It's the location. Close to Thomas with all its artsy and antique shops and the Purple Fiddle. Yet Westwood is all about privacy. It's a great place to explore the Cannan Valley and Thomas/Davis area. There's a lot to do here, world class mountain biking, x-country skiing, hiking, fishing, hunting, bird watching. The Blackwater Canyon rails to trail is at the bottom of our driveway. There is the Mountain State Brewing Company, Sirrianis Pizza, Hellbenders Burritos and Stumptown Ales all with a 3 mile drive. If your visiting between March and November, by all means, bring your mountain or road bike. December thru March bring your skis or snowboard. There's always something to do.
