The National Museum of Cambridge Glass is located in downtown Cambridge, Ohio and is a popular destination for visitors and members from around the country. The Museum has allowed the National Cambridge Collectors, Inc. mission of preservation and education to flourish. Experiential programming has been developed by museum volunteers that allow us to engage the public in the rich history of the Cambridge Glass Company. Bus groups and schools visit the museum to experience what it would have been like to work at the glass house many years ago and to see over 10,000 pieces of beautiful Cambridge Glass. There is always something new at the National Museum of Cambridge Glass! Staff and volunteers are enthusiastic and excited to share information with each visitor.

One does not have to be a glass collector to appreciate the beauty of the display of colorful, high-quality, antique/vintage American glass. There are pieces/patterns on display that are extremely rare and others that are very obtainable on eBay, antique malls, & vintage/antique glass shows throughout the country. Why register your wedding pattern at Crate and Barrel and pay top dollar for cheap Chinese imports? Find a pattern/color here that you love, and go collect it! (The museum staff can help you identify patterns/colors that are readily obtainable...not something crazy expensive and/or rare.). The museum does sell “starter pieces” donated by members, and unlike other museums, they do not price gouge; they are priced very fairly. BTW, on your first time visiting the museum, you’ll probably hangout for an hour; your second visit...you’ll be there for four! Note: I am a collector of Cambridge Glass (Caprice and Everglades patterns) and yes, I shop at Crate and Barrel, too!
3. The Great Guernsey Trail

We rode this trail while on a one night stop in Cambridge. A few well marked road and driveway crossings along the seven mile route. The trail follows a creek. There is a large wetland area, we noticed a couple of benches and possibly duck blinds facing the wetland. There is a playground where the trail passes through Lore, OH. If biking with kids, this is a good halfway spot to run around and have a snack. I was impressed with the good condition of the trail, ample parking and the ease of finding the trail. The trailhead is minutes off the highway. This would be a great destination when visiting Cambridge or Salt Fork State Park.

The court house building comes alive with lights and music. I think it repeats every half hour and it is FREE. Then walk down Wheeling Ave and take in the Dickens characters and displays. Good places to eat while you are there. Charter buses bring groups here and no disappointments. Pick up some pastries at Kennedy’s downtown, YUM.

Today was a beautiful experience at the park. We stopped at the lodge to visit the gift shop. They have delightful quilling cards and other unique items. At the front desk Tricia was very helpful as we were hiking. She showed us multiple hikes and gave us directions. We had done some research but she added the hike adjacent to the lodge which led us past the cabins and another marina. In addition we did the Sadbush and crowed paths with horses. The Stone House Loop and Hosak’s Cave were nice hikes too. Blue skies and kind fellow hikers made for an excellent day. Few people on the trails and all were patient and willing to share the views. There is an option to drive to the Stone House Loop. In normal times there is also a free canoe trip to the Stone House. Better to look for that in 2021. The delightful caretaker at the Stone House was chatty with visitors. We struck up a conversation regarding the sun dial. The trails were all dry and easy to hike. Very little water in the creek bed of Hosak’s Cave and none coming over the falls as it has been dry lately. The hikes made for an amazing outdoor experience today. We packed a lunch and enjoyed a picnic too.
