Baker Park hosts summer concerts
Carrollton Park is the closest green space in the neighborhood’s south end, featuring a playground for kids. Carroll Creek Park stretches east to west across Downtown and has brick-paved footpaths for folks to stroll beside a slow-churning canal. A stone’s throw west is Baker Park, Frederick’s central green space, just a couple blocks north of Carrollton. The park features several courts for tennis or bocce ball, a walking trail beside Carroll Creek, and the historic “Swinging Bridge,” a landmark suspension bridge originally built in 1885 and is the only suspension bridge in Frederick County. Baker Park has a bandstand where locals can picnic in the warmer months or enjoy a concert or festival that the town hosts. Catoctin Mountain Park is 20 miles north; it’s a National Park with over 25 miles of hiking trails and campgrounds and offers cross-country skiing in the winter. “If you’re coming for the history, Gettysburg, Antietam and Harper’s Ferry are within driving distance,” says Jennifer Grove, a Frederick local and broker/owner at Bach Real Estate. “While Monocacy Battlefield is in Frederick and has hiking paths.” These flashpoint Civil War locations are all National Parks that host reenactments of the battles, typically on the anniversary of the events.

Downtown has breweries, restaurants and art galleries
Carrollton residents have access to Downtown Frederick activities in their free time. “It’s an amazing arts and restaurant district with great community events and activities; [there’s] something for everyone,” says Grove. Frederick Social is a neighborhood hangout on the bank of Carroll Creek. It’s a brewpub with board games for adults, a play area for kids, a menu of small bites and flatbread pizzas, and a wall with almost 40 self-pour beer taps. Locals can also rent the space for private events or sip and socialize on the dog-friendly patio overlooking the creek. Pistarro’s serves authentic Italian dishes and has a brick oven built in Naples for its wood-fired pizzas. Several art centers are in Downtown Frederick, like the Weinberg Center for Performing Arts, Art Collective, a boutique selling handcrafted art pieces, and Gaslight Gallery, where local artists can put their works on public display.
