About this property

The School House of Gettysburg, rural setting close to main attractions

Our School House is located just 6 miles from the square in Gettysburg, and even less to Devils Den, Big Round top, the Visitors Center and the Outlet Shoppes of Gettysburg. Just 3 miles from Rt. 15 makes getting here very simple. The school house was once an Amish school house but has been renovated to include all the comforts of home. Completely surrounded by farm land, you can be sure to enjoy peaceful and quiet evenings.

Sweet Little Schoolhouse
This lovely cottage is about 6 miles from Gettysburg in a country setting. Very comfortably furnished, we were able to relax after full days of sightseeing. We certainly had everything we needed and would gladly visit again!

Nice place
Hosts were quick to respond to any questions I had.House was nice but could use a good once over cleaning for cobwebs. Many in the corners and on objects in the house. I killed five spiders during our stay. The toilet handle in the half bath was broken which made it very difficult to flush as part of it was missing. Overall, a nice place that is close to everything but away from the busy downtown. The suggestions for places to eat and shop were also a nice addition! I would add the Lincoln Dinner as a very good place to eat also!Im confident the things I mentioned above will be taken care of by the hosts and overall we had a nice stay!

Perfect place to spend our anniversary!
This house was amazing! Everything was perfect, check in was a breeze, and the owners were very nice. We ended up getting in late and they left some lights on for us which was awesome. I would definitetly come here again and recommend others to stay here as well.

Another great stay
This is our go to place to stay when in Gettysburg. It’s well maintained and clean. This little place has everything you need for a comfortable stay and is close to all the attractions but far enough away for peaceful, quiet nights.

Getaway
We’ve stayed in the past and had a great time. A quaint clean and quiet place where you can kick your feet up and just relax, which is what we did and sorely needed to do. The owners are fantastic! Easy going and agreeable to deal with which is not often the case. This was again an enjoyable and relaxing stay.

Nice
We had a nice visit. The house was comfortable and spacious. The only awkward part was the lack of window coverings. Not such a big deal in the livingroom, but the bathroom not having anything covering the windows was uncomfortable, especially considering one of the two windows is right next to the front door. Otherwise this is a cool little place to spend the weekend and its very close to all the places we wanted to visit.

Wonderful Stay at the Schoolhouse
Our family had a wonderful stay at the schoolhouse. We were outside of town, but still close to everything that we wanted to see in Gettysburg. It was a beautiful property and easy to find. Thank you!!

We had a great stay at the Schoolhouse. Ryan and his family were very accommodating in helping us do an early check in. The schoolhouse was perfect for my husband and I. Close location to hiking, monuments, downtown and tours.

Dad’s Time Away
As a busy dad, this property was everything I needed to decompress and get away from the stress of life. The home was quaint and quiet. The fields around it convey a sense of peace. Ryan was the most amazing host. He answered all questions promptly and was always ready to help out.

One-Room Amish Schoolhouse turned Vacation Home
What Ryan and Katie have done to create this little home away from home is nothing short of amazing! What was once a one-room schoolhouse is now a very spacious and comfortable rental property at a reasonable price in a peaceful and serene area just south of Gettysburg, north of Littlestown and west of Hanover, PA. So much to see and do at your own leisure if you choose. This place is always clean (my 3rd trip here), comfortable, and offering modern amenities. We love it!
