Perfect stay!
We spent 4 nights at this property and it was perfect. The place is spacious and after a long day out and about it is great to have a place to stretch out and not be in a hotel room. Very easy to walk to many areas in Gettysburg and a short drive to other areas. We would stay here again for sure!

Fantastic spot close to historic center
Great spot with all the amenities we could ask for. The place was spotlessly clean when we arrived, kitchen was well equipped, and the beds were comfortable. A five minute walk brought us to a great selection of restaurants and several historical markers. What more could you ask for! I was a bit worried as some other reviews made it sound like there was a lot of traffic noise. We really didn't notice that. You hear some traffic during the day but it really quieted down at night. This was a midway stop on our trip so we appreciated the chance to wash clothes and put our feet up. The Battlefield visitor center is a 2 minute drive away too! It was a treat to learn the history during the day and then stay in this historical house at night. If those walls could only talk!!

Perfect place for the three of us
My cousin came to visit from Oakland, Calif. We decided to visit Gettysburg, as it had been quite a while since he, and we had been to the battlefield and war memorial. A great visit-- the house was extremely convenient, immaculate, and nicely appointed. Everything was exactly as represented.

Comfy, clean and close to everything
This is my second stay at this property. Unfortunately, I got sick for a good part of my vacation. I am so glad we chose this home, as even though I was sick, I felt comfortable and warm. The owner is considerate and the property is easily accessible. Great place to spend your time in Gettysburg.

Celebrated my husband's birthday with friends. Had a great time, location is great with many restaurants/pubs/stores within short walking distance. Loved hiking the many trails around the battlefield. Would love to visit again in the fall.

We were very pleasantly surprised that the house was even nicer in person than on the listing! We walked to everything, enjoyed morning coffee on the deck and enjoyed catching up in the cozy living room. Great house, will definitely book again!!
