Weekend Trip to Strawberry Crossroads

Perfect place if you need something close to ocean city without paying a pretty penny. I actually told my friend about the place and even he booked a space last minute!!

Weekend Trip to Strawberry Crossroads

Clean and very private campground ⛺️! I love it !

1 night at WonderWoods at Rocky Gap

Lovely place and really pleased that she actually had coffee there so I could relax and enjoy my morning after driving in and heading out next day. Thank you Kristen!

Weekend Trip to Strawberry Crossroads

Strawberry Cross Road Campground is a great safe and clean place to camp all year round ! The host TJ is always very friendly and accommodating for any doubts or special need you might have. A great spot to spend some days surrounded by nature …

1 night at WonderWoods at Rocky Gap

Acorn Palace was the perfect getaway for me. Everything was very nice and new, and Kristen thought of every possible detail. It’s close enough to the park that you could walk to the lake if you would like, but also feels very secluded. Kristen was very friendly, and hospitable. I would definitely like to return!

Weekend Trip to WonderWoods at Rocky Gap

Pine Meadow Campsite was the perfect blend of seclusion, comfort, and natural beauty. While the campsite itself is small, there's plenty of space to spread out and relax. The grounds were spotless, and we were constantly serenaded by birds and delighted by the sight of rabbits hopping through the area. The real highlight, though, was the watershed—a beautifully maintained building featuring a half bath, a full bath with a standing shower, and a small but impressively stocked kitchenette. It had everything we could possibly need (and more!), and stepping inside felt like coming home after a long day of hiking and exploring. What made this stay even more special was the location. Nestled on private property right in the middle of Rocky Gap State Park, we had easy access to everything the park offers—without the crowds or the hassle of public campground facilities. And if I could give this stay six stars, I would—thanks entirely to our incredible host. She was kind, responsive, and truly went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. Her hospitality made our trip unforgettable. We can’t wait to come back!

Weekend Trip to WonderWoods at Rocky Gap

Beautiful location and cabin! Everything about the experience was well thought out. Everything we needed was at our fingertips and the cabin was adorable and cozy. Really loved the tiny wood stove! Can't wait to return!

Weekend Trip to Taylors Landing Camping Club

Awesome site right by the C&O canal, and a short walk to the river. Greg was great and very informative about the area. Very beautiful area and I plan to be back!

Weekend Trip to Blase ‘n Love Forest

This tent camping site had all the things you need: Tent, fire pit, ample wood, peace. The blowup bed in the tent is a real convenience, too! Most importantly, Tim and Kat are lovely, and accommodating. It was a pleasure meeting them and their puppies.

Weekend Trip to Happy Heart Highlands and Alpacas

Kimberly was very responsive. Directions were excellent. Parking was easy. Spot was level. It was very quiet. Loved seeing the Alpacas and cattle. There is also a talkative peacock and 2 friendly cats. There is a dog kennel nearby which got lively with the thunderstorm but not a big deal. We didn’t have cell service with Verizon but our friends with AT&T did. I like that they have firewood and eggs for sale there. It was very quiet overnight. Bring bug spray or a way to keep them at bay. We used a fan and two thermacell bug repellent devices and we were fine. We will be back. Close to lots of things to do.

Weekend Trip to Creekside Orchard

This was a beautifully situated and cared for campsite. Scott was a great host who checked in on us - including during a thunderstorm. It was an hour from Baltimore and a perfect quick camping getaway. And fwiw that was one of the cleanest wooden outhouses I have ever used! We can’t wait to come back.

Weekend Trip to Hawkwood Farm

Great place to camp if mountain biking the Frederick Watershed or just enjoying nature. Hosts were wonderful and communicative.

Weekend Trip to Maple Grove Farm

Amazing space!!! Very welcoming host and very friendly dogs!!!!🐶 easy to access fire pits and firewood is available to purchase.

Weekend Trip to HUNTER'S PARK BY WASHINGTON, DC

Beautiful and clean space with fire pit and more than enough space for a group of 15! Showers were freezing cold but refreshing…. Porta Potty was clean!! The hanging lights were perfect at night while sitting around the fire pit.. would definitely book again!

Weekend Trip to HUNTER'S PARK BY WASHINGTON, DC

Communication was great all along the way -- efficient, clear, and friendly! Unfortunately, cannot comment on the site itself since we had to cancel unexpectedly, but Keith was very helpful and flexible about the change, and we will be very happy to camp here in the future.

