We had the most incredible experience at The Lodges at Gettysburg, and we can’t recommend it enough! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by how beautiful the venue was — it felt like a dream. The ceremony location was stunning, with breathtaking views, and the reception space was just as gorgeous, with elegant decor and perfect lighting. What made it even better was the lodging on-site. Having our closest family and friends stay at the venue made the weekend feel so much more intimate and relaxed. The accommodations were spacious, comfortable, and beautifully designed. It was so convenient for everyone to be able to stay on the property and not worry about transportation. The staff at The Lodges went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly, and we truly felt like royalty. It was such a magical experience to celebrate our wedding, have our loved ones close, and enjoy a stress-free weekend together. We’ll cherish this special place forever!

This was the perfect fall venue, I absolutely loved having the cabins on site. The staff is very friendly, professional and helpful. Everything from alcohol, bartenders, food, cake is done through them (or preferred vendors) which when you are wedding planning is extremely helpful! The price is also great for everything you are getting, weddings can be very expensive in todays world and I felt that this venue was affordable.

Words cannot express how simply amazing this venue is from the sights, to the staff, to the lodges themselves!! The director of events, Beth, helped us with every single detail for planning our wedding day. We were in contact with her for months before the event and she promptly answered every single question we had, silly or not, which made everything so simple for us. She was an absolute delight! The day of coordinator, Lisa, was such a sweetheart. We met her the night of our rehearsal and immediately loved her. She helped the whole wedding party and our parents feel more at ease about how the flow of the whole wedding was going to go down. The front desk manager, Nona, assisted many of our guests with booking their lodges and helped to direct a lot of the “behind the scenes” details. She was also the friendly face that greeted all our guests as they arrived. We all loved her!
The food was excellent, the bar service was quick and personable, the scenery was absolutely beautiful, the lodges were clean and comfortable, the waitstaff were friendly and efficient, the quality of the service was remarkable from beginning to end. We can go on and on about how truly incredible every little detail was!
We were also given a list of The Lodges’ preferred vendors, which was helpful since we aren’t from the Gettysburg area. Every one of the vendors we ended up choosing were from this list and every single one of them were top notch people/businesses to work with.
All of our guests were raving about how fantastic the wedding was and how many of them can’t wait to come back for a longer getaway. We knew The Lodges was the right venue for us within seconds of walking through the door. It feels like a home away from home for us now and we cannot wait to go back!!

Recently attended our daughters wedding everything was perfect could not ask for more. The staff was exceptional in every aspect. From the rehearsal to the ceremony and reception. In particular, Lisa ,was excellent at anticipating the needs of the bridal party,as well as friends, family,and wedding guests. The meal prepared by the staff was commented on numerous times by the guest,(the best wedding food they've had.) Every staff member went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for such a special day. Would highly recommend

My fiance and I were planning on having a destination wedding in Myrtle Beach. Less than 6 months before our wedding, due to family health issues, we had to move everything back home to PA. We had to essentially plan our wedding all over again. With losing our deposits, We were looking for a beautiful, but affordable venue and were thinking we would have to settle.
We scheduled a meeting with Beth and were blown away. Not only was this a gorgeous venue for an unbeatable price, but the hospitality that Beth showed us will always stay with me. We told her our story and she went above and beyond to ensure we did not have to settle.
The staff as a whole was a highlight for my out of town guests. I lost count of how many times one of the staff went out of their way to show some extra kindness. I did not encounter a single employee that was anything less than first-class.
Our day-of coordinator, Lisa, managed all of the tiny details so we didn't have to worry about a thing. She checked in frequently and even helped to calm my pre-ceremony jitters.
The food was absolutely amazing!! Every single thing we tried was phenomenal. And the staff was sweet enough to set aside a plate of food, our cupcakes and some champagne in our wedding night lodge.
I could continue to point out all of the little things that left a big impression but I will wrap this up by saying that we have no doubt that our wedding was as amazing as it was due to Beth, Lisa, and the staff at the Lodges. I highly recommend them to anyone who wants a stunning venue for a great price!!

We had a wonderful experience having our wedding at The Lodges at Gettysburg. The staff was incredibly nice and helpful. They helped with setting up decorations as well as taking them down for us after. Our coordinators Beth and Lisa were just phenomenal from the day we booked the venue to the day of the wedding. Highly recommend!

