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.

Perfect get-away
It's a beautiful home—the photos do not do it justice. The inside is immaculate and has everything you need. We loved being close to everything—within walking distance of museums, shops, dining, and sweet treats. Everyone we met in Gettysburg was so kind and welcoming. We loved our stay!!!

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.

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.

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

We are repeat guests at the Barclay House and we love staying there! It’s very centrally located and an easy walk to shops and restaurants and right on the edge of the battlefield.

Fantastic find
The house was perfect in all ways. Convenient to Gettysburg downtown and battlefield. Comfortable and spacious. Quiet backyard and off street parking. Just make sure your car has good ground clearance before you go into the garage. We were fine in a Subaru Outback but a regular car would have trouble.
