The Lodges at Gettysburg

m home. The Lodges met all of our criteria and much more!! The Lodges was the only venue we ended up touring because we loved it so much, and we booked the day after touring! Some of the perks that I learned along the booking process was that we received a “free” cake if we used one of their preferred vendors, a credit towards one of their preferred spas, a lodge for the two of us the night after the wedding included (with an extra meal from the wedding and cake, and champagne and flower petals included in the room!), and much more. Booking with the Lodges made it not only a special day, but a full wedding weekend! Since there was not a wedding the day before ours Beth allowed me to do some early setting up which I appreciated SO much and made the wedding more much less stressful. We also were able to have our wedding rehearsal dinner, bonfire after dinner he reception, the majority of guests staying overnight in cabins on-site, and morning after the wedding brunch at the Lodges which made it so fun and also made it easy for our out of town party members to be able to stay onsite for the full weekend. The night before the wedding all of my bridesmaids stayed in a cabin which was so much fun and I loved waking up at our wedding venue. I had many questions and requests leading up to the wedding (being in the wedding industry and my natural detail oriented nature lol!) which Beth always responded to quickly and kindly. The day of the wedding the staff (Nona, Matia, Beth, and more) were all so attentive, helpful, excited, and professional. I also greatly appreciated that their staff moved my wedding decor from the ceremony to the reception! The food and drinks for the whole weekend were also absolutely delicious. So many guests commented that the venue was absolutely “perfect” for us as a couple and I couldn’t agree! We are so grateful to have found this hidden woodsy gem in Gettysburg and I will continue to recommend it to my friends and clients! Thank you Beth and the rest of the Lodges team!!

wedding day, listens to your thoughts, makes suggestions, and takes the stress out of "what's next", AND she comes with the package--no extra spent on a wedding coordinator; she stays in contact throughout the planning and is very responsive; our daughter referred to this venue as "the Dirty Dancing venue" as it's all on-site, venue and accomodations; each lodge is named after a state in the Civil War, for all you history buffs. I can't say enough great things about The Lodges at Gettysburg; this place is gorgeous and will not disappoint. Cheers!

memorable, enjoyable and perfect in every single way. Our guests really enjoyed the onsite accommodations as well as the Sunday morning brunch. Splurge a little to get the post reception bonfire, you won’t regret it. Net/ net: the food was outstanding, and the evening, although packed with events, flowed without any issues. We highly recommend Beth, the Chef and the entire Lodges team!

n was so much fun! All of our guests had an absolutely wonderful time. Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better venue.

details over the phone. We had scheduling conflicts with the lodge for the night before the wedding, they were very generous and upgraded the lodge and comped the room. They let us set up the night before the wedding too! Working with Suzy was amazing. It was raining off and on the day of the wedding and she left if completely up to us whether we wanted to move it inside or keep it outside even up until last minute. She tracked people down for us and made everything so easy on the wedding day. I would 100% recommend the Lodges for all weddings, it is absolutely gorgeous and all the staff were so amazing! The front desk staff even helped us with set up the night before.

hart and Beth took care of everything. The food was wonderful and our guests really enjoyed their Lodges. Though we didn’t get to have our bonfire after because of rain, the staff delivered our pizzas to my father and we had a great after party in our lodge. Beth communicated with all our vendors and the whole day ran smoothly. I couldn’t be more pleased with how everything turned out!!!

ade our budget work! I’ve never felt more like I had a team of people working WITH me to accomplish things I saw in my imagination. The accommodations were perfect, the food was delicious, the space was exactly the right size, the details were flawless, and EVERYONE THERE IS SO NICE. If you are planning an event in the Gettysburg Area, please, please, do yourself and your guests a favor, and spend some time at the Lodges. They will accommodate you for everything from a shower, a weekend getaway, or your wedding weekend. I promise- it’s worth it! Thanks again to all the team members for celebrating with us! We can’t imagine our day in any other place.

very detail a reality. The chef was absolutely amazing with our rehearsal dinner, wedding dinner and DELICIOUS omelet breakfast the following morning. I can't say enough about the front desk staff as well, with making sure rooms were ready early for my guests. Altogether the whole experience was stress-free and made the weekend all we could have hoped for. Thank you so much, Beth and all your staff! We will absolutely be back!

went smoothly for our wedding day! I’ve gotten so many compliments on the space as a whole, as well as the food! The bridal show you also get to attend in March is so helpful in finding any vendors you still need as well! I found both my DJ and officiant there and they were amazing as well! Definitely recommend this to anyone looking for the perfect venue!

wanted to go with which was great! You really can't beat the Lodges with water front ceremony and indoor back up options, the ballroom, guys and girls getting ready rooms and the lodges so you and all your guests can stay the night at a discount! The Wedding package included so many extra! tables, linens, center pieces, table numbers, free spa credits, if you choose one of the bakeries they recommend, its included in the price! Plus so many fun extras! They have a Date Night for couples to try the food and with all the recommended vendors that they provide. (of course you can choose your own) Beth was available every step of the way through all my constant emails and questions. When Covid hit and things had to change Beth emailed us right away and already had a plan in motion. They set up a large tent! I never had to change my date and when it got closer the restrictions changed and was able to have my wedding inside. They had so much safety measures in place to keep everyone safe and happy. Sadly some of my guest weren't able after I already gave my count to the caterer, but I let Beth know and they were able to box up the extra meals for me so we could take them home the next day! The food was wonderful from the Carriage House Inn! After the wedding my husband and I went to our Lodge and waiting for us was some of our desserts (from Stone House Bakery- Yum!) food from the reception and a bottle of champagne! We were definitely spoiled. I can't thank Beth and everyone else at the Lodges for helping make my dream wedding come true! From start to finish it was the best day ever! You honestly can't go wrong if you have your wedding here!

