Gelinas Manor


  • Inn Details

    Located on Front Street by the Lake in Boiling Springs is this circa 1869 Victorian Home, which is one of the first homes in Boiling Springs. The village is laced with history dating back to the 1700's. The iron industry was the main reason for its growth. The Carlisle Iron Works, one of the earliest blast furnaces in Pennsylvania was located near the springs. The remains of the original blast furnace still stands in the public park. The village has many handsome homes, some fronting on the lake. In 1984, Boiling Springs was placed on the National Register of Historic Places. The area is alive with activities. The lake and the crystal clear Yellow Breeches creek are well stocked and are considered some of the best trout fishing areas in the country. The nearby Yellow Breeches Fly Shop handles fishing gear, locally tied flys, clothing and gifts as well as dispensing experienced tips for the novice or practiced fisherman. The famous Allenberry Resort and Playhouse"on the Yellow Breeches" is just minutes away for an evening of fine dining and entertainment. Boiling Springs is located within one-half hour's drive to Gettysburg, one hour's drive to Hershey, and approximately 11/2 hours from the Pennsylvania Dutch Country in Lancaster County. It is truly a beautiful spot for a pleasant visit. The ducks are famous for nesting in local yards and marching their hatch to the lake in the Spring. Caution "Duck Crossing" signs are posted throughout the village. Visit us and enjoy the quiet historic village by the lake.

    The Gelinas Manor is like a staying in Museum. There are so many things antiques and interesting objects located in every room. The breakfast served every morning is fit for a king. The food is just perfect. The service & hospitilaty is wonderful. The whole are around the manor has so much history as well as the manor itself. I would recommend this B&B as a place for any occasion.

    We found Lee and Kitty to be very friendly and helpful hosts. Taking several of their suggestions added to our stay----walking around the "boiling" spring and visiting the Museum in Carlisle. Being retired we have the time to leisurely discover any area new to us. Breakfasts were tasty in addition to having great presentation. We look forward to returning to visit the Village Artisans Gallery and have dinner at the Tavern.
