Photos and Description of the Gettysburg vacation farmhouse rental Farmhouse and Cottage - 5 Bedrooms + Convertible bed - 2.5 Baths - (Sleeps 10-12

We invite you to stay in our comfortably and tastefully decorated 1840 four-bedroom farmhouse and cozy country cottage with fireplace and loft nestled in the middle of 83 acres of rolling Pennsylvania countryside. The Pennsylvania farmhouse is a simple log frame structure with white German siding with two front doors, typical architecture for the mid-1800's. The cottage has a large central stone fireplace (currently not functional) and was used as a smokehouse and summer kitchen in the late 19th & early 20th centuries. Situated in beautiful Adams County, we are located approximately three miles from the historic colonial town of East Berlin, PA (population: 1,400), founded by Pennsylvania Germans in 1764 and placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985. The property has a beautiful in-ground pool, Pennsylvania bank barn, 3-car garage, lovely views, and privacy and is an excellent base for relaxation & exploration of nearby Gettysburg, Lancaster's PA Dutch Country.

Truly A Home Away From Home!

Lesa09 Yarnell,AZ
Review Submitted: September 13, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
My husband and I spent a week at this beautiful farm and loved every minute of it! Barbara and Forry have restored all the buildings beautifully and were very pleasant to do business with! We are looking forward to our next stay! If you want seclusion and something close to Gettysburg this is the place for you.

WOW! This place is a must see!

tlcisfree Woodville, Ohio
Review Submitted: August 3, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
Our family spent a week here in July 2009 and we are so glad we did. This property is outstanding! Barbara has paid close attention to detail in her decorating style. The farmhouse and little cottage are just adorable. We loved the swimming pool. This place is definately geared toward the family, but would also be suitable for a bunch of couples. There is so much to see and do in Gettysburg, which is only about a 15 minute drive away. We carved out a day to see Washington D.C. which was only 1 hour and 40 minutes away (to the subway). Everything you need for a week of family fun is right here! Just pack your bags. You won't regret this one.

Paradise Found

Review Submitted: June 30, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
Our family loved this homestead! It was about 1.25 hours away from Dutch Country, but this was fine with us and worth the distance. Clean and friendly owners who put their heart and soul into the farmhouse. We are reserved for next year.
