Weekend Trip to Bears Den Campground

We had a wonderful time and would absolutely come back! The trails were perfect, the views were amazing, and each site has so much to offer with seating and large fire rings to keep warm by on chilly nights!

Weekend Trip to Taylors Landing Camping Club

Great Location excellent host, incredible view and awesome nearby treasure!

Weekend Trip to Taylors Landing Camping Club

★★★★★ We had an unforgettable stay at this hillside campsite! The view from the site is absolutely breathtaking, with sweeping vistas that made every sunrise and sunset magical. The nearby explorable cave was a thrilling adventure for our group, adding a unique twist to our trip. We also loved the walking path along the historic C&O Canal, rich with fascinating history and perfect for leisurely strolls. The host was incredibly kind, responsive, and an excellent communicator, ensuring our stay went smoothly. Everyone in our group had a fantastic time—highly recommend this gem of a campsite!

Weekend Trip to Kitchen Girl Farm

I loved camping at Kitchen Girl Farm. It is stunning out there. We stayed at the site next to the barn and used the grill and got to hang out by the blooming daffodils. In the morning we woke up and made coffee and went on a little walk around the property. It was so peaceful and the historic barn is so beautiful. Such a pleasant stay so close to Baltimore but you feel so tucked away in the country.

Weekend Trip to Bears Den Campground

Up there for a PATC meeting and the weather forced me indoors for the night. I can't comment on the campsite, but the bunkhouse was great. Clean and comfy place to lay your head on a cold rainy night. Glen an co. are great and keep that place looking good

1 night at Bears Den Campground

It was a nice Campground. I enjoyed my stay. Camp host was friendly, although she "thought I was someone else"

1 night at Kitchen Girl Farm

Perfect landing after a long drive. Fire pit ready and small kitchen with all the amenities we needed. Sweet spot!

1 night at Estes Place

Devyn is a wonderful host. He responds quickly and respectfully. I was able to get over to the spot within a few hours of booking for a last minute accommodation. The directions are precise and accurate. The spot itself is the top of a hill that I had all to myself! There is a very clean outhouse that’s super convenient. There is a fire ring but during my visit a fire ban was in place which is completely understandable. This trip is a working trip and Devyn managed to set me up with WiFi which he will be bundling as an awesome add on for those who need it. Devyn also provided me with great recommendations for all things local. My dog spotted some wild turkeys while on one of the trails within the grounds. The trails have markers and there’s even a map showing them. As a single woman traveler, this spot felt private and safe. Would absolutely recommend.

2 nights at Old Soul Farm

Peaceful stay, enjoyed having the animals by me. Convenient to Gettysburg and Catherine was a great host. Having a portapotty there is also a convenience.

1 night at Beespoke Farms

Beautiful place! Very quiet. We rented both cabins. A lot of animals. We made a tour and were able to interact with alpacas, chickens, sheeps etc. The sunset and sunrise were amazing. Michael and CJ are good hosts and were always attentive to anything we might need. We will definitely go back there this year. Thank you!

1 night at HUNTER'S PARK BY DC

Everyone was friendly, the site and potties were very clean, and the creek was great!

Weekend Trip to Riverside Farm by the Monocacy

I loved the tent camping experience at Riverside Farm (North Site). The owner was very responsive, which made the stay even better. I also appreciated its closeness to Cunningham Falls State Park, where we enjoyed a hiking trip.

Weekend Trip to Old Soul Farm

Beautiful farm to camp on. It was such a peaceful time. I look forward to returning. Thank you for such a great spot to spend the first nice day of spring.

Weekend Trip to Willows Farm

Curtis is an amazing host, gave us a very warming welcoming & replied within a reasonable time both times I had a question. The farm looks beautiful, we only stayed for a night & had to leave early so we did not had enough time to explore the place but waking up to the birds chirping, the cows mooing & no cars noise was such a refreshing morning. I highly recommend buying steaks or ribs from him. Meat tastes amazing (everyone loved it), we had to order twice to bring some home. On the side note, make sure to ask them to defrost the meat if you plan on cooking it there. Will definitely go back sometime soon. Other reviews were not wrong about the cleanest pit toilet I’ve seen when camping.

