There is a calm serenity at Carter Run. You may wish to curl up with a book in front of a warn fire in the living room or simply relax in a rocking chair on the side porch. Whatever your delight, you can be certain that it will not be interrupted by the noise of television or telephones.

A delicious-nutritious complimentary breakfast is served at the leisure of the guests.

The McKennons reside in the house next door, giving the guests freedom to relax and move at their own pace, and yet be available to help plan sightseeing tours.

Business persons will find the Inn most appealing, as they are able to set up their "office away from the office" without interruption.

The Inn is filled with period antiques. We are listed in the Lancaster County Heritage Register.
