    RV campgrounds near Glenn Dale range from full-hookup urban parks to big-rig-friendly sites with 50-amp service, giving travelers flexible options within 30 miles. Cherry Hill Park in College Park provides level pull-through sites with 50-amp full hookups, water, sewer, and gravel pads within 10 miles of Glenn Dale. Sites include picnic tables, fire rings, and some feature brick patios with cafe tables. Prince William Forest RV Campground in Triangle, Virginia offers pull-through sites with 30-amp electric, water hookups, and trash service about 30 miles southwest. "Most sites are pull through and are close together. Almost all sites have some tree cover, and some of the trees could use a trim along the roads," noted one reviewer about Prince William Forest. Bar Harbor RV Park & Marina in Abingdon accommodates big rigs with 50-amp and 30-amp service, full hookups, and 91 sites on paved pads.

    Several RV parks near Glenn Dale remain open year-round, including Cherry Hill Park and Camp Meade RV Park in Laurel, which offers big-rig friendly sites with 50-amp service, water, sewer, and trash. Dump stations are available at most campgrounds, though locations vary—Cherry Hill includes full hookups at most sites while Greenbelt Park Campground provides a dump station but lacks electrical hookups. Cell service quality fluctuates between parks, with strong coverage at Cherry Hill but spotty Wi-Fi that "doesn't reach sites in the back of the campground," according to visitor feedback. When navigating to campgrounds like Bar Harbor RV Park, larger rigs should exercise caution as "you have to drive through a residential neighborhood to reach Bar Harbor, so big rigs take care/caution." Most parks accept pets with designated exercise areas, though some enforce restrictions with prominent signage.

      Ramblin' Pines

      Good location to Baltimore/Frederick Attractions

      We stay at Ramblin Pines because it is close to family and a good proximity to visiting Baltimore and Frederick. The campground is quite large with lots of seasonal sites but there are some transient spaces that can accommodate big-rigs. In addition to RV sites, there are tent sites and cabins. 

      We stayed in one of the transient sites (#FR14) across from the RV storage lot. It was a long gravel back-in with 50-amp FHU. The water hook-up is in a pit so it doesn’t freeze so look under the cover. It can be a bit difficult to reach and you have to get on the ground to hook-up. Based on the location of the spigot, we were not able to attach our water filter (we drank the tap water anyway and it was good). The electric worked fine and were able to reach the sewer with our 20’ hose. The view out of our front window was of the storage lot which was not the most scenic. However, parking in the FR row is the easiest place for big-rigs to park since some roads in the park are tight and hard to navigate with the trees and with the two-way traffic. 

      There are lots of amenities and it seems some people come here for the activities and things to do. It is a destination for many campers. They have lots of themed events, the most popular being the entire month of October celebrating like Halloween. They set up a haunted walk through the woods, have pumpkin carving, trick or treating, a costume contest, haunted hayride, and site decoration contest every weekend. If you want to camp on the weekends– book early because we found it very difficult to get a reservation during October and you have to pay in full and there are no refunds for cancellations. Other weekends have live music, bingo, hayrides, cornhole tournaments, crafts, and more. Basically, there is something every weekend. 

      Huge fishing pond, shuffleboard, horseshoes, large dog park with agility, game room, playgrounds, jump pillow, heated swimming pool, and exercise room (which was decent but didn’t have a television to occupy your time), 18-hole mini golf. A short but nice hiking trail winds through the woods and is nice for walking dogs. There is a large covered pavilion with picnic tables for big gatherings. There is free Wi-Fi but it doesn’t reach sites in the back of the campground. Wi-Fi is great if you are near the office/store. The camp store is fairly large with some food/beverage items, t-shirts, large amount of RV supplies, and misc. other items. There is a coffee maker with free coffee.

      Prince William Forest RV Campground — Prince William Forest Park

      Convenient

      Campground is close (ish) to the DC area. It is easy and convenient to get to. Almost all sites are pull through and are close together. Most have some tree cover (and some of the trees could use a trim along the roads). Some long term guests occupy the back sites which have sewer.

      Close to Prince William Forest which is a fantastic National Parks forest.

      Att coverage is good.

      Playground is nice.

      Greenbelt Park Campground — Greenbelt Park

      Close to DC, Quiet, and Pretty

      Greenbelt, MD: (Scale 1- bad, 5-Very good (70 yr olds in 17’ trailer) Overall Rating: 4.5 Price: About $12 w our senior pass. Usage during visit: 50 % during week Site Privacy: Most inner loop sites are not very good. However, our inner loop site was very private. Most inner loop sites lack privacy. Pull Through” sites are more like pull over sites. The picnic table privacy is often not very good for the pull over sites. This is because the adjacent back in site is deeper with picnic table not blocked by the trailer.
      Site Spacing: Some are close. Check the map. Site surface: black top Reservations: Yes. We were able to change our site upon arrival on Rec.gov. Campground Noise: Very quiet.
      Road Noise: None Through Traffic: Not a problem if the site is in a loop. Electricity: No Water: Available at a few spigots and at the washbasins at the bathrooms Sewer: No Dump: Yes Generators: 6AM till 10PM Bathroom: Old but clean. Showers: Old but clean. Cirtains Pull Throughs: Some “pull over spots”. I have a pic or two of good ones in the D loop.
      Cell Service (Verizon): Great. Setting: 10 mins from subway for DC access. Great way to get to DC. Located in a deciduous forest serving as a pleasant getaway for locals.
      Weather: It was cool during our stay.
      Bugs: No problems yet. Solar: Most sites are not adequate.
      Host: They are friendly and very courteous. Notes: Amazing that there is such a pretty place so close to DC. This must be a great getaway for locals . …. We did not walk the park trails , but there are some.

