About this property

Historic Gettysburg Farmhouse

Welcome to our historical Civil War Farmhouse. The Stone home was built in 1789. With some of the original wood floors and beams. At the time of the Battle of Gettysburg (July 1863) the property 7 miles southwest of Gettysburg, had been a working farm for over 75 years. It was remodeled 15 years ago and became a cozy family home. Where children grew and memories were created. While keeping its historic character, also contains modern conveniences (updated kitchen and baths, central heating and air conditioning etc.) We’re located in a quiet residential area, away from the hustle and bustle of town life. Only about 10 mins from historic downtown Gettysburg.

We offer 3 bedrooms (upstairs, 1 Full. 2 Queen) and 1 ½ bathrooms. Fully equipped kitchen, dining area, Living room, a TV with streaming channels and Wi-Fi. All bedrooms are located on the 2nd and 3rd floor. Due to this being a historic home, ceilings and doorways are low. The floors creak and slant. The home may not be functional for people with certain physical mobility issues.

It is our goal to provide each of our guest with a wonderful stay. If at any point during your stay, you need something or feel we have not met your needs, please contact us immediately so we may rectify it.

Excellent farmhouse, great location

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful, historic Gettysburg farmhouse! After a full day it was great to retire at this cozy, spacious place. It is tucked away in a quiet part of Gettysburg but allows for a quick drive to any part of the battlefield, downtown or Hanover, PA nearby.

Memorial Day weekend family getaway

We had a wonderful time staying here with our boys. Great location, house is beautiful and historic. All the owner's attention to detail made our stay super nice. I would highly recommend this house to stay in. Close to all the Gettysburg sites, but not in all the hustle of the town.:)

2nd Stay… Just as great as the first!

This was our 2nd stay at this location. The historic home is perfect. The location is convenient to travel to the battlefield or into town. The owners are wonderful and answer all communication promptly. If heading to Gettysburg I would always choose to stay at this home.

Perfect Place for a Family Gathering

The house was the perfect place for our family to gather. The house was nicely appointed, very clean, and had a really welcoming feeling from the moment you stepped in. If the weather was nicer, we would have loved to have used the fire pit. Would highly recommend this spot to those traveling to Gettysburg.

Historic Happiness

We absolutely loved this cute, historic farmhouse. It had all the amenities you would want and some history to boot. Super clean as well! It was also close to all the sites we wanted to tour and we were so happy to have tried Brother's Pizza. Great food and lots of choices and very close. If we are ever back up to this area we would definitely stay here again. Also the host was amazing and actually met us at the place to make sure we had everything we needed. This is a must stay if you are in the area!

Perfect Getaway

The farmhouse more than lived up to my expectations. It has the old farmhouse charm while also providing you with modern day amenities. It was a wonderful place to come back to each day after seeing the sites in Gettysburg. The owners checked in with us every so often to make sure everything was to our liking and to see if there was anything they could do for us. My wife and I will likely be coming back here again sometime.

What a Gem!

This home was so charming... Lovingly maintained, perfectly decorated, stunning grounds, thoughtful amenities. When asked how they wanted to spend our last night in Gettysburg, our children chose to return to Hartlaub House to enjoy a cozy dinner, a campfire, and Civil War cornhole- they LOVED staying here. Blessed with perfect weather for our visit, coffee on the porch was a dream and the short drive into town was scenic and convenient. The hosts were excellent- knowledgeable, friendly and accessible. We are already trying to find an excuse to visit again!

Gettysburg Get Away

This was by far the best VRBO we have ever stayed in. It was incredibly well stocked with all the supplies we might need, many of which travelers forget (ziplocks, tinfoil, etc.) The yard games were perfect afternoon entertainment for our kids (7,9,14), and the yard space beautiful and relaxing. The beds were comfortable, and the space was relaxing and beautiful. A perfect quiet space to recover from a day of activity. We love the historic charm and modern amenities, and would love to return if ever the opportunity comes. Thank you to our hosts for making our stay so memorable.

Gettysburg Getaway

This property is lovely. We enjoyed the modern amenities coupled with this historic charm. Kevin was so prompt and courteous with every communication and request. Sadly we did not encounter any ghosts although the house is quite old. By staying out of town, we discovered a new part of the park to the northwest where JEB Stuart among others rallied. Thank you Hartlaubs!

Amazing historical getaway!

Being from California, we couldn’t believe the breathtaking scenery! So green and plush and full of wildlife. The house was stunning! Couldn’t believe we were actually staying in a home from the civil war era. The house was cozy, clean, relaxing and all the amenities provided were just amazing! The owners were so easy to communicate with and so friendly. Sitting out back or out front in the evenings was so cool hearing and seeing all the wildlife, it was surreal. We would absolutely stay here again and recommend this rental property to anyone wondering if this is a good place to stay. The answer is yes, you won’t be disappointed!

Great experience - so beautiful and relaxing!

Booked this as a getaway for my parents. Everything was amazing! It reminded them of childhood memories, everything was tastefully decorated with Civil War décor and interesting reads, it was immaculate, all the nice amenities set up for them was so thoughtful and convenient. Used the fire pit outside, the pond across the street was a pretty view in the morning even saw a few fisherman (unusually/perfectly warm weekend for October!), convenient drive to Gettysburg, great recommendations for local sports from the owners who were very responsive. This home completed their whole Gettysburg experience. Highly recommended, would definitely return! Tom & Joan

Nice

The property was amazing! It was very clean and the historical charm we were looking for staying inna civil wat home. It is close to all of the attraction but far away enough for peace and quiet. At night at the fire pit we all heard phantom cannons and muskets going off. The only area of opportunity, is the owners need to invest in new beds. The beds were very hard and uncomfortable. Everyone in our party did not sleep well at all. Over all, it was a great spot.off. It was epic!

Historical Beauty and Charm in Gettysburg

This amazing property exceeded our family's expectations during our time in Gettysburg. It truly is beautiful inside and out. From the moment we stepped inside the home we felt as if we had taken a step back in time, while at the same time having an abundance of modern conveniences. The home is immaculately taken care of and clean. We spent 4 nights there and never ran out of clean linens, towels, or other extra items provided by the hosts. The home is spacious, which was nice for our family of five to be able to spread out a bit after a day touring the battlefield and town. Communication was always answered promptly and the hosts were beyond willing to make suggestions for dinner, etc. We plan on visiting Gettysburg again in the near future and without a doubt look forward to staying in this pre-Civil War treasure again.
