LOCKHOUSE 6

The Chesapeake & Ohio Canal has shaped the region and influenced the lives of many people. Among them were the lock keepers, who were responsible for ensuring the passage of boats. To accomplish this task, they lived near the lock for which they were responsible. Recently, you can take a step back in time and stay in the house occupied by the lock operator in charge of Lock House 6, which has been completely renovated to restore it to the look it had in the 1950s. The kitchen, bathroom and heating are perfectly functional, but be careful, you will need to bring sheets and cushions. If unusual accommodations are your hobby, this should delight you, especially since the setting is very bucolic.