      Bull Run Regional Park

      Great Stay at Bull Run Reg. Park

      Great Park, friendly staff, clean facilities. We stayed with our Pop Up for two nights at an electric -supported site. Portable water and dumping station located at the camp store. We stayed at site 146 on the first caul-de-sac off the first loop just another site away from the bath house (which was pretty clean). We got rained on the first night so things got a little muddy but nothing out of hand. Tons of free activities for the kiddos facilitated by the camp staff over the weekends. Face-painting, ice cream sundaes, S'Mores, hay rides and a rock wall. Park has a lot of things to do as well just outside the campground. We took a try at disc golf which was a lot of fun. Pet friendly. We'll be back!

      Louise F. Cosca Regional Park

      Nice small campground

      This campground is about 25 sites. Only 5 sites have electric (2, 5, 18, 24, 25)but all 25 sites have water hookup. Weekends are some what noisy because of the games across the street in the park. This is not a gated campground so anyone can come through and have a tour. Park Police patrol the campground 2 times a day. Also the bathrooms are clean, their are 2 stalls and 1 shower, cleaned daily by park rangers. Raccoons run wild at night flipping trash can lids on your campsite hunting for food. Use repel spray to keep the raccoons off your site. Site 24 and 25 are very close together but the other sites are at a distance however, 6 of the 25 sites are unleveled so tent camping is probably the only option. This is not big rig friendly but there are pull through sites but the roads are very narrow and there is only 1 way in and 1 way out (same entrance) there is a dump station at the beginning of the campground with access to water as well. Free of charge. This is a quiet campground and it's cheap for maryland residents and about $20 for non-resident. There is no registration on site it's online only. www.pgparksdirect.com

      Bar Harbor RV Park & Marina

      RV Park surrounded by water!

      Our first visit (March 2018) was just prior to peak season (lower rates) and we had a site literally 10 ft. from the water! Full hook ups and sites were a little close, but nice. There seemed to be a lot of long term/permanent residents, but most sites along the waterfront remained open. The campground seemed to stress pet restrictions both in the rules section of their registration packet and signage around the grounds. There was a pet exercise/walking area, but could use some sprucing up. However, no one really made an issue of walking your dog around the campground and as the weekend came around, more and more dogs were around.

      You have to drive through a residential neighborhood to reach Bar Harbor, so big rigs take care/caution. Would like to try Bar Harbor again sometime.

      Cherry Hill Park

      Awesome Campground near Washington, D.C.

      We had another great stay at Cherry Hill Park in College Park, MD. 

      We stayed in a level pull-thru site(#1715) with picnic table on a paver patio, iron table and chairs, clean gravel surface, grill, and fire pit. The site was just big enough for our motor home and Jeep. Full hook-ups with 50-amp service all worked fine. 

      If you’re visiting Washington, this is the place to stay. They offer a daily charter bus plus the Metro bus stops at the campground entrance. And if you have a car, it’s about 35-minutes drive time(maybe a bit longer with traffic). 

      To be honest, it’s a great place to stay even if you’re not visiting D.C. They have two swimming pools, a cafe, playgrounds, well-stocked camp store, delivery of firewood, ice, and cafe orders, and a concierge to help with travel and tourist sites. 

      The entire park is clean and well-maintained. 

      THINGS I ESPECIALLY LIKED: 

