They even do a bonfire on the weekend nights with smores!! The location is set back in a secluded area away from the main resort and areas of deep creek, so it's a nice refuge but still close enough to everything. Every aspect of our stay was surely above my expectations. I would definitely recommend for couples or anyone looking for a nice comfortable place to stay in deep creek.

Not hello, welcome, thanks for staying with us or anything even close. Parked our two valuable bikes in the garage and told us that the door would only be closed to secure the bikes once everyone was in for the evening, in other words didn't care about securing our hard earned valuables/property and/or didn't want to spend the quarter on electricity to open it and close it a couple of times. When asked if any luggage had been delivered, she responded "I don't know, I don't care about or pay attention to luggage"! Next, we received our elementary school style stern lecture on how everything worked around the house. Told us we got no breakfast because we were leaving too early (7am) and that we had screwed up by not making the ride into Cumberland, as that was the best day. After my shower, my threadbare towel nearly tore as I dried off. Stay elsewhere unless snarky and aloof service on the cheap is your thing!

From the moment we arrived, it was obvious that Mo has thought of absolutely everything. Our room was beautifully appointed, warm and comfortable, with an incredibly comfy bed and wonderful linens - which were VERY much appreciated after a full day of riding the GAP! Every little detail was there: a fan, a noise machine, charging cables, and all those thoughtful touches you don't realize you need until you need them. The entire house is absolutely beautiful. It's so tastefully decorated while still feeling warm, welcoming and homey. You can tell how much thought and care has gone into creating a place where guests can truly relax. And then there was breakfast! Absolutely amazing. Mo is such a warm and friendly host and made us feel genuinely welcome throughout our stay. The GAP biking community and the town of Meyersdale are incredibly lucky to have the Inn on Main - and we feel just as lucky that we were able to get a reservation. This is one of those special places you remember long after you leave. We will absolutely be back.

My family and I planned a special trip out here to do the rail car. I bought my partner this…read moreexperience as his Christmas gift. Each year, I try to find something unique vs just a thing that he wouldn't use. It's an easy drive from DC, and the town of Frostburg is so adorable. We have two 5 year olds, and the staff was very friendly and explained how the tour would be structured. My kids just loved pushing the pedals and seeing the scenery pass by. For this first outing, I ended up booking one of the shorter tours, going with the Woodcock Hollow Express. It was the perfect option, especially with younger kids. It was entertaining enough, without them getting bored. It's one way, and man, our car went fast! I sat in the back, while my partner sat in the front of the car. It takes coordination on braking, which he clearly needed some work with! But we did manage to slow down before hitting the other guests riding in front of us. Once you reach the end of the track, the tour has a bus waiting, which will transport you back to the train station. The driver gave us some great tips and history as we rode the 15-20 minute ride back. Overall, a fantastic experience. I would totally do it again and try one of their other longer tours, especially as our kids get older.

