Summary: We used the house as a home base as we were in town for a wedding. The house was clean. It was easy to get into. It is very spacious. Paul and Lisa were very accommodating and quick to address a minor issue. We intend to return when we can spend more around Gettysburg. We would definitely recommend!

Summary: LOCATION: We had fantastic weather during our stay, which made walking to shops and restaurants doable and pleasant. We spent only evenings and mornings here. It's nice not having to drive into Gettysburg and have to try to park with all the traffic. Even though it's close traffic is less here. It's uphill so when you're tired after a busy day just know you'll be walking up the slight grade to return. KITCHEN / PROVISIONS: Bring tissues, foil, and plastic wrap because none are provided. However, fresh eggs were in the fridge and fresh roasted coffee is provided as well. BEDROOMS: There is one very good sized room and three small. We took one of the smaller and the bedside lamp didn't want to stay on. Our mattress wasn't comfortable for us. It seems to have a low spot in the center which caused back pain for us. The couple with the big bedroom said theirs was great. The couple in the smallest room said their mattress was uncomfortable too. No one slept in the small bed in the fourth bedroom. GATHERINGS: There is a wonderful, private backyard and picnic table. The front porch is very nice as well - great spot for morning coffee. It seemed like ghost walks went by pretty regularly at night. A negative is the lack of enough comfortable seating in the living room. There is really just the couch facing the TV. AMENITIES: The WI-FI didn't work, we turned off wi-fi on our phones and used only cellular. The TV in the back bedroom also would not connect.

Summary: The house is very old. The kitchen has been updated. There was plenty of space and 4 bedrooms with nice furnishings. The porch was a nice place to sit and have a drink, there is a lot of traffic though. Two bathrooms, however one is downstairs off the dining room and small. I had an eerie feeling the first 2 nights and could not sleep. After leaving I looked the house up online and found that it may be haunted by up to 16 ghosts.
