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 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!

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 😎

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.

Great spot! Secluded, but very close to Gettysburg!
Thanks for hosting us! It's a very clean, spacious, and well-equipped home- perfect for a family or a group. We loved the secluded setting, despite being just a short bike ride from the battlefields. We spent a lot of time around the large firepit, and found the kitchen to have everything we needed to prepare our food for the weekend. Thanks for a great stay!

Perfect getaway
We had a wonderful time at this location. The house was clean, had all the supplies we could have asked for, and plenty of seating for the 9 of us who came. The owners were kind, checked in on us, and were easy to reach if we needed them. The proximity to downtown Gettysburg and historical attractions was ideal for us! We loved the wood burning fireplace inside, and also made use of the fire pit outside. We are hoping to return another year!
