A gorgeous waterfront log cabin on a lovely river

Brenda's cabin on the river was the perfect place for us to get away from it all. It was a great home base for exploring Gettysburg, but also a beautiful peaceful getaway - we enjoyed ending our days with a glass of wine on the river-front deck, listening to the quiet and the birds. The cabin had all the modern conveniences to keep us perfectly comfortable, yet all the historic charm of an authentic log cabin. Many thanks to Brenda for being a fantastic hostess - she was very responsive and attended to every detail!

Trout fishing

We had a blast fishing out back and Caledonia. The place was cozy and easy to find. The trash collection was confusing so maybe rewrite it on instruction page. I loved my king bed and the 2 kids loved the bunk beds.

Charming Log Cabin

Maybe closer to 4.5 stars rating. We stayed at this property for 4 nights. We spent most of our time at Gettysburg, which was only a 20 min. drive or so away. We also hiked at Cunningham Falls State Park in Maryland which was also less than a half hour away. And we made a surprise stop at the Utz factory store 20 mins. away. So the location was good for our activities. The property is on a big creek/small river and we saw some ducks, but didn't catch any fish. It was too cold to really enjoy any of the outdoor amenities, Spring is a tricky time of year. The kitchen had everything we needed and we were surprised there were two full bathrooms as the house isn't that large, so that was nice. We were comfortable during our stay. Brenda was very available to answer a couple of questions we had.

This is a GREAT place to stay!

My wife, teenaged step-son, his friend, and I stayed at the cabin for 3 nights. This is a very well kept building stocked with just about everything you need for and enjoyable trip. We were visiti Gettysburg (about 25 minutes away) and could not have found a better place to stay.

Lovely cabin for getaway

The cabin is beautiful, with updated kitchen and baths that don’t diminish its antique charm. We just loved the place. My husband had fun catching 7 fish in just 45 minutes. The host was always responsive. Nice getaway.

Gettysburg visits and outdoor activities

The house was as advertised. Gettysburg was a short 25 minutes away for our several visits ( two tours of the battle fields and two ghost tours) we did some fishing and played a round of golf all very close to the property. Brenda was very friendly and responsive to our questions Thank you very much for allowing us to enjoy our visit. Would highly recommend if looking for a family friendly visit to the Gettysburg area.

Perfect Place to Spend the Week!

The cabin is beautiful and friendly, and has everything you need to enjoy your stay. Unfortunately we happened to be there during Hurricane Deb so we didn't get to paddle the creek, but enjoyed our stay nonetheless. The owner is easy to communicate with and friendly. We were able to enjoy sightseeing in Gettysburg and then could come back to a relaxing , comfy home after.

Relaxing stay near Gettysburg

Had a nice time during our 2nd stay at this home. Very convenient to Gettysburg with great restaurants and shopping along with touring the battlefield. German Christmas Haus in New Oxford also worth a visit. Only complaint was that the weather was horrible!

Amazing mini-vacation

Had a wonderful stay in Brenda’s cabin. We wanted for nothing. Close to all amenities and very peaceful. Gettysburg museum is close by and also went to Union Mills, Maryland for a Civil War reenactment. Would definitely recommend!

Perfect Vacation Getaway

We could not have found a more perfect place to stay on our trip to Pennsylvania! Everything you could need was available at the cabin and very clean. Location was great and close to everything we wanted to do, plus the creek in the back was so peaceful. We enjoyed some kayaking one afternoon, as well as the firepit. Brenda was the perfect host! We hope to visit again one day and have already highly recommended to friends! You won't be disappointed with this cabin!

Great place to stay

We just returned from spending a week here. The cabin was incredibly comfortable, the neighborhood was quiet, and everything was in close proximity to many historical sites. We very much enjoyed kayaking in Conewaga Creek behind the cabin and spending peaceful evenings on the deck. It was a great place for a vacation.
