Glamping in Maryland

·

From the forested slopes of the Appalachian Mountains in the west, through the trout-filled rivers of central Maryland, to the white-sand beaches and marshlands of Chesapeake Bay—it’s easy to see why this small state is nicknamed “America in Miniature”. Glamping in Maryland lets you explore the wilderness without missing out on your home comforts, whether it’s cozying up in a glamping hut or treehouse in Garrett County, sleeping in a traditional yurt amid acres of farmland, or spending a night in a vintage Airstream. Summer glampers make a beeline for the coast, where you can book an air-conditioned cabin right by the beachside or stay on the water in a traditional houseboat. In spring or fall, check into a log cabin near the Cunningham Falls State Park or rent a mini-cabin at Deep Creek Lake State Park, where you can enjoy mountain biking, fall foliage walks, or snowshoeing, depending on the season.

In Maryland, glamping is a type of outdoor stay combining camping's nature setting with the luxury and convenience of comforts like beds, warm showers, or electricity. When glamping in Maryland, there's no need to bring your own tent—instead, glampers may stay the night in a cabin, a vintage Airstream, a canvas bell tent, a yurt, or even a treehouse.

With 15,000 wooded acres, Pocomoke River State Park’s claim to fame is its stand of loblolly pine and cypress swamps bordering a wild and scenic river. It’s divided into two parts, Shad Landing (south side) and Milburn Landing (north side), which are about a 25 minute drive apart. The combination of ecosystems means the park is home to a plethora of plant and animal life including white dogwood and pink laurel trees, river otters, bald eagles and over 50 species of fish.There is no shortage of traditional camping activities, but the park also boasts an Olympic-sized swimming pool in case you decide “I can’t take this no more," and make like Squints from the Sandlot. The park's name may mean black water, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t take your baby down to Pocomoke where you can get there fast and then take it slow.
