The Happy Hen Loft @ The Freckled Farmhouse

Extremely clean and excellently decorated farmhouse. Reasonably priced for the amount of people and location.

Owner was prompt to respond to our inquiries.

The house was very charming, with plenty of room if we had more guests with us. The eggs were delicious--definitely recommend getting some from Vaughn. My husband is 6'4" and bonked his head on a few things in this historic home, so definitely be aware of that if you're tall.

All in all, the place was perfect for what we needed: a gorgeous, dog friendly place to stay near Gettysburg, with a comfy bed, a couch to relax on, and a kitchen to cook in.

Our stay at The Happy Hen was lovely and Elizabeth is a great host! The property is right off of a highway, but you don't get a ton of traffic noise - at least we didn't. Still, Elizabeth has a white noise machine in each room to help if necessary - we didn't need ours. Each room had a portable heater, but the baseboards did a great job of keeping us toasty warm. Check-in was easy and although it would be nice to have more than one key, it didn't hinder our group at all. The Happy Hen is about 15 minutes out of Gettysburg and it's a true straight shot right into town. We were in town for Remembrance Weekend so it was nice to be able to get right into town. Our pups appreciated the package left for them with flea/tick spray, deodorizing wipes, and a few small blankets. The beds were comfortable and warm. The couches were comfortable as well although the main couch is showing some wear/tear. Doesn't change the function! The only thing that could be better is maybe having some more silverware; we found ourselves constantly washing forks. Overall it was a great trip and we would definitely stay at the Happy Hen again.

The location so close to town is great and owner was quick to respond to all messages. This was a cozy/clean home that we enjoyed our family vacation. Constructive feedback, we did have the breaker trip twice while using the microwave, which was located in the cellar on the front side of the house. And thankfully we weren't sleeping 8 guests, the high bed seemed to slump in the middle so would have been difficult for us to sleep in, we just picked another room. Overall would def recommend this house and hostess!

We had a great weekend stay very close to Gettysburg. House was clean and exactly what was listed on the site. Highly recommend. Thank you!
