Her recommendations made our trip. We would never have spent as much time in Litiz without her suggesting...

My wife and I spent two nights at the Boxwood Inn in late July. The inn is beautiful and the room was perfect - spotlessly clean, modern bathroom, and the decorations were perfectly matched to the Lancaster area. Betsy was a wonderful host offering advice on dining options and activities for each day. She suggested some local farmers' markets that... More

Let's begin in saying that my husband and I have stayed at over 40 B&B's in our travels and we both agree that Betsy is the most accommodating hostess that we have met. She gladly prepared a delicious breakfast for us an hour early and that same day made breakfast sandwiches to go for another couple who had to be... More
