Property Description
NO ORDINARY ADDRESS
Built in the 1840's and newly renovated, this 2-level, 4-bedroom Italianate-style townhome apartment reflects the Federal majesty of the mid-1800's, and the individualistic expressions of post-Civil war Gettysburg. Street-facing windows on the main level are accentuated with stained glass, creating a feel-good rainbow effect in the common area parlor and dining room.
Bedrooms on the first and second level pay tribute to the owners' family heritage. Take your pick from the Charles, Chastang, Earley or Hughes bedrooms. Like the people whose names they bear, each room has its own personality and ambiance.
A major upgrade is the amazing chandelier-adorned spa bath that lets you know this is no ordinary Gettysburg address... This is The LaVerne Guesthouse.
Located one-half block from Lincoln Square and three doors down from the historic Wills House, The LaVerne is within walking distance to dining, antiquing, shopping, and the theater. This guesthouse is appointed with all the basics you need to feel at home, including kitchenware, towels, linens and paper products.
The property will be cleaned and ready for your arrival; however, there is no daily housekeeping service. Therefore, we respectfully request that you maintain the home in a neat and orderly fashion, wash any dishes used in the kitchen and spot clean when necessary.
This is our second home in Gettysburg. We welcome only guests who are willing to respect our property as if it is their own. This is why we will rent only to families or couples. Please do not inquire if you intend to use our home as a “party pad.” We have a property manager who will respond immediately if you ever need assistance during your stay.

Perfect location for everything downtown Gettysburg has to offer. We walked to restaurants, shops and right around the corner to a Ghost tour. Home was exactly as advertised, very clean, beds were comfortable and our family enjoyed our stay. Would say if not used to traffic noise may want to bring ear plugs or use the provided fans in each room. Would definitely stay again!

Fantastic location — step right outside and you’re in the heart of local restaurants and shops. The home offers plenty of bedrooms and space to unwind. Off-street parking was a huge plus and very convenient. We especially loved the charming antique details throughout the house, like the original doorknobs and stained glass. A perfect mix of character and comfort!

Great place with great location
The LaVerne guest house was a great place to stay. Very clean and centrally located to everything. Within walking distance of shops, restaurants. Finding it was a tad difficult since the LaVerne Guest House sign is no longer there, nor the beauty salon. Also, the house number is different than what we were given so the check in instructions should be updated.

Amazing location and very cool house. You can walk anywhere in downtown Gettysburg from the house. Bedrooms are spacious, and two full bathrooms are great. Kitchen and laundry are very useful. Highly recommend.

Great stay! Exactly as advertised. Couldn’t ask for a better location. Everything was comfortable. It was extremely hot but we had icy cold AC the entire stay, which is great luxury for an old building.Front door lock is a little worn, it was a little difficult getting in and out the front door. That’s my only comment, everything else was great

Great location and roomy
The accommodations are comfortable & the place was clean. Perfect location! The description was not very explicit about number of steps up to entrance from the back & front. A member of our group with some mobility issues found it difficult to negotiate the stairs. Being an older building it is expected there are some quirks, like the tub shower downstairs you really have to pull hard to get the shower to turn on. Doors are difficult to unlock. Especially front. A note in unit would help. There is no sign outside on York Street. We found parking out back and nice shop owner helped us with access to front as it says #29 in description but no 29 on the building. Would stay again now that we know exactly what to expect!
