2011 Map of Gore

About this map

Lake Holiday serves as a central hub for residential development in this portion of Frederick County, surrounded by a dense network of neighborhoods including Country Club Heights, Northwood Hills, and Nordic Village. The landscape is defined by the significant corridor of Back Creek and the heights of Great North Mountain and Bear Garden Mountain. Historically significant points of interest are scattered throughout the rural sections, from the Whitacre Post Office to numerous family and community burial grounds such as Redland Cemetery and Gainesboro Cemetery. The transition from the established village of Gore to the more modern lakeside communities illustrates the evolving land use in the early 21st century, where traditional mountain hollows like Grove Hollow meet newer aviation-oriented sites like Timber Ridge Airpark.
