This was a wonderful place to stay! The hosts were wonderful making check in/out easy, left us snacks and little breakfast cakes and a bottle of wine! The cottage was clean and had the amenities of home. It was located close enough to Gettysburg to do what we wanted but was out far enough to feel secluded. We loved the array of visiting pets from the farm.

Beautiful week get away

The place is exactly as listed. The owners are close, but give you privacy. They give you a bag of cornflakes to feed the bunnies and the chickens and turkeys. We were traveling a lot so we were not at the cabin a whole lot, but the time that we were there was spent peacefully recovering from the day.

This place has all you need for a peaceful and cozy stay. It's our new staycation. The hosts are some of the nicest people you'll meet. This trip they sent me home with fresh cut sunflowers. They provide drinks and snacks in the cottage.The bed is extremely comfy. Very clean space. Screen in porch during the summer was so wonderful. It has a little farm vibe with turkeys, chickens, rooster, bunnies and a friendly dog. It's fun to feed the bunnies, they leave a bag of snacks for you to feed them. Its such a great spot.

Great place to stay in Gettysburg!

We loved the quiet of the countryside cottage. The various pets were fun to interact with and provided a ton of entertainment! Cottage was clean and the front screened-in porch was a favprite place to hand out at the end of the day!

We had the best time!

This was our second time visiting the property and we enjoyed every moment we were there! I could have spent hours outside on the porch watching the birds and listening to the sound of nature. The property owners are wonderful, they left us to our privacy but also talked with us about the their flock when we had questions. We shall return!

Perfect!

We were lucky to have found this cozy cottage for our one night stay. We were very entertained by all the animals that welcomed us. The hospitality could not have been better. Chris and Todd certainly went above and beyond. We hope to visit again, hopefully for a longer stay.

Amazing As Always

This was our second time hosted by Chris and Todd at Brierfield. As always we appreciated their attention to detail and thoughtfulness. All of the amazing animal friends are a bonus - Debbie, Izze, and the whole bunch. We enjoyed the peace and pace of the cottage which always allows us the time to reconnect. We already can't wait to return.

cathy and Jim's excellent advertion

Honestly, I don't have enough adjectives to describe the experience. The surroundings which included rabbits, chickens, turkeys, roosters, hens was absolutely idyllic. The lodgings were perfect, clean and quaint. Numerous not expected amenities, i.e., cheese and crackers, OJ, water, wine and more.I would highly recommend
