Fabulous step back in time.

What a fantastic home to begin a trip to Gettysburg. Stepping into this home was like a step back to the 1800's. I highly recommend this place to all. Centrally located to everything. Within walking distance to attractions and restaurant's. We will definitely hope it is available the next time we go to Gettysburg.

Awesome Place!!

We were in Gettysburg for three days of history immersion. This location and the home's appointments were great for accomplishing our goals. Generally, we look for overnight locations that have two key features: good beds and a place to cook meals and companionably eat them. This home offered both on spades!! The beds were super comfy in rooms that were architecturally beauties. The kitchen and dining space offered all the needed utensils and flatware. This place is Downtown and also within walking distance of so many shops and the tour bus area.

Our host communication was phenomenal, to the point you could ask her about activities in the area during the stay, she was a wealth of information. The facility was immaculate and welcoming after a long day of touring the area. I really appreciated having a garage to park in as well! Would definitely book again.
