Washington DC Vacation
★★★★★ Washington, DC Vacation
Cherry Hill Park may be the greatest campground we’ve stayed at yet!
Located less than 3-miles from I-95, about 40-minutes drive time from downtown Washington, DC, and about 35-minutes from Baltimore’s Inner Harbor, this park is ideally situated for a capitol vacation. We spent 9-days in mid-July and it really wasn’t enough.
The staff and the array of services available is awesome. They offer concierge assistance with sightseeing tours and mass transit(Metro). They run an express bus to/from DC each weekday which is reasonably priced. Their day and night tours are informative and fun.
The cafe offers snacks and ice cream at the cafe, at the pool, or delivered to your site.
The camp store was well-stocked with food and drinks, souvenirs, and basic supplies.
They charge your purchases to your site(cafe, tours, store) which is smart and convenient.
The pools are clean and offer a nice cooldown after a day about DC.
For those without RVs, there are cabins and cottages to rent. There are indoor and outdoor reception facilities. For a few hours a day a few days each week, they offer a tram around the park. Nightly tractor rides are fun and there’s mini golf, ponds, and walking trails. The list goes on and on.
Our site (#1715) was level and the full hookups all worked fine. Beside our gravel site, there was a small brick patio with cafe table and chairs in addition to the picnic table, fire ring, and grill.
Everywhere I looked, I saw staff working on cleaning and maintenance— and all this work shows. The place isn’t fancy, but really well maintained and clean.
This is a great place and we can’t wait to go back!
THINGS I LIKED:
-
Lots of staff to help make the most of your stay.
-
Clean and well maintained property and facilities.
-
Proximity to DC and Baltimore.
THINGS I’D CHANGE:
- My only negative is the lousy wifi. It’s 2022, and I feel having reasonable wifi should be standard. It’s important to check in with work or watch movies. Come on, folks!
