Historic Breeches Pocket- Immaculate, Hand-built Log Cabin house- Gettysburg; DC

Nestled in the foothills of Catoctin National Park (home of the Presidential Retreat, Camp David), near the Museum of Civil War Medicine and other historic locations, this is not just a cabin in the woods--it is a home that took two years of great carpentry and masonry work to build, with no expense spared until it was completed. This historic (~1860) log home was relocated and rebuilt, piece by piece, in 2003 with a new kitchen, bathrooms, and custom-painted fireplace. Located on the historic "Saint Elizabeth" property, 1500 feet from our farmhouse, the cabin was remodeled as a luxury, upscale guesthouse, using the finest materials and craftsmanship, including handmade pieces by owner and resident wood-maker, Bill Eyler. Cheerful but cozy, there is nothing 'rough' about this home. Boasting great views and privacy, and is only minutes from food markets, restaurants, and countless activities from hiking and skiing to ghost tours, wineries, and Civil War monuments. This is a property for the discriminating traveler who desires the highest quality. Please look for the blue mailboxes and gristmill "wheel" at the entrance to the property. We do attempt to make your stay as comfortable as possible, and you will always find this home in top condition and working order. Please visit with us and give us your thoughts-- we know they will be happy ones. All towels and linens are supplied, and the kitchen is fully stocked.
