This is the definition of Glamping and certainly the finest around the area.
The property is around 100 acres, not far from the Patuxent River and has been in our family for nearly 80 years, we are the fourth generation to live on the farm. There is only one luxurious site available and you have complete privacy as the opening in the forest that the camp sits in is surrounded by forest.
A 10x20 deck holds a 10x12 canvas tent with a luxurious queen sized bed, all linens included. The bed is flanked by vintage nightstands and lamps. You have 2 USB outlets to keep your devices charged and a chandelier to brighten things up in the evening. A bar cabinet including a wine opener and ice bucket sits across for a comfortable vintage velvet chair and ottoman with a brass tray. A storage bench sits at the foot of the bed.
Outside you have a well equipped kitchen including a coffee percolator, pots and an iron frying pan. A small sink has cold running water to wash up and a separate bottled drinking water dispenser. The 2 burner stove is complete with an oven. A set of enameled tin dishes, mugs, reusable plastic glasses and flatware are stored in the kitchen cupboard. Eat at a glass topped table for 2 on the deck.
Your campfire pit has a grill and you can relax by the fire and watch the stars in the 2 lounging Adirondack chairs.
Just steps away from your deck is an out of this world outhouse with hot and cold running water at the sink, vintage lighting and mirror, towel racks with fluffy white linens, shampoo, conditioner and body lotion. A dryflush toilet, almost like your toilet at home is the centerpiece. Attached to the bathroom and just at the edge of the forest, is an incredible outdoor rain shower with hot and cold water.
You are surrounded by acres and acres of old forest and a creek or two to explore. There are maintained walking trails, most reserved for you to enjoy, all around the property.Harwood Hills is an historic tobacco farm in an area filled with historic properties, with beautiful views, lovely old tobacco barns, several miles of trails, a beautiful ancient forest and now the location of a very special glamping site. Nearby is the Patuxent River, with kayaking and canoeing. Though we are 30 minutes to DC and 40 to Baltimore we are under a dark sky for great star viewing. The wildlife here is amazing and you will wake up to owls and a beautiful sunrise nearly every morning. You will have the area completely to yourself, including quite a few of the farm and forest trails to enjoy as your own. The bathroom has hot and cold water at the sink and outdoor shower with a dryflush toilet.
