If you’re planning a glamping trip to Pennsylvania, stop by and wish Drummer Boy Camping Resort a very happy birthday as this glamping location in historic Gettysburg is turning 60 this year! Book a glamping cabin or cottage and enjoy a glamping retreat at this wooded resort. And while there are plenty of activities and events on site, the historic Gettysburg area offers plenty to see.
1. Of course, the number one attraction in Gettysburg is the Gettysburg National Military Park and we can guarantee, even if you’ve been before, you will learn something new with each visit. From the historic battlefield to the museum to the living history events, a visit here is always worth the time. For details, visit https://www.nps.gov/gett/index.htm.
2. The Adams County Pour Tour blends a nice mix of breweries, cideries, distilleries, meaderies and wineries on a self-guided beverage trail tour through downtown Gettysburg as well as the beautiful Pennsylvania countryside. For more information and suggested itineraries visit destinationgettysburg.com/pourtour.
3. The Round Barn is a must see for several reasons – it is one of the only remaining round barn structures left in the US, and it has a wide variety of seasonal fruits, plus jams, jellies, baked goods and crafts, including Amish crafts.
4. Lots of fun facts about the apple, plus all kinds of history and artifacts can be found at the National Apple Museum. There is also a gift shop and a Summer Concert series. For information visit https://www.nationalapplemuseum.com/.
5. Some serious horsing around is on the agenda in the area and activities can include a visit to the Land of Little Horses or a tour of the historic battlefield on horseback. You don’t have to be a kid to enjoy the Land of Little Horses, a performing animal park that has not only miniature horses roaming around but also several shows, a Western Town and a pig colosseum complete with pig races. For details visit landoflittlehorses.com. For a guided horseback tour of the battlefield, check out the tours available through Hickory Hollow Farm (hickoryhollowfarm.com) and choose the one that works best for you!
