About Bowling Green

Bowling Green is a quiet, close-knit community located just southwest of Cumberland along Route 220. Tucked between the Potomac River and the wooded slopes of Haystack Mountain, the area gives residents a scenic backdrop and plenty of breathing room. Originally open farmland, the neighborhood has evolved into calm residential streets where you can enjoy mountain-valley views right outside your front door.