ful enough, planning it during the pandemic was even more so. Beth and the team at The Lodges at Gettysburg made it so much better. We were making changes due to local restrictions, guests changing their RSVPs at the last minute, extra safety measures we wanted to put into place, etc. up until literally the week of the wedding, and they were so flexible and put me at ease through it all. It was important to me and my guests that everyone was safe, but was still able to celebrate our day. They truly went above and beyond for me to make sure that was accomplished. The Lodges at Gettysburg makes planning your event so easy. They include virtually everything you need for your day of, their staff is amazing, and they have a fantastic network of vendors they work with that provided everything else I needed for the perfect day. They have the cutest on-site lodging that is so unique. All that for truly the best value in this area. The staff made the day of such a breeze. I felt completely relaxed, as they took care of everything I needed. They were so attentive and kind. All my guests raved about the great food, the great time, and how much they enjoyed their stay (either the day of, or overnight). I would 100% recommend The Lodges at Gettysburg to anyone looking to get married.

ould be traveling in for the wedding). The Lodges was the perfect answer for both - theyre tucked out in the middle of the woods and the view of the mountains from the ceremony site on the pond is so stunningly beautiful, and we got especially lucky with all the fall colors still on the trees on a beautiful clear day. The cabins on site are also beautifully put together and very cozy, we were exhausted after the wedding but that was some of the best sleep we'd had in a while, and the champagne in the room was such a lovely touch! All of the staff were wonderful as well, Beth was absolutely integral in bringing this all together - Carson described her as the lynchpin in this whole ordeal and he's absolutely spot-on. That we were able to pull all this together in the middle of a pandemic and keep everyone safe and healthy in the process is an absolute triumph, and we wouldn't have been able to make that happen without her, she was so good about listening to our concerns and helping us arrange a solution that would be comfortable for all our guests. On the day-of she was absolutely on top of the game (or so I'm told), right in the thick of it all with my now-husband and my mother, pulling everything together until Susie took over for the event. Susie was a dream as well, everything went so smoothly and any hiccups that came up during the event were quickly and efficiently ironed out, I never spent more than a minute worrying about any one thing before she'd resolved it and sent us off on our way to enjoy the evening. The waitstaff was amazing as well, our guests had lovely things to say about them all. Unsurprisingly, we also heard a lot of praise for "my boy Kolton" behind the bar, especially from the friends who kept a drink in our hands all night (we appreciate them and appreciate you, Kolton). Also, shout out to Stewart for braving the frigid cold night to take care of the bonfire for us, it was the perfect way to end the evening and that there was still a golf cart running people up and down was so greatly appreciated by our guests. The front desk staff was also wonderful - thank you girls for putting up with all our dumb requests, and thank you Nona for helping bring everything together and taking care of our guests! The Lodges were absolutely perfect for our wedding and gave us an amazing celebration that people have continued to praise us for - if you're looking for a venue that goes above and beyond, please take the time to visit these wonderful people at this beautiful location!

COIVD-19, we never thought that we could have still had the wedding of our dreams. But despite everything, Beth and Suzie at the Lodges worked to make our dreams come true! Beth was so accommodating over the entire year of our engagement and showed that she truly cared about us. She stayed up to date on restrictions that were in place because of COVID and when things changed she let us know right away. We had to move our reception outside under a tent due to the restrictions, but they made the tent beautiful and in the end I couldn't have imagined it any other way! Suzie helped the rehearsal and the day itself be beautiful and go smoothly! And, in addition to both of them, the entire staff at the Lodges were so kind and welcoming the entire weekend. The ceremony site in front of the pond was absolutely gorgeous. Also, the cabins were beautiful and it was so fun being able to stay the weekend at the Lodges and not have to travel anywhere else. We are so thankful for all that the staff did to make our wedding amazing! We definitely recommend getting married at the Lodges at Gettysburg!

ffer golf cart rides to the pond for your guests. Beth at the lodges helped me plan my wedding day. She was quick to respond to my emails and questions. She set up “Date Night” back in March which helped you pick different vendors and try food catered by the Carriage House Inn. We had a great time and the food was delicious. Beth helped us during the rehearsal before our wedding day. On our wedding day, she helped us set up and clean up after. She did an amazing job with everything! Wedding planning during COVID was challenging and the lodges was safe and followed the governs orders. They set up a tent outside so you could still have your reception. Originally our reception was going to be in the ballroom. The tables at our reception stayed the same. I loved the view and how our floating candles looked as the sun went down. You do not get that view in the ballroom. The groom and groomsmen loved the new Gloryridge Game Suite with the pool table. Our wedding was beautiful and was so fleeting. I would not have chosen a different venue.

how not stressed we felt because Beth was so good at staying on touch and being on top of things. All comments from guests have been glowing and they all said how beautiful everything was. Thank you for making our day so special!!

d was always quick to answer my questions (of which there were quite a few considering the times). Even when the gathering guidelines kept changing, we always had a plan. We ended up having our reception outdoors in a very large tent to adhere to the state guidelines. While it wasn't what we originally planned, it turned out perfect! I couldn't have asked for a better location or coordinator for our wedding! *a little bit of advice however, if you know more than a week ahead of the wedding that guests have changed their mind about attending, tell Beth ASAP. Some of our guests decided more last minute due to the state of the virus and we weren't able to get a refund for their food or bar tab. We just ended up taking their meal home in to-go boxes...

