Description
Gobblers' Knob, perched on a quiet mountain top at the northern end of the Shenandoah Valley near Berkeley Springs, takes its name from the wild turkeys that roam on the property. This peaceful vacation retreat is conveniently located 100 miles from Washington D.C. and Baltimore, MD; 210 miles from Philadelphia; and 150 miles from Pittsburgh, PA. The secluded log home has been lovingly restored to its 1820's roots. Furnishings include antiques from the 1820 - 1840 period, but modern amenities have been added for comfort and convenience. Boasting a large front porch, the home begs for company to share its breathtaking view of the beautiful surrounding countryside.
