Thurmont Cabin | Historic "BREECHES POCKET" Civil W Era Log House/No rentals after DEC. 31 2025

4 Bedroom Cabin in Thurmont

(We are ending with all rentals Dec 31, 2025-just too old!) Nestled in the foothills of Catoctin National Park (home of the Presidential Retreat Camp David), this home is near Gettysburg and other historic locations.
It is not just a cabin in the woods—it is a home that took two years of great carpentry and masonry work.
This historic (circa 1860) log home was relocated and rebuilt, piece by piece, in 2003. A new addition contains a kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms and sunroom.
Located on the historic "Saint Elizabeth" (circa 1745) farm 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 and cozy, there is nothing 'rough' about this home. It boasts 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 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.

Summary: This beautiful home was built by the owners and is tastefully decorated as well as nicely maintained. The location makes it extremely convenient for day trips to surrounding towns such as Frederick, Harper's Ferry and Gettysburg. The home is comfortable and can easily accommodate a large group. The hosts are very responsive. We enjoyed our stay and would rebook if we were to return to the area.

Summary: Had a great stay. Please make sure to read the fine print about the house set up. The host is honest about it but I booked quickly and didn't notice - you have to walk thru 1 bedroom upstairs to get to the other, and same downstairs. House was nice and clean and had everything we needed. The host was great and even mailed back some items that we accidentally left behind!

Summary: The house and grounds are wonderful. The house is cozy, beautifully furnished, and comfortable. There are plenty of places to spread out in the living room and sunroom as well as several outdoor areas in good weather. We enjoyed happy hour and games on the side deck. The grounds are secluded and beautiful. Highly recommend this property.

Summary: Beautiful history in the home as well as the area. This was a 3 day trip for gal friends to visit and see Gettysburg, PA and Frederick, MD. We spent most of our time enjoying the sitting areas within the home. The weather outside was 90 degrees so we missed out on enjoying the outside spaces for coffee in the a.m. Lovely home. So homey, eclectic and clean. Christine was a great hostess. We missed out on meeting Charles. His hard work on building this beautiful home was evident thru out. was and did not get to
