I recently had the pleasure of working with Marcy and I cannot recommend her enough! From the…read moremoment I walked into her studio, I felt completely comfortable and at ease. Her space is not only beautifully set up but also thoughtfully designed to bring out the best in each shot. She has a true gift--not just for photography, but for capturing you. Every picture she took felt authentic, flattering, and full of personality. She gave great direction when needed but also let me be myself, which made the whole experience feel natural and fun. The final images were stunning--creative and professional. You can tell she puts her heart into her work and genuinely cares about getting it right. If you're looking for a photographer who is talented, professional, and a joy to work with, look no further!

Where do I even begin?! Well, sit back, get a cuppa and relax - this is going to take some time!…read moreOctober 1st-October 5th - the weekend of my daughter's long-awaited wedding. We took over. Every room. At first, everyone was "omg - we're all a minimum of 3.5 hours away - WHY!!!" As Mother of the Bride, I had a lot of work on this wedding, and Connie was my first contact here. She made everything perfect from the onset. My husband and I visited about 3 weeks before the big day to lock down decorations with Connie in the amazing barn. She made us feel welcome & was so incredibly helpful. We left with a feeling of control, where before I was just frazzled. I knew she understood my vision for the decorations and would do everything she could to make it happen. The house itself is a magical place with rooms tucked through this door, past the games, to up one of the two staircases, to behind that door off the parlor, to down the stairs through the solarium! Tea and coffee are always available, along with lemonade and water. They offer a variety of teas and coffee pods for all flavor lovers, including decaf. From this room we open to the grand solarium. Completely surrounded by the 2nd-story deck and porch with an outdoor fireplace! Big windows allow for streaming sunlight all day - it sparkles! Tables set here are for the 100% delicious breakfasts Sally whips up in the kitchen! The deck/porch off this room lent itself to the cocktail hour for the rehearsal dinner, where everyone had the most fun petting some of the many cats that live on the property! The stairs leading down from the solarium held two more rooms. Anna's Garden room. The other is Houghtelin Hideaway Room - wow! This was our room. While not technically an "old" part of the house structure, it oozed aged refinement. A large king bed was the highlight with the most comfortable mattress I have ever slept in! I seriously need to know what it was - I peeked under the sheets and did see a foam topper, but that couldn't be the whole secret! A big 1920s oak 'set-back" dresser gave ample room to put our clothes away. smart lamps on either side of the bed lent some modern convenience with USB ports, plugs, and such. A beautiful vanity sat as a use for either a desk or a vanity with a large mirror over. There is also a bench with a large mirror over - plenty of "getting ready" mirrors. A closet with overhead light helped to hold out garments, bags, with hooks set extra high for gowns and such. The other side of the room held a huge leather sofa that you just sink into! Chairs and tables allow this area to be a nice conversation nook. The bathroom was a masterpiece in itself! A huge walk-in stone shower with both a hand-held wall-mounted spray as well as an overhead rain shower head. They also supply shampoo, conditioner, and shower gel in a wall-mounted dispenser. The enormous soaking tub was well used by myself three times! The vanity was well lit with so much room for things underneath with open shelves. A door out of the room at back led to a small patio area with a table and chairs and a path that leads directly to the wedding garden. Everyone there did everything possible to make my daughter's wedding weekend a magical event, and I truly hope we didn't overwhelm them too much! Right to the moment we pulled out on Sunday morning, watching the house fade in the mirrors behinds us - we knew we would be back again and again. This place felt like home. And one last - if you are holding an even there is none better than Connie to help you! She is an amazing, helpful, joy-filled, exuberant, AWESOMEDANCER, of an event coordinator!!

There are trails and a pond to go fishing, an event space a fire pit as well as a tavern and grill. Regretfully, We didn't have time to explore all of the lovely property. Our cottage was very large with high ceilings. The bedroom, the bathroom and the living room were all quite large. We had an efficiency kitchen in the living room, as well as a gas fireplace and a TV. The beds were comfortable with plenty of pillows and extra blankets. The bathroom towels were large and plush. The interior was spotlessly, clean with hardwood flooring and cabinetry. I would absolutely stay here again. It seems like an amazing place to stay with a large group or hold some type of event. The price was right. If I ever returned to Gettysburg, I would try to stay here.

You can rent the connected corporal quarters if you have a larger party. The staff is so friendly, they brought our food we ordered from the tavern to our room on their go cart. It's like a mini resort for cabins. I would definitely stay here again. So close to downtown Gettysburg and the military park. Just a little heads up, Wi-Fi is not the best

My family and I attended a wedding on October 8, 2022 which was a cold fall night. The property was…read morevery nice and the barn/reception was beautifully decorated. As the night went on the barn was getting colder and colder inside which had no heat and no portable heating for the guest. The brides father plugged in several small box heaters to help make the guests more comfortable. At one point throughout the night the owner (older male with gray/white hair) entered the barn and started ripping the wires for the box heaters out of the outlets and yelling at the guests making quite the scene. The owner then yelled at several guests saying that we would burn down the barn for just simply trying to not freeze to death. I then politely attempted to talk to the owner about his actions. The owner got within an inch of my face and yelled that he had a "hot box" and it was our fault if the building burnt to the ground (referring to the electrical panel). Now I am no electrician or expert by any means but I would assume that the electrical panel was not to code and was probably a 100 amp breaker box when 200 amp was needed. I then told the owner that he needed to respect his guests and to respectfully go about unplugging the heaters instead of creating a scene during the first dance and father daughter dances. The owner was a complete a**hole and I would hope no one would ever give that man another dollar in his life. Overall the venue was nice but the ownership is terrible and would never recommend.

They really go above and beyond for every single guest and they add the personal touch to make your stay very memorable.

I will definitely stay here again when we come back to Gettysburg for another history trip vacation. I cannot say enough good things about the Lightner Farmhouse Bed & Breakfast. I highly recommend staying here and experience the top notch service!
