fyi - this house is not a canal quarters lockhouse operated by the c & o canal trust, it is privately owned
cell service can be sketchy down here at the river, all depends on your carrier/weather conditions, etc I have no issues, but if you do, wi-if calling and text works. and the internet works great!
roku for tv You will need to use your own passwords for Netflix, YouTube, etc.
fyi for timid drivers : the house is high on a hill above the river, one side of the driveway has a steep drop off down to the road The driveway is tight, but there is room for 4 cars, you will need to make 3 point turns in order to turn around.
we also have access to a local farm if you wish to stable your horses to ride along the canal or battlefield , i can put you in touch with them to discuss fees They will allow you to park your trailer at the farm. (you need permission/permit for the battlefield)
