Amazing and Quiet Place

Absolutely the BEST vacation I've EVER had! It was quiet, relaxing, and nearby town center where all the fun stuff was at! Host was amazing! The room was a side addition to their house that is separated from the rest of their home. Excellent communication, clean upon arrival, and overall outstanding hosts! 100/10, would stay again if I return to Gettysburg!

Very Enjoyable!

We had a great time in Gettysburg. It was the first time my girlfriend has ever been there and she had a wonderful experience. The rental was very clean and comfortable. It was well equipped with any necessities that we may have needed. We also enjoyed the outdoor space at nighttime to listen to music and look at the sky which was lined with many stars. We would definitely recommend this space to anyone who may be interested in exploring the Gettysburg area.

Quite location during bike week

We had no idea when we booked our holiday that bike week was the same weekend. Our 1 bedroom suite was a nice getaway from all the traffic and noise. Devin was very accommodating when we showed up early and left work to let us in. He was also mailed several electronic items that we left behind. Highly recommend! Thanks Devin!

Gettysburg For Two

Loved the location, close to town and park, but with a country feeling thanks to the huge field in back.Very well-organized, lots of documentation, small but excellent library of books on Gettysburg/Civil War. Nice big,new TV. The place is very small, and has its quirks: odd layout (closet not in bedroom), tiny kitchenette with dim lighting, lots of sharp edges (barked our shins on bedframe), no shampoo or conditioner. For one or two people who don’t plan on doing a lot of cooking, however, this is a very clean and very quiet base for exploring the battlefields.

Great Gettysburg Visit

I had a fantastic trip that was made even more enjoyable by staying here. The countryside was not only beautiful, but very quiet and peaceful. Because the location is removed from the lights of a town and city, I was able to see the stars at night. The accommodations were great and the kitchenette allowed me to save quite a bit of money on food. Restaurants are located nearby and it does not take long to get around Gettysburg to find one. Additionally, the bed was comfortable which allowed for a great night of sleep. For those that have a deep seated interest in the Gettysburg Campaign, the apartment is located close to where the opening shot was fired on July 1, 1863 and only a short jaunt from McPherson's Ridge and Oak Hill. The McKinney's are great hosts and I would return here again, and I highly recommend it to others.

We met the owner our first night there. Our little apartment was quiet, clean and private. We enjoyed the fireplace on the crisp chilly mornings and in the evenings. Everything was clean and convenient. The apartment is convenient to Gettysburg and the nearby airport was great to watch helicopters come and go. We were able to watch the colors change in the surrounding forests.

We visited the Gettysburg National Park which was open even though our timing was during a government shutdown, due to this park being operated privately. We did the self-guided tour early on a Sunday morning and it was great. We were there in October and had no need to use the fireplace, but did utilize the a/c a little.
