Great stay.
Out stay was cute and in a very convenient location. It really made it nice being able to leave the car parked at the apartment and walk to a lot of downtown locations. Rob was quick to respond to any questions I had before the stay.

Cozy and homey
We really enjoyed our stay in Gettsyburg. It was nice to come back from the battlefields to a clean comfy cozy apartment. We were delighted to see a dove hatch two eggs and watch her mother her new chicks every time we left for the day and come back in the evening.

Convenient, comfortable and clean.
What else is there? Walkable to many local stores and restaurants. Everything you would need was in the house, if I had been inclined to cook. Comfy bed and comfy couch. Nice linens and we had a great view of the Halloween parade from the front stoop. Would stay again.

Amazing place to stay!
My family of 5 absolutely loved staying at this historic home. The location is perfect! Couldn’t have found a better place to stay. We walked to the museums and shops and enjoyed our stay very much! We would definitely stay here again if we are in the area. We were on the 2nd floor so the stairs were a bit steep but we did well with them. We were able to park in the back off the main street. There are 4 ice cream places within walking distance! 😉 The owners are super sweet and kind! Definitely stay at their property! Loved Gettysburg! A must see area! So much history!

Marvelous apartment, great location!
We were looking for a place to stay in Gettysburg near the National Military Park and the battlefields. This apartment was perfect! Located only about a block from the edge of one of the battlefields and in Gettysburg's historic downtown, we could walk on the roads/trails of the battlefield as well as the streets of the town. Restaurants (and excellent ice cream) were nearby and it was less than a 5 minute drive to the park. The apartment is in a historic building that survived the battle back in 1863, and was just right for our small group. Everything was clean and comfortable, and provided all we needed in the kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms. The hosts were attentive and not intrusive, very responsive and helpful, and great to talk with! We hope to stay there again when we return to Gettysburg!

Very Nice Accommodations
It's pretty cool to stay in a historic house right in Gettysburg, and the modern touches inside made it very comfortable. For 3 adults and 2 teens, it served us well, and was clean and tidy. It's a great location, a few blocks north to the center of town, a few blocks to the National Cemetery. I went there 3 times, to honor my fallen Minnesota heroes who gave all. One area that was lacking relative to other VRBOs I've stayed at was the kitchen. The cookware was minimal, and spices virtually non-existent. There was a pair of shakers for salt and pepper, but both had pepper. When I'm on vacation I love to grill dinner for the family, and the gas grill was pretty weak tea. On check in I asked the host if there was charcoal, and he quickly ran and got a new bag, which was very helpful. I'd stay here again in a heart beat.

Perfect & Great Hosts
Great location & apartment to stay at in downtown Gettysburg! Wonderful hosts! We stayed the end of April 2023 for three nights. Ron is a super nice host, a local who knows all about the town's history and where to go, what to see and easily accessible. The second floor apartment we stayed at was spacious, plenty of natural light, was clean, fully furnished, comfortable beds. The kitchen has a full size stove, oven and refrigerator. We parked our vehicle in the apartment's designated spot behind the house and didn't need to drive anywhere until we left. The apartment is centrally located to be able to walk anywhere downtown for tours, restaurants, shops, walking Cemetery Hill battlefield and getting the best ice cream at Mr. G's. Our dog had a great time too, it was a major plus bringing him on vacation. After a day of sightseeing, we could sit on the back deck to relax. This will be our only place to stay for future Gettysburg trips and will recommend it to family and friends.

Perfect location
The house is an original from the 1860's and was located in the center or town on the same route President Lincoln rode past to give the Gettysburg address. The building next to it still has a cannon ball stuck in the bricks. They have a nice deck out back that is perfect to relax with a glass of wine, The house was clean and fairly spaceous with 2 seperate bedrooms, a living room and a kitchen. Was comfortable for the three of us. Rod met us and helped us lug our bags in. The arrangements went very smooth. If you want a battlefield tour, call the visitor center in advance and ask for a private guide who will drive your car around the city and battlefield. The cost is only $65 per car and we got an excellent experience at our own pace with all of our questions answered.

Perfectly located historical stay
My son and I stayed here for a campus visit to Gettysburg College. The property was comfortable and close to everything--the college as well as the battlefield site, which we also toured. The owners were responsive and got back to us whenever we needed something. If my son goes to Gettysburg, we would love to stay here again!

Location Location and Hospitality
A group of four friends just returned from an extended Gettysburg weekend, including a stay at 322 Baltimore. The apartment was everything as advertised plus more. Rooms were ample and provided plenty of character (especially for a building that survived the Battle of Gettysburg in 1863). Bedrooms were sizable and beds were comfortable. Full kitchen was an added bonus - though we didn't utilize it fully. Living room was comfortable. This was a second story apartment - so navigating narrow steps was required (no elevator). Main entrance and exit was in the rear of the building - but a narrow alley way to the right of the home, you gained access to Baltimore Ave. Parking was most convenient - off the alley way and safe from traffic/crowds. As for as location - you couldn't ask for better - within a block of ice cream and winery - within 4-5 blocks of Gettysburg business or the more touristy portion of Gettysburg. Both directions offered ample shops and restaurants. Rod, the owner, met us with a key (with a 20 minute notice) - and provided a quick tour. Very pleasant fellow - with strong roots to Gettysburg proper. I can't recommend staying here enough.
