Cumberland MD. Campgrounds 1 & 2 operates as a private facility offering both hookup and primitive sites at $35 per night, with reservations available through an on-site system. The campground sits on open grassy terrain along the Potomac River, providing multiple access options including drive-in, walk-in, and boat-in entry points.
Sites spread across the property with varying levels of spacing and amenities. "Sites along the river are best in my opinion," notes Roger W., who found the waterfront locations most appealing during his November visit. The campground features full hookups including electric, water, and sewer connections on select sites, while others offer dry camping with access to drinking water and restroom facilities. A dump station serves RVs without sewer hookups.
The property connects to the C&O Canal Trail system, placing hikers within walking distance of Cumberland's National Park Visitor Center and associated museum facilities. Fall visitors report particularly striking foliage displays, with Jacob W. describing "Peak fall foliage and view was spectacular" during his October stay. The open terrain provides good solar exposure for panels and clear night skies, though minimal shade exists across most sites.
Road access requires navigating an entrance partially blocked by stumps, which some larger RV owners find challenging. The grass surface can become soft during wet conditions, potentially complicating setup for heavier rigs. Cell service reports indicate good AT&T coverage throughout the property. Campers seeking additional options in the region can explore campsites near Cumberland or nearby facilities like Evitts Creek.
Book directly on-site or contact the campground ahead of arrival, particularly during peak fall foliage season when demand increases.
