Cumberland MD Cabin Rentals

Originally a one-room schoolhouse, the Little Orleans Lodge has been serving the hiker-biker community and outdoor enthusiast since 2001. Nestled between Green Ridge State Forest and the C & O Canal National Historical Park (Mile Marker 141 on the towpath at Fifteen Mile Campground and just five miles west of the Western Maryland Rail Trail.) Little Orleans is the only stopover between Hancock and Cumberland, Maryland. Little Orleans Lodge is located only 1/2 mile from the C & O Canal Towpath and offers a variety of rooms to accommodate all visitors, from the solo hiker-biker to any large group.

Limited public camping and two cabins are available near Green Ridge State Forest and the Potomac River between September and May.

Camp Potomac River Base (CPRB) is a unique opportunity to explore a peaceful float along the Potomac River.

CPRB provides several options for trips lasting various times within two different states, Maryland and West Virginia. Scout units must do safety afloat training prior to the canoe trip. Units must have vehicles with a 2-inch ball hitch capable of towing a canoe trailer. All canoe trip equipment is provided. Scouts simply stay overnight at Camp Potomac and in the morning, hook up the canoes and are on their way. Meet with Camp Potomac Ranger Andy and take the paddles, lifejackets and trip information. All documented trips are within 5 to 20 minutes from Camp Potomac and will last 2 to 8 hours depending on the float to paddle ratio.

Another option that they offer is to provide a packed lunch from a nearby store. Scouts can purchase lunch online for $6 when making reservations. Scout leaders can pick lunches up the night before or the morning of their trip.
