Conveniently located property that’s within easy walking distance to downtown restaurants and shops. Very quaint older cottage but clean. Small kitchen but we only cooked breakfast there and enjoyed the local restaurants.

Great Place to Stay
The Cricket House was a great place to stay for our first trip to Gettysburg. The battlefields were close by and many restaurants were within walking distance. We had one small mechanical issue during our stay and it was taken care of quickly. The beds very comfortable and everything was very clean. The host, Brian gave excellent recommendations for restaurants as well.

We were very pleased with the location. On a quiet side alley with plenty of parking-easy in easy out. Lots of restraunts close by, and just a couple blocks from the battlefield. Could easily accomodate 4 adults. Nice, private, outside sitting area.

This property was a great location on a quiet street. We parked the car when we arrived and we’re able to walk to everything. The house was clean and comfortable for 4 adults and spent most of the home time outside, enjoying the beautiful yard.

Had a great time staying in the lovely home. Only issue was the upstairs bathroom. The hot tub was way too deep and the shower head way too high. I’m so sorry! Thought I’d already sent this in. Guess I didn’t hit the submit button 🙀

Annual Gettysburg Trip
Spent the weekend in Gettysburg exploring the city and rich history. The cricket house was perfect for the four of us (two adult couples). The whole place was super cute and well located for us. Short walk to the square, shops, and restaurants. The backyard was well landscaped and just adorable- probably my favorite feature of the home. The only *minor* note about the house was the water temperature; it was incredibly hot!

Quaint cottage in a great location
My children and I loved staying at the Cricket House. Highlights included a well stocked kitchen, English cottage feel and easy walking distance to great restaurants and shops. The house was clean, warm and welcoming. The hosts were friendly and I would highly recommend this accommodation for people staying in the Gettysburg area.