ike - but those were our nerves not Beths! Our cooordinator,Beth, was AMAZING throughout the entire process, but stepped up in further in relaxing me and my family as we navigated the unknown! Our wedding went off without a hitch thanks to Beth and her team. She communicates promptly with a smile, working to meet all our requests and her staff delivered! The entire way from the wait staff and bartenders to the front desk attendants who welcomed with a smile and encouragement and rooting us on. Nothing short of an AMAZING experience- don’t miss out!!

ery kind and professional. The other staff (front desk, waiters, bartenders, etc) was just as friendly and helpful. Everyone was so genuinely friendly and excited for our day. The only downside to the entire day was that another bridal party was scheduled to do their rehearsal during our photos, so our photographer had to ask them several times to move. Additionally that wedding party moved several of the decor at the alter that we had decorated, resulting in my bridal party rushing to fix it right before the ceremony. Honestly, at the time it didn’t bother me too much bc I was so happy to be getting married to my husband and my photographer was incredible and took charge, but in hindsight, I should’ve addressed the situation immediately. Had I, I’m confident that it would have been addressed swiftly. The food that was catered by the on site caterer was delicious and beautifully presented. The room and ambiance was perfect. And of course, the Lodges themselves were gorgeous! I would 100% recommend The Lodges for any wedding or big event. They were so welcoming and helpful, which was perfect for my husband and I.

ual event, I was a bride with about 1,000 questions (sorry Beth!) and she always answered my emails timely, happily, and was beyond understanding! She also met with us to plan every step of the day out and ensured that each detail was exactly how we pictured it. She also made sure to offer a variety of options for decorations, placements, setups, times, colors, and much much more. The organization that goes into a wedding is crazy, but Beth takes it all on with a smile on her face! We had our rehearsal dinner, ceremony, reception, and morning after breakfast there and received so many compliments on the way everything ran so smoothly, the AMAZING food that was served, and the beautiful lodges that many stayed in - not to mention the area is just fantastic! They use golf carts to aid with getting people from the ceremony to the reception and truly made sure everyone was taken care of. As a couple, the one thing we are always told is how we won't get to eat on our wedding day - The Lodges makes sure that's not true! We had our own private appetizers together and (although we ate at our reception) also had both of our meals and a bit of dessert left in our actual lodge after the wedding with champagne! Although this was such a small thing, it truly made the end of the night that much more special and we loved being able to enjoy the food we had picked out. The breakfast the next day allowed us the chance to say goodbye to our guests and still had such sweet and thoughtful touches. There was not a single worker there that was not willing to help in every way possible with a smile and I will forever be grateful that I was able to relax and enjoy my wedding completely! I would have my wedding here over and over and I cannot wait to return for anniversaries in the future!

th said to each other that we could definitely picture exchanging vows at that very spot. A couple of years later, Chris asked for my hand in marriage and immediately the questions started; when's the big day? did you find your dress? what colors are you considering? We had absolutely no answers except for one: we would be getting married at The Lodges at Gettysburg. We didn't look anywhere else, the moment we started planning, we sent an email to The Lodges and instantly were contacted with answers, packages, and collateral to consider. I cannot say this enough: Beth was an absolute pleasure to work with! She answered every single one of my questions quickly, accurately, and calmed all of my concerns throughout the entire process! Even though we live three hours away, the planning process was pain free. She kept us on schedule, provided suggestions, coordinated her team, and overall made our wedding as stress free as possible. This was both of our first weddings, but I've helped my friends in planning their big days, and in my opinion, The Lodges at Gettysburg made EVERYTHING easy and pain-free. The Bridal Show we attended was an essential and delightful part of the process. The food was delicious, the vendors were awesome, and we were able to take care of 75% of the decisions just from this one event. Everything from table and chair rentals, to florists and make up artists, to food and drink, to ceremony accessories and live bird rentals, to even the numbers for the tables can be coordinated with The Lodges at Gettysburg, and honestly I don't know what we would have done without the connections they provided for us. In the very, very beginning, I was concerned about how many things I'd be able to make myself, but honestly, having Beth and the Lodges at Gettysburg handle the majority of those ideas made for a much more relaxed and perfect event for everyone involved. Not to mention that their pricing is beyond fair for the amount of work and stress it eliminates from the already hectic wedding planning process. Every single one of our guests told us how amazing their experiences were with the check in process, the lodges themselves, the food, drinks, and with each member of their team. Though the weather literally put a damper on our fireside movie party, (seriously consider this for your event!) The Lodges at Gettysburg team was able to accommodate our party and we had a wonderful time hanging out together and enjoying the stunning views anywhere we went. Our family and friends loved the beauty of being in a beautiful countryside setting with the convenience of being just a few minutes outside of historic Gettysburg. Our group even mentioned coming back for a family reunion in the future! All in all, I could go on and on and on forever about how absolutely spectacular our wedding was, how much of a pleasure it was to work with Beth, Denise, Nona, and all of the team members that helped us, and how completely beautiful this location is. Our pictures are incredible, our family had an excellent time, our rehearsal dinner, ceremony, and reception went well and were a blast, and our memories are absolutely perfect. We are ecstatic with how everything turned out, and would not change one thing!

ct view of Gettysburg as well as perfect spots for photos. The wedding coordinator kept constant communication with me throughout the entire planning and day of process. We were on a specific budget as well and The Lodges offered several different package deals that were affordable and customizable to our needs and wants! My day couldn't have been any better! A huge thank you to everyone at The Lodges at Gettysburg! ❤🧡❤

