Frederick is a lively, walkable small city with a beautifully preserved downtown full of restaurants, craft breweries, galleries, weekend markets and easy access to rivers, parks and trails — perfect for a travel therapist who wants multi‑week stays that feel like living, not just lodging. Short‑term rentals, local cafes and a friendly community make it easy to settle in between shifts.
It’s also an easy drive to Washington, D.C. and Baltimore for museums, airports and weekend nightlife, giving you small‑city charm with big‑city options close by.
