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.
