Elizabethtown has been noted for its idyllic location, dating as far back as the early 1700's, when ambitious settlers were drawn to the area because of its rolling, fertile grounds which were perfect for farming and long, clear streams that were ideal for fishing and water-powered industrial mills. The community's original claim to fame was a tiny trading post, opened in 1703 by Thomas Harris, and then purchased in 1753 by Barnabas Hughes, who renamed it the Bear Tavern and mapped out a small town, naming it in honor of his wife, Elizabeth.

While the area has changed dramatically over the last three centuries, it has still managed to retain its rural charm and hometown community atmosphere. The spirit of working together is still evident among the townspeople, remarkable even in this generation, and the hospitality you'll find from neighboring shopkeepers, restaurateurs and service providers is a refreshing change from city life. Two important landmarks, Elizabethtown College and the M&M/Mars candy factory, give the community both a college town and company town flavor. And the diversity of cultural attractions, social organizations and hometown services make Elizabethtown a great place to live, work and shop.

For your added convenience, the extensive entertainment and recreational attractions of Hershey are only 15 minutes away…the cosmopolitan amenities of state capitol, Harrisburg, are only 20 minutes away…and the great shopping and fascinating sites of Lancaster are but a 25 minute drive from Elizabethtown.

The beauty of living in Elizabethtown in general, and at Peach Alley Court in particular, is that you can enjoy the best of all worlds: rural charm and cosmopolitan convenience. Come experience living where life is a Peach!
