Historic Town Hill Hotel B&B is located in the scenic mountains of western Maryland. Originally built in early 1916 as a fruit stand, by 1920, it had become a bustling restaurant and hotel. Town Hill was “the first tourist hotel built in the state of Maryland to accommodate the automobile traveler.” Its scenic overlook with an amazing view of three states and seven counties soon became known as the “Beauty Spot of Maryland.” Even after extensive remodeling, the Inn still retains the look of yesteryear with its 10 foot ceilings, original woodwork, and furnishings.
Town Hill Bed & Breakfast is proud to announce its 19th year anniversary. Some days it seems like a hundred years, other days it seems like just yesterday that we bought this old, abandoned building on top of a mountain in western Maryland. Much love, toil, and sweat has transformed it into our beautiful country inn. The hard part is now completed, and we look forward to welcoming all of our friends and acquaintances back.

Originally built to move goods from Washington DC to the west, the Chesapeake & Ohio Canal is now a hub of recreational activity, with hiking, biking, bird watching, horse-back riding and more. Williamsport, MD is its geographical center, and visitors here can experience the Canal first-hand with ranger-led boat rides and towpath tours.

In Hancock, MD, visitors can pick up the Rail Trail, a paved portion that runs alongside the towpath, to Fort Frederick State Park. But first, grab some pie at Weaver’s Restaurant or the Blue Goose Fruit Market & Bakery!
236 miles – Allow 4 hours to drive the byway
Workers who toiled on the Chesapeake & Ohio Canal between 1828 and 1859 could not have imagined that their engineering feat – designed for the sole purpose of speeding up commercial trade – would one day become a hub of outdoor recreational activity. Hiking, biking, bird watching and mule-drawn barge rides are among the many popular pursuits now enjoyed beside this peaceful passage.
During its century of service, the canal worked with a system of 74 lift locks that regulated water levels, allowing boats laden with coal, flour, lumber, grain and produce to be pulled by mule trams walking on an adjacent towpath. Their 184.5-mile journey stretched from the mountains of Western Maryland, through farmland and forest, to the tidewater outskirts of our nation’s capital. Your journey follows this same course, allowing you to make heritage discoveries along each new mile.
The mission of the foundation is to preserve land(s) on which the battle was fought. Nearly 7,000 Union cavalry and light artillery attached Gen. Robert E. Lee’s rear guard of almost 3,000 infantrymen near Williamsport, MD, on the morning and early afternoon of July 14, 1863. Much of the battle was fought approximately two miles from the Falling Waters crossing over the Potomac River. Only 11 days after “Picket’s Charge” in Gettysburg, it is considered the final battle of the Gettysburg Campaign. It is sometimes confused with the unrelated Battle of Falling Waters (Hoke’s Run) in West Virginia two years earlier.
