Little History The Freckled Farmhouse is a Historic home that is over 100 years old. Historic homes back then had minimal ways to sound proof between floors and ceilings due largely to the design. You will find that noise travels and will hear the upstairs guests in your group. To aid with light sleepers we do offer earplugs for light sleepers and a sound machine. The Historic home sits one block back from a main intersection for orchard trucks and traffic going either to HWY 81 or HWY 15 with that means there will be road noise at times usually in the summer and fall. The location also makes it extremely convenient to get around. The Farmhouse itself is located very close to the intersecting road as old farmhouses were built before the roads. There is a fence running along side of the road. We do except pets for a $75 flat pet fee. That is for the first pet and then each additional is $25. With that comes our Top Dog Package. Obviously while you're enjoying your vacation rental your pup should not have to Ruff it!

Annual Gettysburg Trip
Had a wonderful time! Enjoyed the simplicity and charm of the farmhouse. We didn't know the owners also owned the Cashtown Inn. Upon discovery, we arranged a tour. Jeremy also visited us at the Rested Rooster and shared history of the farmhouse and surrounding area not necessarily related to the Battle of Gettysburg. We would definitely come back. Danielle and Jeremy have wonderful communication and the place is so inviting. Thank you!

family and friends
My family and friend's we're looking for a rental where we could all stay together. We had the entire Freckeked Farmhouse and having a bedroom on the downstairs floor was a blessing for me as I had an incident prior to my Gettysburg trip. The location of the home was perfect, very peaceful country atmosphere, and truly felt like home. We enjoyed sitting around the firepit and listening to nature. The hosts went well beyond what we expected, they are true gems. We had a awsome time and have already discussed a possible retun trip next year. Rhonda, family and friends.

I like the fact that this property supplied towels, bed linens, silverware, cups, etc. that made it less burdensome on us. This property was very spacious as well, it had plenty of rooms and sitting areas which was ideal for our group. The Management Team was very nice, kind, and helpful, they really went out of their way to make us feel welcomed. I highly recommend The Freckled Farmhouse if you are in that area.
