The cottage was great, the location was great and the staff was excellent. The only problem we had was the futon didn't work correctly and was very difficult to open into bed and the recliner was broken but they were minor issues everything else was great

The cabin was clean and well maintained. It was quiet. My only real complaint was that the extra activities listed on the website are not available. The hot tub was not working and the slides listed do not even exist. This was one of the factors picking this site, and was disappointed in those not being available.

Beautiful, big campground. Kept us in a secluded area, with lots of privacy and wide open space around us, but without missing out on any amenities, or access to the battlefield or Gettysburg area attractions. Great price, great cabin, great space.

Was a great place to stay aside from the noise from route 15 being so close. Good to have the main route to Gettysburg nearby, but the traffic never stops, you can't see it, you definitely can hear it when outdoors.

We had a camper playing very loud music most of the day and into the night. He would not turn it down and the mgt did nothing to stop them.

Our check in was very quick and the lady who greeted me was awesome! The staff in store was friendly. The outside appearance of cabin was to be expected, nice and woodsy. The campground was nice, they had entertainment. The inside of the cabin was nice, looked like the pictures. The beds were comfy and the linens clean. The problem is how it seemed that the cleaning staff didn’t clean very well. There were cobwebs everywhere, the filter and the screen in front of the filter was extremely dirty and looked as though it had not been cleaned or changed in sometime. Dirt all over the window casing on the top. The frying pan had something burnt all over it, the lid was all greasy the new one they brought to us was no better. The spoons, plates etc all had to be washed. Dead bugs in the lights. We had to pull all of the linens off and take all the towels into the living area, but there was a envelope for a tip. I generally tip when the place is nice and clean, but I did not this time. I was really disappointed with how dirty it was, I was in town for my nephews funeral and did not feel like dealing with it at the time.
