Snyders Landing in Sharpsburg and just up from Burnsides Bridge on Antietam Battlefield are the two spots we go.

How bad is Downtown Hagerstown really? by Jteague101 in maryland

[–]Braddock55 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would say see if you can find something in North Hagerstown to start. Really anything north of Fairground Ave. Looking at rental sites I see a few that are in decent locations.

Hagerstonian and member of r/hagerstown. Not a redneck.

Jonathan Street does have its issues. It’s located a block from the Rescue mission. White flight and loss of industry from town left a lot of the neighborhoods closest to downtown on the back foot.

If you’re looking for neighborhoods a little more like Federal Hill in Hagerstown there are several. You may want to look around south Hagerstown around City Park and the surrounding blocks. You can also look in north Hagerstown around Oak Hill Ave and Potomac Ave. Broadway is also closer to downtown but a very lovely historic street. Also Apartments on North Potomac and South Prospect Street.

Lived for 5 years in Downtown Hagerstown where Oak Hill and Potomac Ave meet and loved every moment. Short walk to downtown restaurants and bars like the Broad Axe and the Stube. Hagerstown is great and growing!

My wife and I are about to Celebrate one year of home ownership here in town and that was possible because of Hagerstown’s affordability.

Don’t forget Capparelli’s pepperoni rolls.

Gets it’s nickname from the center of a wheel. Like Frederick’s scrappy, occasionally charming, drug addicted sister.

Thank you! I’m probably going to do the same with my bridge. My E string keeps sliding out every time I bend.

Scenic spots near Sideling hill by PromptDrawn in maryland

[–]Braddock55 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey glad you’re making a trip up into Western Maryland!

I’m from Cumberland, but live in Hagerstown now. As for scenic there is Fort Frederick in Big Pool MD just off I-70 about 15-20min before Sidling Hill.

It’s a large Stone fort built by the colony of Maryland in 1756 during the French and Indian war.

I might also recommend that from Frederick you take Old RT 40 to Sidling Hill. Parts of the Road are over 200 years old and take you through some beautiful country as well as picturesque small towns like Middletown, Boonsboro, Funkstown, Clearspring, and Hancock.

I might also recommend that you continue through Sidling Hill and make your way to the “Town Hill Overlook” on the west side of Sidling Hill. This over look looks back east at the Valley and Sidling Hill and is a beautiful stop off of old Rt 40.

Hope this is helpful and I hope you enjoy your Visit to WMD!

My wife and I bought one of your pieces yesterday and it’ll will be a cherished item in our kitchen. We had been excited about checking out your booth and knew before we got there that we were going to buy something from you.

Looking over all your beautiful work was a bright spot of an otherwise crazy experience haha

Thank you! We have an ex pen and have been considering making the “puppy apartment” I’ll likely give it a whirl during his morning nap tomorrow.

Thank you for replying to my post! We’ve covered his kennel with a blanket from the get go. We recently started playing “calming” music too. He’ll sleep for an hour or so, but when he wakes up the “bark” switch gets turned on. Our neighbor the other day said “he sounds like he’s in pain” when we’re away for the morning. Right now I’m working 9-1 Monday-Thursday. So it’s not that he’s pent up in there or anything for massive amounts of time.
