About this property

Gorgeous 1840 Log Cabin- Downtown

Very unique Beautifully Renovated Historic 1840 Downtown Frederick Log Cabin House. There really isn’t anything like this in Frederick. The house is so close to everything downtown. Its about a ten minute walk to the Canal. The holiday season is my wife s favorite time of year in downtown Frederick. The streets are all lit up and looks beautiful.
It has all the amenities of a house to live in full-time. I set it up to live in and ended up moving to Hawaii. Everything is brand new outside of the logs for the cabin and the flooring. It is truly beautiful.
There are so many things to do in downtown Frederick. There are restaurants and bars working a 10 min walk from the house.
I bought the cabin about 4 yrs ago. There were no windows, doors, electrical or plumbing. It was a full renovation to it back to its original beauty with all the modern amenities. It is now a super comfortable place to stay.
There is a photo album on the coffee table showing the renovation process.
I hope you enjoy the log cabin as much as my family does.

Perfect!

My company, Mettle Events, Inc. are the timers for the Frederick Running Festival, and we like to stay in rentals vs. hotels. The Cabin was perfect! Clean, off-street parking, walkable location to restaurants & breweries, five minutes to our job site (the fairgrounds) and I loved that everything was labeled! the house rules were clear and easy to understand, and the price was right! We will definitely be returning to The Cabin!

If you like history, this area is a wonderful area to visit and this rental is a perfect has your base location. This house has all the amenities to make your stay comfortable.

Fantastic!

Perfect location, walking distance to restaurants and shops. There’s a brew pub on the corner too. The home is clean, quaint, and has a warm welcoming feel to it. We cooked several meals in the kitchen and got to just hang out and enjoy the family room area too. Really positive experience overall.

Great location and great space for multi-generation stay

Visited MD for a family wedding weekend and this property and location had everything we needed for three generations that stayed together!! Walkable to local restaurants, coffee shops and bars. Uber ride from nearby locations was affordable. Bathrooms were big enough for getting ready. And the kitchen had all that we needed to make meals together! Great response from the host on a couple of quick questions!

Exquisitely Reimagined Log Cabin in Frederick!

This charmingly refurbished log cabin exceeded our expectations—quiet neighborhood within walking distance to Frederick’s many attractions, shops, galleries and restaurants. Beautifully restored walls in the living room showcased the architecture of the original 1860 log cabin. A restful hideaway in a great town.

Perfect for a Fun Weekend Getaway

The house is ideal for an incredible weekend adventure in Historic Downtown Frederick, Maryland. The place is newly renovated, clean and very well kept with all the amenities at your fingertips. The property owner was very pleasant and answered our questions promptly. During our stay in April, we explored the local haunts including coffee shops, breweries, eclectic stores, art galleries and a variety of restaurants that exceeded our expectations. We felt safe walking home at night and took advantage of the nearby spa, Baker Park, Everyday Square & Shab Row and Carroll Creek Park. Scenic hiking is 20 minutes away at Catoctin Mountain Park with picturesque Catoctin Breeze Vineyard nearby. Highly recommend!

Great cabin with everything you could need. Hosts are very responsive and have put a lot of care into this property. This is the second stay for us and it was, again, a great experience. The best brewery and coffee shop in town are within a block and everything else in Frederick is within walking distance.

Modern with historic charm

We loved our 2 night stay here. The master mattress was so comfortable, and that is coming from two picky adults who typically dislike mattresses when we are traveling. We woke feeling well rested. The master shower had great water pressure (another thing we value when traveling!). It's quite amazing to know it is a 1800s property and imagine the care and detail that went into restoring it to the modern and comfortable place it is today. We would definitely stay again

Wonderful little cabin in the heart of the city

This is a beautiful and well maintained property. We appreciated the blend of old and new styling and the kitchen and baths are top notch and well equipped. The location is great for walking to everything in downtown Frederick. As most people who live in a city know, the private driveway is a valuable asset. We would definitely stay there again.

About the host

Hosted by Danny Gasemy

I grew up in Montgomery County Maryland, moved to Frederick in 1999 for about 6 years and fell in love with the small town feel. I lived Southern California for 11 yrs and then moved to Hawaii, but always come back to visit Frederick. My home away from home. Have always loved the historic buildings in Frederick and I love restoring them back to their original beauty for others to enjoy.
I was in construction for about 15 yrs and loved the work, but didn't like the long hours. I walked away from construction and have been a full-time network marketer and real estate investor since the early 2000s. I got married in 2017 to an amazing woman and we decided to move to the Dallas area. My wife and I enjoy traveling around the world, exploring new places and learning about different cultures . Life is meant to be lived and have fun with the people you love!
I hope you enjoy our unique properties as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

I was going to live in the cabin but moved to Hawaii for a year. This was such a unique place right in the middle of downtown. There is nothing like it. I thought it would be so much fun to bring it back to life and let others enjoy a little bit of history. I grew up in MD and lived in Frederick for about 5 years and fell in love with the city. I always come back to see my family. I am happy that others can enjoy it as my as I do.

What makes this property unique

There are only a few places this cabin in the downtown area. It took a long time to renovate it and and so much extra care to keep a lot of the original parts of the 1840 cabin. It looks beautiful now!!! It’s got 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms. One with a stand up huge shower and the other one has a bathtub.
