It lies 22.3 miles north of Garrett, MD (from Garrett, MD: bearing 11°T), and is situated 3.8 miles west-south-west of Rockwood.

Through the heart of Casselman, the Casselman River flows, a ribbon of cool, clear water mirroring the vast, often dramatic Pennsylvania sky. The air here carries the crisp, clean scent of pine and damp earth, a constant reminder of the surrounding wilderness, and in the twilight, the fading light paints the western hills in hues of lavender and rose, a fleeting masterpiece. Even the shadows seem to have a certain weight, a palpable presence in the deep woods. The history of Casselman is inextricably linked to the bounty of the earth and the ingenuity of those who sought it. Coal mining once shaped the character of this region, leaving behind a legacy of resilience and a deep connection to the labor that built its foundations. While the industry has shifted, the spirit of hard work and self-reliance persists, evident in the well-tended gardens and the friendly nods exchanged on the street. The local economy now finds its footing in agriculture and small businesses, with the fertile valley soil yielding crops that feed the surrounding communities. A notable landmark, the historic Casselman Bridge, stands as a silent sentinel to a bygone era, a testament to the architectural skill and ambition of earlier generations, its stone arches still gracefully spanning the river's flow.
