About this property

Scenic Getaway with Private Indoor Pool/Hot Tub on the GAP trail

Escape to Mount Savage Farm in the Allegheny Mountains of Western Maryland. Relax and appreciate the serenity of an 80 acre farm overlooking the small town of Mount Savage, MD.

The farm is a destination in itself with an indoor heated swimming pool, outdoor hot tub, gas fireplace, outdoor brick patio with grill and fire pit, and plenty of space to wander, find solitude, and watch the wildlife. Behind the house and up past the pond, is direct access to the Greater Alleghany Passage (GAP) hike and bike trail. Situated at mile marker 11 of the 150 mile trail, there is ample opportunity to hike, bike and enjoy the scenic views on one of the premier trails of the east coast. Check out the opportunities at https://gaptrail.org

The spacious historic brick home was built in the 1820s and has a classic feel. There are 5 bedrooms including one family style room with a queen and trundle bed, 3 full baths, a family room and a formal living room with a piano, a well-appointed kitchen, a dining room that seats 12, and an office/sunroom on the second floor with spectacular views. This is a brand new listing and we are currently updating and rearranging, making it more usable and comfortable for our guests. The layout of the house will stay the same so the current pictures give you an excellent overview.

For railroad enthusiasts, the Western Maryland Scenic Railroad shares the GAP trail and passes through the property on its way from Cumberland, MD to Frostburg. Be sure to take a ride on the railroad and look for Mount Savage Farm as you pass by! For more adventure, do some railbiking - pedaling along the steel railroad tracks with your friends and family.

For those who like to venture, there is much to see and do within an hour driving distance of the farm. This mountainous region of western Maryland and Pennsylvania is home to ten state parks with expansive views, hiking trails, white water rafting and lakes for boating and fishing. Wisp and Seven Springs Resorts offer skiing in the winter and outdoor adventures such as zip lining and mountain coasters in the summer. Rocky Gap Casino is a short drive down the highway.

The Flight 93 Memorial is located 37 miles away across the Pennsylvania state line. Also in Pennsylvania, Frank Lloyd Wright’s Fallingwaters, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is just over an hour’s drive.

For dining and shopping, the quaint town of Frostburg is less than ten minutes away and has several excellent restaurants and breweries. It is home to Frostburg State University, making this an ideal get away for families coming to visit. A little further down the road is historic Cumberland, MD. This is where the GAP Trail begins and the 184 mile C&O Canal towpath trail from Washington D.C. ends.

For everyone's security, we have three cameras. One is located on the side porch overlooking the driveway, one is located looking out the back of the house and one is in the pool area.

Perfect place for family and friends.
Mount Savage Farm is an amazing place. It has everything a family or group of friends could ask for in a vacation home. The amenities were wonderful, especially the large indoor pool. The home itself is large and has so much character. We also enjoyed exploring the 84 acres the property sits on. The owners of Mount Savage Farm were great. They went above and beyond to help make our stay truly enjoyable.

Wonderful mountain retreat
This property and grounds are stunningly beautiful! It is a family dream to have all this space and fun things to do. Loved walking the trail. Loved the pool and hot tub Plenty of toys for kids and tons of pool toys The kitchen and whole house is equipped with anything you may need The owner Pat Reeder was wonderful with communicating with us and made sure we had all we would need or want! We must come back when the leaves are on the trees or in the fall when the leaves are changing.

Family Time Together
I don't know where to start in this review so let's sum it up as off-the-charts wonderful! When selecting a home, it's hard to accommodate the interests of children, teens and adults but Mt. Savage Farm met everyone's needs and wants. There are indoor toys and games, books, outdoor games and great pool toys. The hot tub was a big hit. But the ultimate delight was the pool and its surrounds; with several sitting areas, tv and bar area, swimmers and non-swimmers didn't want to leave this space.The house had every need covered and the kitchen was very well equipped. It was clean and so very comfortable. This house was hard to leave. Lastly, Pat and Dan are great hosts; they will answer any question quickly and you know they want you to have a great time in their home. We want to come back!

2nd stay at Mount Savage
It’s another pleasant stay and hangout with family and friends. We got to explore the surroundings a little bit more this time. There is plenty of things to keep the kids occupied. Great place for our annual staycation. Pat and Dan are great hosts as usual. Thanks

We LOVED our stay!
The first thing you notice when you drive up is how absolutely beautiful everything is...the property and the views are terrific. And the inside is immaculate and great. Pat left gorgeous flowers and a welcome basket that were much appreciated. Pat and Dan are two of the nicest people you would ever want to meet, and both were incredibly responsive. Pat was extremely attentive to messages we sent before, during, and after our stay. You could not ask for better owners! The house is outstanding, with large bedrooms and a family room in addition to a big living room. The beds are very comfortable and both the pool and the kitchen are just incredible. You will absolutely love using the hot tub, too! The kitchen is large and has everything you could possibly use. Indeed, our experience was that the owners had thought of everything and added special touches to make the stay even more enjoyable. In our case, the stay had two groups of family members (one at the start of the week, and the second for the last part of the week) that included a four-month-old baby and a 98-year-old great grandfather. The fact that the house has a bedroom on the main floor was particularly helpful since Grandpa does not do steps well at all. The instruction book left by the owners is clear and concise. And the owners provided sticks for making s'mores at the fire pit, which was a real treat. Everyone just loved this place! You will, too.
