Our host was helpful and lovely when I had to seek help figuring out how to work the heat system in the lower level! The property is amazing. My family and I and a few dear friends loved their stay and want to visit again sometime! The property, the views and the animals made for a very special stay! An indoor pool and a Hot Tub in February were such a treat!

This was a stay-cation for 14 guests. Communication with the host was excellent. Plenty of bath linens and pool towels. Kitchen had plenty of coffee supplies and spices. The indoor pool, hot tub, and pool table were highlights, but being able to interact with the rescue animals was awesome! The large dining room table was perfect to eat as a group and play games.

We had family to the Big House recently and we had a great time. While the kids loved the pool, game room and everyone enjoyed the hot tub, the friendly farm animals surrounding the house were clearly the hit. Beautiful views and nature all around.Excellent location equally close to Gettysburg attractions and the mountains nearby.We will be back!

My family travels every year to Gettysburg and it’s going to be difficult wanting to stay anywhere else! Perfect for large groups looking for a beautiful location that is comfortable and unique! Perfectly located to visit Gettysburg and all that it offers. My teen girls loved the entertainment room and spent a lot of their time playing games and singing karaoke. The hot tub and pool were great for evening swims and relaxation. Every animal we encountered was so friendly. We will definitely try to come back!

Everything fulfilled our needs for an enjoyable family get together vacation of 6 adults and 7 kids. Kitchen with everything and grill for eat in breakfast and dinners. All served at a roomy table for 13! Inside pool was perfect for hot sunny days and one rainy evening. Kids entertained with all the animals and game room. Hot tub was also a hit. Relaxing end of day sitting around the campfire. Proximity to Gettysburg was perfect for history experiences, eating out and the candy store. House was clean and adequately furnished. Elizabeth was a great host and enabled enjoyable family vacation. Thank you!
