Find Your Belsnickel Tour

1st weekend of December

Start the season with a tour of Lancaster County Bed and Breakfast Inns decorated for Christmas. While you're enjoy signature cookies and the unique decor, be on the lookout for the Belsnickel. We like to think of the Belsnickel as a fur-clad, crotchety, old guy German guy who brings gifts. Find these hidden friends at each Inn and be entered to win great giveaways. Check with your Innkeeper for tickets $25/per person.

Dinner With an Amish Family

Available most Friday or Saturdays by appointment

One of the reasons people come to Lancaster County from all over the world is their interest in the Amish people and their lifestyle. Known for their plain dress, hearty foods, beautiful farms and simple living, visitors love learning more about them. One of the best ways you can do that is to dine with an Amish family in their own kitchen, tour their farm, and talk with your Amish hostess. When you stay at Olde Square Inn we can arrange an Amish dinner for you for an experience you'll never forget.