We had our wedding at the Lodges on May 4th, 2024 and I can't express enough how happy we were with the entire process leading up to the wedding and on the day of! Beth made planning the wedding so easy on us and was very clear and upfront about everything we needed to expect the day of. Thankfully we had a rain plan in place because it rained the day of but even the rain couldn't put a damper on our day! The staff were so helpful in cleaning up the few decorations we did have and putting them all together for us to collect the next day. The food was delicious and being able to walk to our cabins after the party was such a nice addition and one less thing to worry about. Our guests thought that aspect was perfect as well. The cabins are very nice and include even more amenities than what you would get in a standard hotel room. It truly was just a wonderful experience for everyone and I would HIGHLY recommend this venue to anyone looking! The venue also left a little jar of water in our complimentary room on the wedding night with a little note explaining that it was rain water collected that we could then use to water a new tree or bless our kids with or whatever we wanted, which to me was just the sweetest, most thoughtful thing and above and beyond anything we could have expected! So so so glad we had our wedding here!

The staff and our coordinator, Beth, were all unbelievable in their kindness, professionalism, and ability to make magic happen! Our friends and family are still raving about the venue, the food, and the staff. Our cousin from Florida said she did not run into one rude person in the 3 days she was there. She said every staff person she encountered was so nice and friendly. That really says a lot! The food was phenomenal. Unfortunately the clouds came rolling in right at the time of our ceremony, but we were so Impressed by how quickly, literally within 15 minutes, Beth and team had transitioned from the outdoor setting to an indoor chapel, and everything was beautiful!! All worked out great, and it is a day that we will always remember. We can’t recommend the lodges enough!!

We are so happy we went with the Lodges for our wedding! They were so professional and added so many special touches that we would have never thought of. Everything was perfect, even though we were rained in for our ceremony. They were so flexible working with us and our budget. The wedding coordinators were very experienced and made everything flow smoothly. I am so thankful to have found this venue!

6/10 would recommend. Our wedding day and marriage was absolutely perfect due to very meticulous planning and a team of friends willing to help execute our vision. We truly do not wish to focus on a single negative aspect of the day because the positives far outweigh their importance; however as a bride, there are a few of the things I would have like to have known before booking with the lodges.
Be prepared for many upcharges, and when Beth says "gratuity will be included" she means 20% on your package, plus 20% on your bar tab, and they will still put out a tip jar, even after they were requested not to for being tipped prior to services rendered.
We asked Beth if there was any need for "wedding insurance" she laughed it off and told me that was a silly question. Yet, the power happened to go out during our reception for about 10 minutes, and there was no generator or backup plan.
A few very sentimental items were lost and thrown away by staff that day. Just LABEL everything and keep close tabs. My veil was mistaken for tulle by a staff member and thrown away, along with the serving utensils for our cake cutting and a few others.
When my mom noticed a family heirloom missing off the table during clean up, a few family members began searching high and low. Only to be met with resistance from the day of coordinator, who responded in a very unprofessional manner to one of my cousins, using the "F word" in response to them looking through the garbages, themselves, in the kitchen. I still have no words for level of unprofessionalism she demonstrated.
I was highly disappointed in this, especially considering they regard themselves so highly in professionalism, that they are willing to serve themselves a 20% gratuity, before services are rendered, instead of trusting that their skills are worth the tip in the end, at the discretion of the one footing the bill.
We would have liked to have heard back from Beth and asked how our event was and an opportunity to give her this feedback, but we've heard nothing from her, other than answering an email of a question I asked.
Considering they view every minute as a dollar sign, we thought they may have offered some compensation for the minutes and the items we lost: power going out, the staff disposing of items (veil alone being $350) the bar service also ending earlier than promised, all in all, probably $1500 in lost value.
If you go into this "financial relationship" with them, just go in knowing you are simply a client, you are a dollar sign to them, and I don't think you will be disappointed. For a $30,000 invoice, I had very high expectations of professional service that should have EXCEEDED my
expectations from beginning to end.
This is not to say our wedding was not excellent, but as someone who works in the guest service industry, and two families that run bars and restaurants, we found them to fall short in a few areas and have be provided this same feedback to them, so they can make appropriate adjustments if they desire, however The Lodges has refused to respond, even after generously waiting 2 months for a response.

