Amazing stay

We booked this one night stay at the end of our Kid-free trip and it didn’t disappoint. The owners were waiting for us, checked us and gave us a tour and history of the place. Room was amazing, location was right down town within walking distance of everything. Chocolate chip cookies were amazing. Breakfast was Devine. Can not say enough about this inn. We will definitely be back.

Innkeepers really were great. We had an enormous amount of issues traveling and checked in late. they left a note on the door for us, and were so relieved. Location was so nice to be by the downtown /historic district. We loved it ! if you can't do stairs, might want to let the innkeepers know. breakfast was amazing. We wish we could have stayed longer. We loved it!

The owners, Amy and Brian greeted us when we arrived and gave us a tour of the property and made sure we understood the door locks and breakfast time. We were spoiled with a delicious hot breakfast every morning; Chef Brian really knows his stuff! Amy helped us upstairs with our baggage, and gave us recommendations for lunch while we were in Gettysburg.

Great location, great stay!

The suite we stayed in was very nice. It was clean, spacious, and comfortable. The owners were very nice helpful. The inn is walkable to all the major shops and attractions in town. The included breakfast was excellent. Our only complaint was noise from the busy street (it was Bike Week), but this was no fault of the inn.
