Agreed, When I was a youthful teen, I used to partake in battlefield reinactments there as well as Antietam. I had a 69 beetle and went to both battlefields frequently. I have taken the whole family and showed them as much as I could and I plan on visiting again.
Enjoy Your stay, see the sights, Enjoy the food, Have Fun.
