Why We Do a Holiday Hershey Lodge Staycation Every Year

My family was given complimentary stay at The Hershey Lodge through the Hershey Sweet Insiders 2025 There are a lot of places you can go for a quick holiday getaway, but year after year, we keep choosing Hershey Lodge. It’s become one of our favorite family traditions, and by the end of the year the kids start asking, “When are we going back to the Lodge?” Here’s exactly why this staycation works so well for us and how we stretch a simple one night stay into two full days of fun. 1.
