    We were a bit cautious as we had never stayed at a bed and breakfast before. We loved it. It was welcoming and comfortable.

    We just returned from two days at the Gibson House. I am so glad that we stayed here instead of getting a hotel room. The location was perfect. We had our bicycles with us and biked around town, taking in some of the local character. We biked to Chocolate World, the Hershey Story, and dining. Tom, the owner, was an amazing host. Everything was clean and taken care of for us. A guest fridge came in handy for those left overs. Tom's breakfasts were incredible. We had blueberry french toast and broccoli quiche. Coffee was on early - the front porch the perfect place to enjoy a cup with a book before the rest of the world got going. We'd love to return!


    Another perfect stay

    This is the second time we stayed with Tom at The Gibson House and we continue to be amazed by the hospitality, cleanliness and comfort provided to us. Tom is the perfect host...never imposing yet always right there for any assistance necessary. The Inn is spotless, clean and charming, and provides a welcoming warmth from the first time you step on the curb until you say your last "Good-Byes", or more likely, your "See you again real soon"'s! Thank you again, Tom and Don, for another memorable visit and...See you again real soon! Steve and Loretta
