House was a perfect location not too far from Gettysburg but also in a quite small town. Close to everything we wanted to do and see. House has all the basic necesseties. Happy they allowed our pup. Would stay there again.
The property is well kept, clean and nicely decorated. It has all modern amenities but still maintains vibes of a cozy grandmother’s house. It is convenient to Gettysburg. The driveway is off of old route 30 and was a challenge to back out into. The hosts were very communicative and made check-in and check-out seamless.
This property was exactly what we needed for our weekend getaway - just enough room for the three of us & our dog - very short drive to everything we wanted to see, the home was clean and communication was smooth...highly recommend!

Great little house
House was great. Front door was difficult to maneuver. Instructions for the heat/air would have been helpful. But all in all it was a good experience.
We had a wonderful stay. The home was very clean and the furnishings were very comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped. Even thought it was on Old Rt 30, it was still very quiet and our dogs were able to feel safe and secure.
Close to everything we wanted to see, downtown gettysburg, the battlefield, & adams county winery.
We chose this location because is was close enough too town yet far enough away that we would be able to rest at night without the noise of bikes constantly! Very clean, a little on the smaller side, but it worked for ny family. My only real complaint is that there was not central air and we had to keep the bedroom window air conditioners on one specific setting. As that may be cool for some people, it wasn’t for us, especially being in the mid 90’s temp wise. I would stay here again!
Don was very kind and helpful any time I msgd him prior to our trip!
The location was very convenient for everything we wanted to do while in Gettysburg.

Good location for Gettysburg
Overall the property and host were great. Could have been cleaned a bit more but nothing was repulsive. Washer and dryer are in a basement accessed thru the outside. Thankful for a husband who doesn't mind doing laundry! The couch pull out is not comfy. The beds (sleep 4) were not terrible.
Very quiet, pretty neighborhood close to all the great things Gettysburg has to offer. The one small complaint is that we felt the washer and dryer were not very accessible as the bilco door they were behind had a lot of live spiders and webs covering the basement entry door and we had no way to clear them out. To also be fair, we did not want to bother the owners with that so that was our own choice as well.
My Father and I stayed here while we were visiting the the Gettysburg battlefield. The place was great with plenty of room for us. It was close to the battlefield and other things to do.
Would definitely stay here again.
Had a great time. Very clean and quiet neighborhood. Excellent location for visiting Gettysburg.

Nice vacation rental
We have stayed here before and had no problem
when deciding to return. The house is clean and comfortable. The only problem is the tub/shower, it is very
slick and needs to have tub mat and hand held bar for the tub/shower.
We enjoyed a very nice weekend in this spotless home 10 minutes away from Gettysburg. It is a cute and completely rebuilt home with all modern conveniences. A large screened porch is a nice bonus. We would be happy to stay here in the future!
Stayed for a quick trip to celebrate a family birthday. The house worked great for our family of 5. Very cozy! Sleeper sofa, two queen rooms, plenty of space. Window units were loud but was nice to have air flowing through the bedrooms. Tons of extra pillows, blankets, and linens. The screened in front porch was fantastic - great for morning coffee. Had space in the back and side yards for the kids to play around. Well stocked house - plates, cups, mugs, all the kitchen basics. Plenty of coffee pods - even hot cocoa! And it was really close to Gettysburg sightseeing and downtown. We would definitely stay here again!