, the Lodges staff was amazing! They have a bridal show every year so you can meet with their preferred vendors. Also, if you book your wedding there, they have a date night in the winter for everyone getting married that year. It is the day before their public bridal show, so you can privately meet with the vendors. You also get to try and pick out the appetizers and dinner that you want at your wedding. The staff was amazing the day of our wedding! They helped us with anything we needed and went above and beyond. Beth, the main wedding coordinator, was amazing throughout the entire planning process. She is so professional and organized. Nicole, our day of coordinator was amazing also! Anything that we needed, she took care of! We got nothing but compliments from all of our guests about the venue. I highly recommend booking your wedding with them!!

eria until I found this venue. I am originally from Canada as well as my family so we knew we needed a venue that included ceremony, reception, and lodging all on one property for the convenience of our guests. When we toured this venue I was blown away. It is such a naturally beautiful wedding site I knew I did not want to get married anywhere else. Plus this venue offers SO much with the price. They have prices that will work with anyone's price range. It can be cheaper depending on what day of the week you pick and also can have a discounted price dependent on how many guests book lodges. The cake is included, table linens, complimentary glass of champagne during dinner service,day of coordinator, $$ towards the salon on site and so much more! The catering company also has a plethora of food options to fit anyone's budget. ( side note: the food was delicious and received a lot of compliments from guests) Same can be said with the bar options. We booked it right away. Between December 2017 when we booked the venue to our wedding day May 12, 2019 our coordinator Beth was nothing short of amazing. She is very patient, kind and understanding. She truly cares about each bride and groom and wants the wedding day to be special and perfect. Every time I had a question or concern or was stressed out she was there to answer it all and support me. Without her I would have been a complete mess the entire planning process. When the wedding day came the ENTIRE staff at the lodges was superb. They made sure our guests rooms were ready early. The food and drinks for the bridal suite was served on time and was delicious and plentiful. The weather on our wedding day was rainy. Which no bride wants to have but the staff of the lodges ,especially our day of coordinator Susie, teamed up with the decor company and the day turned out beautifully. During the dinner service the first plates that were served to the bridal table had incorrect food ( wrong sauce over the steak) but I notified the catering staff immediately and the next plate and the following plates to come out were correct. So props to them! The catering staff was very timely and efficient with bringing the food to our guests and removing the dishes. And the bar staff was very very good at the drink orders and making sure our guests had a blast. All of the guests commented on how they loved the lodges and how gorgeous the property is as well as the reception area. It was the best day of my life and 10/10 recommend The Lodges at Gettysburg to everyone!

e person was wonderful to work with, especially the coordinator, Beth. She answered any questions we had and was so flexible. The packages they offer are affordable and include a lot more than any other venue. The Lodges & Carriage house supplies us with everything we needed from linens & silverware to a delicious three course meal and the cake was supplied by one of their preferred vendors. I can say that our wedding day was perfect!

looked great! All of the staff were so friendly through this whole experience. I know I had several questions leading up to the wedding, and I always got answers pretty quickly along with any explanations I needed from Beth Senseney! Our wedding coordinator, Susie, made sure we had two meals and some of our cupcakes stocked in the fridge of our lodge waiting for us! Couldn't have asked for a better place to have our wedding.

ith The Lodges and all it had to offer. It was the first wedding venue we viewed out of 8 and nothing topped the value. The add on options such as the horse and carriage, bonfire, and also being able to have a honeymoon suite the night of the wedding were what made The Lodges stand out. Beth was amazing from our first communication. She answered emails promptly, professionally, and with high energy. We love Beth! As far as the day of the wedding, I loved being able to relax and spend time in the Bridal Suite with my girls the morning of the wedding. We ordered mimosas and the lunch buffet from their Suite Snacks Menu. It was wonderful. I also love that they have chairs like you are in a salon, for a true beauty treatment. Everything was set to be on schedule until a storm rolled in about an hour and 15 minutes before the wedding ceremony. THIS is when the Lodges really make themselves stand out from many other wedding venues you will find in the area. Beth, Denise, and the rest of the staff at the Lodges and Carriage House were willing to switch the ceremony and the cocktail hour so we could let the storm pass and we would still be able to have our dream outdoor ceremony. It was hard work for them and they could have easily said "sorry you have to have the ceremony inside," but they genuinely want to do EVERYTHING in their power to make your day as you planned. They took plowers down to dry the area, fixed the chairs and even pushed down branches from the trees out of the way with their hands so the path was clear for the horse and carriage. At the ceremony, you would have never known that a torrential downpour had come through an hour earlier. It was perfect and everyone was in awe of the horse and carriage entrance. Everyone had a great time at the reception and enjoyed the food prepared by the Carriage House. After the reception, we had a bonfire for those who booked a room at the Lodges for that night. This was another thing that I did not think was going to happen because of the rain, but once again they made it happen. Ultimately everyone raved about our wedding. We had so many people tell us how beautiful The Lodges was and that we were trend setters for having the cocktail hour first. Additionally, we had several people tell us that our wedding was the best wedding they had ever been too and that credit goes to Beth, Denise, The Carriage House, and all the staff that bent over backwards for us. My husband and I are truly over the moon with how perfect our day was. The perfect start to our perfect forever. So if you haven't booked the Lodges for your perfect day, what are you waiting for?

