Fall Get-Away

The location put us close to everywhere that we wanted to visit. The memorial area was great - 2 ladies from our group (sisters) found their great-great-grandfather's name on the 151st infantry plaque. Beautiful area and good weather .

Family Getaway

We are so glad we found Tessa's place for our weekend family getaway. The beautiful home was perfect for our group of seven adults. It was comfortable, spacious, very clean & full of historic charm. The central location was so convenient - Lincoln Square and the National Cemetery were just a short walk away. Tessa was very responsive and provided everything we needed for easy check in/out. We will definitely stay again when visiting the area!

It's a beautiful home—the photos do not do it justice. The inside is immaculate and has everything you need. We loved being close to everything—within walking distance of museums, shops, dining, and sweet treats. Everyone we met in Gettysburg was so kind and welcoming. We loved our stay!!!

Christmas Festival Weekend

I booked this home for our group of 7 for the weekend of the Gettysburg Christmas Festival. Not only is this home beautiful but it is exceptionally clean and feels very homey. The Christmas tree and decorations were a fantastic touch. The home has ample parking available and it a short walk to the square, museums, shopping, and of course Mr G.'s. This was our third stay and we will be back again!

Fabulous step back in time.

What a fantastic home to begin a trip to Gettysburg. Stepping into this home was like a step back to the 1800's. I highly recommend this place to all. Centrally located to everything. Within walking distance to attractions and restaurant's. We will definitely hope it is available the next time we go to Gettysburg.

Wonderful House and Location

The house was excellent - just as described. It was spacious, comfortable and gave us the historic feel we were looking for in the heart of Gettysburg. Location was ideal allowing easy walks to the Gettysburg circle, the battlefield and many options for dining / shopping. We enjoyed it immensely and would not hesitate to go back to the Barclay House in the future.

This was a beautiful home in the perfect location. We were able to walk the town with ease. The outdoor setting was lovely and private. The parking garage was difficult to get into with the low front end of our rental van. My husband would love to stay again and so would I.
