About the host
Hosted by Queli Campos
Hey there! I’m a proud mama of three and a lover of the great outdoors—especially if it involves sand between my toes and a salty breeze. My pack includes three playful dogs, so we're always up for an adventure! Whether you're here for relaxation or exploring, we know how to make the most of it. I believe in fun, family, and a bit of spontaneity. Looking forward to sharing our space with you!
Why they chose this property
Why We Chose Hancock—and Why You'll Love It Too
We chose Hancock because it’s a hidden gem that offers the perfect mix of small-town charm, outdoor adventure, and rich history. Nestled along the Potomac River and C&O Canal Towpath, it’s a dream for trail lovers, history buffs, and anyone looking to relax in nature.
As Maryland’s official Trail Town, Hancock is right on the C&O Canal and the Western Maryland Rail Trail—ideal for biking, hiking, and scenic walks. The town’s peaceful vibe and riverside views make it a favorite stop for riders traveling between Pittsburgh and DC.
We love the area's deep history—dating back to the 1700s—including visits from George Washington and the town’s growth around the canal. Today, you can explore local museums, the nearby Paw Paw Tunnel, or take a short drive to Antietam Battlefield.
Beyond the trails, there’s plenty to enjoy: pick up fresh treats at the Blue Goose Market, browse the antique mall, or relax in the mineral springs of nearby Berkeley Springs. The mix of nature, history, and local flavor makes Hancock truly special.
Whether you're stopping in for a night on the trail or staying longer to explore the region, we think you'll find the same peace and charm here that made us fall in love with it.
