What’s Happening next at Hartzell House —

Hello friends,

There are so many ways to experience the Laurel Highlands — trails to hike, shops to explore, places to stay — and we love that. But over and over, guests tell us that what stays with them most after their visit here is the time — the time spent connecting, lingering over meals, and feeling truly cared for.

So, in response to that, we’ve created a few special gatherings this fall and winter that offer just a little more of us. More conversation. More handmade food. More space to rest, connect, and just be.

Here’s what’s coming up — and we’d be so honored to share it with you.

 

WINE & DINE EXPERIENCE  SEPTEMBER 20

We’re bringing Three Hammers Winery right here to you for an evening that celebrates the shift from summer to fall — with good company, cozy comfort, and a beautifully prepared meal.

This is more than a dinner — it’s a full package experience that includes your room, wine pairings, and a four-course seasonal meal, all designed to slow you down and fill you up.

Package includes:
• One-night stay at Hartzell House
• Welcome bites and wine at check-in
• A four-course handcrafted dinner (think beef tenderloin, garlic mashed potatoes, seasonal greens, and dessert)
• Wine pairings curated by Three Hammers Winery
• Breakfast the next morning

The package rate includes all meals for two guests.
It’s a perfect night away — no planning, no stress, just come and enjoy.

THANKSGIVING DINNER NOVEMBER  27

If the idea of a peaceful, home-cooked Thanksgiving without the prep (or cleanup) sounds dreamy, we’d love to welcome you for a cozy holiday at Hartzell House. Come stay with us, eat well, and simply enjoy the season.

Your Thanksgiving stay includes:
• Early check in at 2 pm on 11/27
• Full Hartzell House breakfasts
• Optional add on Thanksgiving dinner with housemade touches

Whether you’re escaping the hustle or starting a new tradition, we’ll make sure it’s restful, warm, and full of good food and heart.

 

WREATH  & REMEMBRANCE DECEMBER 12-14

This gentle winter retreat is close to my heart. Designed for anyone carrying grief — whether recent or long held — it’s a weekend of soft connection, beautiful food, and meaningful creativity.

We’ll gather around the table, share meals, and create handmade evergreen wreaths infused with memory and love. You’re welcome to bring your own ribbons, ornaments, or items that help you honor someone dear.

Your stay includes:
• Two nights of comfort and care at Hartzell House
• Breakfast each morning
• Two evening meals made from scratch
• Wreath-making with materials for one wreath per guest
• An optional group prompt: “What has stayed evergreen in the midst of your loss?”

If you’re traveling solo, just give us a call — we’re happy to adjust the package for single occupancy.

Whether you’re craving a weekend getaway, a nourishing dinner, a peaceful holiday, or a retreat that touches the heart, we’ve created these offerings with you in mind — shaped by the stories and reflections so many of you have shared with us.

We hope you’ll find something that feels just right — and when you do, we’ll be here, ready to welcome you in.

 

With heart,
Melissa & Robert
