Overnight in Abbottstown

When looking for a place to stay near Gettysburg, we came across Abbottstown on the map and couldn’t miss the chance to stay there. Abbottstown was founded in 1790 by John Abbott and the Old Altland House has been an inn and restaurant since the 1880’s. Our room at the Inn was very nice and the food was delicious! We had a package deal that included dinner so we ate like kings with appetizer, salads, filet mignon, and dessert. We walked the town which took about 15 minutes and searched for Abbott relatives in one of the cemeteries, but no luck. Pennsylvania is dotted all over with these wonderful, charming colonial towns. Wish we could explore all of them!
