The Third Summer, a Bed & Bed. 
| The Third Summer is our new twist on the old Bed & Breakfast. In The Third Summer you have your own complete kitchen and plenty of room to stretch out with family and friends after a long day on the battlefields. Our newly renovated 1930's vacation home is the first of its kind in Gettysburg and it's on one of the nicest streets in town. Located in the heart of Gettysburg, we are a stone's throw from the historic Lutheran Theological Seminary, the National Military Park, General Lee's Headquarters, Gettysburg College, and of course, The Pottery Poole. Within walking distance to "the Square" and easy access to shopping, dining, and site seeing, and still a private respite from the beaten path. Available for your exclusive use are two entire floors of a twin home. Fully furnished, professionally landscaped and decorated, amenities include: a new covered front porch with mahogany floor, three bedrooms, two Queen beds (one Sleep Number bed) and one full size Sleep Number bed, living room with two Click-Clack sofa beds, dining room, complete kitchen with all new appliances including coffee maker, hand mixer, microwave and range, dishwasher, new front loading washer and dryer, iron and board, window air conditioners, two brand new full baths, one on the first floor with a 4' soaking tub & shower and one on the second floor with a full size Jacuzzi tub & shower. Besides bursting with charm and history, Gettysburg has a myriad of attractions for our visitors from miniature golf to championship golf courses and shopping from outlets to antiques. We have art galleries, wineries, theater, horseback riding and bicycle tours just to name a few. It is exactly 10 miles from our front door to Liberty Mountain Ski Resort. We're only an hour and 40 minutes north of Washington, D.C., two hours and 30 minutes west of Philadelphia and less than 60 miles north west of Baltimore,MD. Best of all, for the kids and candy lovers off all ages, we are only an hour from Hershey, Pa, home of HersheyPark and "the sweetest place on earth"! |
 Better Than Expected, August 20, 2008 By Erin Dolgner (Homestead, Florida) The Third Summer was a wonderful retreat for our entire family. The price was reasonable and the house was perfect! We couldn't have asked for a better experience. |
 Already planning to stay again, August 13, 2008 By M. Poling (Orient, Ohio) We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The home was fresh and clean, and was furnished with nice quality items. The location is great. Easily access to downtown and the battlefield. The street is lined with lovely, well maintained, old homes and is very quiet and relaxing. We are already planning a second trip to Gettysburg and plan to stay at The Third Summer again. |
 By BEA (Baltimore Md) NICE AND COZY!, August 9, 2008 This place was very nice. After conducting a research online and comparing the different hotels prices, this place was around the same price as the area hotels. So for the money you spend at a hotel you can spend here and relax as if you were in your own vacation home, this place has every thing you need plus more. We had a very nice time, the BBQ out back just added even more convincence. If you want to vacation with all your family under one roof and not have to hop from hotel room to hotel room, I would very much recommend the property. |
 What a lovely place to stay!, July 17, 2008 By Liz Hendon (Washington, DC) Loved our stay at The Third Summer! Everything was perfect - we were happy, comfortable, and felt more than a little pampered in the beautiful surroundings. Centrally located, beautifully appointed, and clean as a whistle. SO much nicer (and less expensive) than staying in a traditional hotel or motel. We had a wonderful stay and would recommend the Third summer to anyone who wants to truly enjoy their trip to Gettysburg! |
Great Retreat!, June 26, 2008 By Lynn Matthews (SC, USA) We recently visited Gettysburg and were lucky enough to find The Third Summer. Everything was neat, clean, and wonderful. Everything we needed was available there. We had four adults, one teenager, and one six year old in our group. This place was perfect for us all. The owner was so pleasant! We hope to visit again. |
A great place to stay in Gettysburg!, May 1, 2008
By Win (St. Cloud, MN) The Third Summer was a wonderful base for us to explore both the city of Gburg and the battlefield. The house is just two blocks from the lovely Lutheran Theol. Seminary and 6 blocks to the heart of downtown. We walked everywhere except the battlefield. The Sleep Comfort beds were comfortable and the decor lovely. We appreciated the Civil War books and videos and decor. The kitchen and bath are small but totally updated and pretty. The washer and dryer were great to have. We lived on the wide and beautiful front porch! Nice rocking chairs. Lots of space at the dining room table and in the living room. The owner is so nice and accommodating and phoned to be sure all was going well. I highly recommend the Third Summer and plan to return the next time I'm in Gburg. The price was very fair. There were 6 in our party - we saved 500 dollars by staying at the Third Summer rather than a downtown hotel. |
