My wife and I arrive for a long weekend and were pleasantly when we arrived at the house. It was neat, clean, and perfect for two people. There were no noisy neighbors and although it is located on very busy Baltimore Street, pedestrian and vehicle noise wasn't an issue. Especially pleasing to us was the location! We were able to walk to the food and entertainment of downtown or to the shops and museums of the south end of town. If I could suggest one modest change. Replace the table and chairs in the bed/sitting room with a couple of comfortable chairs to sit and relax. Either way we will be booking this property again. Outstanding is all I can say!

Phenomenal location that cannot be beat! You're walking distance to every major shop/museum/attraction/restaurant on Baltimore Street or Lincoln Circle. But, by being at the center of action, you'll hear the traffic/pedestrians all night long. After a while though, it just becomes white noise. The historic building is very clean and well equipped. Comfortable beds. Cool rooms. Plenty of space for our family of three. Hosts were very responsive to any questions we had. We would 100% stay here again!

Very Historic
This was a great place to stay. Location is fantastic, within walking distance to everything. Apartment was very clean and organized. But you need to remember, this is a historic building, and on the main road. You WILL hear traffic all hours of the night especially trucks. So if you are a light sleeper, this is not for you. I would also suggest maybe some hooks or a place to put your clothes in the bathroom. Kitchen well stocked with pot, pans, dishes. Kuerig coffee maker, toaster and a regular coffee maker if you so choose.Would definitely stay again!

Clean and modern, amazing location
We thoroughly enjoyed our short weekend stay in Gettysburg in this rental. It was the perfect size and had everything we could’ve needed and more. I wanted to stay longer just so we could spend more time in the place! The location is the best- walkable to everything we wanted to do. We absolutely will stay here again!

Heart of Gettysburg - excellent location
The property is close to the town square, near many historic locations and convenient to restaurants and shops. It’s on the trolley route so any place that is a longer walk from downtown is reachable using that for transportation. The parking spots directly behind the historic building is easy to access.
