Took my 3 grandchildren for 3 days and my wife and I stayed another 3 at Ole mink farm. Very peaceful and relaxing and close to one of our favorite places to go.Gettysburg. the staff is very friendly and the cookies were great. They provided the firewood and this was a first for us. We do plan to go back. I would recommend this resort to anyone who asks. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

We had a lovely time at the Ole Mink. Everyone was so kind and nice. It was quiet and safe. The fact they are family owned shows through in everything they do! We enjoyed the pool, pickleball, corn hole, the playground, the game room and they even had an ice cream truck come through one evening. We would highly recommend! When we asked my daughter where she wanted to go on vacation next she said HERE! lol. Very nice place!

Ole Mink Farm was EXACTLY what our family needed to celebrate our son's 14th birthday.

We went fishing and hiking at multiple nearby locations, but we could have easily stayed on the grounds the entire time - there was that much to do! (And it was so quiet and peaceful we felt like we were the only ones there!)

We especially loved their pool, the ping pong table and pickelball courts, and the option of the game room - although we didnt use it because we were too busy having fun outside!

Thank you Ole Mink Farm for helping us create a lifelong memory for our family. We can't wait to come visit again!!

My dog and I love spending time at Ole Mink. It's so peaceful and the cabins are really nice and always clean and comfortable. We love being able to take walks on the property and nearby as well. There are lots of great state and national parks just a short distance away. It's often hard to believe we're only an hour (ish) from the city.
