East Cavalry Red House<br>3 bedrooms 3 full baths sleeps up to 12

Make family memories at our peaceful hideaway just 4 miles outside downtown Gettysburg! We are1/2 mile from the East Cavalry Battlefield.
Tucked in the woods on a quiet road, you may forget that you're only a few minutes from shops and restaurants in the bustling heart of the historic town. This light-filled, split-level home is beautifully decorated with comfort in mind. This house is much bigger than it looks! The cozy cottage-like facade conceals a roomy interior with plenty of room for your group to spread out. It is ideal for large families.
The large yard is completely private, surrounded by woods. You will enjoy spotting wildlife from the deck by day, and relaxing by the fire ring at night.
There is plenty to do inside, too. History lovers can retreat to the den, sinking into a comfy chair with a few volumes from the owners' library of military and history books. There is a comfortable TV room with Internet and Comcast TV. You can sign into your Netflix or Amazon TV account or watch a family-friendly DVD from our collection. Families love gathering around the game table (seats 6-8) in the den to work on a jigsaw puzzle or sample our collection of board games.
We do have an Electric Vehicle charger on site for use.
Featuring a split-level layout, the house may present challenges to travelers with mobility issues. It is not wheelchair-accessible. The four levels are separated by three short stairways of 5-7 steps each. Please contact the Owner with any questions about the property.

Wonderful Home
Our second year renting the East Cavalry Red House. Love this place. The house is clean, has a great set up, terrific kitchen, fire pit, plenty of firewood, two outdoor grills, etc. The location can't be beat. Walmart, a supermarket, and plenty of other retail establishments are just around the corner, and downtown Gettysburg is 5 minutes away. Our hosts Jeff and Patty are the best hosts!!

Stellar 16th birthday getaway!
We had an amazing stay at this house! We came for a weekend trip for my son’s 16th birthday with friends and family. The wooded property is beautiful and private but so close to town. It was super clean, well stocked kitchen, easy instructions for everything, and the host was great to check in with us while we were there. We would definitely recommend this house for larger groups especially if you want a quiet location.

Great house! Would definitely stay here again!
We loved our stay here! The house was clean, the beds were comfortable! For those of us with artificial fragrance sensitivities, I was very excited to learn that they don't use any plug-ins or heavy fragrances anywhere in the house! "Free and clear" laundry soap meant that we didn't have to worry about bringing our own pillows etc! While the multi-levels of the house would pose problems for some with mobility issues, this house was perfect for our family with a total of 8 kids, ranging in ages from 22 months to 16 years old. It gave a lot of space for everyone to spread out but still be in close proximity. I didn't find any dry-measuring cups and the measuring spoon selection was limited, but if you're not doing any baking that shouldn't be an issue. I was able to use the liquid measures to get what I needed. Other than that the house is VERY well stocked and a lot of little details are seen to! A very well thought out rental! The hosts were very kind and helpful in their correspondence to me! The house is very privately located, but only minutes from Gettysburg attractions and shopping centers! Just a fantastic house!

Great Home to Stay for a Family
We could not be happier! We are constantly using Vrbo and not all houses are up to par. The home was clean and well stocked. We had our daughter and 2 grandchildren with us and everyone had their own space and yet we were together. We are already planning on coming back to Gettysburg and this is where we will stay 😎

Great family getaway
We had a great time staying at Jeff and Patty's place! The house was excellently clean, the kitchen was exceptionally well stocked (even with kid-friendly dishes! and coffee) and the house easily accommodated our party -- the grownups played cards, the kids watched movies and we all just got to be together. We had a great time visiting the battlefield, and then coming back to the house for a fire and s'mores!

Wonderful peaceful escape!
Wonderful stay at the Red House for our multi generation family of seven. Plenty of space to spread out and enjoy. Greatly appreciated how well stocked the home was: plenty of extra towels, toilet paper, paper towels, spices, condiments, charcoal for the grill, and much more! Pleasant interactions with owners and beautiful back yard with spacious deck. Would highly recommend staying at this wonderful home!

Thanksgiving in Gettysburg
Our family members from California, Texas and New York converged in Gettysburg to celebrate Thanksgiving. Lovely area with a rich history. We really enjoyed the outdoor fire pit and my brother from TX smoked a ton of meat. Easy access to everything from a quite and secluded place. Would love to return again some day.

The home was very clean and well stocked. Enough space for everyone in the family. The owners checked in which was nice. Only change I would make is to add another television somewhere inb the house. Otherwise, we really enjoyed our stay.

The Perfect Place for a Group
I rented this property as the location for the girls to stay on our high school trip to Gettysburg. It was perfect! The communication with the host was helpful and quick. The house had lots of places for the students to sleep and hang out. Everything was just as it was described. Beds were comfortable and plentiful, the bathrooms were clean. There were lots of sheets and towels for our group as well. I’m so thankful this location was made available for our group.

Awesome place to stay!
My family staid here over for Christmas. It was a very home place to by our surrogate family house for Christmas. The hosts had decorated for Christmas by putting up stocking at the fire place and a few other decorations. It was beautiful. The hosts had great communication with use and let use know they where a available to help if needed. It was very cold outside during our stay but we where all very toasty and warm inside!

A home base for my family.
I was looking a home close to my son and now new daughter in law wedding venue with enough space where we could all be together or younger could hang out without driving older ones crazy. Also looking a home with alittle privacy, good parking. This home offered it. The hosts were very gracious and had the home very well prepped, all we had to get was food. I would stay here again!!

Perfect for Graduation
We rented this house to accommodate eight families who were in town for our daughters graduation from Gettysburg College. The house was perfect for our group and is a short ten minute drive to the school. The house is very secluded with a nice yard which was a perfect spot to celebrate a great day. Would stay again.
