Most prominently known as the site of the American Civil War, one of the bloodiest wars in US history, Gettysburg offers our hotel’s guests a varied look at the nation’s history. First, our accommodation are near Gettysburg National Military Park, where you can tour one of many battlegrounds either by bus, bike, Segway or horseback. Area history extends beyond the “War Between the States” and can be viewed at the Camp David Museum, Ike’s house and farm at the Eisenhower National Historic Site and the Hall of Presidents and First Ladies, a showcase of wax figures.
After a long day of sightseeing, sample the best of colonial dining at the Dobbins House Tavern, where you can step into a secret underground hideout used by slaves travelling to freedom on the Underground Railroad. Or consider visiting nearby Hauser Estate Winery for a taste of locally produced Pennsylvania wines.
Beyond the battlefields of Gettysburg, hotel guests can have a more “modern” experience at the Outlet Shoppes at Gettysburg, a show at the Majestic Theater, or playing at the Explore & More children’s museum.
