Fairfield Inn & Suites in Cumberland
Terry Walker from CENTRAL ILLINOIS on 07/26/2025 02:07 PM:
We were booked into this hotel , but we had to cancel because of schedule problems, and had to cancel wheelzup shuttle back to our truck. This hotel is right on the trail. and very nice, wheelzup is a block away. And does an excellent job. We only had one hour in CUMBERLAND, so we went to DIG DEEP BREWING, on the trail THEY HAD THE LOBSTER TRUCK , we only had time for a beer, it was great, dam we didn't have time to eat lobster, had to catch a new shuttle back to my truck that was now in Meyersdale instead of West Homestead , we did out and backs all the way to Meyersdale moving the truck each day. Yes flooding, washouts, thunder storms, and a trail closing between Markelton and Rockwood 6 miles changed our plans, We also didn't do out and back from West Homestead to Pittsburgh 8 mile each way. All in all we rode well over 200 miles on a 150 mile trail. Because we had my truck most of the way we were able to add several side trips. FLIGHT 93 MEMORIAL , waterfalls in ohiopyle, slide rock, a country restaurant 3 miles north of Rockwood. Brewery in Rockwood.

Terry thank you for all your great reviews and details. I'll be using them for my next adventure on the Gap. Sounds like you had a couple of hiccups, but overall a successful trip.

Anyone have experience with the Fairfield Inn in Cumberland?

How close to the trail? Are they bike friendly?

Thanks.

Definetely recommend this hotel. Bike friendly, literally on the C&O, decent price. Think I recall a bike wash area also.

We stayed at the Fairfield Inn last May when riding the GAP-G&O. Nice hotel and directly on the trail as well as close to restaurants and stores -- include a bike shop. The rate was surprisingly high when we stayed there, apparently due to a bluegrass music festival in Cumberland at the time.

Thanks all. Booked it this morning...along with all our other stops along the way. READY TO GO...later this summer. Can't wait. Never been on this trail before. DC to Pittsburgh...here we come. Thanks for the help and guidance from many of you on the board. It's a great resource. Thanks again.

I was not impressed with this establishment, the so called “continental breakfast”, or their rates. For their room price, I’d rather stay at the Holiday Inn. At least you’ll get a real restaurant, bar, and room service.
