Had an absolutely amazing time at the Stratton house! Wife and I have stayed at this location before and will absolutely be booking again in the future! Amazing location and so relaxing!
We had a great stay at this lovely historic home! The location was convenient to explore the battlefields and for a nice stroll to dinner in the evenings. Owners Paul and Lisa, were friendly and hospitable with fresh eggs and fine coffee!and
Perfect house for our 3 couples of friends in town to see some lacrosse. Great location to walk to so much. The house had everything that we needed, and nice little touches.
Wonderful location. Stayed here with family for a 5 night stay in October and the property was lovely. Ideal location to shops and restaurants. Would definitely stay here again.
The house is beautiful, and perfect for what we needed it for. Plenty of parking for our bikes, and the host were very responsive if we needed anything. Would defiantly stay there again.
We stayed at Stratton House for a three day weekend in the end of September. It was a perfect location to see the sights of Gettysburg. The house was in excellent condition and had everything we needed to make for a wonderful weekend.
The Stratton house is a very nice historical home. The house had everything we needed plus lots of extras . It was in a great location within easy walking distance to restaurants and shops. It helped to insure a great Gettysburg experience!
Our 5 night stay was perfect in every way for us - retired parents with 2 young adult daughters and husbands. The house was spacious enough and in a great, quiet location to walk throughout town, with easy parking. It was a bonus that we had such close access to Culp’s Hill! We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend.
Excellent rental in Gettysburg. Central to the square and Baltimore street. We loved the backyard for morning sun, and the porch. House was clean, spacious, and well supplied. Hosts were great to communicate with. Would absolutely recommend and stay again. Thank you very much for a great stay!
Our family gets together every year in various cities and this is the nicest place we have stayed. The house is very close to the battlefield and downtown. The living room could use a few more adult sized chairs but everything else was very comfortable. Definitely recommend!
Perfect vacation spot for those wanting to be near downtown. Given the heat when we visited, we chose to drive most places but was a very quick trip, less than 5 minutes to everywhere. The house was very clean and owners stayed in contact to make sure we had everything we needed (although we didn't need anything.) Extremely easy process to check in and out, and would stay there again.
Family from Oklahoma, Michigan, and Wisconsin came together and made some of the best memories here! Location was perfect- walking distance to attractions, tours, dining and shopping. The house itself is very comfortable- our favorite place was the front porch for morning coffee. Paul and Lisa were fantastic hosts. We just loved our stay and can’t say enough good things about it!
We used the house as a home base as we were in town for a wedding. The house was clean. It was easy to get into. It is very spacious. Paul and Lisa were very accommodating and quick to address a minor issue. We intend to return when we can spend more around Gettysburg. We would definitely recommend!
This place is amazing, the house is beautiful, the location is great, the owners are friendly and helpful. I highly recommend staying here if you are taking a trip to Gettysburg. You can walk into town easily, but is it off the main roads. The historical battlefields are very close. The property is set up very well with all kinds of activities if you need them, it even has a large fenced in backyard.
Went to check out Gettysburg, PA and had a great time. The Stratton House location cannot be beat. Our group was able to walk to everything in the historic district, which made it nice to not have to find parking and get in a few extra steps. The house is perfect, beds were very comfortable and had everything we needed to cook a few meals of our own.
If you are staying in Gettysburg and looking for a place to stay, we HIGHLY RECOMMEND the Stratton House!!!
