cumberland visitor center印象

This place is tinny and not much of a visitors center like most visitor centers are like. At least you'll learn some history of Cumberland though. There are a lot more things to do in Cumberland than going to the visitors center. If you like riding bikes the C&O Canal or The Great Allegheny Passage.

I stopped to ride the Western Maryland Scenic Railroad but it was closed when I was there as it only runs Thursday - Sunday. So I went to check out the visitors center for something else to do while in Cumberland and the visitors center was a nice surprise to find that the C&O Canal National Park museum is combined with the visitors center.I enjoyed looking at the displays and learning some more information about the C&O Canal.

Stopped in to learn about the C&O Canal and learned about so much more! The gentleman at the desk was a wealth of info about the Canal history, local Civil War history, and of special interest to me, the areas fascinating French and Indian War history. We talked for an hour and he helped me set up a trail to follow, ending at Fort Pitt in Pittsburgh . I would highly recommended taking some time here, as it will enhance your visit to the area?

Very cute place with friendly and helpful staff on the Sunday afternoon we visited. We were able to get maps and they provided suggestions on places to eat in the downtown area.

Stopped at the CVC on the way to Savage River Lodge. Were pleasantly surprised by the excellent exhibits and friendly staff.

We were in Cumberland for the first time in many years. Of course we made our first stop the Cumberland Visitors Center. It is very clean and well presented. They have a nice museum on the C&O Canal and the people and boats that were a part of that time in Maryland history. Both of the centers information people knew the city of Cumberland and all of the sites to see in the area, including sites in West virginia.We were very pleased with the center and its information hosts. If you are in Cumberland for a few hours or a few days, you must stop in and see this wonderful "Center" and its hosts.Bruce H. Roush, Jr

Convenient to the Western Maryland Scenic RR, The C&O Canal Nat. Park, and Allegheny bike trail to Pittsburgh. Ask for Ryan. He will talk your leg off on living history.

The train ride schedule start back next year , wish they had extended the train ride to the last weekend in December.

Cumberland Visitor Center is in the bottom of the railway depot. They have information and maps on tourist attractions, lodging, dining and activities in the area. You can also get the free parking pass for the lot here. The hidden gem is a small museum on the C&O Canal. (It's free, but donations are accepted.) If you are doing any biking in the area, talk with the volunteers or park service personnel to get some personal tips. We got information on a neat spur trail to WVA just outside of the city. A great stop!

Good history exhibits. Worth time, but do not need more than an hour. Staff had some knowledge of current status of C & O. If you are going on the C & O, ask them if there are any detours, advisories that are not on websites.
