C&O Canal ~ Lockhouse 25 collage
There are six lockhouses along the C&O Canal that can be rented, with varying degrees of amenities. Each one is furnished to depict a different era that the C&O Canal was used. This house was reflective of the Civil War time since Northern troops were all over the area of Edwards Ferry to prevent the South from crossing the river here. Though fully furnished, there was no heat, electricity or running water in this house, so it was very much an indoor camping experience. No sign of ghosts either, which was a real plus!
