Camping near Burtonsville, Maryland
Burtonsville sits in Montgomery County between Washington, D.C. and Baltimore, putting RV travelers within a short drive of both cities and a cluster of parks in Prince George's, Howard, and Anne Arundel counties. The area suits travelers who want a base camp for the National Mall, the Smithsonian museums, Annapolis, and the Chesapeake Bay without staying inside the District itself.
Campground options split into two categories. Full-service private RV parks include Cherry Hill Park in College Park, Ramblin' Pines to the northwest near Woodbine, and the Washington DC / Capitol KOA Holiday in Millersville, all offering hookups, laundry, and family amenities. Public options include Greenbelt Park Campground, run by the National Park Service in Greenbelt, and Patapsco Valley State Park - Hollofield Area, run by Maryland's state park system near Ellicott City. Note that the Hollofield campground has been closed for renovations, so confirm its status with the Maryland Park Service before planning a stay.
Drive times from Burtonsville run roughly 20 to 40 minutes to most of these sites, and the Washington Metro's Green and Red lines connect nearby stations to downtown D.C.
Things to do near Burtonsville
The main draw is Washington, D.C. Families use campgrounds like Cherry Hill Park and Greenbelt Park as launch points for the National Mall, the Smithsonian museums, the U.S. Capitol, and the monuments. Cherry Hill Park offers guided sightseeing tours and shuttle service, and the Washington DC / Capitol KOA Holiday in Millersville runs a seasonal shuttle to the city between May and Labor Day.
Outdoor options are close by too. Greenbelt Park has hiking trails through pine, oak, and maple woods, including the Perimeter, Azalea, Dogwood, and Blueberry Trails. Patapsco Valley State Park stretches about 32 miles along the Patapsco River with a large network of hiking, mountain biking, and equestrian trails, plus river access for fishing and paddling. Annapolis and the U.S. Naval Academy sit to the east, and Baltimore's Inner Harbor and National Aquarium are a short drive north.

Spring and fall are the prime windows for RV travel in this part of Maryland. Late March through May brings cherry blossoms in D.C., mountain laurel and dogwoods in Greenbelt Park, and mild days that suit sightseeing. September through early November delivers cooler temperatures and fall color through the mixed hardwoods along the Patapsco and Anacostia watersheds.
Summer is peak season for family trips but also the busiest and most humid stretch. July is typically the wettest month, with afternoon thunderstorms common and heat indices often well above the air temperature. Ticks are active from spring through summer in wooded parks, so check for them after hiking. Booking demand spikes around cherry blossom peak in late March or early April, Memorial Day, Independence Day on the National Mall, and fall weekends.
Winter operations vary. Greenbelt Park Campground stays open year-round, and Cherry Hill Park and the Washington DC / Capitol KOA Holiday operate year-round as well, though the KOA pool and some seasonal amenities close outside the warm months. State park campgrounds run shorter seasons or may be closed for maintenance, so confirm dates before booking a shoulder-month trip.

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.
Ronald V. - Oct 2026
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.

Both VANessa and Vanessa were awesome. All the amenities are thoughtfully available. Van drove well and my son and I had a trip we’ll talk about for years and remember forever. Vanessa is a great communicator and great person. 5+ stars.
Will L. - Aug 2026
Had an amazing travel experience with VANessa and Vanessa was a joy to work with. So very accommodating. The van is beautiful and has everything you could want. Even my pup Seamus gave it two paws up!