I could not have asked for a better venue, event coordinator, or day of coordinator. We did not have a SINGLE hiccup with our wedding from start to finish. Beth messaged with every update and every next step. She was patent with me when I didn't have myself together and made an exception to a minor issue we had no questions asked. Matia was ON TOP OF IT the ENTIRE time we were there from the rehearsal to the very last song. She made sure we had drinks and anything we could have needed. Everything stayed perfectly to schedule because of her. The venue was absolutely gorgeous. They let us set up the day before so we didn't have to do it day of and scramble. The food was DELICIOUS and the drinks were top tier. I seriously could not have asked for a better day. If I had to go back and do it all over again I would pick The Lodges every time.

We had a truly incredible wedding at the Lodges at Gettysburg (LAG). From the very first day we toured the venue to the post-wedding teardown, LAG staff were kind and helpful at every step. Our day-of coordinator, Beth Senseney, was incredible and worked with us throughout the process to create the wedding we were dreaming of. She was very responsive (even over email!) and had a lot of great ideas she brought to the table to help us turn our vision into reality. Since LAG also does the catering and lodging I'll also say that the food was amazing and all our guests were raving about it, the individual lodges for guests are lovely and our guests had a great time staying on-site, the location is exactly what we wanted (rural, historic, elegant), and we were able to decorate the ballroom to our exact specifications. One of our favorite things about this whole process was that the Lodges has cultivated a fantastic group of vendors who have done dozens of weddings together- we just picked a few from the LAG list and they all worked together to create a perfect ceremony and reception.
All in all I really think that if you choose the Lodges at Gettysburg as your wedding venue you will not just have a fun wedding, you will be able to create some amazing, lasting memories for both you and your guests without any of the all-too-common stories of negative vendor/venue experiences.

The Lodges at Gettysburg is the BEST place to get married! From the staff, to the property and scenery, everything was perfect! Starting with Beth who worked with us multiple years out from our wedding date, having GREAT communication leading up to the wedding and day of. To Nona and her team at the front desk assisting with all the lodge bookings for our guests. And Kolton holding down the fort with his great skills in the Tavern. Everyone went out of their way to make our "rained-out" wedding into the best day ever!
-The outdoor location is beautiful scenery!
-The inside venue is beautiful with charm!
-The food and service catering was great!
We found this place because we wanted all out guests to stay on property and enjoy a great weekend, The Lodges at Gettysburg exceeded all expectations and some! It will forever hold a special place in our hearts!

We are so happy we chose The Lodges as our venue! Not only was the food delicious and all our guests raved about it…but the people are amazing and the grounds are beautiful! Beth was our coordinator and you can tell she’s been doing this for years and always made sure our drinks were full and we ate. Nona is a smiling face at the front desk and always checked in on us, especially me. The Lodges will hold a special place in our hearts forever and we will definitely be back to visit. Do the bonfire and pizza for the after party!

We wish we could give six stars! We got married late this summer at the Lodges and feel so lucky to have found this venue. Natural beauty, historic charm, a truly seamless planning process, incredible location, memorable “destination” weekend for our guests, amazing food, the most helpful staff, and an all star vendor list made for the perfect weekend in every way. Beth was our coordinator and she was a brilliant collaborator in every sense of the word. In what could have been a very stressful weekend, she somehow kept all the details in check for us and our guests. She thinks of everything!! Plus, she’s so much fun to work with and from the first time we met her, we felt we could be our true selves. One particular moment that sticks out is after the ceremony when Heather (the bride) went to get her dress bustled. Beth brought her a drink and hors d'oeuvres which was so needed! These are the ‘small things’ that marketing can’t really describe but truly made it the absolute best experience and the happiest day of our lives. Beth has also done a ton of weddings with the vendors on their “preferred list” which gave us much confidence that everything would go smoothly. And it did :) If you’re considering the Lodges for your wedding, DO IT!!!