weekend of the reenactments! It was FABULOUS though! It really ended up being like a destination wedding for our guests. We had our rehearsal and rehearsal dinner on July 4 - we were able to decorate and the tavern was open for our guests. We did the picnic package and Beth let us do some customizing for the kids. Food was fabulous (by Carriage House) and Beth even coordinated a cake to surprise a birthday guest! Guests were able to hang out all night - even see some fireworks & we did our own sparklers. Our guests loved that they had their own lodges and could spend the weekend touring Gettysburg. The rooms that the bride and groom get ready in are amazing. My hair and makeup women LOVED the light, the chairs, the room in general. My photographer was able to capture some really fun photos in the room, too. We were able to do a first look right on property and then hop in our car and run over to Sachs Bridge (right past the reenactors!) to do some fun pictures on the covered bridge. It's like 3 minutes away and makes for a beautiful photo. Back to the Lodge and I could do touch ups and Nicole was ready to whisk me down to the lake for the ceremony. I heard from several wedding guests that the folks doing golf cart transportation were amazing (thank you!). The ceremony was amazing and perfect and we had perfect timing because cannons and fireworks were going off from the reenactments! Definitely made everyone laugh. Since it was going to be so hot, I wanted slushees (frose' specifically), so the Lodges rented a giant slushee machine for me (2 sides and everything). We had pina coladas and froses. It was a total hit and the guests loved them. If you have an idea of something you want to do, talk to Beth- she will probably make it happen! We were introduced from the mezzanine. DO IT! Don't tell anyone you are coming in that way, though because you want everyone to be surprised. The only person that knew was our DJ. It was so lovely to be able to stand up there and watch everyone come in, be seated and then I got to see all of our bridal party come in! So special! The food at the reception was awesome (yes- I even got to eat!) and I loved our sweetheart table with the little lights underneath. We did minimal decorating because the Lodges does everything- so we used the Lodges vases and put flowers in (they even supply the candles) and we did our own table numbers, but we probably didn't even need to. We had our sparkler send-off (YAY!). Do that, too! Unfortunately, mother nature unleashed a crazy rain storm during dinner which washed out the bonfire area. So, our pinterest worthy s'mores set up was going to be cancelled. BUT, someone (I think it was the security guard or Nicole) set up the cutest little sterno fire pit on the patio for our s'mores! Thank you to whoever went the extra mile for us. That was awesome. I seriously didn't want the night to end. We had the best time. If anything went wrong, I didn't know about it. It was just FUN! I used many of the Lodges preferred vendors, so I think that helped with the timing and the ease of the ceremony & reception since they had worked together before. Bottom line - our wedding was FUN and the planning was not stressful!

he perfect day. My husband and I cannot say enough great things about this team and the wonderful job that they do. We are truly grateful that our wedding was at The Lodges and even a month after, we still have guests complimenting the great service and venue. They consider every small detail so that when your big day arrives, you don't have to worry about a thing. Check out this venue- you won't be disappointed.

- it feels like a nice getaway from reality. From the time we booked our date, a year and a half in advance of the wedding, Beth and team answered every call and email with kindness and enthusiasm. I greatly appreciated Beth's thorough responses and coordination. It was great to have the catering already handled through Carriage House Inn, as well as the cake, linens, tableware, etc. included. Although we had a church ceremony, the reception went seamlessly. The staff handled everything behind the scenes with no hiccups. Our guests had nothing but great things to say about their experience, from the food to the accommodations to the setting itself. One of our favorite parts was the bonfire, where our guests could join us after the reception ended and enjoy some s'mores. I am so glad we picked The Lodges for a unique and charming wedding day - we have amazing memories and photos to relive our experience. I recommend The Lodges to any couple - you will not regret it!

ning process. Special thanks to Beth and Leeann for all their help in making our day one to remember for the years to come!

MG the food!! All of our guests were blown away with the location, food, execution of the day, and the amount of flexibility the Lodges offer. We just got married yesterday at this venue and we were compelled to write a review ASAP. So do yourself a favor, if you want to do your wedding or event right, book with the Lodges. You will not regret it. A special thank you to everyone who contributed to our special day!

of the countryside, perfect for pictures. Add to that, the convenience of on site accommodations and multiple ceremony location options; this venue really has it all. Throughout the entire planning and day of process the team at the Lodges was helpful and professional. They helped make our day perfect, what more could you ask for?

that allow for the prettiest pictures to be taken. My dad and I walked from the top all the way down to the ceremony space (which was so nice to have an extra long walk) and I heard from guests that it was so beautiful with how the light was shining and the trees (one guest said that even she started tearing up!). The venue itself is so beautiful. You could honestly do the most minimal decorations and it would still be gorgeous. We loved that we were able to bring our own decorations so that it made it extra special and uniquely us. We were allowed to put a sign up on one of the beams (we weren't sure at first if we could because we had to use a nail and hammer it but they were so nice and told us to go right ahead!) which we loved. The lodges there are gorgeous to stay in!! We loved that guests were able to stay right on property. It was awesome since we had a decent amount of out of town guests that they could stay at a lodge, walk to the ceremony, walk to the reception, and walk back to their room! The rooms are cleaned to a T and spot less! You can even bring up alcohol from the tavern that is on property back to your room. We worked with Beth for everything and had Susie as our day of coordinator. These two are AMAZING! Thank goodness for Beth- she answered all our questions in a timely and happy manner. She helped us set up a second room block when I had a panic attack we weren't going to be able to accommodate everyone- she had it set up within a day.. so awesome! She made everything perfect for her and we cannot thank her enough for all she did. I can't imagine how many e-mails she goes through a day but she always takes time to answer you and makes you feel like your the only bride and groom she's working with. She works to make sure you are always treated as her top priority and it is so appreciated. We loved having Susie as our day of coordinator. She made the day go so smoothly and took care of everything for us. I am sure random things came up in the day but I honestly have no idea about them! If anything did come up- Susie was on it and took care of it! She listened to us and made sure to make us her top priority that day. We cannot thank her enough! The staff at the Lodges is absolutely amazing! They are so nice and kind- I wish I knew everyone's names because they were great!!! Thank you for all that you guys do- you were great! The food was delicious!! We did the pulled pork BBQ, chicken breast, mac n cheese, baked beans, etc. and it was SO great!! I still am dreaming about that dinner- it was such good comfort food. We had the BEST bartenders around. Everyone is still talking about how great they were! We were able to do a bon fire afterwards and everyone had a great time! Our room for the night was amazing and they provide a bottle of champagne which was so sweet to come back and see in our room. The Lodges does a fantastic job at making your day extra special with little touches like that. We cannot wait to come to the Lodges and spend anniversaries there. The lodges will always hold a special place in our hearts and we cannot recommend them enough to have your wedding there- you will not be disappointed!

