Spacious 1 BR Stratton House: A Cozy Downtown Stay Backing to Culp's Hill

Superior location in downtown Gettysburg historic district. Short drive to Ski Liberty for winter sports. Located on a quiet street two blocks from Lincoln Square, you can watch the sunset over the battlefield from the back of this historic property. We offer private off-street parking for your car.

This house was built by Gettysburg town physician Dr. J.W.C. O'Neill. It was later home to renowned Civil War battlefield photographer WIlliam H. Tipton.

The house is two blocks from downtown shops, restaurants, ghost and walking tours and events in the historic district. Half a mile to Gettysburg College and a mile and a half to the Gettysburg Museum and Visitor's Center.

When you are done exploring, let the Stratton House take care of you! Unique features include central air conditioning, high speed wireless internet, and a cable package featuring 150 Comcast stations and streaming capabilities. There is a large TV in the living room which also features a modern double reclining loveseat. There are four bedrooms upstairs featuring three queen beds and one double bed. There is a full bathroom on the first floor.

We provide comfortable bedding, extra pillows and plenty of towels. Enjoy meals prepared in the fully equipped kitchen. The fenced courtyard provides a seating area and gas grill.

If you are traveling with a baby or toddler, we can provide a Pac 'n Play and a highchair if needed. If you are traveling with pet - please note: We allow one small dog for an additional pet fee. That dog must be well training and go with you when you leave the unit OR be contained and not bark while you are gone. You must get preapproval before booking.

You will have private access to the South side of the Stratton House, which has a living room, bedroom, dining area, full accessible bathroom and kitchen. There is another vacation rental unit on the North side of the house that is completely separate from this unit with a separate privacy fenced yard. The owners live in a third unit on the property that is also fully separate from your rental. One parking space is available for your use. If you need another parking space during your stay, please let us know before you arrive and we may be able to accommodate your request.

This is a lovely, very clean house with some nice extra touches. Definitely recommend for a stay in a really good location in Gettysburg.For some reason, VRBO is trying to make me rate my experience on a winery in this review, but this house has nothing to do with a winery and we did not visit one.

This is a perfect spot. If you want to enjoy the vibe of historic Gettysburg. we walked everywhere even though it was hot and humid. We loved the ability to come back to an air conditioned, perfectly sized, super comfortable unit. Our hosts we're just great and offered us so much flexibility regarding our stay. We are coming back to Gettysburg and we intend to stay here again if we can.

Perfect for our couples getaway. Loved the historical touches inside the apartment. Great reserved parking spot and walking distance to town. The porch was a great place for morning coffee or evening wine....or the other way around. We don't judge :) We look forward to booking again
