Fall Scene at Mt. Gretna Lake
Mt. Gretna, home of many events, is included in numerous categories. Exemplary hiking starts here. It is famous for its mountain lake and beach.

Specialized shopping and dining are found in this village. The Gretna Tabernacle, along with a litany of festivals including the Mt. Gretna Art Show make Gretna very special. Gretna theatre brings Broadway professional productions to a unique theatre under the forest canopy.  The community is built on the side of one of our mountains, and large American Four-Square homes, most decorated in Arts & Crafts/Mission abound.  The homes feature enormous porches, are outfitted with fine rugs and art, and most seem to cling to one another as they stand up to the mountain.  One of our favorite places for a drive or a walk.  Twisty, windy streets, some too narrow for automobiles.  The Chautauqua Movement is alive and well in Mt. Gretna as evidenced by the Hall of Philosophy.