I feel so grateful my husband and I chose to get married at the Lodges at Gettysburg, it was the perfect venue for our wedding! The property is gorgeous and has all of the lodges for the guests to stay which was perfect for our friends and family. We had our wedding inside due to rain and it was more than perfect, the team at the Lodges worked with us to make a rain plan that truly encompassed the vision for our day. Not only is The Lodges beautiful, but every single person we worked with on the day was extremely kind and sincerely felt like we had known them for years. It was obvious that the employees at The Lodges were invested your wedding day and wanted it to be as special as you wanted it to be. Beth, was incredible during the entire planning process and really helped us put the whole day together and work out all the kinks. Lisa, our day of coordinator, checked in on me throughout the day, was present throughout the whole ceremony and reception and really helped my husband and I relax and enjoy our day. I can only say great things about the Lodges, and words cannot describe how happy we are that we chose the Lodges to get married at. I also just need to say, that our guests have told my husband and I that this was the best wedding food they've ever had! Our wedding was more than we could have imagined because we chose the Lodges at Gettysburg!

I don't think words can describe how amazing the Lodges at Gettysburg is. Forget about the location being absolutely perfect. But the staff, especially beth and Nona, are phenomenal. Ever since one made us feel like family visiting. We hosted our wedding there, having lodging right on site was amazing. We heard nothing but great things from our guests, which we were not surprised about! We were also able to host a bonfire after our wedding reception and a farewell brunch the morning after. They made the whole weekend seemeless and stress free. It was the wedding of our dreams. I could cry happy tears just reliving and talking about the weekend. It was the perfect wedding weekend from start to finish being surrounded by our family and friends and having the best venue we could have imagined. They have gained some lifetime visitors from us and we can not wait to go back for a visit!

I have been staying in these wonderful Lodges for many years & when it was time for my daughter to get married, I suggested they look into it. They had been having trouble finding the right place, but once they saw the place & met the people, they or I should say she, was sold. Well, I'm here to tell you The Lodges did not disappoint. The wedding was a glorious event. The Ladies & the staff are unbelievable. Friendly, helpful, & most importantly knowledgeable. They effortlessly help guide you through your decisions, then cheerfully see to the execution of your plans. Now for nuts & bolts. The food was FANTASTIC !!
The service was FANTASTIC!! The venue & accommodations are not only unique but FANTASTIC !! Oh did I forget the scenic views, the lake, the photo ops, & don't forget the bar & grill, that place is right on! Don't think twice, you will LOVE it. Enjoy & Cheers

My husband and I got married at The Lodges in May, and we could not have asked for a more beautiful day or pleasant experience. From start to finish, we felt so cared for by the kind staff at The Lodges. Beth was very responsive and helpful throughout the entire process, from our initial tour to all the coordination leading up to the day. Lisa was wonderful to work with day of, and she helped communicate with the vendors and kept everything on schedule.
Some highlights of our day were the horse and carriage, cabins for guests, the bonfire, and the farewell breakfast. It truly did feel like a whole wedding weekend, since many people stayed onsite and attended the farewell breakfast. We appreciated all of the time we had to decorate the space to make it feel unique to us, although it's beautiful on its own. We could not have been happier with the staff, food, venue itself, or experience here and highly recommend The Lodges!

Our daughters wedding was this past Memorial Day weekend. We could not have been happier with the Lodges staff, accommodations, vendors, hospitality, etc.. It was the perfect venue and a perfect weekend. It was nice to have so many friends and family staying onsite with us. That really made it special. It truly was an entire weekend event. Beth was just wonderful and happily responded to our needs, requests, and questions. She took a lot of stress off of the parents, as well as the bride and groom. Lisa was our day-of coordinator and she also did a wonderful job. The horse and carriage is a really nice addition. I would highly recommend it. The post-wedding bonfire on the property was a great way to unwind after the big event. We got a lot of compliments from others about the venue and the service. We would highly recommend the Lodges to others! Thanks again for everything!

The Lodges at Gettysburg was the perfect place for my wedding! The ceremony and reception were absolutely beautiful, the food was amazing, and the after party bonfire the staff helped with topped off the night! The Lodges hosted a food tasting/preferred vendor night combo approximately 6 months before my wedding, which made it incredibly easy for us to find the vendors we still needed (bakers, hair/makeup, DJ), and all of the vendors they recommended were wonderful as well. The staff was very professional, kind, and helpful. We specifically worked with Beth Senseney for organization/planning up to the day of the event, and Lisa Leonard who was our day-of coordinator. Both Beth and Lisa were great, and I would recommend the Lodges to every couple looking for their fairytale wedding venue.

