The Maples is a historic home located at Smithsburg, Washington County, Maryland, United States. It is a two-story, six-bay stone and log dwelling trimmed in black and white. The house features a rather elaborate neoclassical cornice with dentils matching the entrance frontispiece and extending along the entire length of the house.
