Just a short drive from Silver Spring and you’re on the Shawnee Mountains, geared and ready to go!
Not the type for skiing? Shivering on the slopes not your idea of a great time? Well, grab a cup of cocoa and cozy up in our lounge . It’s the perfect place to put your feet up and tune out the bustling city.
