Chris,
I vsited Hoover's fishing retreat in Shanendoah NP a few years ago. One of his requirments for his retreat was that it had to be within a 100 miles of Washington and have a trout stream. If you look at the amazing amount of trouble he faced with the onslaught of the Great Depression you can truly understand both the quote and his retreat. The location is well maintained and I believe you can even rent his cabin; it is a nice 2-3 mile walk from the sky rim drive.
