The property is exactly as shown in the pictures. The place is very cozy. The owners added a bunch of nice touches to make the stay even more enjoyable including fresh baked cookies and fresh cut flowers. We were in town to visit family and will definitely be staying here again. We cannot recommend this place highly enough.
We have absolutely nothing negative to say about our stay. The accommodations were extremely comfortable, clean, and every amenity we could have possibly needed was provided. Hosts were super friendly and answered our texts promptly. The stairway was a unique experience that only made this restored general store a great vacation stay. We would definitely recommend!!
We enjoyed our stay, there isn't really two separate bedrooms though, it is windows for the wall between the two beds. And the pictures throughout the house weren't the greatest! But overall our stay was good!
This property was very cool and the hosts went above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly. This is a good spot and I would stay here again if coming back to the Frederick, Thurmont, Keysport area.
We absolutely adored this place! It was wonderfully homey and comfortable where we felt incredibly comfortable relaxing and connecting. The hosts were wonderful both communicative and kind. We look forward to returning next year.
Beautiful historic home in the country! Hosts are very welcoming with fresh baked cookies and snacks and very accessible if you need anything. We had a very cozy and peaceful stay. We also loved hearing the nearby church bells.
We had such a lovely stay in Paul and Diane's General Store-turned-home! They were wonderful hosts, and made us feel so welcome. The home was super charming, with wonderful details throughout. It wasn't far from Gettysburg, so we drove there every day and had an altogether fantastic trip.
What a beautiful and cozy little place. Host are fantastic, place has everything you need and then some . They also make sure everything was fully stocked and left some nice treats. Best rental we have stayed at yet. !!!! Book now!
We had such a great time and enjoyed staying at the property immensely. Hosts were super accommodating and the welcome basket with soft jazz music was such a great touch when we arrived after several long hours on the road. We couldn’t be happier with the peace and location of the home. Will definitely be back!
Really nice stay in an historic old home. Old world charm for sure. If you don’t mind being 30 minutes from restaurants and city services it’s amazing. Loved the peace and quiet.
We loved our stay at the Country House. The owners were easy to communicate with and the property was spotless and better stocked than any other VRBO we have stayed at. It is a very unique home and was even better than the pics. Beds were very comfortable, air conditioner worked great (it was very hot in Gettysburg during our stay). We would definitely stay here again if we returned to the area.
It was amazing the restoration of the old general
Kept a lot of the original pieces mixed with modern amenities I highly recommend this home to future guest peaceful and I loved the church bells
We spent the majority of our time exploring Gettysburg, and this house was very convenient and absolutely beautiful. The host had so many amenities for us, the bed was extremely comfortable. We even heard/saw Amish buggies pass by. We will definitely ask to stay again if we come back to this area.
The General Store was a neat house, from the red brick to the inside windows. The hosts were more than welcoming with Country Music(Our Fave)playing, candle burning and nice temperature. The gift basket and cookies were so yummy.
