5 nights at Strawberry Crossroads

Amazing place to go it's beautiful with so much to explore.

Weekend Trip to Strawberry Crossroads

The camp space was awesome, wish I had more time to explore the property. I was in for a weekend basketball tournament and this was a great way to spend the evening relaxing. I frequent many campgrounds and have to say the shower experience was almost the best. Love me a game of horseshoes as well, nice touch! Just watch for tics, as any place! Thank you TJ!

1 night at Happy Heart Highlands and Alpacas

Our doggies loved meeting the Alpacas--these animals make such a wild clucking sound that had my puppies entranced. I didn't know till my visit there that my doggies spoke Alpaca! Kimberly pours her heart into this property. She is so gracious and accommodating. Her guests comfort and enjoyment at Happy Heart Highlands and Alpacas are her top priority. Be sure to arrive on a clear day to enjoy the starscape!

5 nights at Hawkwood Farm

We love the beautiful space! And our hosts were amazing and so helpful. We would definitely camp here again.

4 nights at Fiddlers Green Farm

Really lovely location and friendly host! Lot of space.

Weekend Trip to Maple Grove Farm

It was great camping in the pasture. The sheep dogs are very friendly and well behaved. They really do snuggle up and love a good game of fetch. The alpaca, donkey, horse, and sheep are friendly too and great for entertaining kids. We will definitely return.

Weekend Trip to Strawberry Crossroads

Great experience! 1 of a kind view of the stars on a clear night. Plenty of open areas to pick from and quick responses from TJ. Clean bathrooms with hot showers. 100% recommend.

Weekend Trip to Strawberry Crossroads

Went back and visited early in the season this time and the experience was just as amazing. Gorgeous sunrise, lots of turtles and frogs to see. Great space, when the bathrooms needed restocking it was done almost instantly. Definitely our families favorite spot for the year!

Weekend Trip to Strawberry Crossroads

Great experience, excellent host. Definitely will be back

Weekend Trip to Taylors Landing Camping Club

It was right on the C&O canal which was really nice. I recommend site 11 since it’s on the edge of a row of campsites and you won’t have other people on both sides. Host provided more than plenty of firewood.

Weekend Trip to Sleepy Hollow Campground

The a-frame cabin was very clean, easy to keep warm with the space heater, and comfortable! The campground was busy, but this was too be expected on a holiday weekend. The campsites were just much closer together than I had expected. It was nice to have a trail near by to take short walks on. The bathhouse was clean. Angela said hello as I was leaving, and she was very kind!

Weekend Trip to Sleepy Hollow Campground

Sleepy Hollow was a wonderful camp for a weekend get away- especially if you're looking to spend time in the local state parks for hiking and boating without being tied to one in particular. Angela was a wonderful host and the improvements made to the campground are evident and made with love. Can't wait for our next visit!

Weekend Trip to Sleepy Hollow Campground

Angie is awesome. Very responsive and helpful. We loved camping here and would come back again

Enjoy watching the deer come out of the woods and meander along the stream and fields at dusk and return in the morning. Electric, water, fire pit and a Port a Pot is available even for rough campers. Pets welcome but must be on a leash or exercise pen or with their owners in some way while here for their safety. There is a large fenced yard for dogs that just have to run if needed. Glamorous camping with a furnished heated/cooled cabin is available for rent by the night for those who do not have camping equipment or do not want to rough it. For those that have been camping before and have all the equipment there is plenty of room for a tent or camper near the buildings or by the stream or woods. For RV owners there is 50amp electric service in the barn. You will need an RV extension cord to access it. I have a 100 ft RV ext. cord but it can be farther than that depending on where you park. Bring one of your own to be sure. It is a farm and not set up like an RV park with numerous outlets.

All of the fencing at Willows Farm is electric to keep our cattle and horse in and you will get shocked if you touch it. Please be mindful of this with your pets and children.

