Our stay in Gettysburg at "Lincoln Slept Near Here" was fantastic! The house was spotless and offered the perfect layout for our group to relax and hang out together. The beds were incredibly comfortable, ensuring everyone got a great night’s sleep. The bathrooms and kitchen have been updated and are lovely and well-stocked.You couldn't ask for a better location; we were within easy walking distance of downtown restaurants and nightlife. And a few outdoorsy members of our group actually walked to and from the battlefield (Culp's Hill and Little Round Top areas). To top it off, the free parking for two cars was a massive convenience. This is the ideal home base for any group seeking comfort and proximity! Felt just like a home away from home!

Friends weekend gone right

Very nice house. The restoration of the 100 year old house was great. It is in a great location to enjoy the square and down to the poont. All within walking distance. Everything was as described in the listing. As parents, we were impressed with the game selection and toddler utensils.

Family visit

The property was just as listed. Host was friendly and responsive. Loved the house, location, and the deck and yard for evening relaxing. The little touches meant a lot, like the charging pads, boxes of tissues, insect repellent for evenings out back, and so many others. Thanks so much for the lovely stay!

Wonderful Stay in Gettysburg

We really enjoyed our stay here. The house is beautiful and just like the pictures online. It was the perfect size for our group (2 kids, parents, and grandparents). We loved the location just a block away from lots of restaurants and shops. It was super convenient to the battlefield as well. The property owner was great. He provided detailed instructions for entering the house and was quick to answer all our questions. Great place to stay for a family visiting the town and battlefield!

Great Time

We had a great stay at Dan’s house. The location is fantastic, and is close to the Gettysburg Visitor Center and Museum, restaurants, and grocery store. Be sure to check out Gettysburg Eddie’s Restaurant and Gettysburg Polish Pottery, both within walking distance. I wish we had more time! The beds and pillows were very comfortable, and we had everything we needed. The upstairs bedrooms are a little warm at night with the doors closed, but there are fans stored in the closets. Overall we would definitely stay here again! Thanks Dan!

Beautiful house, great location

This house is beautifully decorated and very clean. The location is good. Great pub behind the place. Everything easy to get to. My family and I go to Gettysburg every year to see the tree and the Christmas Carol play. This year we got to see the Tubas as well. This was one of the best places we have stayed at. Will be returning to this house with the family. Highly recommend this house to anyone with a family. Space for everyone!

Perfect Location/ Nice house

We checked in on a Friday afternoon and found Dans place easily and accurately as described. The unit is clean and roomy. Watch your head going upstairs to the 2 extra bedrooms where you will find a full bathroom as well. The kitchen has basically everything you would need to cook basic meals, however if you're making breakfast for a larger group, you may want to bring big skillets. The appliances are new and worked well. The water is hot and the air-conditioning worked well. The back porch is tight, but okay for standing around to enjoy a drink before heading out on the town. Most all bars and restaurants are walking distance, and the battlefields and monuments are a short drive. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a quiet, comfortable stay. Thanks again to Dan, we really appreciate you having us.