Weekend Trip to Maple Grove Farm

We stayed in the tent on top of the Land Rover. It was parked along the tree line on the edge of a pasture. About 50 sheep with lambs, an alpaca, a gentle, friendly pony and a horse were in the field next to us. If you’re a dog lover, you’ll really appreciate his farm dogs, who were happy to hang with us and keep us company. The tent was quite comfortable, though it took some concentration to safely maneuver getting up and down the ladder. The port a pot was the freshest smelling, cleanest one I’d ever encountered, and the other tent sites were in the same field, but not at all close to our site. The town of Bel Air is very close by with numerous restaurants. I would recommend the Sunny Day Cafe or one of the others on main st in the old town center. Bel Air also has just about any retail store you can think of. If you want to stay away from all of that, there are several nice parks within 20-30 minutes of the farm. Harford Glen is an environmental center that has a boardwalk through some wetlands, hiking trails through the woods and along side a creek, and a pond. Check online to find out when it’s open to the public. Rocks State Park also has hiking trails, with Dear Creek running through it. Visit the King and Queen Seat while you’re there. Also nearby, is a popular rail trail if you have bikes with you. Our stay at Edwin’s farm was very pleasant and carefree, which is just what we were looking for. Thanks Edwin!

7 nights at Comus Sky Farm

We haven’t found a better host anywhere across the country! Juanita is super responsive and respectful and her property is absolutely beautiful! We would highly recommend a stay here! Add a night or 2 to appreciate the beauty around!!

Weekend Trip to Riverside Farm by the Monocacy

We had such a great time at Ellie’s Favorite! The camp site was a great size for 4 of us and a dog. There were a few other people at the other sites but we were far enough away that we couldn’t see or hear them the entire trip unless we walked by! We will definitely be back!

Weekend Trip to Taylors Landing Camping Club

Greg was a great host! Communicated transparently and was there for anything we needed. Will be coming back! Our three kids under 6 LOVED IT!

Weekend Trip to HUNTER'S PARK BY WASHINGTON, DC

This place is amazing!!! We went with a three- and one-year-old, and they LOVED the horses and other animals, creek, and playground (with a trampoline!), and were entertained the whole time. Our dogs enjoyed the creek as well and had plenty of room to explore. Each site has string lights (which is such a nice touch) and a sink (which is so convenient). There is a large site for groups that looked a lot of fun. The directions and instructions were all very clear, and the host Keith checked in with us personally to ensure we had a good time. We will definitely be staying here again and are so happy with this site!

Landscaping, electric upgrades and bathhouse remodels were completed Spring 2021. We will continue to renovate in phases it's been a labor of love, but you can still see the beauty of this rural location and enjoy the peace and quiet. Hope you enjoy your stay. Lots of trees, shade and nature. It's located near New Germany State Park, 1.5 miles by car, less than a mile by foot. The state park has a lake and hiking trails.

Riverside Farm by the Monocacy

7 sites · Tents30 acres · Walkersville, MD

PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE DESCRIPTION BEFORE BOOKING... 30 acres of mostly reclaimed farmland. We are located where Glade Creek flows into the Monocacy River. There is evidence of civil war activity here and the old river ford is on our property. Creek and river access make this a beautiful, peaceful place that is full of life. The energy here is overwhelmingly positive. Our house was built in the 1850s and the neighboring farm was built shortly after—lots of history on this property. You will be able to camp right next to Glade Creek which is always cool, clean, and refreshing. Our goal with opening the land up for camping is to eventually phase out commercial farming on the property and transform it into woodlands using native plants and trees. We've already started by planting hundreds of native tree species along the creek and river banks. Each camper gets us closer to that goal! Thanks for your support! See our map in the gallery for a complete overview of our property including site locations. Please note that you will need to drive back through the crossing to access the portable toilet. Property occasionally floods. Zero flash floods, just slow river overflow. Check this site for flooding info. https://water.weather.gov/ahps2/hydrograph.php?gage=fdkm2 Flood stage is 15 feet.

