Where to stay in Lancaster area
 
My wife and I and our 2-1/2 year old daughter<BR>are looking for a nice place to stay in Late August. It needs to have an outdoor pool. Any suggestions??

hhh:<BR>I recently stayed at Best Western Eden Resort. I was impressed. We got a great deal that included breakfast at the hotel each morning and dinner at a choice of 4 different restaurants. I booked it directly with the hotel. <BR>717-569-6444. I'll pull up a thread I posted right after we went "Short trip report Lancaster County"<BR>Hope it helps!

Are you talking about Lancaster, California? I was just there and it's so hot and dry! Are you sure you want to be there in August?? It's not a place I'd want to be during any month of the year.

Ditto Carol...the only place worse was Barstow! Jimmy

I think this thread is about Lancaster county,PA...

Why do you think that Jenna? ESP?

Jenna Jul 11th, 2002 08:42 AM

Either my fabulous ESP or the area code of 717 in Annie's response tipped me off about the locale being Pennsylvania. Not too tough, x.

Oh so both you and Annie have esp? hhh has never said where! Good try though!<BR><BR>Without a state it's all assumptions!

Susan Jul 11th, 2002 08:52 AM

Here we go again. I live in California so when I hear Lancaster...I automatically think of California. If the poster means PA, it's got to be a nicer place than Lancaster, CA! Guess it depends on which side of the Mississippi/Rockies etc. you're on as to which pops into mind! Susan

x Jul 11th, 2002 08:59 AM

Ok since hhh didn't come back to clarify I used the subject search using the state to filter the questions and this one came up under Pennsylvania. It'd be easier if poster would specify because, like Susan, I also live in CA and thought of Lancaster out in the desert.

Isn't this an Air Force Base?? Heard of it but never been there. Seems like there would be better places to visit with your daughter.

annie Jul 11th, 2002 09:24 AM

<BR>Seems we all have ESP!<BR>When I saw Lancaster, I immediately thought PA. Nice place to visit in the summer.<BR>I'll remember not to put Lancaster CA on my list of places to visit in August!<BR><BR>Sorry I upset you x.

Sam Jul 11th, 2002 09:27 AM

My wife just informed me that this is where the space shuttles re-enter and land. I knew I'd heard of it before but couldn't remember how.

x Jul 11th, 2002 09:28 AM

Oh haha annie, like I was upset. What a laugh. It's about what's familiar to the reader. And true, do not put Lancaster Ca on your list or palmdale either. Bleech!

Edwards airforce base i located near Lancaster, CA. Edwards Air Force Base is, as a T-shirt says, 30 miles from water and 2 feet from Hell.

Lance Jul 11th, 2002 09:33 AM

Sam, not to show disrespect but I've lived in York for 30 years and I think I'd know if there were space shuttles landing. I think you'd better take your wife to a doctor immediately!!

Candee Jul 11th, 2002 09:36 AM

LOL,LOL,LOL...hilarious!<BR>I think only hhh can clear this up!<BR>Candee

xxx Jul 11th, 2002 09:47 AM

I think "hhh" is really "sam's wife"..it's an alias!

x Jul 11th, 2002 09:51 AM

York is also in Penn. See how bad this has gotten? Now some people are thinking that Lancaster PA is the home of Edwards Airforce base!! Hey it's in Lancaster CA. hhh is interested in Lancaster PA. No space shuttle landings there!

TJM Jul 11th, 2002 10:14 AM

hhh has created a monster. Please hurry back to take us out of our misery. If it is CA, he should be taking his little daughter to Disneyland not out in the desert. I think that is near where they found the little VanDam girl!! TJM
