Everything about this house was exceptional! The house was immaculate, kudos to the housekeeper! The location was great, could easily walk to the shops and restaurants. Loved sitting on the back deck and relaxing both in the morning before a hectic day and again in the evening . Will definately stay there again!

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. The house was original to the Civil War and was decorated as such. There was plenty of space for just my husband and myself although there was another bedroom. I think it would have gotten dicey with 4 people sharing one bathroom but would have made it work. Great location right in the heart of Gettysburg. Had fun walking around town if not too exhausted after exploring the battlefields all day. Tessa was very responsive when I could not find the blender, she ran one right over 20 minutes later. Very comfortable in the house. Overall, great experience and would recommend to others.

I am a herd critic on property and care to the guests. Property was clean and everything was working. For the high extra fees a later checkout would be appropriate and should not be based on convenience of housekeepers schedule ability, but the guest in mind. I would stay here again as the house was very nice as a backup to my preferred place of stay.

We spent 4 nights at this property and it was perfect. The place is spacious and after a long day out and about it is great to have a place to stretch out and not be in a hotel room. Very easy to walk to many areas in Gettysburg and a short drive to other areas. We would stay here again for sure!

Great spot with all the amenities we could ask for. The place was spotlessly clean when we arrived, kitchen was well equipped, and the beds were comfortable. A five minute walk brought us to a great selection of restaurants and several historical markers. What more could you ask for! I was a bit worried as some other reviews made it sound like there was a lot of traffic noise. We really didn't notice that. You hear some traffic during the day but it really quieted down at night. This was a midway stop on our trip so we appreciated the chance to wash clothes and put our feet up. The Battlefield visitor center is a 2 minute drive away too! It was a treat to learn the history during the day and then stay in this historical house at night. If those walls could only talk!!

My cousin came to visit from Oakland, Calif. We decided to visit Gettysburg, as it had been quite a while since he, and we had been to the battlefield and war memorial. A great visit-- the house was extremely convenient, immaculate, and nicely appointed. Everything was exactly as represented.

This is my second stay at this property. Unfortunately, I got sick for a good part of my vacation. I am so glad we chose this home, as even though I was sick, I felt comfortable and warm. The owner is considerate and the property is easily accessible. Great place to spend your time in Gettysburg.

The home was very clean and comfortable. The air conditioning was a welcome respite from the 90+ degree days spent on the battle fields and around town. Walking distance to many attractions and downtown Gettysburg. We enjoyed staying in a historical home close to so much. Thanks for the stay!

The property was spacious and well appointed. It was also in a great location in Gettysburg - near to the battleground and the downtown area. Should I ever be in the area again, I will definitely rent this home. The only thing I would say to improve it is to give a history of the house - when it was built, who built it, how many lived there, etc. It was of such historical significance, I wanted to know more about it.

Historic Home in Superb Location

Historic Home in Superb Location

Sparkling clean historic home with gorgeous woodwork and floors. Lots of room. Small, sweet back deck and yard. The 2 beds were very comfortable. Perfect location for anything you want to do in Gettysburg. The apartment is sparsely stocked so bring extra paper goods if you are staying more than a couple days. The front parlor upholstered living room furniture is showing its age. There was a broken sleeper sofa in the second parlor we were counting on, so had to improvise. Owner was responsive and tried to assist. Overall, we felt fortunate to be staying in the heart of old Gettysburg, and are glad owners make homes like this available to visitors.

Pros and Cons

Pros and Cons

Starting with the cons: 1) Half roll of toilet paper, with only one additional roll in the building. Very poor quality TP, almost have to go out of your way to find a toilet paper this useless. 2) No shower soaps/ shampoos. 2 dishwasher packets. Hand soap smelled like hospital. 3) Half roll of paper towels. 4) Pillows provided are pretty uncomfortable. 5) No little extras that most places in the price range normally come with. (coffee, tea, cooking oil etc) *****PROS***** 1)The location is very convenient to anything you would want to do in Gettysburg. 2)The place is impeccably clean and tidy. 3)The apartment is a first floor apartment which is great for older folks who have trouble doing more than 6 stairs.(there is also a separate upstairs unit, I am not talking about that unit in this review) 4) The apartment is spacious, and very cozy. 5) Fully functional kitchen with tea pot, coffee makers, oven stove, full size fridge with freezer, microwave and toaster. OK, so this place is right on the edge of being truly great. It would be a disservice for me not to point out its inexpensive fixes that would catapult it to that level. ***I would without hesitation stay here again, and most likely will in the future*** I DO recommend it. Bring real TP, Paper towels, shampoo body soap, and unless you like hospital scent hand soap, well bring your own nicer smelling hand soap.

We were able to walk much of the time we were in Gettysburg and leave the car behind (much welcome after 5-12hr drives in the week prior to arriving in Gettysburg!) Great ice cream shops nearby! The house/apartment was perfect for our group of 4. Due to unexpected family issues we had to change our travel dates and the owner was very accommodating/helpful in making that happen. The only negative was one chair with soiled/torn upholstery. Certainly not enough of an issue to spoil the stay! We’d definitely return should we find ourselves in Gettysburg again.
