(We are ending with all rentals Dec 31, 2025-just too old!) Nestled in the foothills of Catoctin National Park (home of the Presidential Retreat Camp David), this home is near Gettysburg and other historic locations.
It is not just a cabin in the woods—it is a home that took two years of great carpentry and masonry work.
This historic (circa 1860) log home was relocated and rebuilt, piece by piece, in 2003. A new addition contains a kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms and sunroom.
Located on the historic "Saint Elizabeth" (circa 1745) farm property, 1500 feet from our farmhouse, the cabin was remodeled as a luxury, upscale guesthouse, using the finest materials and craftsmanship, including handmade pieces by owner and resident wood-maker, Bill Eyler.
Cheerful and cozy, there is nothing 'rough' about this home. It boasts great views and privacy and is only minutes from food markets, restaurants, and countless activities, from hiking and skiing to ghost tours, wineries, and Civil War monuments.
This is a property for the discriminating traveler who desires the highest quality. Please look for the blue mailboxes and gristmill "wheel" at the entrance to the property.
We attempt to make your stay as comfortable as possible, and you will always find this home in top condition and working order. Please visit with us and give us your thoughts—we know they will be happy ones.
All towels and linens are supplied, and the kitchen is fully stocked.

Please note: The floorplan for this house is that of an old farmhouse--see floorplan under photos. You must go through one BR to access another on the upper and lower floors. We do not have a half bath on the main floor. We also have a THREE-DAY MINIMUM STAY in the Summer season. No parties unless approved in advance.
Located in Thurmont, this cabin is in the city center and in the mountains. Celebration Cellars Winery and Monterey Country Club are worth checking out if an activity is on the agenda, while those wishing to experience the area's natural beauty can explore Frank Bentz Pond Fish Management Area and Cunningham Falls State Park. Traveling with kids? Consider Thurmont Park, or check out an event or a game at Knott Athletic Recreational and Convocational Complex. Be sure to check out the area's animals with activities such as game walks and birdwatching.