We took a day trip to Frostburg specifically to do railbiking with Tracks and Yaks. I saw a video…read moreon social media and I was sold! We booked the Helmstetter Hotshot trip about a week in advance (when I checked the morning of our ride, it was sold out - so book early!). The price is per car (not per person), making it a reasonably priced excursion. We booked a two-person cart, which was $110 in total after fees (comes out to about $55 per person). There is also a four-seater which comes out to about $50 per person. We booked a 3pm ticket and were still en route to Frostburg around 2:50pm. Tracks and Yaks kindly called us to make sure we were still coming (we were about 2 minutes away). The follow-up is appreciated! We were glad to know that the rail bikes weren't leaving without us. Once we arrived, we had to scan a QR code to fill out a waiver. Their depot center has indoor restrooms and a small gift shop. We were given a quick safety briefing, were directed to our rail bike, buckled up, they oriented us to the brake system and had us do a quick practice run (they said no bumper cars) and we were off! Our car had a handbrake for each rider; another car had one handbrake lever for the entire car (that one went fast!). Our car also had little zipper pouches to secure small personal effects. There was also a crate attached to the back of the seat to store larger items at your own risk. I ended up putting my bag in the crate - I didn't find any crazy bumps along the way that put my bag in danger of flying out. You're required to stay seated and buckled for the whole trip. You also have to make sure your feet stay on the pedals or rest on the front or the car (if you can reach) - you don't want your feet dragging on the rocks or brush. The track is shady, so it did feel cool at times. We went on a perfect summer day, but I imagine it being a lot colder in the fall and winter (or when it's rainy... it is rain or shine). When the rail bikes pick up speed (12-15 mph), there is a strong breeze, so hold on to your hats! The car in front of us actually had one of their hats fly off and into the tracks. The staff was kind enough to pick it up off the tracks and returned it to the owner at the end of the trip (but returns are not guaranteed... this was a bright white hat lying in the middle of the tracks. Other personal items might not be so obvious). You're allowed to take pictures, but they warn you to have a death grip on your phone. The reason I'm giving four stars instead of five is because they said it was a guided rail bike tour, but there wasn't a whole lot of guiding. The guiding is more along the lines of directing traffic (we do go over a couple crossings, so the staff are positioned to make sure it's clear to proceed). There was only one pause at a scenic spot to briefly explain what we were looking at, to point out the small town and state border, and advertise other day trips offered by the company. The guide also explained the markers on the trail and mentioned the brush tunnel that we'd be going through. I would say the brush tunnel was the main event of the ride. The ride ended shortly after the tunnel, around a curve. At that point, we got off the rail bikes and climbed into the van waiting for us. The return shuttle was a missed opportunity to be a tour guide - our driver was soft spoken and only spoke when spoken to, and only to the riders closest to the front. I wouldn't describe the route as super scenic. I was expecting to see more mountain views, but it was mostly greenery. It was more of a ride through the woods. I imagine it being prettier in the fall to see the fall foliage. It was still a fun experience riding on the tracks and pedaling somewhat (it's mostly downhill, so you don't really need to pedal, only in a few flat areas). The Helmstetter Hotshot has approximately a two-hour duration. The two-hour duration includes the travel time from Cumberland back to Frostburg. Bikes started leaving the depot around 3:15pm and we arrived to the end of the track around 4:30pm. It was about a 15-20 minute drive back to the Frostburg train depot. We were finished and headed to dinner before 5pm, so the two-hour estimate was accurate. Staff were fun and friendly (don't forget to bring cash to tip at the end). They helped to snap a picture on our phone once we got situated and before we started rolling away. This isn't an experience to do every week, but it's fun enough to want to do more than once. This activity is recommended for all ages. I'm now obsessed with rail biking and want to do it everywhere and anywhere it's offered!

A Mixed Bag at Best -- Disappointing Value and Execution…read more I paid $150 for the murder mystery train ride, and while I had a few expectations going in, the experience left a lot to be desired. The Good: The single bright spot of the evening was that--traveling alone--I was seated at a four-person dinner table with wonderful guests who made the night bearable. The chocolate cake for dessert was also quite nice. The Murder Mystery Show: If you are hoping for something engaging and even a little dramatic, you won't find it here. The performance was completely all over the place, making it hard to follow what was actually happening. It felt entirely improvised, leaning heavily into a corny brand of comedy rather than a true mystery. Logistically, the setup is a nightmare: actors, servers, and guests were constantly bumping into one another just to navigate the narrow aisles. The icing on the cake? One of the actresses spent most of the performance hissing, screeching, and shouting--likely spitting into nearby food in the process. The Food: Considering the price tag, I expected better. Dinner was just okay, landing at a solid 2.5 out of 5 stars. I ordered the steak, which was aggressively average, but my salad came with an unwelcome bonus: a hair. The Sunset Ride (Bonus Gripe): $60 I also participated in the sunset ride the following night, and it was equally underwhelming. First, the 7:00 PM start time is simply too late to catch a proper sunset. Second, any lingering sunlight is entirely blocked by the dense forestry cascading along the route. For a three-hour excursion, about two hours of it was spent riding a cold train in total pitch blackness--feeling more like a mundane daily commute than a romantic evening out. I sat in the dome car which was tight and cold, the space was so small it was impossible not to feel like everyone was in your conversation and you in theirs. The Verdict: Ultimately, I wouldn't recommend this train experience to anyone for any reason. But hey, if you don't believe me, feel free to find out for yourself.
