Amazing location walking distance from shopping and restaurants. Lovely front porch for morning coffee. This house is beautiful and comfortable. We all slept great in the comfy beds. We have stayed at many rentals in Gettysburg over the years and this one is at the top of our list! We hope to return.

Our host communication was phenomenal, to the point you could ask her about activities in the area during the stay, she was a wealth of information. The facility was immaculate and welcoming after a long day of touring the area. I really appreciated having a garage to park in as well! Would definitely book again.

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 .

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.

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!

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.

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.

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!

Wing Crew Trip

The Barkley House worked great for us. We could walk wherever we wanted to go, we were that central. The house was well furnished, We are 4 couples that get together every week, all 70+, & we take a trip every year together. This fit our needs very well & is a spacious, well taken care of, pre 1900 home. Thank you for sharing this home with us

Awesome Place!!

We were in Gettysburg for three days of history immersion. This location and the home's appointments were great for accomplishing our goals. Generally, we look for overnight locations that have two key features: good beds and a place to cook meals and companionably eat them. This home offered both on spades!! The beds were super comfy in rooms that were architecturally beauties. The kitchen and dining space offered all the needed utensils and flatware. This place is Downtown and also within walking distance of so many shops and the tour bus area.
