Riding the GAP/C&O Trails, we needed a place to stay in Oldtown. We arrived on a very rainy cold day and Rachel was willing to shuttle us, if needed. Her place was the perfect respite with a covered porch for our bikes and delicious cookies on arrival. The modern updated home was warm, super clean, with everything we needed. We doordashed dinner and had a great night sleep. Rachel was very responsive, helpful and easy to communicate with when needed.

The Old Town guest house was just as described. Everything we needed was available. I had a little trouble using the keypad to get in but the host answered the second I called and was able to get me in quickly. I usually have a little trouble sleeping away from home but I slept like a baby! We would definitely stay again!

Peaceful getaway

A fantastic place to stay in the Oldtown/Cumberland area. The house is super cute and very convenient to Oldtown and the C&O Canal, and it’s an easy drive into Cumberland if needed. Everything was peaceful and the countryside is very pretty. Also our host was great; no problems. Would stay here again!
