Whether you are visiting from DC, VA, PA, or WV, our property serves as the ideal home base for your next great outdoor journey.
1. Direct Access to the Historic C&O Canal
The primary draw for many of our guests is our proximity to the C&O Canal National Historical Park. Staying in our C&O Canal Retreat Cabins puts you just moments away from one of the most preserved historical sites in the country. The towpath is a dream for cyclists, runners, and those who enjoy a peaceful stroll through the woods. As you explore the canal, you are walking through layers of American history, seeing the locks and structures that once moved goods across the region. For detailed trail maps and visitor information, the National Park Service provides everything you need to plan a day of exploration.

3. The Majestic Potomac River: The Nation’s River
The Potomac River, often called “The Nation’s River,” is a vital waterway for history, recreation, and wildlife. Flowing 383 miles from the Appalachian Mountains to the Chesapeake Bay, it forms the natural borders for Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, and Washington D.C. Guests at our C&O Canal Retreat Cabins can enjoy the beauty of this mighty river daily. It offers incredible opportunities for hiking along the banks, paddling through calm waters, or simply birdwatching as the current flows by. It is a living piece of history that continues to shape our local landscape. You can check the Maryland DNR Fisheries for the best local spots to enjoy the water.

Nature lovers, keep your binoculars ready! A Bald Eagle visits the farm often, soaring high above the trees or perched near the river.
