At the end of my first day backpacking west from Georgetown, this Lockhouse offered up air conditioning, electricity, potable water, a great shower, and a comfortable bed. I highly recommend a stay here if you are passing by.

This was a cute and cozy place. My friends and I decided to stay here for the weekend and it offered a nice place to stay while enjoying some of the history of the C&O Canal. I definitely appreciated that the place does have air conditioning and an enclosed porch. The place had everything we needed. Some of the furniture is old and I did feel that some of the chairs might break while sitting on them.

This is a great place to stay while riding the C&O. It's tucked away off the trail and away from the parking area. The decor is very cool: 1930's style and in excellent shape. The HVAC works great, the bathroom is vintage nice, and the kitchen is fully stocked with pots and dishes. There is also a screened in porch and outdoor fire pit. There is road noise outside, but it's quiet in the house. The beds are the one down side - they are thin and hard, and bedding isn't provided. All in all, it was a great spot to end our 300+ mile ride after camping for 4 nights in a row.

This was an absolutely wonderful experience!!! All the comforts without the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Location was very easy to get to and had the walking trail right outside the front door. We enjoyed watching the planes taking off from the nearby airport and was surprised by the low level of noise from the outside as we relaxed inside. The beds are a little outdated but with some clever brainstorming, they became manageable. It was very clean upon arrival. The kitchen was stocked with what you would need to cook wonderful meals all weekend and the firepit is even set up for outdoor cooking. The parking is on site with plenty of yard for relaxing. If you're looking for a place to getaway and decompress or to stay somewhere other than a hotel, this will not disappoint!!!

Stayed here as our wedding accommodations and it was really a genius idea. So much better than a hotel or air bnb option, and so much more memorable. We were able to host a bon fire. I took a hike on the toe path after waking up. You are right in the city but are in nature at the same time. It really added to our wedding weekend to have beautiful and unique accommodations. We took our first look pictures by the canal, and I will always remember this as part of our special day!

Also, the shower is really nice and the water pressure is better than what I have at home. The hot water runs out after like 8-10 minutes but its not so bad! HVAC is also great. We got married on a hot day and we were actually cold while getting ready.

Only areas for improvement: bed mattresses are not the best, BYO mattress topper to be more comfortable. Proper trash cans in the home to make clean up easier.

We will definitely be back. Special shout out to the Canal Staff and Arden who was so attentive in emails!