this, the staff was so kind and so willing to turn the indoor space into the perfect option. We were still able to take beautiful photos outdoors and the guests all talked about how the snow just made their guest lodges feel even cozier! This venue does have exclusive catering through the Carriage House. It was one of our reservations about choosing this option as we were hoping to price out multiple caterers; however, the food was amazing and they give you a lot of ways to adjust the menu to fit your price range. The pre-wedding “Date Night” was how we met and chose most of our vendors, so that was definitely a perk! Beth was SO helpful throughout the entire planning process and we can’t thank her enough.

millions of emails (because I was so nervous) and Austin was extraordinary the day of our wedding. He was on top of everything, between moving stuff from ceremony to reception to constantly supplying us with drinks to tearing all my decorations down at the end. I highly recommend!!! I am so glad we choose the Lodges and will definitely be back.

ing, Beth, Susie, and staff went above and beyond to make the most of this situation and gave us an amazing ceremony and gorgeous reception. The overnight lodges were beautiful and perfect for our guests with all the right amenities. If we had it to do over again we would absolutely choose The Lodges at Gettysburg for our wedding and highly recommend them for any event you might want to plan. Thanks Beth, Susie, Denise, and staff!

experience. From start to finish I knew I had nothing to worry about. I was in good hands. The location is breathtaking. The food from the Carriage House was amazing! We also had our rehearsal dinner there and the food for that was excellent! Beth was so kind and helpful every step of the way. Nona, the front desk manager was so outgoing and did everything in her power to help in any way on the day of! Her personality is the best! I have nothing but kind words to say about the Lodges at Gettysburg. The bridal suite was so much fun with pitchers of mimosas! The cabins to stay over night in were very nice and clean. Everything for the reception was set up just as I imagined! Our wedding is truly a day to remember and we continue to get compliments on how perfect the day/night was! We could not have asked for a better experience!

ry single question I had about having a wedding!! They helped organize our on site lodging, as almost all guests had to stay over night. They were accommodating down to the weeks before ensuring all of our guests had a place to stay! I felt so special on my wedding weekend by all of the staff! They really pamper you! Susie was out day-of coordinator and she was out of this world helpful! She took care of everything and checked in often the day of the wedding! I really trusted them with everything! My guests have RAVED about our wedding! So many compliments on the food and staff. The venue is so perfect, both inside and out! I could not recommend more!

ed anywhere else. Their attention to detail and organization is top-notch! Our wedding was everything we wanted and more!

ges are stunning. Our wedding package was affordable and included many amenities, including the cake which was built into our dinner prices making it one less thing to worry about! . Our guests had an amazing time and I would definitely recommend the Lodges as a wedding venue!

e Lodges had just that and the pricing is unbeatable. Guests loved that they could literally walk 5 minutes to their rooms after the reception was over and it was such a peace of mind knowing my guests didn't feel that they had to drive home after celebrating with us all night. In regards to our lodge for the night, it was absolutely beautiful! They had placed rose petals on the floor and the bed and a complimentary bottle of champagne. Such an amazing thing to walk in to! We had such a lovely experience here! I would recommend this location to anyone! Thank you so much Beth and Austin! You guys were so amazing!

inator and she went above and beyond for us. She dealt with a constant influx of questions from five separate parents plus me and my husband and always answered thoroughly and politely. I can't imagine that we were the easiest family to work with just because we asked for so much. She helped my stepmom figure out logistics to the tiniest details, she helped my mother-in-law upgrade the wine and champagne, and overall she just handled us with a smile. We are eternally grateful for her, Nona, and the rest of the staff, even the people at the front desk who cheered us on and greeted us with smiles on our wedding day. And everything went off without a single problem. No crises, no issues, they planned and prepared to a T. A++!