We were married at the Lodges on September 3rd, 2022. We never knew this place existed, but so glad we found it. Beth and her team are above amazing. One of things that stood out was I was struggling with getting a drink and taking my food to our table. Beth was right there to help. It seemed like she knew exactly where to be and when to be there. Everything was beyond perfect. All the guests said they never had food so good as well. I honestly can't think of anything that I would have changed. Highly recommended.

We are the groom's parents and loved this choice of venue. Staff was responsive and it was a dream to have on site lodging for the bridal party and many of our guests. We did not have to worry about getting to and from for the hair, makeup, photographers, etc. We had a catered lunch in the Game Room lounge, which was fun for the guys. I highly recommend booking a farewell breakfast if possible. It was another highlight of the weekend as everyone could relax and enjoy another meal after a busy wedding day. There were also lots of options to personalize the space, menu, decor, etc., some of which are including in the pricing which is great!

We had an absolutely wonderful experience working with Beth at the Lodges for our small wedding. She was great answering our questions in a timely manner and reminding us of things we would have forgotten on our own. We were able to plan a perfect day within our budget without sacrificing details. Everything down to the food was excellent. We would absolutely choose this venue over and over. We were treated like family not just people that were guests for the day.

We had our wedding yesterday at the Lodges and we had such a phenomenal weekend because of them that I couldn’t wait to tell everyone just how amazing the Lodges could be for your wedding event. From moment one working with Beth to plan our wedding was absolutely a seamless process. Their package is wildly inclusive & the pricing is fair & competitive. Our day of coordinator Matia was an actual dream. She made sure our day moved along smoothly and was so attentive and had a calming presence, she is a ROCKSTAR! The bridal suite on site was really beautiful & has a great vibe for photos to be taken. I was also blown away at how quiet that area of the Lodge was on the big day, thus making the morning of feel more relaxed and not so chaotic. The entire staff of the Lodges cares about you and cares about your day, making sure you AND your guests have everything they need. Their accommodations are top notch, and all of our guests couldn’t stop raving about the venue and how beautiful it was and how attentive & kind the staff were. If you’re looking for an all inclusive wedding venue, look no further! 💌🎉

AMAZING!! AWESOME !!! BEAUTIFUL!! My Husband and I got married at The Lodges June 2022. We decided this is the place !! We got engaged here last year and wanted to get married here .. We had a beautiful wedding down by the lake , decorated nicely with the water in the background under the arch. What a fairytale wedding. We even had The Horse and Carriage ride around the lake. We had a small wedding with Family and Friends. Beth was amazing from the beginning!! She listened and understood what we were wanting and fulfilled every little detail for us !! We live so far away that communicating with her was very easy, she even went out of her way to let us know small details that we didn’t even think of. Beth helped us from beginning to end. Our bridal room was convenient and so nice to get ready in. ( what a plus ). We all stayed at the lodges for the week and enjoyed the property and the delicious food !! Hats off to the Chef .. delicious Fish and Steak !! Yum !! The meals were absolutely amazing.. The details in our reception room were perfect !! Love the twinkle lights and the rustic look that we were looking for .. The staff at the lodges are so caring and helpful. They go out of their way to help you with anything!! Thank you !! The lodges was a blessing and we will definitely be back !! Perfect Wedding !! Perfect Staff , and you were awesome Beth !! Thank you for all your hard work and making us the happiest couple ever !!

We have nothing but great things to say about The Lodges at Gettysburg! Beth and her team made our day a dream. They listen to your every need and make your dreams come true. When we first saw the property, we knew that we would be saying our vows down by the lake. The amenities are perfect for small or large weddings. We had our welcome dinner, ceremony, and reception onsite. The food was amazing, the packages are fairly priced, the lodging was very accommodating for our out of town guests, the views are tranquil, and the staff is beyond helpful. We never had a doubt that our day would be short of amazing.

