We stayed at the Lightner Farmhouse Bed and Breakfast with 4 other couples for our annual spiritual retreat! Steve and Teresa were kind, welcoming, accommodating, helpful hosts. The restaurants they recommended were all wonderful - The Gettysburger, Olivia’s and The Dobbin House Tavern. We appreciated the use of the downstairs gathering room to meet as a group throughout our stay! The breakfasts were delicious! We really enjoyed Steve sharing the history of the house and Gettysburg in general.

Best stay EVER
Weather was great meanwhile we thought we were going to be dealing with rain the whole weekend. When you check in they go over the history of the lightener farm and the use of the home back during the civil war. Booked the Lincoln room which turned out to be the best room. The room had its own door to enter from the outside with a porch with several rocking chairs that looks over the left side of the property. Breakfast hands down was the best I’ve ever had on all of my stays in Gettysburgs over the past 7 yrs. The room was beyond comfortable and the shower was great with amazing water pressure. I will definitely be rebooking for all of my future trips to Gettysburg.

Excellent stay
Great stay! Farmhouse is beautiful. Felt welcomed from the moment we arrived. The daily breakfast was delicious! Be sure to check out the basement area. It really brings back the original charm of the home.
If I had anything bad to say, the shower in our room was quite slippery. It was ok for us, but might be more of a risk for someone who doesn’t have great balance. Not enough to reduce my rating, just something to note.

The free breakfast on both days we stayed was excellent. The owners knew the history of the Inn and of the battles. We really enjoyed our stay.

The house is historic and beautiful with tastefully decorated rooms. The location is a short driving distance from downtown and the battlefield. The delicious breakfast is served from 8 to 9 am, getting you of to a great start. The real difference is the hosts-- Steve and Teresa--who really care about the guest experience. They gave us very helpful information about museums, activities as well as places to eat. We really enjoyed the guest speaker for a fascinating discussion on battlefield statues. We are looking forward to returning to Lightner Farmhouse.

A wonderful location, gracious and informative hosts (Steve sat at breakast each day to talk with their guests-this stimulated discuussions among their guests and he provided excellent information about Gettysburg and the Civil War), and the breakfasts were good with outstanding baked goods and fruit options (the first day fruit was an amazing baked spiral sliced apple with nuts in the core). We enjoyed the country setting (it somehow felt more connected to the rural setting of the battlefield than in town might have provided). The historic Civil War house and accomodations were wonderful (the home, when new, served as a hospital for Union soldiers during the battle). The town is nice w/plenty of dining options.
