Voted #1 rental 2021–2025, & in the top 1% of AirBnb’s, Blue Coat Cottage is nestled between 2 picturesque farms directly across from Marsh Creek in historic Gettysburg. It perfectly blends battlefield access with peaceful country living. This home away from home is ideal for families & friends. Enjoy a fully equipped home with thoughtfully designed spaces, hidden kids’ nook, scenic views, a hammock, chiminea, front porch overlooking the creek, and a private backyard for relaxing & unwinding.

The space
The entire cottage and property are yours to enjoy during your stay at Blue Coat Cottage in Gettysburg. Relax indoors or step outside to the back patio, hammock, or front porch and take in the peaceful surroundings. Watch sheep graze nearby, blue herons land in Marsh Creek, deer and fox explore the fields, and birds sing in the trees.

Upstairs, you’ll find 3 cozy bedrooms, while the main level’s open living room, dining, and kitchen spaces allow for relaxing, cooking, and socializing without disturbing anyone sleeping upstairs.

Guest access
Guests have full, private access to the entire Blue Coat Cottage and backyard. Relax on the back patio with Edison string lights, enjoy a cozy evening by the chiminea making s’mores, or simply take in the serene country views of Marsh Creek and surrounding farmland. Perfect for romantic getaways or family gatherings.

Other things to note
This is a 116-year-old historic home, and a couple areas - particularly the stairwell landing - have lower ceiling heights. Taller guests should be mindful in these spots. (For reference, our 6’5” son-in-law stays comfortably here, but we like to note this for safety.)

Neighborhood highlights

We are minutes from the battlefield and 8 miles from Ski Liberty. The cottage sits across from Marsh Creek (the very creek Gen. Robert E. Lee and his fighting forces retreated over in 1863) and between 2 picturesque farms so if peace, quiet and some nature are in order, you’ll love Blue Coat Cottage!