My husband and I got married at the Lodges in January 2022 and had the most amazing winter wedding. The Lodges exceeded our expectations by far. The grounds are beautiful and perfect for pictures (especially in the winter). Beth is amazing!! From the day we toured the Lodges till the day we got married she was super helpful with everything we needed and answering all our questions. The reception room is amazing and the perfect place to personalize with whatever your wedding vibe is. The Lodges offers an exceptional winter wedding package that includes so much and completely takes the stress out of coordinating with multiple different vendors. Plus, the food was amazing!! The Lodges (cabins) on site are super nice and extremely convenient to stay the night before and the night of your wedding and great for guests to stay in as well! The Lodges is the best wedding venue in Gettysburg, PA. they will help you make the wedding of your dreams become a reality! Book them as your venue-- you won't be disappointed!

We are blessed that in choosing the Lodges at Gettysburg for our venue, we found Beth, Kayla, and Bob! We are still in awe when we look back on everything they did for us to help prepare our wedding. Their flexibility, attention to detail, and experience in the industry are just a few things that stand out about our experience with the Lodges. Our coordinators, Beth and Kayla were prompt in their response times and did everything in their power to help us save money. The Lodges caterer, Great American caterers, owned by Bob, was fantastic! The portion sizes were great for our PA dutch family, and the food was a hit. Overall, the best thing we did was choose the Lodges for our wedding venue!

The Lodges at Gettysburg proved to be the perfect place for our wedding reception. The view from the Lodges made us fall for the venue and we were glad that we hosted the event here. It was a great experience from beginning itself, as Beth helped and guided us at every step to keep our event within the budget and yet have the best experience. Luckily for us, the fall colors were at its peak on the day of our event and it looked gorgeous. Our event manager Matia and other staff members were really helpful and ensured that the event was organized in a smooth manner. Another great feature at the venue were the lodges (rooms), which were really spacious, comfortable and artistic. Nona assisted with all our guests reservations, and we did not even had to look into it. Everything at the Lodges was well managed and executed. Only downside was that due to Covid-19, breakfast and lunch was not available at the venue. The Lodges at Gettysburg undoubtedly provides the perfect gateway to host your wedding and would strongly recommend it to my family and friends.

Planning a wedding from AZ was not the easiest thing to do but having Beth, Kayla, and vendors from The Lodges preferred vendor list made all the difference. We looked through a few venues online, but quickly knew this was the place for us. It felt comfortable from the pictures alone and we love the area. Our vendors and Lodge staff pulled together to make our wedding experience exactly what we wanted. We were able to visit the venue a few months prior to the wedding and it just confirmed everything we hoped for. We had our ceremony inside and everything looked great. If you can schedule yours during some warmer weather the outside ceremony space couldn't be more perfect. Might not be for everyone but we found it beautiful. The separate cocktail hour space had the perfect vibe and we were able to join our guests before introductions. That brings me to the bartender. If you didn't know what you wanted, you found out pretty quickly as he seemed to know that if you wanted a cranberry vodka that just meant you haven't tried an upside down pineapple something or other. Everyone enjoyed his skills and professionalism. Now for the reception. The vendors have worked together multiple times which made things work without everyone coming to us for questions all night. The meals were very tasty and got many thumbs up from our guests. You will see highly decorated reception room photos online but this room doesn't need much to make it look beautiful. We didn't have flowers on tables and only had our DJ's effects plus some extra touches that our families pulled together. The Lodges provides centerpieces that have just enough character and charm to get the job done. Keep it simple, save some money, and let the room do the work. It really did feel comfortable and classy. Our package included a sparkler send off that The Lodges organized completely and coordinated with our photographer. Perfect way to almost end the evening and get some cool photos. I say almost because our package also included a bonfire from 8pm-10pm. Some guests headed for their lodges but many gathered around the fire to share stories and enjoy some coffee and hot chocolate. Even though it was weather-permitting and there was slight drizzle, The Lodges made it happen. We said our good nights and headed to the Michigan Lodge for our wedding night which was also part of the package for one night. Loved this lodge!! All our guests stayed at several lodges on the property and we got to see most of them. There are several different configurations that make it easy for families to share different spaces. Some had 3 rooms with multiple sleeping options in each. The lodges have a lodge atmosphere. Might see a bug or two and maybe every corner didn’t get the white glove treatment but they were cleaner than some of the rooms in my home. No issues at all with cleanliness and everything worked. Plenty of hot water and these really cool electric fireplaces. Almost forgot…the standard grooms room where we were supposed to get ready was being remodeled so we were given the upgrade room which had a pool table and some other touches that made that time a little easier to relax before the ceremony. The bride's room had the same comfort and class to provide for all those perfect wedding pics. A few extra touches is all that is needed to give it your own personality and flare. Make this venue your spot and you can rest easy that your wedding day will turn out amazing.

