Description
This unique place has a style all its own! The Jarboe Suite takes its name from the Jarboe family, the original 1948 builders of Manor House at Gayfield. The bedroom boasts an antique canopy bed, wonderful marble topped dresser and washstand, new mini-split HVAC, and the the large bathroom includes a large corner spa tub. The Jarboe Suite is situated nicely with a small kitchenette that includes a dry-sink conversion, countertop cooktop, microwave, basic pots and pans, and utensils.There is an 850 yard long path down to the large Monocacy River which borders the East edge of the farm. There is about 1500 ft of river frontage, but it’s not really possible to manicure the river bank so you’ll need to work your way down to the water as if you were in the wild if you’d like to fish or launch a kayak.Currently several animals from D&D’s Petting Zoo and Pony Rides are boarded at the farm and include ponies, a zebra, a miniature donkey, goats and other such critters. The animals are very friendly!In support of the global effort to conserve energy resources utilizing reasonable practices, we use a maximum heating setting of 71 degrees and a minimum cooling setting of 72 degrees.The Manor House at Gayfield Estate was originally built in 1850 by the Jarboe family, and currently sits upon 144 acres of farmland in Central Frederick County. The farm has had three owners, currently owned by the Bartlett family and before them the Morans and the Jarboes. Thomas Jarboe served as a County Commissioner in the 1800’s and William “Bill” Moran was a world-famous knifesmith.The Jarboe family commissioned a major addition in 1895 when the Northwest turret, 4 rooms on the Southeast side, and the stone water tower were added. So the Jarboe family had ‘running’ water in the 1800’s, which was rare at the time.Although the house has been modified over the last nearly 200 years , all of the wood floors throughout the house date from 1850 and in some rooms 1895, and nearly all of the woodwork dates to the same periods.
