Great weekend stay in Gettysburg

Great Family Stay in Gettysburg

We came to stay for a family girls history trip. The apartment fit us comfortably. Nice kitchen, bathroom & bedroom. Plenty of towels & kitchen gear. It was a great spot too- close to everything plus a parking spot out back! We liked the patio in the evening it was very relaxing! Owner Rod brought us a box fan to keep us extra cool in the 95 + heat even with air units! Check in and out was a breeze! Great experience-

Exactly as advertised

I booked for a sports tournament and the stay was a great location in downtown Gettysburg. We frequently walked to restaurants and stores downtown (a few blocks). Rod was very welcoming and communicative before and during the check in process. He gave a tour and small history lesson on the property and was available if we had questions. Space has multiple air condition units to keep it cool in the summer. Perfect for 2 or Family of 4.

Cozy and homey

We really enjoyed our stay in Gettsyburg. It was nice to come back from the battlefields to a clean comfy cozy apartment. We were delighted to see a dove hatch two eggs and watch her mother her new chicks every time we left for the day and come back in the evening.

Convenient, comfortable and clean.

What else is there? Walkable to many local stores and restaurants. Everything you would need was in the house, if I had been inclined to cook. Comfy bed and comfy couch. Nice linens and we had a great view of the Halloween parade from the front stoop. Would stay again.

Historic feel and close to the south battlefield.

My family and I enjoyed our stay and the property owner was very nice and communicative. The location was excellent with easy walk to stores, restaurants, and the battlefield. My only negatives were the door locks are tricky, they are old and you have to wiggle them just right to work. The property was clean but not 5 star clean, there was some dirt behind the table in kitchen. The AC was also out but thankfully the property owner had window units and ceiling fans so it wasn’t a problem. We enjoyed the stay and we would stay there again.

Very Nice Accommodations

It's pretty cool to stay in a historic house right in Gettysburg, and the modern touches inside made it very comfortable. For 3 adults and 2 teens, it served us well, and was clean and tidy. It's a great location, a few blocks north to the center of town, a few blocks to the National Cemetery. I went there 3 times, to honor my fallen Minnesota heroes who gave all. One area that was lacking relative to other VRBOs I've stayed at was the kitchen. The cookware was minimal, and spices virtually non-existent. There was a pair of shakers for salt and pepper, but both had pepper. When I'm on vacation I love to grill dinner for the family, and the gas grill was pretty weak tea. On check in I asked the host if there was charcoal, and he quickly ran and got a new bag, which was very helpful. I'd stay here again in a heart beat.
