Fast becoming a bedroom community to Frederick MD, this area offers some of the most affordable housing in Frederick County.  You will enjoy the country charm of the open pastures and mountain views.  Located off Route 15 north of Frederick, you have an easy commute (a little more than an hour) to Baltimore and Washington DC.  (By Washingtonians standards)  Home prices are currently range from $185,000 to $995,000 from brand new to historically preserved.

Surrounded by history, you have Gettysburg, PA to the north which has some of the greatest battles in Civil war history.  Tucked away in your back yard hidden in the Catoctin Mountains is Camp David.  Many historical summits took place at Camp David.  You will find plenty of that history documented on the walls of the Cozy Inn, as this is a popular place for the news media when Camp David is occupied.
