About this property

The School House of Gettysburg, rural setting close to main attractions

Our School House is located just 6 miles from the square in Gettysburg, and even less to Devils Den, Big Round top, the Visitors Center and the Outlet Shoppes of Gettysburg. Just 3 miles from Rt. 15 makes getting here very simple. The school house was once an Amish school house but has been renovated to include all the comforts of home. Completely surrounded by farm land, you can be sure to enjoy peaceful and quiet evenings.

Staying at the School House made my first trip to Gettysburg extra special! Perfect location in the pretty countryside not far from town and historical sites. Clean, quaint, comfy, and quiet - nice place to relax after a day of exploring. Communication with host was easy & helpful. Hope to stay here again when I return.

The Little Schoolhouse was a perfect place to stay, and to come back to at the end of the day. The house is lovely, the amenities were adequate for us. The location is only a few miles of easy driving (2-5 miles) to the Gettysburg Military National Park, literally driving along the side of the battlefield on Taneytown Rd. We couldn't have asked for a better location. Although there was a full kitchen, we were on vacation, so no cooking, but we did have coffee in the A.M. Close enough to any restaurants you might wish to eat at in Gettysburg. Only downside is the lack of convenient public parking.

Perfect getaway

Amish school house was beautifully done and very clean. The only things that would make it better…….a charcoal grill and a fire pit. Would definitely recommend and stay here again.

We could not be more happy with our stay at this property. It's close to all the attractions, but feels like a complete escape. They also did an incredible job renovating the interior.

I have visited Gettysburg many times in my life however I have never rented a VRBO. All I can say is for this being my first experience it certainly was grand! Amazing transformation of an old school house to a one bedroom dwelling. Super clean and the hosts are outstanding. Excellent communication and tremendous accommodation all the way around. Thank you for my best stay ever in Gettysburg! I will be back! On a side note , if you like to cook the kitchen is nicely equipped and huge! I used it my entire stay.
Priceless sunsets!
The full moon from the back deck was awesome!

Nice place to stay close to the battlefield, etc.

The schoolhouse was a clean and lovely spot. We found everything as described, and we enjoyed our stay there. It's just right for a small group to be close to the battlefield, museum, etc. We would stay here again!

Everything about this was great. The host was very responsive to questions. The house was located in a fairly secluded area, yet was close to everything and very cozy. We would definitely stay here again if ever back in the area!

Wonderful rental

The schoolhouse was perfect for our stay in Gettysburg. It was close enough to town that we could easily get where we needed to be but far enough out to have peace and quiet in the evenings. We had a minor issue the first day, but Katie and Ryan were quick to respond and resolve it. Plus, they checked on us later in the day to make sure everything was still okay. To me, having that kind of host makes their 5 star rating even more earned.

Perfect Stay in Gettysburg

First time visiting Gettysburg with my son, home from law school and a history buff. The schoolhouse was an authentic touch to this historic visit. Property owners were very welcoming; check in was easy, and the house was comfortable, immaculate and every amenity thought of. Close to the National Park and Battlefields, and the town of Gettysburg. Just perfect.
