Cumberland sits amid peaceful hills and wide-open sky, where a slower pace pairs with quick access to adventure. Residents love having world-class wildlife experiences minutes away at The Wilds, a 10,000-acre safari park and conservation center that’s as unforgettable for weekend outings as it is for visiting guests. When it’s time for boating, beach days, hiking, or cabin getaways, the shoreline and trails at Salt Fork State Park are an easy drive, while everyday conveniences, dining, and healthcare await in nearby Cambridge and Zanesville. You’ll also find cultural outings and collegiate energy in the neighboring college town of New Concord.
Families value the area’s practical education options. Many enroll with Rolling Hills Local Schools, known for strong community support and wide-ranging extracurriculars, and the Guernsey County District Public Library enriches learning with story times, makerspace programming, and mobile services. County offices and services in Guernsey County add to the area’s grounded, get-it-done feel.
Housing here often includes generous lots, space for hobbies, and star-filled nights, with commutes along state routes that make regional work centers straightforward to reach. Weekends might mean antiquing and festivals in Cambridge, a concert or museum visit in Zanesville, and sunset views after a long walk closer to home.
