Camping near Buckeystown, Maryland
Buckeystown sits in southern Frederick County, along the Monocacy River and within easy reach of the Catoctin Mountains, the C&O Canal, and the South Mountain ridge. That geography puts RV renters within a short drive of several established public campgrounds and one private riverfront park, without the long haul required to reach more remote parts of Appalachia.
The closest options combine Maryland state parks and a private site on the Potomac. Evergreen Point Village lies nearest to town, followed by Gambrill State Park on the Catoctin ridge west of Frederick, and Brunswick Family Campground on the Potomac River. Farther north near Thurmont, the Manor Area of Cunningham Falls State Park offers a smaller, quieter alternative to the park's larger William Houck loop. Greenbrier State Park, on South Mountain near Boonsboro, rounds out the list with lake access and a wooded campground.
Most sites in this area accommodate travel trailers and Class B or Class C rigs. Full hookups are limited, with a small number available only at Brunswick, and state park sites typically offer electric-only service at best. Cell service is patchy in the mountains.
Things to do around Buckeystown
Hiking is the anchor activity. The Catoctin Trail runs 27 miles from Gambrill State Park through Cunningham Falls State Park and into Catoctin Mountain Park, and Greenbrier State Park connects to the Appalachian Trail via nearby ridge routes on South Mountain. Cunningham Falls itself is a 78-foot cascade reached by a short lower trail or a steeper cliff route.
Water recreation is concentrated at two spots. Greenbrier State Park has a lake with a sand beach, swimming, and boat rentals. From Brunswick Family Campground, the C&O Canal towpath and the Potomac River allow biking, tubing, kayaking, and fishing directly from the property, with a boat ramp on site.
Historic sites within a short drive include Harpers Ferry National Historical Park, Antietam National Battlefield, and the Catoctin Iron Furnace ruins near the Manor Area campground.

The main camping season runs April through October. The William Houck Area of Cunningham Falls State Park opens at the beginning of April and closes at the end of October, and Greenbrier State Park's campsites operate on a similar April-to-October window. Brunswick Family Campground runs a longer season, opening in late March and closing in early November.
Summer is peak season. Weekends fill early at Greenbrier because of heavy day-use traffic at the lake, and advance day-use reservations are now required for weekends and holidays there from Memorial Day through Labor Day. Weekday stays are noticeably quieter. Fall brings strong foliage on the Catoctin ridge and cooler nights, which is a good window for RV renters who want less crowded sites.
Winter camping is limited. Most Maryland state park loops close by late fall, though the Manor Area of Cunningham Falls offers primitive camping from November through March with only a portable toilet available. Mountain roads inside Gambrill State Park and along South Mountain can be affected by snow and inclement weather from December through March.

Overall good time. Gray and black water were 2/3 full though and would have been nice to be empty. WiFi was ok in location but sometimes didn’t work. Maybe suspension does need a look over not horrible but slightly loose. Fresh water all the way full would be nice also. I tried to leave it cleaner than I got it as well for the delay on drop off but made sure to get here early this am.

We had such a fantastic time in this RV. It was in ideal size for our family of 5. We travelled from Maryland, through ohio, Indiana, Kentucky and Tennessee. It was nice to drive and didn't feel too big. Clean throughout and no major issues. The host was very helpful and responded super quick to queries. We hope to rent again in the future.

How to book
Maryland state park sites, including Gambrill State Park, both areas of Cunningham Falls State Park, and Greenbrier State Park, are reserved through the Maryland Park Service at parkreservations.maryland.gov or by calling 1-888-432-2267. Camping reservations open on a rolling basis several months in advance, so booking early for summer weekends is strongly recommended.
Camper cabins and electric sites go first at the Cunningham Falls loops. Holiday weekends require a three-night minimum stay that must include Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Non-resident and weekend surcharges apply on top of the base site rate.
Brunswick Family Campground is booked directly through its operator, River & Trail Outfitters, with a two-night minimum on Friday and Saturday and a three-night minimum on some holidays. Private sites and Hipcamp listings around Frederick County offer overflow options when state park loops sell out.
What to expect on-site
Maryland state park campgrounds in this area are wooded, with picnic tables, fire rings, and grills at each site. Bathhouses have flush toilets and hot showers during the main season. Electric hookups exist at a portion of sites, but full hookups are not available in the state parks. The Manor Area of Cunningham Falls has 21 basic sites and 10 electric sites, and both areas of Cunningham Falls include dump station access during the main season.
Black bears are present throughout the Catoctin and South Mountain areas. Food and garbage should be stored securely in a vehicle, never inside a tent. Alcohol is prohibited in Cunningham Falls campgrounds and throughout the park, with a permit exception at the Manor Area shelter.
Road noise from Route 15 is audible at the Manor Area, and train traffic passes near Brunswick Family Campground. Rigs longer than 30 feet may struggle with narrow interior loops at the Manor Area and should confirm site length before booking.
