Summary: We came to visit Gettysburg and Amish Country and were excited to learn that while we had spent much time learning about the Civil War, Lee had actually come to visit the very house we stayed at and is detailed in a book located at the property called “A River to Cross”. Before we left we took a picture with our pup on “Lee’s rock” where he rested while the horses drank from a spring nearby and his troops had tea and recharged at the property. The property is very clean, located in a great in between to many destinations, and is a beautiful getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city. I’d recommend to anyone looking for a historic getaway to the mountains. Thanks again for a fantastic stay, Michelle!
