Enjoy the good life our region has to offer: scenic beauty; outdoor activities; cultural events and festivals; the arts; friendly, safe communities; and life at a pace you can enjoy. Our area is a gem in the mountains.

Within a one-to-two hour drive are popular four-season resorts which offer many activities for the outdoor enthusiast, as well as relaxing spa amenities. The region has numerous golf courses, including a Jack Nicklaus signature golf course that overlooks Lake Habeeb at Rocky Gap State Park.

Broadway productions come to life at the Cumberland Theatre–the region’s only professional theater. Downtown Cumberland is also home to a growing number of artisans and galleries. Plus, there are plenty of dining options around town. Allegany County boasts a number of locally owned and operated bakeries, coffee shops, restaurants, and bars. Whether you’re in the mood for traditional American dishes or Mexican, Asian or Italian cuisine, we have it. Keep in mind that a vast array of cultural events in Washington, D.C., Baltimore, and Pittsburgh are only about two hours away.
