Millsap-Baker Estate

Dave Millsaps, a gifted wood carver and building contractor, was responsible for many of the historic, Victorian homes in the Damascus Virginia area and throughout Washington County Virginia. His carving talent was nationally recognized and published; and his clients included many famous people of his day, including Will Rogers, Randolf Scott, J.P. Morgan, and Presidents Theodore and Franklin Roosevelt.
