We loved the historic home and grounds, and convenience to the sites. We were enjoying the trivia cards and the very nice size dining table. The best part of our stay was our son-in-law finding his ancestor's memorial plaque among the monuments, & seeing his name there.

I loved this charming farmhouse. The kids had a wonderful time despite not having Internet. loved the yard. my husband went out on the boat. It was a little hard to row with all the algae, but he said it was good exercise. I would definitely stay here again.

Stay in Gettysburg

We loved the property and house. The homeowner was easy to contact with any concerns. I would have rated it 5 stars however most of the cookware was unusable. The Teflon cookware was extremely scratched up, which was so frustrating because we had intended on using the provided cookware for all our meals. The grill was also rusted over, we still attempted to use but it just wasn't ideal. The property is 5/5 and the house is a beautiful old farm house, if the cookware was usable it would have been a 5/5 stay.

Spring Break in Gettysburg

This old farm house was just as promised. Rustic but clean and comfortable. My teens enjoyed hanging by the pond or exploring the battlefield locations nearby. The house was a short drive to everything Gettysburg related. The host had notebooks available showing nearby restaurants and things to do. We had a great dinner at one of the restaurants we found in the book. Highly recommend this home for families interested in Gettysburg.

Gettysburg family trip

We gifted my father in law a trip to Gettysburg for his 80th birthday. And being a Huge civil war buff this house was the perfect place to stay. Right on the battlefields. A pond for fishing (which everyone loved) and a farm style house that was homey and quiet. It was a close enough drive to everywhere we needed to go but far enough away. The host was extremely responsive when I had questions prior to the visit. Everything was great and the house was perfect! If we ever come back, this is definitely where we want to stay! Thank you so much!!

Quick family weekend getaway!

Our family of seven stayed Fri-Sat in Sept 2024 and enjoyed this property and grounds. It's conveniently located just minutes from many attractions in Gettysburg, many dining options, retail options, grocery, etc.....but you wouldn't know it, it's beautifully peaceful! My kids (age 9-19) enjoyed paddling around the pond and fishing (no catches, but they had fun). The pond does have duck weed, but our ponds at home do as well and know how difficult it can be to treat and maintain. It didn't impact our stay at all. The screened covered porch was were we hung out after a busy day of tours and sightseeing. Great for playing the games they have at the house and quiet reading. We would recommend this property if you appreciate some space to stretch out and some quiet after a busy day taking in historic Gettysburg.

Beautiful country setting

We came for a short weekend getaway with our daughters. I worked nicely for a central location for everyone. The property had plenty of room and activities for all to choose from. We took daily walks to the neighboring battle fields. And when we were ready to head into Gettysburg it was a quick 6 minute trip. And many of the other attractions were also only 5 to 20 minutes away. Great place to stay if you like that little bit of privacy, and appreciate the charm of older homes.

Nice but...

The property has great potential. It is nice but it lacks the details to make it great. Things like washing the windows, exterminating the ants, and providing sufficient containers for the trash would greatly improve the experience! Also I would suggest that they add internet to the home... With all that said it is a wonderful home with a great location!
