Mt. Tabor’s team specializes in building mountain homes.
Summer temperatures are giving way to cooler days, meaning fall foliage watchers will soon be visiting the mountains.
The maple, oak and hickory nut trees are expected to peak around October 20th of this year in Washington County, MD and surrounding area. That means traffic from the Baltimore and Washington, D.C. areas should be pretty thick between now and the first week of November. Interstate 70 will soon glow with car lights for the next six Friday nights.

Some of those travelers will drive westward, look around and head home. Some will discuss what it would be like to have a vacation home in the beautiful Allegheny Mountains of the Tri-state area. And some will actually pursue building or renovating an existing home, cabin or cottage.
“There are a lot of people from the city who want a place to vacation to or retire to,” says Willie Eby, owner of Mt. Tabor Builders in Clear Spring, MD. “They contact us about designing and building a home in the mountains, usually around the Berkeley Springs area or just north of Hancock in Maryland. It’s a beautiful area and seems further away from the city than it actually is.”
The “Mountain Timber Lodge” in the company’s portfolio is a perfect example of an outdated structure turned into a picturesque dwelling. The rancher sits on a sprawling wooded lot and is accented with exposed timbers cut in Mt. Tabor’s timber shop. The interior has many upgrades, including designer wood cabinetry in the remodeled kitchen and laundry areas.
Mt. Tabor designs and builds homes all types of homes. They work with clients to help shape their ideas into the property they both want and need for their current and future stages in life.
Each Mt. Tabor Builders project is built — or renovated — with top quality building products. Those products include Andersen Windows and Doors, Therma-Tru entry doors and GAF Shingle Systems. This all adds up to make each home air-tight and energy-efficient. Every home is engineered and built to last, because Mt. Tabor uses the highest building standards.
The team members believe integrity in the work leads to satisfied clients. And those clients lead to great testimonials, like this one from Craig. He and his wife hired Mt. Tabor to build a home in Berkeley Springs, WV after retiring.
“It’s been an absolutely wonderful experience,” said Craig, who left Northern Virginia for a mountain home with his wife. “We knew what we wanted to do when we set up a meeting with Royce (Eby) and Willie (Eby). It was a great opportunity to get to know them as special guys, as both human beings and craftsman.”