Weekend Trip to Willows Farm

Beautiful 360 degree view at site #1. well kept campsite and grounds. Convenient to Frederick and New Market. Ran into friendly owner while walking dogs, he pointed out how you could see Big roundtop and little roundtop at Gettysburg in the distance which was really cool.

Weekend Trip to Bears Den Campground

I love staying at Bear Den campsites ,always enjoy our trips there... such a beautiful area and everyone involved are so friendly I highly recommend

Weekend Trip to Bears Den Campground

I loved this piece of land it was peaceful and gorgeous

Weekend Trip to Beespoke Farms

My husband and I booked these A frames for my one year olds birthday. We had the BEST time. CJ and his daughter River were SO welcoming and sweet. They made us feel right at home! It was amazing to unplug from our busy lives, be around animals and spend family time. 10/10 recommend!! We will definitely be back!

Weekend Trip to Riverside Farm by the Monocacy

We loved campsite #5! Cozy spot with river access and beautiful sunset views - the only con is the sound of cars from a nearby highway. Otherwise, a relaxing place to spend a weekend

Weekend Trip to Riverside Farm by the Monocacy

Site two was wonderful, with lots of space and privacy, even without any leaves growing on the trees (yet). Other campsites were arranged so that we didn’t have a direct sight line to any other campers. It was very easy to navigate to the site using the directions and signage provided. Site two has easy access to the creek which our dog Archie LOVED, and it was a very short walk down a well maintained path to the riverside, which Archie loved even more. We got to see foxes, bats, owls, and a heron all on site. Our pup didn’t want to leave, so we started planning our next visit to Riverside Farm on the way home!

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.

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.

I will more often be home than not, I will communicate with you about that around your stay. Sometimes I"ll come down to the river frontage if I drop in for a float .Also, we all get around on four wheelers and UTV's. So you will hear them from time to time. If I am home, please feel free to come up if you have any concerns/questions or to say hi! :) *Please note, you can normally get to this site without a 4 wheel drive vehicle. However, when the river is high it will sometimes flood the low water bridge where it crosses the Cacapon. If this is the case during your stay, I will provide all necessary information regarding projected river levels and directions. I will also offer a full refund if the bridge is impassable. If I do not respond soon after your inquiry, it's because I am without reception. if your inquiry expires in 24 hours, I will still get back to you! Thanks in advance for your patience.

Sacred Roots Herbal Sanctuary

11 sites · Lodging, Tents32 acres · Shepherdstown, WV

Looking for a personal retreat or get away ? Escape to our beautiful, RUSTIC 32 acre wild homestead / farm. A lovely balance between wild and tame. We are 10 minutes from the Potomac River, 10 minutes from Opequon Creek, 20 from Antietam Creek and 30 minutes from the Shenandoah River. Harper's Ferry is 30 minutes way and downtown Historic Shepherdstown is just down the road. We are also close to several state parks. - What do we mean by "RUSTIC" ? The camping experience we offer is about unplugging from the modern world , getting back to basics, slowing down and re-connecting with the land. Simply put, this is CAMPING .... not glamping. (Our Cosmic Cottage is also rustic, despite the amenities that come with it). - CAMPSITES and TREEHOUSE - No electricity or wifi on the land. Campsites and TREEHOUSE are nestled in the woods. So although your vehicle will be parked within 50 ft or so from site, you cannot pull directly up to the site and get any closer because of the trees. - SHOWER and PORTA POTTY - roughly a 5 minute or less walk from sites to shower and / or porta potty. Shower hours are 8 am- to 8 pm. The shower has hot and cold running water . You can drive to the shower if you need to. - RESPONSE TIME - This is a working herb farm/ sanctuary and we so do not always have our phones on us. We will make every effort to respond to you within a few hours. Please be patient and you will receive a response. -BOOKING - If you are interested in booking and / or availability, go to the HIPCAMP BOOKING CALENDAR and enter the dates you are interested in. for the most up to date accurate info on availability. - Feel free to wander through the herb gardens, eat your meals in the garden pavilion (we have picnic tables there and hammocks), get your Zen on in the meditation hut , and stroll through the woodland medicine path where we grow endangered and at at risk plant plants. (heads up.. the woodland medicine path goes to seed by the Fall and is usually munched down by the deer by then, but is still a nice short stroll in the woods).
