Wonderful Home in the Heart of Gettysburg
We are so grateful to have had an absolutely wonderful stay in Culp House and can't thank Brian and Tessa enough for their hospitality and offering their beautiful home for our stay. Culp House embraced us the moment we arrived with its historic charm and cozy surroundings. It is spacious and had all the amenities we could possibly need. My great-nephew (13) is hard to please, but he just loved his room, all the places to sit and read and the lovely patio in the garden. I knew I was in my "happy place" when I saw the Mort Kunstler painting on the stairway wall (one of my favourite Civil War artists!). The eat-in kitchen was a perfect place to gather for meals and play board games while looking out over the garden. We also enjoyed very much the games the hosts thoughtfully provided in the living room (I think my great-nephew especially memorized the Civil War trivia game!). We were able to walk almost everywhere of interest in town - the location couldn't be more perfect. Parking was so convenient. A big thank you to our hosts for making this such a perfect vacation with the most perfect vacation home.

Absolutely wonderful! Keeps the history of this old house while having the right amount of updates to be comfortable for the modern traveler. So close to everything! This may be the best VRBO we've ever stayed in. Perfect balance. (Despite the fact that we made the mistake of booking during Bike Week---very loud!)

The Cricket House is a great place to stay in Gettysburg. The facilities are very good, comfortable and close to the battlefield and downtown. The furniture is comfortable and plenty of seating for just spending time when relaxing following your hikes on the battlefield.

Lovely stay at the Culp House
This was just perfect for our group of four ladies. The home is so inviting, peaceful, and decorated lovely. We enjoyed morning coffee on the back porch. So many colorful birds to watch. The home is very spacious. Easy walking distance to town for shopping and eating.

Superb Location for Visiting Gettysburg
We found home to be just as described. Well maintained older home that perfectly fit the ambiance of Gettysburg. The house is conveniently located a block from the Culp Hill entrance to Gettysburg Battlefield Park. It is also within walking distance of the town's center where shops and restaurants are located. The house is furnished with several vintage pieces and is very comfy with modern appliances. We hope to stay again!

Spectacular
Our family cannot rave enough about the Culp House. Brian's home is located at a great location, 8-minute walk to Lincoln Square or just a short drive to all the shops. The home is very clean and well equipped with everything you need if you want to cook. To our surprise, there is a lovely deck out back with a fenced-in yard. There are 3 designated parking spaces for 3 cars if need be. There were plenty of towels and the beds were comfortable. Brian was very accommodating and responded very quickly to our e-mails. I highly recommend and we will be staying there again when we travel back to Gettysburg.

Centralized Location in Historic Gettysburg
The Culp House was exceptionally clean and very well stocked with starter items (bring extra if needed). Communication with the owners and check-in was expedient, making the start of our vacation painless. There was generous space in the home/bedrooms so that as many as six adults could stay comfortably. Culp House's location just southeast of the town center meant anything was in walking distance, or a very short drive. Battlefield monuments were close, and restaurants & shops were even closer!

Exceptional property!
Book the Culp House! Everything about this rental was exceptional. The owners were responsive to the few questions I had before we arrived. Upon arrival, I was thrilled with the parking situation of three off-street spaces next to the home. The keyless entry made life simple - no keys to keep track of. The home was spotless and welcoming. We enjoyed time in the living room and parlor and really loved the private backyard space for dining and relaxing. One reviewer said that the street was noisy at the front of the house. We didn't find that to be the case. The home is in town but there's a stop sign on the road that means cars are slowing down, not zooming down the road making lots of noise. It was not an issue. The layout of the house suited us perfectly. We are a family of four and our in-laws joined us. The front bedroom has a master bath and the in-laws enjoyed their own space. The other two bedrooms and bathroom gave our family our own sleeping and bathing space we appreciated. The jetted tub was also a hit! Plenty of towels, linens, and blankets and even fans if needed. The home is in easy walking distance of the town of Gettysburg. Ice cream at Mr. G's was a nightly treat as was the candy shop. There is plenty of shopping and dining within a couple minutes of the home. Thank you again to the owners of Culp House and management for providing a place to make great memories for our family!

Great location
The house was in a great location, but wouldn`t recommend for families with young children or elderly. The antiques were beautiful but afraid could be broken. The stairs were steep and tricky. There were plenty of towels but no basket available to put dirty towels in when we left. I was also suprised to find no basic things in the kitchen like salt and pepper. Check out time was listed on website as 11 but welcome book was changed to read 10. Overall, it was a nice place, just a few concerns listed above.
