This place is a hidden gem! It is so close to all of the Gettysburg battlefields. My family and I absolutely loved the cabin/cottage feels. It was clean and homie. Loved walking along the creek/crick. It was so beautiful surrounded by nature. Very peaceful and quiet.

The property is cute and enchanting. Tucked back into the woods along the beautiful Marsh Creek, there is the cottage surrounded by nature. The outdoor patio and screened in porch were our favorite spots to hang out and watch the wildlife on the creek.

Love the scenic creek location. Old trees, babbling water, we even saw mallard ducks. Many birds flying about. We spotted a pair of does in the woods. The cabin is wonderfully rustic while also being convenient. Range, fridge, microwave so you can cook from fresh or reheat what you didn't finish at the restaurant. A toaster/toaster oven would be a plus. The pots and pans work. Stainless steel, which withstands new cooks better, would be welcome. The kitchen island is perfect with bar stools to eat there or eat at the table in the corner. The living room is comfy and welcoming. Even better is the enclosed porch with plush rocker and recliner and 2 huge picture windows overlooking the creek. Exit the enclosed porch to the screened porch screened in on 2 sides and with plenty of seating. The larger bedroom is sunny and has a ceiling fan. Huge closet in both bedrooms. The smaller bedroom is darker because it shares a wall with the screened in porch. Be careful with that window facing the porch - it won't stay up. The beds are super comfortable. The bathroom is roomy, except for the shower stall. Brand new shower enclosure that needs a hand held shower head for maximum comfort. A washer and dryer right around the corner from the kitchen. The outdoor lighting is so well designed and attractive. Terrace with brand new gas grill. Lower outdoor level at creekside with seating and fire pit AND horseshoe pit. Plenty of parking. Gracious hosts. Go. You'll love it here.

we had four trackers meeting in gettysburg. this cottage was perfect for us. it was quiet and peaceful. it is right along the creek. i would have walked in the creek however it rained both days we were there. we loved this cottage. there were so many places we could sit and visit with each other. the careened in porch was perfect to enjoy the outside and be out of the rain. the living room was comfy for us to watch a dvd together. we had friends come over to enjoy a meal with us. they loved it too!!! it was so nice to be so close to Aspire venue and yet in the woods and away from road noise. when our group is 4, we will definitely stay here again.
