Thurmont sits at the base of Catoctin Mountain — the gateway to Catoctin Mountain Park and Cunningham Falls State Park, with a rural, small-town feel that’s a real change of pace from Frederick city.

Mountain Gateway Living

Thurmont is the jumping-off point for Catoctin Mountain Park and Cunningham Falls, which means hiking, fishing, and state park access are practically in your backyard. The town itself keeps a rural, close-knit character.

Getting Around

US-15 runs straight through Thurmont, connecting south to Frederick and north toward Gettysburg, PA.

Local Favorites

10Tavern and Bollinger’s Restaurant (which also runs Uncle Dirty’s Brew Works) are both local mainstays. The Town of Thurmont website covers local services and events, including the town’s well-known Colorfest each fall.

The Thurmont Market

Thurmont tends to offer more land and a more rural setting for the price than closer-in parts of the county. I can help you weigh that trade-off against your commute and lifestyle needs.
