Innkeeper Life: How early do you need to book your room?

We give our in-house guests the first chance to rebook the same time next year. This means that we do not take reservations more than a year in advance.

If you have a special room that you want on a specific date, please call us as soon as you make your plans. Otherwise, it only takes one person to book the room and it is no longer available.

Does that mean that you shouldn’t even try if you want to travel at the last minute? No! Please give us a call and see if we have any rooms. Just be prepared to be flexible about what room you stay in.

We require a two night minimum for Saturday night stays in our busy season (April - November.) We will waive the two night minimum if you call within a week of your stay and the room is still available.

We hope this helps you plan your visit. Hope to see you soon!

Gettysburg: Camp Letterman

Gettysburg's Civil War Tent Hospital

Did you know your innkeeper Debbie March is a direct descendant of the Wolf family that owned the farm where Camp Letterman Hospital was located after the Battle of Gettysburg? When the Federal Government set up a temporary hospital for the wounded from the battle, they selected the location of the Wolf farm on the York Pike. The farm had running water, shade trees, and most important, good access to major roads and the railroad. The tent hospital was supplied with surgeons, nurses, cooks, quartermaster, and supply clerk. The hospital was named after Dr. Jonathan Letterman who was the Medical Director for the Army of the Potomac. 

Stories of the House: The Gardens of Battlefield Bed and Breakfast Inn

Here at Battlefield Bed and Breakfast Inn we pride ourselves on the scenic beauty of our thirty acre property. Throughout the property we have many gardens overflowing with colorful flowers and lush vegetation. July is in many ways the peak time of the year to visit and experience our nature preserve. It is also an ideal time of the year to take advantage of our Historic Barn or Solarium Event Venue and plan an outdoor wedding on our property. Take a closer look at the scenic beauty of Battlefield Bed and Breakfast Inn with this outdoor photo gallery. All of these pictures were taken in July, 2016.
