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.
