About this property
Visit our charming cottage this Fall & Winter. Enjoy the Scenery & Ski Slopes.
Escape to our charming 2-bedroom cottage in the small Pennsylvania town of McKnightstown, just outside Gettysburg. Professionally decorated in a warm Gettysburg Americana style, the cottage is full of thoughtful details that guests consistently love. Enjoy the well-stocked coffee bar, relax with your morning coffee on the huge screened sunporch, or unwind overlooking the spacious backyard, admiring the changing leaves. Most of all, settle into a comfortable, exceptionally clean home away from home, something our guests mention again and again in their reviews.
Fall and winter are wonderful times to experience the Gettysburg area. Take in brilliant autumn colors along scenic country roads and the historic battlefield, explore Gettysburg’s museums, shops, and restaurants, visit nearby wineries, hike, ski, or enjoy the area's quieter pace after the busy summer season. As the holidays approach, Gettysburg and the surrounding small towns take on a festive charm all their own.
Whether you’re coming for the history, a peaceful weekend away, a fall getaway, or a cozy winter visit, our McKnightstown cottage gives you a welcoming place to come home to after a day of exploring.
Located in McKnightstown, this vacation home is in the mountains. The Round Barn Farm Market and Statue of Sallie Ann Jarrett are local landmarks, and travelers looking to shop may want to visit Mr Ed’s Elephant Museum and Outlet Shoppes at Gettysburg. Gettysburg Railroad Station Museum and Victorian Photography Studio are also worth visiting. Enjoy the area's slopes with snowboarding and skiing, and don't miss out on the sledding.

My Father and I stayed here while we were visiting the the Gettysburg battlefield. The place was great with plenty of room for us. It was close to the battlefield and other things to do.
Would definitely stay here again.
This property was exactly what we needed for our weekend getaway - just enough room for the three of us & our dog - very short drive to everything we wanted to see, the home was clean and communication was smooth...highly recommend!
We had a wonderful stay. The home was very clean and the furnishings were very comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped. Even thought it was on Old Rt 30, it was still very quiet and our dogs were able to feel safe and secure.
Close to everything we wanted to see, downtown gettysburg, the battlefield, & adams county winery.
We enjoyed a very nice weekend in this spotless home 10 minutes away from Gettysburg. It is a cute and completely rebuilt home with all modern conveniences. A large screened porch is a nice bonus. We would be happy to stay here in the future!

I was extremely disappointed in this property. The only good aspects were the location and size. The house has a very bad odor that hits you when you walk through the door. There were several cleaning issues; stained dirty bath mat and towels, floors only vacuumed not cleaned, all baseboards full of dust, what appears to be mold behind the vents in the air conditioners in the bedrooms. The screened in porch full of cobwebs, dirt & dust with dirty furniture and the laundry facilities unuseable to me as I was to afraid to go into the basement where they were located because of the extensive dirt and cobwebs. I found a live wasp in one of the bedrooms and then found an active wasps nest between the window and air conditioner. Not a good environment to gather with family and grandchildren.

Nice vacation rental
We have stayed here before and had no problem
when deciding to return. The house is clean and comfortable. The only problem is the tub/shower, it is very
slick and needs to have tub mat and hand held bar for the tub/shower.

Great little house
House was great. Front door was difficult to maneuver. Instructions for the heat/air would have been helpful. But all in all it was a good experience.
Perfect location! Far enough away from the busy hustle and bustle, but close enough (10 min) to take multiple trips into Gettysburg throughout each day. Love being able to drive past so much history on our way in! Owners were wonderful about allowing us to have our pets! Only surprise was no access to washer and dryer and no grill. I should have paid attention to the listing better! Didn't put a dent in our trip though! Home was extremely clean and very welcoming! We loved sitting on the porch in the cool mornings, and it was perfectly air-conditioned to escape the heat of the day. Absolutely perfect for our needs!
We chose this location because is was close enough too town yet far enough away that we would be able to rest at night without the noise of bikes constantly! Very clean, a little on the smaller side, but it worked for ny family. My only real complaint is that there was not central air and we had to keep the bedroom window air conditioners on one specific setting. As that may be cool for some people, it wasn’t for us, especially being in the mid 90’s temp wise. I would stay here again!
Don was very kind and helpful any time I msgd him prior to our trip!
Everything was exactly as described and it’s in an amazing location—quiet at night but close to amenities and historic sites when you want to go out. Communication and check-in were extremely smooth and the place is beautiful. Will definitely visit again!