-- whether making sure our rooms were reserved or our upgraded champagne and wine was ordered. She arranged a special tasting for us to decide on the food. The rest of the staff were wonderful. Nona at the front desk is amazing - getting all our guests checked in and putting the gift bags in the rooms for them and keeping me sane. The event itself was incredible. The bridal suite is large with two beautician chairs - we brought our own hairdresser and makeup artist. (We were not happy with the on site person). The ceremony was handled beautifully and the sun appeared over the lake as wedding went on. The cocktail hour was lovely and the dinner reception was great - with our upgraded champagne for the toast and wine service during dinner. The food was excellent although I would have liked to improve the presentation. We had strip sirloin and crab cake duet plate. When we tasted - the steak had been sliced. At the wedding everyone got a whole steak and a crab cake. There was a lot on the plate. However, the taste was excellent. They also were wonderful about our guests with special diets. We had small indicators on the name cards and the staff brought those people the correct food. The bonfire after the reception turned out to be well attended much to our surprise - everyone wanted to keep partying. It was a lot of fun. Brunch on Sunday was also wonderful - the food was good and plentiful and our guests really enjoyed the additional time to mingle and visit. This was a destination wedding for us although we live only an hour away. However, most of our friends stayed for 2 nights and some for one. It made for a very special time to be together. The Lodges is a hidden gem that is worth considering for a wedding. They know how to do it right. The staff and the facility are both top notch and they are willing to work with you around things that are important to you to do.

ktail hour to the preferred vendor list -- we are so grateful we chose this sight as our wedding venue! It was a little pricey (just a pinch outside of our budget) but honestly it was worth every penny. Guests also RAVED about the cabins on the grounds and the bonfire that ended the night was definitely a hit! Highly highly recommend!

was a beautiful setting and everything went off without a hitch. The staff did a fantastic job keeping the buffet lines moving so that each guest got their food at a reasonable time. The food tasted great! All in all, I would definitely recommend this venue!

anizing our families to know exactly what we were suppose to be doing. It was a rainy weekend but Saturday was a slight mist. The only negative I have about the venue was them trying to influence us into having it inside rather than outside. All morning the groomsmen and the father’s were drying off the grass and wiping off the deck where the ceremony is outside. By noon we were able to make the final decision to have it outside with all of the work the guys did. When people started to arrive people were not really sure where to park until we asked someone to start organizing the cars. But everything else was absolutely fantastic! Susie did an amazing job making us not stressed about anything and to make everything perfect and nothing we had to worry about. She also made sure we had our drinks that we wanted from the bar during cocktail hour while we were taking pictures and when we were finished she gave us a bunch of snacks before we got introduced! At the end of the night, they placed food in our room for a mid night snack! The bar stayed open for us so that the party did not have to stop! Our wedding was everything we could imagined it would be! They were extremely accommodating with the fact I did not want to have any of our guest in the balcony and they made it work! It was amazing!

they included so much more than most vendors. The Lodges provided everything from food/bar and cake to tables/chairs, tablecloths, dinnerware, decorations, and an on-site wedding planner for our wedding day. The Lodges at Gettysburg has stunning views for photography, we absolutely loved our photos that were taken there. The lodges where guests stay are charming, clean, and right beside the reception hall so that guests can walk to their rooms. They even have a site for hosting bonfires for guests after the wedding is over. Beth and Susie were absolutely phenomenal wedding planners, they were so prompt with communicating with us and so thorough with answering all of our questions. Susie thought of every little detail ahead of time so that our wedding was completely seamless, relaxing, and fun! We couldn't be happier with our venue and received so many compliments from guests on how beautiful and wonderful the venue was. We would absolutely recommend The Lodges at Gettysburg for weddings or any special occasion. The customer service and quality of the venue is fantastic, and the price for everything that's included is both very reasonable and well worth it!

dinner were excellent, laid back yet but very efficient and so much fun. The day of the wedding was beyond my wildest dreams. The bridal suite is huge and spacious, and it was the perfect place for all of us ladies to get ready. Beth made sure that every single thing was perfect, from coordinating with vendors to helping guests transition from ceremony to cocktail hour to reception and then send off. Beth and her team are so attentive and everything they do is with the bride and groom in mind. They took drink orders for our wedding party and parents so that after we had pictures done we had drinks waiting and our own spread of appetizers in a private room--just wow! That was so incredible to be able to not only get to eat the appetizers we picked, but to have a peaceful moment with our closest family and friends before heading into the reception. My husband and I were treated like royalty, Beth hand delivered dinner for us so we could relax and not go through the food stations, and made sure we always had a drink. At the end of the night, Beth drove my husband and I back to our cabins, where she had already dropped off to-go containers of our wedding dinners and cake as well as champagne and flowers, it was an incredible surprise! I cannot express how stress-free the entire wedding planning process and actual wedding day was. Beth and The Lodges staff, THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts for making our day a fairytale I didn't know was possible. We will be back on our anniversary to enjoy another night there!

decision process minimal, which is something we wanted. The food was delicious, so much so our guests were getting seconds! The Lodges also have preferred vendors, some of which we used and loved! Beth, the Director of Events, is AMAZING!!!! She helped us from the very beginning to the very end. She has the patience of a saint and is very responsive and knowledgeable. She always made me feel like I was the only bride she was working with, even though I knew I was one of the many brides sending her email after email! The Lodges have weddings down to a science and operate like a well-oiled machine, as it should be because it is the most important day of your life! Sarah, our day of wedding coordinator, and the entire Lodges' staff was so accommodating and helpful on our wedding day to us and our guests, I cannot thank them enough. At the end of the night Sarah took us on a golf cart to our Lodge. The staff put rose petals on the floor and bed, champagne on ice, and there were leftovers from our reception in the fridge. The little details made all the difference to us! Our parents hosted a brunch at the Lodges the morning after our wedding , of which Beth coordinated and managed for us. It was the perfect farewell to our family and friends who attended our wedding weekend. We highly recommend The Lodges at Gettysburg for a wedding venue!

tions we had. I truly did not have to worry for one second on our wedding day. Thank you all for making our day wonderful.

nks so much for making this day so special.

