Cute and cozy. Screened front porch was the favorite spot of the whole house. Spent majority of my time out there with our 3 dachshunds while hubby did the battlefields thing. Next time around will definitely bring camping table and chairs for outdoor meals and star gazing. House is facing a main road however road noise wasn't bad; was able to keep windows open to enjoy the mountain air. Diner in town serves awesome breakfast! All in all had a nice stay. Hope to reserve again!

Great Stay & Excellent Value

We had a wonderful stay. The home was very clean and the furnishings were very comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped. Even thought it was on Old Rt 30, it was still very quiet and our dogs were able to feel safe and secure. Close to everything we wanted to see, downtown gettysburg, the battlefield, & adams county winery.

Nice vacation rental

We have stayed here before and had no problem when deciding to return. The house is clean and comfortable. The only problem is the tub/shower, it is very slick and needs to have tub mat and hand held bar for the tub/shower.

Weekend Stay

Stayed for a quick trip to celebrate a family birthday. The house worked great for our family of 5. Very cozy! Sleeper sofa, two queen rooms, plenty of space. Window units were loud but was nice to have air flowing through the bedrooms. Tons of extra pillows, blankets, and linens. The screened in front porch was fantastic - great for morning coffee. Had space in the back and side yards for the kids to play around. Well stocked house - plates, cups, mugs, all the kitchen basics. Plenty of coffee pods - even hot cocoa! And it was really close to Gettysburg sightseeing and downtown. We would definitely stay here again!

Perfect location! Far enough away from the busy hustle and bustle, but close enough (10 min) to take multiple trips into Gettysburg throughout each day. Love being able to drive past so much history on our way in! Owners were wonderful about allowing us to have our pets! Only surprise was no access to washer and dryer and no grill. I should have paid attention to the listing better! Didn't put a dent in our trip though! Home was extremely clean and very welcoming! We loved sitting on the porch in the cool mornings, and it was perfectly air-conditioned to escape the heat of the day. Absolutely perfect for our needs!

Cute and homey

Me and my friends stayed for the weekend to celebrate our friend getting married. This was an adorable place. There is a lot to do around the area, one of our event got rained out and we needed to find something else to do and it was not a problem at all.

Gettysburg trip

House was a perfect location not too far from Gettysburg but also in a quite small town. Close to everything we wanted to do and see. House has all the basic necesseties. Happy they allowed our pup. Would stay there again.

Very Nice House

The property is well kept, clean and nicely decorated. It has all modern amenities but still maintains vibes of a cozy grandmother’s house. It is convenient to Gettysburg. The driveway is off of old route 30 and was a challenge to back out into. The hosts were very communicative and made check-in and check-out seamless.

Bike week

We chose this location because is was close enough too town yet far enough away that we would be able to rest at night without the noise of bikes constantly! Very clean, a little on the smaller side, but it worked for ny family. My only real complaint is that there was not central air and we had to keep the bedroom window air conditioners on one specific setting. As that may be cool for some people, it wasn’t for us, especially being in the mid 90’s temp wise. I would stay here again! Don was very kind and helpful any time I msgd him prior to our trip!
