Parking Included
We have enough room in the driveway for 2 vehicles. If more room is needed you are welcome to park across the road in the grass but we do not own that property.

Park in the driveway, not over the top of it or on the sidewalk in the back. We have a septic holding tank so there is absolutely no parking in the grass. Watch out for the well cap to the left of the driveway (marked by a small American flag). If you have more than one car in your group you may also park across the street in the grass.

Getting around

We have a small driveway to the left of the cottage large enough for 2 vehicles. We regularly park an SUV and pickup truck in the driveway. Should you need more room you are welcome to park across the street in the grass.

Please stop at the top of the driveway, not over it in the grass or sidewalk. We have a septic holding tank in the backyard which will not hold the weight of a vehicle.

Blue Coat Cottage sits directly across from Marsh Creek.

About us

Lee Ann
Lee Ann Burkholder
Owner
My husband and I are huge history buffs and love walking the Gettysburg battlefield. When the opportunity to purchase the cottage came about we jumped on it. Now we have a place to retreat to in a town which is special to us.

NO loud music or disturbance to neighbors. They live here permanently and we want to maintain a good relationship with them.

Please understand the cottage sits between two fields and is directly across from a creek. We have a monthly pest control service but you may see a bug or two inside the cottage at times, especially if the backdoor is open for long periods of time. These creatures reside in nature and we have no control over them. Thus we do not refund if you encounter them during your stay.

Host is not responsible for any items left by the guests. It is the guest's financial responsibility to cover the cost of shipping any item left in the home.

Notes
This 114-year-old home has low ceilings in a couple areas. If you’re super tall you may bump your head in the stairwell. Our son-in-law is 6’5” and manages.

The cottage sits between two farms, surrounded by fields and across the street from the very creek which General Robert E. Lee, and most of his fighting force, retreated over on July 4, 1863. Because our home is in the country you may see an occasional insect inside, especially if the back door is open for long periods of time. We do have regular pest control, but the longer the back door is open the greater chance there is of insects coming inside the cottage.

The home is equipped with 2 outdoor cameras pointed at entrances for your safety and to protect our property. We utilize these cameras during off times to ensure the home is secure since we use this property exclusively as a short-term vacation rental and do not live there. Arrival footage is reviewed to confirm occupancy limits are being respected, and no pets are brought.
