The Inn & Spa at Intercourse Village is more than an elegant retreat. Intercourse is a place of History, beauty, serenity and an interlude of unique opportunities and delightful preludes of what Lancaster County has to offer. The countryside abounds with culture, history, shopping, golf, railroads, amusement parks, and more. Start right here in Intercourse as you wander through the streets alongside the Amish to the Kitchen Kettle Village with over 30 shops of handmade quilts, bubbling fudge pots, handcrafted furniture, hand-tooled leather and more. Or try the Intercourse Village Merchants where you can enjoy over 100 Shops, Restaurants, Galleries & interesting places located throughout our village. Get twisted at the Intercourse Pretzel Factory as you twist your own pretzels or be swept away in a horse and buggy as you ride through the village. Experience the area’s history at the Amish Museum or at The Amish Farm and House. No matter what the season discover old world living and 21st century fun here in Intercourse or a few miles down the road in any direction - the opportunities are endless.

To the south of us is the historic Village of Strasburg where trains are as common as the car. Here you can discover history at the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania or take a ride on an authentic train of the early 19th century at the Strasburg Railroad. Or you might consider a walk through the Amazing Maize Maze... a cornucopia of adventure in a Lancaster County cornfield that is fun for all ages. Adventure abounds at Dutch Wonderland, the area's premier amusement park or you can take flight in a gentle hot air balloon ride over the PA Dutch country-side with the US Hot Air Balloon team.

If it's shopping you are looking for, you don't have to look far. Just a few miles east is Rockvale Square Outlet Mall with hundreds of outlet stores. And, you can find antiques and specialty shops at every bend in the road. The region abounds in shops of old world furniture and other unique finds like quality Amish and Pennsylvania Dutch craftsmanship found in each handmade piece of furniture. If cultural arts are what you desire, there are theatres, galleries and museums to cultivate and enhance your visit. Consider taking in a show at one of many theatres like the American Music Theatre or the Sights and Sounds Theatre. Drive to the south and east to discover Longwood Gardens, Chadds Ford, the Brandywine River Museum, and various golf courses. Antique shops, scenic parks and gardens are all part of the rich cultural heritage waiting to be explored in southeastern Pennsylvania. And, just a short ride away is an historical landmark, Valley Forge Historical Park, the nation's first National Park.