      1. Proximity to Washington, D.C. 

      2. Excellent condition and clean 

      3. Great staff to help with making the most of your stay

      Oak Ridge Campground — Prince William Forest Park

      Spacious Sites

      Oak Ridge NP unit in Prince Williams Forest Park: what a beautiful place to spend the fall day. It’s quiet, not very busy at all, and nice sites. This is a pretty good place to be if you’re going to visit DC. This is our second time and that’s what we did on our last stay here. However, Greenbelt common north east of DC, is a much better place for DC visit. There, you can take the train shuttle into the city was a short drive from the campground. (Scale 1- bad, 5-Very good (70 yr olds in 17’ trailer). I rate based on desire for at least a moderate wilderness type experience w at least some camp site privacy. Overall Rating: 4.5 Price 2023: $10 w interagency pass Usage during visit: very low Site Privacy: sites are in an open Oak Forest Site Spacing: Great. Very large sites Site surface: blacktop. Reservations: Required Campground Noise: Very quiet, both of our stays. Road Noise: none. This campground is far into the forest off, away from public road. Through Traffic in campground: no reason for through traffic. Electric Hookup: no. Sewer Hookup: no. Dump Station: no. Potable Water Available: Yes. There is a water Spicket at the bathrooms. There is also a wash station room attached to the bathrooms. Generators: allowed. Bathroom: clean. Showers: not in all bathrooms. Ever, there is a very clean shower/bathroom facility near the handicap spot, A25. Pull Throughs: Not sure. Did not see any. Cell Service (AT&T): 1 to 2 bars. Setting: deep into a beautiful Oak Forest. Weather: a very nice fall day. Highs in the 70s lows in the 50s Bugs: no mosquitoes. Too cold. Solar: doesn’t look like there will be enough sunshine through the trees for a good, fixed, solar panel, solar absorption. Host: not sure if one is present. Rig size: large rigs are OK. Nice deep sites. Just be careful what you say you choose Sites: I have pictures of very nice sites located near our campsite. Looks to me almost all sites are large and spacious. Some sites do not have picnic tables placed as well as they could be. Other than that the sites are fantastic.

      Bull Run Regional Park

      Site #133 — Great site once you figure out the best way to get into it

      We stayed in site #133 with our 34'10" travel trailer/toy hauler. Overall, we really like the site. It's spacious, fairly level, heavily wooded, and feels surprisingly private. There's plenty of room around the camper, and although there are other campsites and cabins nearby, the trees provide a lot of separation. We had a nice large area for our chairs, fire pit, picnic table, and dogs. The biggest thing to know about #133 is the approach. We were instructed to pass the site, go around the loop, and then make a left turn into it. With our nearly 35' trailer, that would have required an extremely tight, almost 90-degree turn between the trees, and we did not feel we could safely make it. There is actually visible damage on one of the trees at the entrance, so it appears others may have had difficulty with the turn as well. Instead, we approached from the opposite direction and positioned the camper with our doors facing the main campsite area. That put the water and electric hookups on the opposite side, but our hoses and cord were long enough to run underneath the camper and reach without a problem. Once we figured that out, the site worked very well for us. I initially thought we probably wouldn't choose #133 again because of the awkward setup, but after spending the weekend here, I would. Now that we know how to approach and position our trailer, it really is a nice site. If you're bringing a longer travel trailer, just be prepared to do a little maneuvering and make sure your water hose and electrical cord have enough length if you decide to orient your camper the way we did.

    Historic sites: Prince William Forest RV Campground provides convenient access to regional attractions. "Prince William Forest National Park is a fantastic National Parks forest," notes a camper, while another mentions, "Civil War National Parks nearby. DC just up the road.

Some sites you are right on the waters edge," writes one visitor. Another adds, "No swimming in the Bush River but you can fish from the pier or right from your site."

    What campers like

    Clean facilities: Campers at Bull Run Regional Park frequently mention the bath facilities. "I'll go again just for the showers. Locking doors, individual stalls. Best camping showers I've ever had," states one reviewer.

    Proximity to DC: Greenbelt Park Campground earns praise for its location. A visitor explains, "What we did, since we don't have a tow car, is we packed up and drove to the Greenbelt station about 5 miles away, parked there for the day, and took the green line into town." Another notes, "The great thing about it is that you can spend entire days at the always-free Smithsonian museums and still fall asleep in the woods."

    Wooded settings: Despite being near urban areas, campgrounds maintain forested environments. At Hollofield Area Campground, a camper appreciated "the quiet, understated beauty of the forestry around the perfectly level campsite," while another mentioned, "when you are at your campsite, you really are in the middle of the woods."

    What you should know

    Reservation requirements: Most rv parks near Glenn Dale, Maryland require advance bookings, especially during peak seasons. At Hollofield Area Campground, "The campground and park fill up on the weekends but are nearly empty during the week."

    Weather considerations: Spring camping can bring challenges at some locations. At Bar Harbor RV Park, campers should prepare for seasonal conditions: "Weekend was cold but the park was pretty full. We're told to turn off and unhook water the night it dropped below freezing."

    Access restrictions: Several campgrounds have specific entry requirements or restrictions. Fort Belvoir Travel and RV Camp requires "military credentials" according to reviewers, while Bull Run Regional Park enforces a "2-night minimum stay. Even mid-week. In APRIL for gosh sakes!"

    Tips from RVers

    Site selection: At Prince William Forest RV Campground, "lots are really staggered/set back from each other so feels like you have more space. Average lot size in general, but the set back feels like you have more space."

    Leveling challenges: Many campgrounds require preparation for uneven terrain. A reviewer at Bull Run noted, "My site had a slight slope, but was easily overcome using additional blocks on the low side to get the trailer level," while at Fort Belvoir, "our site wasn't fully level, so bring plenty of leveling blocks."

    Seasonal utilities: RV parks around Glenn Dale vary in water availability during colder months. A Bar Harbor RV Park visitor advised, "They do fill propane but there's a Tractor Supply about 20min away that will also fill them," providing alternatives for winter campers.