Camps at Evensong Farm

2 sites · Lodging132 acres · Sharpsburg, MD

Evensong Farm is a preserved historic farm adjacent to the Antietam National Battlefield. We have set up two, almost identical, sites on a 60 acre parcel of our farm which is very private for our campers, but allows access to the lovely Antietam Creek. The sites themselves are about 500 feet apart so, while they maintain privacy when booked by different parties, can also be booked together for group stays. We have been hosting campers at our "glampsites" since 2021. Each off-grid site has a 12x16 platform with a 10x12 canvas side wall tent, a firepit and chairs, a cooking area with a grill and sink for washing up, a picnic table and benches, and a private bathroom with a composting toilet and solar shower bag. The main tent is set up for 2 people, although 4 is possible. The sites can handle a max of 12 people, with the use of additional tents (BYO or you can set up some of ours). We provide an electronic camp guide to all of our campers that include our recommendations for things to do in the area, as well as camping tips and other handy info. Inside the tent you will find a queen size bed, side tables, and a cafe table and chair set. We have put down foam flooring and a carpet for your comfort and provide numerous battery powered lights, lanterns and fans. In cold months we can add a propane heater to keep the chill away. We also have some games, maps of the area, decks of cards, and a fire extinguisher. Stepping outside the tent you'll find our long rainfly creates a covered porch where you can relax on our provided chairs. There are additional chairs around the firepit and each firepit has a cooking grate so you can cook over your campfire. We provide one bundle of firewood (including kindling) per night with your reservation. We do sell additional firewood, if needed. In our kitchen area you will find a picnic table and chairs, 5 gallons of drinking water, a clean up table that includes a foot operated pump sink with an additional 5 gallons of washing water, a grill (one site has propane and the other has charcoal), trash and recycling bins, grill tools, lighters, plus dish and hand soaps. Our farm is a mile and a half from the town of Sharpsburg, MD, home of the Antietam National Battlefield (and Nutter's Ice Cream Shop).

Wild Yough Glamping Huts

4 sites · Lodging350 acres · Oakland, MD

Wild Yough is located in Southern Garrett County, Maryland very close to Herrington Manor State Park, Swallows Falls State Park, and the quaint mountain village of Oakland. The property adjoins thousands of acres of Garrett State Forest and hundreds of acres of state land along the Youghiogheny River. The world class Wisp resort and Deep Creek Lake are only minutes away. “Yough” is short for Youghiogheny River a state designated wild and scenic river which runs through the heart of the property. Wild Yough Glamping huts are part of more than 350 acres of private land, most of which is crisscrossed with hiking and biking trails. Youghiogheny is an Algonquin word meaning “a stream flowing in a contrary direction”, or in the case of the Yough, North toward Ohio Pyle and Pittsburgh. This section of the river is designated as a protected scenic corridor and you will feel the quiet isolation when sitting on the Crooked Butt Bench overlooking the big horseshoe bend in the river at the far back corner of our property. And if the river is low during your visit, feel free to wade across to the other side – Wild Yough owns the entire peninsula of land on the other side of the river and this is also bordered by State land.The river banks are steep on the property, but the fishing for small mouth bass is exceptional. There is a small turn around on the path just beyond Crooked Butt Bench where you can take out your canoe, kayak, or inner tubes after floating the 2+ miles from the Oakland bridge. Just be prepared to walk your water craft back up to the house or Glamping site as there is no motorized access to the river.If you like to lay on the rocks in the sun or take the kids for some wading in the river, the best place is the farthest to walk to. Take the trail to “High Bluff”, then cross the Snyder property line (Permission for trail access only – do not leave trail!), then descend down and cross the bridge across Herrington Manor Creek (a stocked trout stream!). Wild Yough property is to your right along the river and there is a great place for lying in the sun, doing some fishing, or just wading into the cool waters of the Yough on a hot summer day.Learn more about this land:The idea is simple- our glamping site will offer a true camping experience without all the hassles and fuss. With 350 acres of private ground, adjacent to thousands of acres of state park and forest, Wild Yough offers plenty of space to spread out, stretch your legs, watch the deer, and howl with the coyotes. You won’t be packed into a row of RV’s or tents where you can hear your neighbor snoring. You won’t have to set up camp in the rain. And you’ll never have to sleep on the ground! You’ll have your own heated hut, warm soft bed, and private space for long evenings around the campfire. And our bathhouse and pavilion facilities are designed with comfort, cleanliness and relaxation in mind. Oh yeah… large field for enjoying lawn games or just relaxing quietly under an endless blanket of evening stars.Each hut is furnished with a double bed, additional seating/pullout bed, cabin cooking center with stove, dining table, LED lighting, and a propane heater. Outside, each hut has comfortable chairs on the porch, a large picnic table, and a fire-ring/cooking grill with extra seating. And all this is just a short walk to the bath house and paviliion! Our bathhouse is designed to bring you all of the comforts of home, with modern, comfortable features which include full size showers, plenty of counter space, professional ventilation, and regular maintenance by our partners at Offlake Rentals. Additionally, we have outside water facilities and separate, deep sinks for washing dishes.