We had our ceremony and reception at the Lodges. They were FANTASTIC! The Lodges took care of so many details, coordinated the day (Thanks, Lisa!!), connected us with other vendors, had AMAZING food, and was all around the perfect venue. We cannot say enough good things about the Lodges, Beth, and Lisa. We loved working with them and are so glad we had our wedding there!

We got married at the lodges in October. It is definitely a beautiful place. All our guest said how much they liked it and said how nice of a place it was. A couple things I was not a fan of was a lot of things I said I wanted when I first met to look at the venue they changed. when I came in to talk about the wedding closer to the time they told me what I wanted I could not do. Also the night before the wedding we did rent the two big rooms 8 person each one for the girls and one for the boys in the wedding. These room we would say were not the cleanest. Lots of spider webs and bugs in the room. The day of the wedding was very crazy and when one of my girl went to find the day of coordinator they said she was not there and also kind of gave her an attitude. The coordinator did not show up till 1 pm and she had things we needed for our photos. After the wedding we ended up getting rushed to hurry up and get in and seated to be able to eat. When they told us to go eat me and my husband went to get food and it was not even ready. We had to wait another 15-20 minutes. I feel like we could have took more photos or just had more time to just take a break before having to walk into the reception. It was a nice place but very rushed and not everything that I would have wanted it to be.

Could not have asked for a better wedding venue. My husband and I fell in love with the Lodges when we first visited in 2019 - ballroom is beautiful; cabins on site make for an incredibly low-maintenance weekend for guests to relax and hang out; rustic touches were perfect; and nearly everything was included, from bar to catering to a day-of wedding coordinator. (Seriously, the day-of coordinator inclusion is rare and wonderful - especially because they REALLY know what they are doing at the Lodges!). When COVID threw all plans for a wrench, our decision to go with the Lodges was only further validated - they worked with us through two reschedulings and pulled off the most perfect "belated reception."

Everything about the Lodges was absolutely amazing! We looked at several venues and chose the Lodges for our Sep 5th 2021 wedding ceremony because they offered everything we needed, on-site, for our event and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. I think this is one of the most important things to consider when planning an event. We loved the setting and the rustic elegance. We visited Gettysburg many times and never knew The Lodges existed. Truly a hidden gem. I have to say the on-site Lodging for the guests were absolutely perfect and the Bride and Groom's suite was gorgeous. The Wedding Event Package included your Bride and Groom suite for your wedding night, spa service credit for hair and make-up, bride and groom's room for day of dressing/ preparations, table settings, linens, your wedding cake of choice if selected from the preferred vendor list, champagne toast, and your wedding coordinator, Beth, who was extremely accommodating from the start. She promptly answered my million questions and was always pleasant and helpful. THANK YOU BETH FOR BEING THE BEST WEDDING COORDINATOR!!! We planned our wedding during COVID and selected all of vendors from their preferred vendors list without meeting them in person and they were all amazing!!! We included the Horse drawn Carriage Ride and the Doves for Love, and this truly made our wedding magically, despite the off and on rain. Lisa, our day of coordinator, was awesome in pulling this off! THANK YOU LISA FOR MAKING THIS HAPPEN!!! We also had many compliments on just what a beautiful wedding it was, from the WOW reception room, compliments to the Chef for the absolutely amazing crab dip appetizer, the delicious entrees, and compliments to the cake baker for the Best Cake Ever!!! The staff at at the Lodges also made a Special Signature Drink at my request and was a hit and complimented by many guests! I can't say enough good things about the Lodges. It was truly an absolutely great day and the staff helped make this happen!! THANK YOU FOR HELPING TO MAKE THIS THE BEST DAY EVER!!! We definitely will be back again and possibly for our anniversary. We highly recommend the Lodges for your Wedding Venue!!!

