The Gettysburg Retreat is a Pre-Civil War 2 story Gable front house. Built in 1853 it was originally owned by William Steinhour. Steinhour owned the house until 1859, then sold to Henry and Mary Zeigler in 1860, then repurchased by William Steinhour in 1864. It was later bought in 1868 by William Z. Little and then sold in 1872 to James Caldwell. The house was later passed down to Little's heir in 1873.
One thing interesting about the house, is in the first 2 blocks of West Middle Street. You will find several Civil War houses towards downtown Gettysburg, but as you reach The Gettysburg Retreat, the house beside it was the last house in town until you get to Seminary Ridge during the Civil War.
The land Gettysburg was founded on was originally owned by William Penn. Penn would later sell the land to town founder James Getty. The Gettysburg Retreat was the 127th lot of land allocated to Getty in the exchange.

Summary: The location is fantastic. Everything in town is within walking distance. We stayed for a week during Thanksgiving, then came back a few weeks later to stay during the Christmas holiday. While we were away Sandee decorated for Christmas which was wonderful. Comminication was easy and quick.

Summary: This is a beautifully historic home. Though it's on a busy corner with a traffic light, there is almost no traffic noise. The house is clean and well equipped with everything people would want on a vacation. The decor is spectacular. People can walk to many of the Gettysburg sites, and a grocery store is across the street.
