Frequently Asked Questions

What amenities are available at Camp Merryelande Family Beach Campground?

Camp Merryelande offers a beautiful waterfront setting with beach access as its primary attraction. The campground features basic amenities, though many facilities appear to be older. The grounds themselves are spacious with water views, but visitors should be prepared for potentially noisy conditions as music can sometimes be loud. While the natural setting is impressive, the maintenance of facilities may not meet everyone's expectations. For specific amenity details like hookups, bathhouses, or recreational facilities, it's advisable to contact the campground directly before your visit.

How do I find Camp Merryelande and what is the exact address?

Camp Merryelande is located at 15914 Camp Merryelande Rd, Piney Point, MD 20674. The campground sits on a scenic waterfront location in Southern Maryland. To reach it, you'll drive to Piney Point, which is in St. Mary's County. The property is situated at the end of Camp Merryelande Road, providing waterfront views.

Are vacation cottages available at Camp Merryelande?

Yes, Camp Merryelande does offer vacation cottages as accommodation options beyond traditional camping. However, potential guests should note that some accommodations have been described as showing signs of age and may benefit from updating. The cottages provide an alternative for visitors who prefer not to tent camp or use an RV.
