We explored this site based on recommendations per the Underground Railroad Byway (VisitMaryland.Org). Due to our arrival time to the area from DC, I made an impromptu change to the schedule veering off the path from stop 1, and began at Stop 28, then we skipped to Stop 17. I assumed the store was opened but it wasn’t. However, a scheduled tour was headed to the location and they were running late. The co-owner Susan, who was gracious to welcome us as she was preparing for the arrival of the tour group and she shared some great information with my party of five. I recall reading with my son about Harriet Tubman and learning about her getting hit in the head by a flying object. What a surprise to learn we were at the site of that incident. It was living history in my backyard.I am so grateful for the community members who’ve worked tirelessly to keep these gems open for tourists and locals to learn and preserve history. Susan was such a joy to listen to and she made the experience more relevant for my 7 and 11 year old. When we arrived at the Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad Museum (Stop 18 and explored more, they felt the impact of having just seen her birth place marker (Stop 16), the store and the mill, knowing they were traveling the same path that Harriet once traveled. It was a beautiful experience and day.Please call in advance to make sure the store is opened. And check out the Kayak Tours that Susan and her husband offer. Susan is a certified Tour Guide in partnership with the Harriet Tubman Museum in Cambridge and she offers a wealth of information having grown up in the area as well.I hope you find this review helpful. If so, please give me a thumbs up. Thank you.

It was amazing to be in a place that has so much history. Seeing all of the old items and realizing you are standing where a giant like Harriet Tubman once stood.....wow. It also will male you realize how easy we have it now. We have all types of stores all over. I definitely recommend checking it out. 1