em!! One our wedding day we had a few set backs. Sarah not only helped us, she eased my mind!! I don't remember the ladies name, but they had someone on the grounds that made our wedding cake beautiful after it decided to fall apart!! Not only do they help with the wedding and reception they gave us some super sweet mementos as well. Since it rained for the most part of our day, they filled a jar with the rain water and they also took the petals that my niece threw and put it in our room as well!!! Super sweet!!! :)

e was beautiful and The Lodge, where the reception was held, was set up perfectly. From the get-ready rooms, to the reception hall, it was a great place for our guests and for the wedding party. The campfire by the lake after the reception was an added nice touch. From the beginning, the wedding planner answered my questions promptly, kept me informed and was very friendly and accommodating. At the wedding, the coordinators left no detail unattended to. They were excellent at keeping everything on schedule and making sure everyone was where they needed to be. The caterers used by The Lodges were great, too. The food was delicious! Everyone, from the servers, to the front desk clerk, to the coordinators, to the manager, were so friendly and helpful. Also, the fact that most of the wedding guests stayed in cabins on the property, made for a nice way to socialize and see friends and family away from the wedding. Being in Gettysburg, it also gave our guests things to do in town. I am so glad we picked this venue for my daughter’s wedding as everything was perfect! I would highly recommend it. All of our wedding guests had a great time and the bride and groom were so happy!!

ght on the property and spend the whole weekend together with us. It was tons of fun. The only negative I have is the short "window" for our guests to book rooms under our "block" and after the reception I had set my bouquet aside to bring home but it went missing which was devastating. The ended up finding it hidden in the back of a refrigerator and reimbursed my gas for the long drive back to retrieve it. Overall it was a wonderful experience.

, if I had a question, they made sure to answer it quickly. The Lodges at Gettysburg takes a lot of the work out of having a wedding and allows you to enjoy your big day. I highly recommend this venue!

r guests traveled long distance to attend and the Lodges did a FANTASTIC job accommodating the whole family! When we were planning, I thought that it was a little pricey side for both food and the venue, so I had very high expectations.... When it was all said and done, every single part of our day EXCEEDED our expectations 10 fold!! All of the staff were extremely FLEXIBLE which was one of the selling points for us and they supported and enabled us to make our wedding truly our own. Our guests loved the venue and loved staying in the cabins on the hill - it was so fun to have everyone close by and in their own little "house!" Overall, we had a phenomenal experience at the Lodges. When you book with the Lodges, you will truly have a special, personal, professional experience that far exceed your expectations. Thank you Beth, Nona, Matt, Terry, and everyone else who made our weekend unforgettable!!!!!

ks like. The lodges are a MUST SEE kind of place! From the minute we pulled into the parking lot, we knew it was the place we wanted to get married. Our biggest praise goes to the even coordinator, Beth. She is one of a kind and provided so much help and ease in the wedding planning process. She is so personable and takes much pride in the weddings at the lodges. As she may be a busy person, she responded to my emails timely and was able to answer my questions without any problems! The best part, she always had a smile on her face during the meeting process and the day of the wedding! My husband and I were so pleased with having our wedding at the lodges and HIGHLY recommend them!!

ery detail covered. Our welcome bags were delivered, our tables set up perfectly, our specific details done so well. The food is absolutely delicious, the cake amazing, even a mason jar full of rain water from their day wishing them well!!! We are so BLESSED to have had the biggest event of our lives at The Lodges in Gettysburg. Thanks from the bottom of our hearts!!!

k with and helped to make our vision come to life. The grounds are absolutely stunning and the staff was very accommodating. I would highly recommend this spot to any bride and groom looking in the Gettysburg area!

whole process of our wedding and made sure everything went off without a hitch. Our lodge was amazing, everything was super clean. The have breakfast in the morning and it was great everything was fresh. I would recommend The Lodges At Gettysburg to anyone. Thanks to them my special day was wonderful.

he was quick to answer are phone calls and emails. She made sure everything was in place and ready for the day of the wedding. Our cake topper was broken by accident, The Lodges replaced it for us. The food was amazing. Our guest loved our venue!

are still talking about the food! I was married 10/23/16. I did everything over the phone because my husband is military and we are stationed in GA. They hit everything I wanted spot on! I mean everything! The morning of my wedding, my wedding planner there fell and broke her ankle! They had already called another wedding planner before I realized the other one wasn't there. They treated me like a princess and made sure I had everything I needed! They kept me on time and kept things flowing! I didn't have to worry about a thing, and as a bride this is SO important on your special day!

alue and beauty of the Lodges! I would suggest this venue to any bride looking for a stress free wedding day!

from the bridal shower (in February) to the Wedding/Reception (May 2016). Melanie, Beth and Susie did everything they could to make these two events the most memorable for us! The cabins are gorgeous, as is the views of the rolling hills of Gettysburg! Thank you to everyone at The Lodges for making these two events the best they could be!

ave imagined. At their date night we met and booked all of our vendors and we couldn't have been happier! All the details and amenities were perfect down to having enough lodging for all of our out of town guests. Everyone enjoyed the wedding so much and we even had guests already plan to go back next year! We really enjoyed our experience and we recommend The Lodges to anyone looking for a beautiful venue!

traveling from all over the country, having them be able to spend the weekend on location was incredibly helpful. Also, I've always heard that your wedding day flies by (which it definitely did!), so being able to continue celebrating after the reception ended was so much fun with all of our loved ones talking and singing around the bonfire.

eception unforgettable. All of our guests raved about how beautiful everything was and how convenient it was to have everything in one location. Beth and her assistants are amazing. Her attention to detail is impeccable. She made our wedding day perfect and that is priceless.

d kept our stress levels down. The food was fantastic. We highly recommend the Lodges
