Red Cardinal Bed and Breakfast

This place is a hidden GEM. Bill and Joanne are the two nicest, down to earth people you will ever meet. Thank you for making our 8th wedding anniversary so special with the banner and cake. It was very kind and very appreciative of you to think of us. Thank you for all your wonderful suggestions and lovely conversations. We enjoyed our stay! The room was impeccable, and food was out of this world, fresh and with hugh portions. We are planning to stay again next fall during the Apple Festival! We will definitely recommend this hidden gem to all our family and friends! Thanks again, Craig&Mary

Great bed & breakfast. Joanne and Bill are a delightful couple. Very clean, excellent breakfast and great location. I will stay again for sure! Great location for fly fishing or Carlyle car show. Very comfortable in a beautiful setting. Scott Davidson 5.8.2024

Billy and Joanne are kind, caring people who are living their best lives. They put all their love into this B&B and into their attention to their guests. I stay here when I am in town for work and have found it the perfect place to rest after long shifts. Joanne makes delicious breakfasts with many locally-sourced materials, including vegetables from her own garden and eggs from their chickens. The property is gorgeous and includes beautiful sunset views over farmland, and there are so many trails close by, including the AT. My drive to UPMC Carlisle from their place is only 11 minutes and much preferred to the lodging options there. If you want to do some yoga while you are in town, their neighbor has a home studio and accepts drop-ins. Boiling Springs is just a few minutes away, which is my favorite little town in this area and includes a great lake with walking trails and a cozy cafe. Joanne and Billy have also been so generous with their knowledge of the area and recommending good hiking spots and other things to do on my days off. I've stayed in other places in the area, but this is my favorite. It feels immediately like a home away from home :)

Here for a 2 night stay while here visiting the 2022 National Mopar car show. BiLL and Joanne are wonderful hosts...comfy ,clean room, porch to sit on, enjoyed the beauty of her flowers. Yummy, homemade breakfasts with items from her garden or local farmers. Attention to detail is awesome. Highly recommend!! Hope to be back in future. Cindy and Jay

Joanne and Bill make their wonderful home so welcoming. They make you feel like you are the only guest they have ever had. This is the third time I have been with them but it certainly will not be the last. Oh yeah...and don't skip breakfast!!

To say this is the best bed and breakfast I have ever stayed at is an understatement. This is my second stay here within the last year. The room is very comfortable and spacious. The breakfast is amazing. I stayed for 4 days and had something new and unique each day. Fresh cookies and hot tea in the evening helped bring my long days to a close. The best part of this stay are the hosts. They treat you like family and legitimately care about you. I cannot wait for my next trip to visit. I might just have to create a reason to return!
