Spent one night here, will go back for a couple of days' stay. Peaceful, quiet, and the grounds are well kept. Breakfast was good, and they made sure to check on any food allergies . Rooms were big and comfortable.

We eloped to Cameron Estate Inn in Mount Joy this week and it was the best decision we could have made. Cathi was so helpful every step of the way. The grounds are beautiful and the conservatory took my breath away the first time I saw it. We had our ceremony, and were able to use the grounds for pictures for a few hours. We were then given an AMAZING multiple course dinner with champagne, a cake, soup, salad, and entree. The staff was attentive although that wasn't necessary because everything we could need was left out for us, like water, coffee, tea, and a communal fridge. The rooms are very historic and the place is secluded, so it was perfect to get away with my husband for a few days. Thank you to everyone for making our day perfect.

Never get married here! We got married in May of 2024 and while the venue is absolutely gorgeous and the planning was amazing, they really failed to deliver the dream wedding we planned on the day of. There was constant confusion, mistakes, and rude staff as other reviews stated. We felt very rushed, you have to clean out the spaces in between each event (getting ready, cocktail hour, reception, etc) and while we knew that, we were not aware of the stress this would cause. I (bride) was not able to brush my hair out before the ceremony because all of my stuff was already packed so we literally had to use a fork that was in the suite, my veil was on wrong because we didn't have the proper hair tools to be able to secure it. My family kept running around trying to make sure things were being packed away and orderly for later in the night instead of enjoying the day.
They rushed my ceremony entrance so I didn't really get the grand entrance we practiced. There was miscommunication with our coordinator and she ended up removing my in laws from the ceremony processional. They didn't serve the lobster tails which despite countless documents being submitted they were still forgotten. The cake was supposed to be saved and set aside but we have no idea what the kitchen staff did with it. The bar closed at 8:00 per our contract but we were never told it was nearing 8:00pm and to do a last call so the bride and groom didn't get a drink. The bartender looked unkept and was rude. When I asked her to lower the temp in the ballroom she huffed and rolled her eyes. If you don't want a gigantic tip jar to be placed out on the premium open bar, make sure you tell the venue before hand. This is apparently standard practice even though the couple was taking care of everything, my guests ended up tipping also.
The rooms were disgusting and the ceiling between the cocktail hour and ballroom leaked all night long. The conservatory was either being cleaned or not available for us after the ceremony for photos so we lost a lot of requested shots and video content. (NOTE: This will need to be edited to include that the conservatory was available to you for ½ hour after the ceremony per your contract) ** the note is from the Knot because I had to edit my review to make it more favorable for the venue despite them not holding up their end of the contract.
Working with them to correct the issues was the worst part and the reason for me leaving the review. They were deplorable in their reply to us and if you look on google reviews - you will see how this seems to be common and the replies from ownership to the couples is subpar. They do not take the time to make improvements and once you have paid your balance, they do not care much more.
We are in the process of receiving a refund. They are reimbursing our family for their room conditions as well as us for the night we paid for our room to stay for the rehearsal dinner. They are reimbursing us for the lobster that was not served as well.
Unfortunately, no monetary amount could ever really make things right. Our complaints weren't about the money to begin with but about our dream wedding being pretty much destroyed. Thankfully I set up all the decor the evening before so that went off without a single issue.
When looking at venues and reading the reviews I said well not everyone is happy so there will be some bad ones. I had no idea that I should have listened because everything other couples had issue with, so did we. It is a gorgeous wedding venue and luckily we got some great photos but not at all what we were expecting. I just don't want anyone to experience the same things we did.

First I'd like to say... the staff was very friendly.
The grounds of the estate were beautiful. But all the good things end with that.
Our room had more than 20 cobwebs. Some were disgustingly thick.
Our TV didn't work at all.
The dresser was broken. Pieces of the marble top were ready to fall off.
Bathroom was spacious. However, the shower drain didn't work well. Closet door had to be left open because the knob fell off completely. It was a bi-fold door.
We had found out we were the only guests our first night. When we went to the lobby to ask about help with TV, we found the staff had left and a sign was put up who to call in an emergency. So quite literally we were all alone!
Our first morning breakfast we had a choice of scrambled or fried eggs. Toast, Bacon, fruit cup or a waffle. No potatoes or hash browns.
2nd morning we had more breakfast choices. But not much more.
In our room we had extension cords strewn about. They had drilled something in the plaster walls & never bothered to clean up the dust.
This was my first stay at a B&B and I was so excited. What a huge let down. There are more negatives to list but I feel the ones I have already noted should be sufficient to make you think twice about Cameron.
The Cameo room was terrible!!! Please take note of my pictures I posted.

Can’t say enough about Cameron Estate Inn! Had our wedding there and everything was absolutely beyond what we had expected. Special thanks to Cathi, Jackie and Katrina (banquet manager) they made us feel right at home.

Room was spacious..bathroom small. Very noisy above us until 1 am. Breakfast was very minimal. We went back to our room and ate the cheese & crackers I jad brought for the evening before as an appetizer bc we could not eat at the restaurant. Staff was kind as a plus and grounds very pretty :)

Rooms are decorative and large. Feels like someone's home. Serving is friendly, and breakfast was delicious. Location is somewhat remote with attractions 20 to 30 minutes away.

Staff should have been dressed more appropriately for a wedding. Driveway entrance confusing. Chopped up buildings.

I can not say enough about Cameron Inn Estates. So beautiful and the service was above and beyond. We had our wedding 4/4/24. They make you feel as if you are home and are very accommodating. The food served at our reception dinner was delicious to say the least. Everything was perfect. And so much more than I ever expected! Thank you so much for everything!
