Beautiful and quiet atmosphere. I loved it. I'm deathly allergic to bees but I wasn't stung ONCE. Lavender ice cream is great, soap is amazing and much needed for me, lemonade was amazinnnnnn, and the staff was sooooo kind. No kids allowed which is a great rule so that the kids don't scream and disturb the peace. I love that they enforced the no kids allowed rule!

His level of expertise and guidance is really second to none. Now that he has opened his own place and gallery, totally renovated the building he is opened in, I have made it a point to take my business to him for a variety of needs. The layout is very open and bright- brand new hardwood flooring and white walls with built ins for pottery and ceramic pieces that are for sale. They also have a small variety of local art and art that Steve himself has done as well. The selection is a bit small due to just opening, but from what he has said there will be shows and more art coming in the next few weeks. I have actually taken two pieces to him today to be matted and framed. Steve is very helpful, genuine, and his quality of work is incredible. Thanks and looking forward to more great work!

The building consists of two stories connected by a stairwell and elevator. The lower level has a range of vehicles dating to the 1910s, all well maintained and affixed with mannequin passengers. The upper level has a kitchen, a restroom, and various airplanes. Plan to spend about an hour and half if you want to read captions or about 30 minutes if you just want to stroll through.

You'd think the "Curator" or "Volunteer" Karen or Carol, can't remember which derivative it is, I think it's Karen............. She pretty much seems to talk bad about Meshach, the Elder, hunter, Frontiersman. I've made two stops in there now, and she seems to just bash this man. she cuts his book down, and bad mouths it like she's the main contributor of the book or all knowing. I understand there are some things that may hyperinflated in the book, but I genuinely believe this frontiersman (my ancestral grandfather) killed and recycled what he shot and put it to good use, and he did kill 100's of fair game in the Wilderness. I almost wonder if this lady is a liberal and she wonders where her meat comes from in the supermarket. Oakland do better. This woman is a wealth of knowledge BUT she seems to have a distain for the Browning line for some reason. She made a comment to me once, stating that she thought it was nuts that Meshach browning would live off the land and he would "put out" his wife and make her live the rugged life like he did ha-ha, uh, you're talking about a period between late 1700's and early 1800's. They did what they had do to survive, and I'd say he did well for what he adapted to and took care of his wife and children. Meshach Browning was the son of British Subaltern (British redcoat junior officer), he was on the same "mission" with his father William Browning and they both were British soldiers under Braddock and George Washington, they were massacred in "Braddock's Defeat", specifically, William and Joshua were part of the skirmish and were corralled to cover fire while the wounded comrades were evacuated with General Braddock and George Washington. Karen says they deserted, half true, they completed, the best they could in their mission while in the middle of being massacred and they all fled and never accomplished the main mission in reaching Fort Duquesne. The soldiers, after the massacre cover and aligned and never completed their hike to fort Duquesne. specifically, William and Joshua Browning went their own way and started their own life after the massacre, they both did what they needed to accomplish and served admirably under George Washington, they bother stayed back to defend the wounded as they were being shot at and attacked by the French and Indians. This woman says they deserted (Joshua and William Browning) no they did not.

An interesting look at how the railroad connected and caused a boom of the small towns of western Maryland. Lots of artifacts and information related to the long-ago razed Deer Park Hotel and other attractions. Next up is the Transportation Museum. A well-varied collection of cars, boats, and memorabilia from the start of Oakland and Garrett County, each with its own story. The weirdest thing there was a gas-powered surfboard that was last registered in 2013. Finally we have the Garrett County museum. Gives a long solid look at the lives of the citizens of Garrett County since it was founded. Each era and population segment has its own room. Lots of information about Drep Creek Lake and the Deer Park Hotel, too. The military room also has a wall dedicated to the county's namesake, a Vietnam era tank landing ship. All of these museums are free, but they do ask for a small donation. Drop a Fin in the bucket. It's worth it to keep local history alive and relevant.
