Best RV Parks & Resorts near Odenton, MD

Cherry Hill Park in College Park provides full hookup RV sites with 50-amp service, water, and sewer connections on level pull-through sites with picnic tables and fire rings. The campground features paved roads suitable for larger motorhomes and offers amenities including two swimming pools, a cafe, and a well-stocked camp store. "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," noted one visitor. Camp Meade RV Park in Laurel accommodates big rigs with 50-amp hookups, water, and sewer connections on sites that are primarily gravel. Bar Harbor RV Park & Marina in Abingdon provides 91 sites with full hookups including 50-amp service, though navigation through residential neighborhoods requires caution for larger rigs.

Advance reservations are strongly recommended, especially during peak seasons and weekends when campgrounds fill quickly. Most RV parks in the region remain open year-round, though some amenities may be limited during winter months. Cell service varies by location, with Cherry Hill Park offering reliable coverage while more wooded campgrounds may have spotty reception. Dump stations are available at all the major RV parks, and many offer on-site propane filling services. Pet policies differ between parks—most allow pets but enforce leash requirements and designated pet areas. Based on reviews from The Dyrt, some waterfront sites at Bar Harbor RV Park require unhooking water connections during freezing temperatures. Prince William Forest RV Campground features pull-through sites but has limited WiFi connectivity according to recent visitor feedback.

    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

    Martinak State Park Campground

    Outstanding

    Martinak was a beautiful surprise. Lots of woods, leveled sites, clean facilities, no rowdy crowds. We had a great time. The park is pet friendly. The ranger was very vigilant and friendly. We met new friends and even attended a concert at their pavilion 🥰

    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

    Lake Fairfax Campground

    Weekend Trip

    Stayed for two nights with another family. They brought their travel trailer and our pop-up. The outer loop campsites are easily more level than the center loop. If leveling perfectly is a concern you may want to call ahead and ask before commiting to the inner loop. Electric hookup only. Bathhouse was very clean and the staff friendly. Water fill & Dump Station on the beach side of the bathhouse. This is a State Park so it's filled with activities. Great place to mountain bike as we noticed several groups camping and biking during our stay. We enjoyed the water park immensely. Ten of us in total with kids ranging from 18 months old to 13 years old. Everyone enjoyed the water park and the time we spent there. additional fee for access to the water park.


Guide to Odenton

Odenton, Maryland sits at approximately 157 feet above sea level, with a humid subtropical climate experiencing all four seasons distinctly. Summer camping temperatures typically range from 70-90°F with occasional thunderstorms common from May through September. Most rv campgrounds near Odenton remain accessible year-round with varying levels of amenity availability during winter months.

What to do

Hiking at Patapsco Valley: Hollofield Area Campground offers extensive trail access with multiple difficulty levels. "Took a fairly easy hike down to the river and even went for a swim. Loved it so much, I stopped on the way back home again!" noted Diana S., who appreciated the accessible nature trails directly from the campsite.

Fishing opportunities: Bar Harbor RV Park & Marina provides waterfront access for fishing enthusiasts. "You can fish from the pier or right from your site," reports Laure D., who visited the park in November. The campground includes dedicated fishing piers and waterfront sites where campers can cast directly from their chairs.

Military history exploration: Fort Belvoir Travel and RV Camp offers proximity to historical sites. "Eagle's nests were interesting," notes Mike H., who used the campground as a base for exploring. The camp's location provides convenient access to multiple military historical sites and monuments within a short drive.

What campers like

Convenient DC access: Cherry Hill Park earns praise for its strategic location. "Proximity to DC and surrounding areas can't be beat. Uber, Lyft, bus, shuttle. It takes about a half hour to get downtown to the monuments," explains Jennifer H., who found transportation options plentiful and reasonably priced.

Clean facilities: Ramblin' Pines maintains well-kept bathhouses and common areas. "Nice clean restrooms and showers. The grounds are well maintained and we found the staff was nice," reported Michelle L., who stayed at a primitive site. The campground's attention to cleanliness extends to all facilities despite high visitor volume.

Privacy options: Prince William Forest RV Campground offers variable site layouts. "Lots are really staggered/set back from each other so feels like you have more space," notes Megan K., appreciating the thoughtful site arrangement that creates a sense of seclusion even when the campground is busy.

What you should know

Reservation timing: Bull Run Regional Park often fills quickly, especially on weekends. "This campground was full of stuff to do and we didn't even get to do a lot of it," reports Bridget H., who recommends booking well in advance, particularly for cabins and popular summer weekends.

Flood considerations: Some campgrounds experience drainage issues during heavy rain. "There was a fairly heavy day of rain. Couple inches, I suppose, but nothing Biblical. The mouths of the metal culverts in our loop were bent downward from campers driving over them, which obstructed the flow. Result was lots of standing water at our campsite," Stuart O. observed at Bull Run Regional Park.

Seasonal variations: Most Odenton area RV parks operate year-round with varying amenities. "The pool was closed but looked nice," mentioned Laure D. about Bar Harbor RV Park during her late-season visit. Waterfront campgrounds often require unhooking water connections during freezing temperatures.

Tips for camping with families

Activity planning: Ramblin' Pines offers extensive children's activities. "It has a pool, jump pillow, mini golf, fishing pond, barnyard with goats, and multiple playgrounds," shares Sean M., who appreciated the variety of options for families with children of different ages.

Playground access: Consider campground layout when booking with children. "Only drawback is that there's only one playground that's awkwardly located," notes Yvonne B. about Bull Run Regional Park, suggesting families request sites closer to play areas when making reservations.

Natural play spaces: Some campgrounds incorporate nature into play areas. "There is a 'natural' playground in the loop, and then if you drive down further to the park entrance, there is a large playground for the kids," explains Jennifer S. about Hollofield Area Campground, describing the "natural playground" as "large rocks and overturned trees" that children enjoyed exploring.

Tips from RVers

Site leveling: Prepare for variable site conditions throughout Odenton area campgrounds. "Sites were mostly level," reports Bille W. about Prince William Forest RV Campground, though others note bringing extra leveling blocks for certain areas, particularly in older campgrounds with less-maintained sites.

Water connections: Waterfront sites at Bar Harbor RV Park require seasonal precautions. "Full hookup but we're told to turn off and unhook water the night it dropped below freezing," explains Laure D., highlighting the importance of weather awareness when camping near water during transitional seasons.

Navigation challenges: Some RV parks require careful driving through residential areas. "It is a gated park and nestled at the back of a quiet neighborhood," notes Laure D. about Bar Harbor RV Park & Marina, advising larger rigs to scout the route before arrival as the approach involves narrow residential streets that can be challenging to navigate.