Bald Eagle Farm on the Patuxent

3 sites · RVs, Tents300 acres · Brandywine, MD

Bald Eagle Farm has been in our family for three generations. Today two generations still live and operate the family farm. We once raised tobacco and cattle and have now converted to growing hay and grain. My family wants to share the views and the experience of sleeping under the stars on our beautiful secluded farm. You will hear nothing but the wind, birds, frogs and insects while you doze off or enjoy the dark sky and camp fire. We live on the farm so we are always here to help you out if needed. We can provide you with the firewood you need and water from our deep well. We are here to make your stay as comfortable as possible and provide a restroom in the case of an "emergency". Recently named a finalist for 'Best Hipcamp in Maryland'! Thank you SO much for your support and we look forward to hosting you in 2022.

PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN FIREWOOD. AT THIS TIME WE ARE OUT FOR THE SEASON. The original river campsite has been moved to a more remote spot so that all campers can access the pond and pier to the river.

Happy Heart Highlands and Alpacas

3 sites · RVs, Tents160 acres · Rohrersville, MD

Peaceful camping with privacy on a 160-acre historic farm! Minutes from Harpers Ferry, Antietam Battlefield and the C&O Canal to name a few. We are within an hour of Gettysburg and within an hour and a half of DC if you're planning a day trip. We have a prime central location with close access to so many things to do. This beautiful property is nestled in a narrow valley between Elk Ridge and South Mountain with incredible sunrises, sunsets and starlit night skies. Walk out to the fishing pond, or follow the trails around the pastures to meet the cattle grazing in our pastures. We have Scottish Highlands and Black Angus grazing as well as Alpacas. We also have beautiful peacocks on the property. We are a working farm so expect to see tractors and you may even see us baling hay or tending to the cattle. You may smell some animal smells which we work at keeping to a minimum but again, we are a working farm. It’s a true farm experience. Also, please keep in mind that during warm weather you may encounter some bugs. Gnats and flies are always a possibility and of course at times they can be worse than others. That can always be a possibility when camping or being outdoors. Bring bug spray, citronella and anything else to help with insects. If you stay by the pond you may hear frogs which personally I enjoy hearing but some may not. Consider bringing a generator and run a fan if you think the sound might bother you or some way to block sounds. We enjoy talking to our guests so feel free to stop us for a chat. At the RV sites you have 30 and 50 amp power as well as water. All the water spickets are potable and drinkable.

Camping in Maryland guide

Overview

From Atlantic beaches to Appalachian Mountains, Chesapeake fishing villages to sprawling state parks―Maryland serves up plenty of variety, and campers won’t have to search far to find a campground, cabin, or glampsite. Whether you’re vacationing along the Chesapeake Bay, hiking and backcountry camping in the northern mountains, or driving your RV along Scenic Byways, there’s an adventure to suit all tastes. Summer is the busiest time to visit, when crowds hit the beach resorts along the Atlantic coast, but the mild temperatures of spring and fall are ideal for camping and outdoor activities. Winters are cold and snowy, so opt for a cozy cabin rental instead.

Where to go

Western Maryland

Misty mountain peaks, dense forests, and sparkling lakes await in Western Maryland, which stretches from Hagerstown to Deep Creek Lake. Follow the Mountain Maryland scenic byway through the Allegheny Mountains, rent a canal boat along the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, or go whitewater rafting in Swallow Falls State Park. Seasonal highlights include the fall foliage hikes around Oakland, summer swimming and boating on Deep Creek Lake, and hitting the ski slopes in McHenry.

Central Maryland

Sitting pretty between Appalachian peaks and Chesapeake Bay shores, Maryland’s capital region has outdoor escapes within easy reach of both Baltimore and Washington D.C. Take your RV on a drive through history along the Historic National Road, running all the way from Baltimore into the western mountains; hike a 40-mile stretch of the Appalachian Trail; or enjoy wine tasting along the Piedmont Wine Trail. Camping favorites include the Cunningham Falls and Susquehanna state parks.

South Maryland

Picturesque coastal towns, Civil War sites, and golf courses pepper the western shore of Chesapeake Bay, where you can enjoy fishing, birding, and oyster tasting to your heart’s content. Snag a riverside campsite along the Potomac River, enjoy beachside walks in the Point Lookout State Park, or hunt for fossils in the Calvert Cliffs State Park.

Eastern Shore

Vacationers flock to Ocean City, where there are enough sandy beaches, golf courses, and boardwalk amusements to keep you busy all summer long. Nearby, there are beachside campgrounds and herds of wild horses to admire at Assateague Island National Seashore, or you can head over to the Chesapeake Bay shore to paddle around the marshes, enjoy birdwatching in the Blackwater National Wildlife, or rent a rustic cabin at Janes Island State Park.
