Wonderful place to stay, especially if you like ducks, turkeys, chickens and bunnies! Their greater of a furry kind, Izzy was a frequent vositor throughout our stay. The cabin was comfortable and we had want for nothing. Will definitely stay there anytime we are in the area!
As others stated: very quiet and clean. 10 minutes from the center of Gettysburg. We arrived at night and accidentally drove into some of the neighbors’ driveways, but we finally got it. Feeding the roaming bunnies was delightful.
The host was great I accidentally booked the wrong cottage and they worked with me to get it straight. The cottage was super cute and many extras some chips, wine, and coffee was a nice touch and much enjoyed. You can tellThe owner takes pride in their rental. The animals at the farm greeted us and it was so much fun. Great experience and thank you hosts
The place is exactly as listed. The owners are close, but give you privacy. They give you a bag of cornflakes to feed the bunnies and the chickens and turkeys. We were traveling a lot so we were not at the cabin a whole lot, but the time that we were there was spent peacefully recovering from the day.
Everything was as advertised. The greeting party of animals was delightful. Todd and Chris were very responsive to our inquiries. We will definitely stay again.
Very nice little cottage in a beautiful woodsy country setting. Several friendly free range chickens, turkeys and bunnies. The hosts has a bag of cornflakes to feed them and they love it. Had turkeys at the door at 7 this mirning adking for their treat. Close to several nearby places of interest. The host's are wonderful. Had a wagon to pull suitcase etc. down path. Highly recommend.
This was our second time visiting the property and we enjoyed every moment we were there! I could have spent hours outside on the porch watching the birds and listening to the sound of nature. The property owners are wonderful, they left us to our privacy but also talked with us about the their flock when we had questions. We shall return!
We loved the serenity and charm of the cottage and property. Chris & Todd were friendly and helpful. We appreciated the many thoughtful extra amenities, and we especially enjoyed all of the very friendly free range turkeys, chickens, and bunnies!
We were lucky to have found this cozy cottage for our one night stay. We were very entertained by all the animals that welcomed us. The hospitality could not have been better. Chris and Todd certainly went above and beyond. We hope to visit again, hopefully for a longer stay.
We had a very nice weekend in Gettysburg. Our stay at the Cushing Cottage was very pleasant and relaxing. What a treat to find many different snacks and some drinks available in the fridge! We very much enjoyed watching and interacting with the chickens, turkeys, rabbits, etc. What a unique experience! The hosts are very friendly and you should not hesitate to book this cottage.
This was our second time hosted by Chris and Todd at Brierfield. As always we appreciated their attention to detail and thoughtfulness. All of the amazing animal friends are a bonus - Debbie, Izze, and the whole bunch. We enjoyed the peace and pace of the cottage which always allows us the time to reconnect. We already can't wait to return.
