Beautiful, Spacious Historic Victorian Near Ski Liberty
Enjoy the luxury and serene Blue Ridge Summit mountain area in our all-season vacation rental house, close to Ski Liberty Mountain and Camp David, a turn of the century Maryland Victorian house in Cascade, Maryland. This stately 5 bedroom, 2½ bath, later-style Victorian home was built in 1910. It is historic, and has been recently renovated with modern amenities.
This house is a fabulous getaway all year round. Enjoy the cozy fireplace atmosphere during the Fall and Winter and relax in the wicker furniture and wrap around porch in the Spring and Summer. Both bathrooms on the second floor have claw foot tubs, with shower enclosures. Enjoy the serene and private environment with almost 2 peaceful, secluded acres. This home is also great for entertaining. On the first floor, it boasts a newly renovated gourmet kitchen with new cabinets, granite counters, and modern amenities, a renovated half bathroom with marble floor, in addition to the very large living room and dining room with Arts and Crafts style windows and newly finished mahogany hardwood floors throughout the first and second floor. The spacious 5 bedrooms accommodate 12 persons very comfortably. There is also a pull out couch in living room.

This home is also close to Cunningham Falls Maryland State Lake and Park (5000 acres of parkland), Catoctin Mountain National Park (25 miles of hiking trails), Penn Mar State Park, and is just minutes from the High Rock overlook and the home of the Presidential Retreat, Camp David. The countryside and mountain views in this area are outstanding. Stay in one of the most rustic, mountain areas of the east coast, just one hour from the DC and Baltimore areas.

This home is well situated off the beaten path, ½ mile off Route 550 on Rowland Hill Road. Pennsylvania is only steps away from Route 550 up the mountain. The town of Cascade is close by with a local grocery store to serve your needs. Several restaurants, including, the Carriage House in Emmitsburg (8 miles away) and several restaurants in Waynesboro (6 minutes away), and Frederick (20 minutes away) offer the finest menus in the area. The Blue Ridge Summit mountain area has been, and still is, a common vacation area and get away of persons/families wanting a getaway from the Washington/Baltimore and other city areas. Presidents since Dwight Eisenhower have vacationed near this house, at Camp David, and families have vacationed in the Blue Ridge Summit area for decades.

Wonderful property! Kitchen is very well stocked with everything you need to make a huge meal. Lovely large rooms and porch. We enjoyed every moment of our stay.
What a gem this is! Our host was responsive and created a welcoming space on last-minute notice. Our family is already planning another reunion here next year!
The house was perfect it was comfy. The decor takes you back in time while at the same time having all the modern conveniences. It was a lovely get-a-way
Absolutely beautiful home in a quiet, peaceful area. The house was spotless, with every amenity and convenience you'd need. The owner was readily available via phone (although we didn't need anything) and even left us a bottle of wine and snacks. I'll definitely rent this house again the next time I'm in the area.
The house is beautiful. Very quiet and peaceful! House is fully stocked with anything you could possibly need. If ever in the area again, would love to stay again. Came with 6 adults and it was spacious, roomy and comfortable
This property is not only spacious, accommodating, historic and beautiful, the owner is first-rate. I’ve rented this gone three times, and each time Marianne is responsive and kind.
We loved our stay! We felt so comfortable! Our property manager was excellent. The house was amazing! We love old houses and it had everything we needed.
This was a wonderful place to stay! The outside was a bit deceiving (except the porch). The inside was exceptional! We will be hoping to stay here again for sure!!!
This was a lovely choice for our ladies' weekend! We had a group of 8 of us. Everyone had their own bed and the rooms were big enough that even those of us sharing rooms had plenty of room. The living room, kitchen, and dining room provided wonderful places to hang out together. Kitchen is well equipped. House is a bit older, so you have to slam the upstairs bathroom doors to get them to close, but not a big deal. Very spacious!
We stayed here on a snowy weekend and loved it. Beautiful house with plenty of bedrooms and a nicely updated kitchen. It had all the amenities we needed and was very comfortable. Will definitely come back!
This place is the best, and the host is absolutely top-notch. I am a return customer to this property, and I will return again when I visit the beautiful Catoctin Mountains next fall. If you are looking for a wonderful place with quick access to western Maryland and southern Pennsylvania, this is your smartest choice.
Beautifully restored mountain home. Plenty of room for all & great wrap around porch. Renovated kitchen is well stocked . Marianne very responsive & easy to work with. Highly recommend
This is a beautiful home and was very clean, spacious, and well-equipped. It is true to the pictures and perfect for a family or a group getaway. The owner was very helpful and quick to respond to any questions I had. Was definitely a pleasurable weekend and we really enjoyed our stay there. Thanks for hosting us!
This location is close enough to Gettysburg as well.
This house was beautiful inside. Everything was included such as sheets, towels, paper towels, toilet paper and appliances. And the owners even left a welcome gift! Plenty of room for my family of 11. We had a great time!
We all commented all weekend that this was the most thoughtfully stocked and set up home rental we’ve ever stayed in. The house is gorgeous and huge—more than enough space for 3 families with kids. Kids loved playing in the yard and the vibe is a scoooooch haunted/spooky, which the kids also loved.
Spacious Victorian Perfect for large family gathering
Living, dining, and kitchen spaces were large and very well appointed. We had an extended family stay. 5 bedrooms with multiple sleeping options was ideal. We cooked a lot and the kitchen was extremely well stocked. Floors were not level, but original and charming. Beds were too soft for some of us.
