Superior location in downtown Gettysburg historic district. Located on a quiet street two blocks from Lincoln Square, you can watch the sunset over the battlefield from the spacious backyard of this historic property. You will find comfort for your family with four bedrooms and two full bathrooms. We offer private off-street parking for up to three cars.
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 who was captivated by the battlefield view.
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 from the Gettysburg Museum and Visitor's Center. A large variety of tours and experiences are half a mile away from the property.
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. TVs are located in the living room and in two bedrooms.
We include comfortable bedding, extra pillows and plenty of towels. Enjoy family meals prepared in the fully equipped spacious kitchen. The fenced yard featuring a swing set and a gas grill is a wonderful place for your family. Enjoy time in the yard using our custom-made picnic patio. You will find a large selection of games in our game room. We also offer a concentrated, curated Civil War library.
For those traveling with children, we have a highchair and Pack 'n Play for sleep.
We are only 10 miles from Ski Liberty for winter travelers who would like to ski or snow tube. We are 50 miles from Lancaster Dutch Country, 50 miles to Hershey Park, 65 miles to Washington, DC; 60 miles to Baltimore, 54 miles BWI Airport and 62 miles to Dulles Airport.

You will have private access to the North side of the Stratton House, which has a living room, dining room, kitchen, full bathroom on the first floor, four bedrooms and a full bathroom on the second floor. There is another one-bedroom unit on the South side of the house that is fully 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.
Other things to note
This is a very quiet church and residential neighborhood. We ask that you not hold parties or make loud outside noise after 9 PM. Also, we request that there is no loud noise or music inside the residence after 10 PM. These rules are in place for the comfort and security of all guests who visit us.
There is no smoking inside the house at any time. If you have a need for more than three parking spaces during your stay, please ask in advance. We may be able to assist with additional space.
