Connected to the Lebanon Valley
Beyond Myerstown, you’ll find the richness of the Lebanon Valley just waiting to be explored. Downtown Lebanon, only 8 miles away, showcases historic architecture, unique dining options, coffee shops, and the ever-popular Lebanon Farmers Market, open Thursday through Saturday. Surrounding towns like Annville, Mt. Gretna, and Jonestown each add their own flavor — from arts and culture to breweries, farm markets, and boutique shopping. The area’s diverse heritage, often tied to Pennsylvania Dutch Country, is celebrated alongside a broader mix of cultures and traditions that make the valley feel both rooted and vibrant.
A Central Pennsylvania Hub

Shaded picnic areas and pavilions make it easy to gather with friends, family, and neighbors, while quiet paths and open spaces provide a chance to simply relax outdoors.
Just 15 minutes from the property, the Middle Creek Wildlife Management Area offers a true immersion into nature.
