Pickles Place
Private spot and right on the lake!
Enjoyed our two day stay.
Our 20ft R-pod fit nicely on the lot.
Google maps did not show us the alternate route to avoid driving up the steep mountain.

Pickles Place
We had a good time at Pickles Place, the lake is nice and clean, the site has plenty of flat surface, has a picnic table, fire pit and a couple lounge chairs. But I wanted to point out that the site isn’t very private - you’re about 10 meters away from a house, and there’s another house on the other side behind the trees. Also the site is basically right on the road (even though it’s a dead end and there were almost no cars), and there are no trees or anything hiding it from passers by, everyone can see your camp, so for people who are looking for a more private camping this can be something to keep in mind. Also we expected a sandy access to the lake, but it doesn’t really look like the picture, there are lots of big rocks on the bottom and other debris. Overall we had a good time, great place!

Beautiful little lake and a very peaceful place and community around the lake. Pickle's Place was perfect for our 25ft motorhome for an overnight boondocking trip. As stated in other reviews - bring everything you need for your stay.

Great spot. We enjoyed the scenery and how quiet it was at night. Come prepared with everything you need to be self sufficient!

Beautiful spot! Perfect place for our pop up camper, level and lots of space to maneuver. No issues getting our small boat in and out of the lake. Caught a fish! Wonderful trip!

Very private, can pitch a tent a couple feet from the water. Access to it is fine in a sedan, but just be aware going up the mountain hill road towards the lake is a gravel road with some sharp turns.
Well worth the cost though for the private lakefront views. Saw chipmunks, squirrels, lots of small cute birds, and mosquitoes were not bad.

We loved our May long weekend at Pickle's Place! The weather was perfect. The space was great for our camper. We brought our canoe and paddled around the lake. It was nice to be close to Annapolis, we went on many drives and adventures. If you go by the Crows Nest restaurant, be sure to get their hand cut fries. They were the best we've had in a long time.
We had a fire by the lake each night. It was quiet and extremely relaxing. Waking up to all the birds chirping was a delight.
Five star long weekend for sure!