We fell in love with The Lodges as soon as we arrived. Not only is it a beautiful venue but Beth was warm and welcoming from the start. We had originally planned to get married in December of 2022, but when a job opportunity presented itself on the west coast my now husband and I decided to get married in September of 2021 before we moved. The Lodges not only made it possible to plan a wedding in three months during a pandemic but they made the experience enjoyable. Beth and her entire team were responsive and extremely accommodating. Lisa was our day of coordinator who was also wonderful and helped the day go so smoothly. I could not have imagined a more perfect day or place to get married!!

Perfect wedding venue!! We had planned our wedding during COVID which was a scary thought - but Beth, Denise and the whole staff at the lodges always made us feel we were in good hands. Throughout the planning Beth was literally always available. I think I emailed her 29472 times a day and she was always ready to answer questions and help with any planning details. She coordinated with all our vendors with ease and also helped with all the booking of our large guest list. From the couples night tasting, to the free cake, great décor and overall service it was top notch. All of our guests loved the wedding. I would recommend this venue to anyone. It provided the perfect space for the whole weekend. The lodges were clean and comfortable. The food was also incredible. Thank you all so much for being the best host for our wedding!! <3

I cannot begin to express how happy I am with everything that the Lodges at Gettysburg did for us. My husband and I booked the Lodges as our venue in June 2020 for our October 2021. From booking, Beth was there the entire way to help us plan out our day and answer questions for us! Beth provided us with a list of preferred vendors and we picked all of our vendors from the list! Everyone was amazing and the Lodges also offers a spa credit when purchasing a reception package! We had most of our family and wedding party stay at the lodges on property for the wedding weekend which made the experience so great since we were able to hang out with everyone before, during, and after our celebration. At the reception, the food was SO GOOD and all of our guests are still talking about it! The service and staff were all so friendly and helpful and we really felt loved and special on our day. They made us feel at home and it felt more special than your typical wedding venue. We absolutely loved our day and I couldn't have imagined going anywhere else! Beth, thank you so, so much for everything you did for us and thank you to your wonderful team! We will definitely be back to stay soon!

Before going on venue tours I had done extensive research online to find a venue that matched all of our criteria-woodsy, decently affordable within our budget, overnight lodging that was not a hotel, allowed our dog onsite, and not too far from 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!!

Our daughter spied The Lodges at Gettysburg when looking for a reception venue near her wedding at Mount St Mary's; as many times as we've visited Gettysburg, we never knew this was here; a true hidden gem! Beth is amazing; she helps plan your 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!

We looked at multiple venues for our wedding and happened to stumble across the lodges after a recommendation from someone I work with. Beth and the entire team at the lodges made not only the planning much less stressful but the day absolutely 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!

The Lodges at Gettysburg was absolutely amazing to work with! Our wedding was on May 8th, 2021. Beth Senseney was incredible at keeping us in the loop with all the planning, we also live an hour and a half away and she had no problem finalizing 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.

Beth, Denise, and The Lodges staff were absolutely amazing!!! Planning our wedding was difficult due to COVID and guest comfort but Beth was accommodating, communicative, and always available! We had to make last minute changes to our seating chart 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!!!

When we were faced with a last minute need to change venues, Beth and the entire Lodges Staff responded with, “Of course”! They listened attentively, and were supportive and creative in making our wedding exactly what we dreamed of- and, they made 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.

I wouldn't change a thing about our wonderful wedding day at the Lodges. From the lodging on site, to the decor, to the kind staff, it couldn't have been more perfect. With Covid being a stress, Beth made our day possible and absolutely made every 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!

This venue was absolutely amazing for our ceremony and our reception! The outside ceremony space made for gorgeous pictures and the inside ballroom was breathtaking! My coordinators, Beth and Lisa, were both fantastic in making sure everything 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!

Wow I'm not even sure where to start! All around wonderful experience. 10/30/20 covid bride! Beth was wonderful from the beginning. We fell in love with the Lodges back Dec 2019, we were able to have a week to decide if this was the place we 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!