How to book
Public and private sites use different reservation systems, so plan for two logins. Greenbelt Park Campground reservations run through Recreation.gov on a six-month rolling window, and all sites must be reserved in advance because walk-in payments and the cash drop box are no longer accepted. Patapsco Valley State Park - Hollofield Area is booked through the Maryland Park Service reservation portal when open, but the campground has been closed for renovations, so verify current status before planning around it.
Private parks book directly. Cherry Hill Park, Ramblin' Pines, and the Washington DC / Capitol KOA Holiday all take reservations on their own websites or by phone, with KOA also using the national KOA booking portal. Cancellation windows differ by park; the Capitol KOA requires seven days' notice for RV and tent sites and fourteen days for cabins. For spring bloom weekends, Independence Day, and fall color, book two to three months out.
What to expect
Sites vary widely in what they offer. Cherry Hill Park is a large full-service park with hookups, pools, laundry, an on-site cafe, and shuttle service, and it accepts big rigs. The Washington DC / Capitol KOA Holiday sits on about 50 acres of wooded countryside, accommodates rigs up to about 70 feet, and offers full hookups, a seasonal pool open from late May through early September, a jumping pillow, a playground, and a dog park.
Greenbelt Park Campground is a wooded National Park Service site with roughly 172 sites, flush toilets, hot showers, a dump station, and picnic tables and fire rings at each site, but no electric or water hookups. Roads are narrow one-way loops with some low branches, so measure your rig before booking.
Expect some road noise at parks close to the Beltway or I-95, cell service is generally good, and ticks are present in the wooded sites during spring and summer.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Burtonsville, MD
How much does it cost to rent an RV in Burtonsville, MD?
RV rental in Burtonsville is an affordable way to explore the Mid-Atlantic. On RVezy, expect travel trailers from around $90 to $175 per night, Class C motorhomes from $175 to $300, and larger Class A rigs from $250 to $450 nightly. Mid-week bookings in April or October often deliver the best cheap RV rental Burtonsville deals, since weekend rates rise around DC events and cherry blossom season. Pro tip: filter by Instant Book and message the host about weekly discounts. Many Burtonsville owners offer 10 to 15 percent off five-night-plus stays, perfect for a Shenandoah or Chesapeake Bay loop.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Burtonsville%2C%20MarylandDo I need a special license to rent an RV in Burtonsville, Maryland?
Good news: for nearly every RV rental in Burtonsville, your standard Class C Maryland driver's license (or your home state equivalent) is all you need. Maryland only requires a non-commercial Class B license for motorhomes with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) over 26,001 pounds, which is rare on RVezy and clearly noted on listings. You must be 25 or older to book, and ID verification happens securely through the RVezy platform. Visiting from abroad? Bring an International Driving Permit (IDP) alongside your home license. That's it, no CDL, no endorsements, no extra tests for the campervans and Class C motorhomes most Burtonsville guests choose.
mva.maryland.gov/drivers/Pages/recreational-vehicle-info.aspxIs protection included when I rent an RV in Burtonsville?
Yes, every RV rental in Burtonsville booked through RVezy includes a renter protection plan plus 24/7 roadside assistance, so you can hit I-95 or US-29 with real peace of mind. The protection plan covers physical damage to the RV during your trip, and you choose the coverage tier that fits your comfort during checkout. It is not traditional auto insurance, but it provides substantial financial protection if something unexpected happens on your Maryland RV trip. Pro tip: choose your protection tier based on the value of the rig and how far you are driving. A Skyline Drive trip feels much more relaxed with peak coverage in place.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat happens if I need to cancel my Burtonsville RV booking?
You can book with confidence. RVezy applies a clear cancellation policy on every reservation, including a full money-back grace period right after booking. Cancellation outcomes depend on how far out you are from your trip start date. The exact terms appear during checkout and in your booking confirmation, so you always know where you stand before you pay. If your host cancels, RVezy issues a refund or travel credit. Pro tip: book early to lock in summer weekends near Assateague and Cunningham Falls, then use the grace period to fine-tune your dates without stress.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I find a pet-friendly RV rental in Burtonsville?
Yes, many hosts offer pet-friendly RV rental Burtonsville options. Just toggle the Pet-Friendly filter on RVezy and you will see rigs that welcome dogs and cats. Many Burtonsville owners include pet bedding, tie-outs, and lint rollers, and some waive pet fees for well-behaved travelers. Your pup will love the trip: Black Hill Regional Park in Boyds and the C&O Canal Towpath both allow leashed dogs, and Cunningham Falls State Park has pet-friendly loops in the Manor Area campground. Pro tip: message the host before booking to confirm pet count and size, then ask about nearby Burtonsville dog-friendly trailheads like Fairland Recreational Park, just minutes from town.
dnr.maryland.gov/publiclands/Pages/Pets-in-Parks.aspxCan the RV be delivered to my campground or driveway in Burtonsville?
Yes, RV delivery Burtonsville is one of the most popular options on RVezy and a great choice if it is your first time renting an RV. Filter by Delivery on the search page to see hosts who will drive the RV to your home, a local campground like Little Bennett Regional Park, or directly to Cherry Hill Park in College Park. They will level it, hook up water and electric, and walk you through every system before handing over the keys. Delivery fees in the Burtonsville area typically run a few dollars per mile round-trip. Pro tip: bundle delivery with setup and pickup so you can simply arrive, unpack, and start your Maryland adventure.
montgomeryparks.org/parks-and-trails/little-bennett-regional-park/How many miles do I get with my Burtonsville RV rental?
You have flexibility: most Burtonsville hosts include 100 to 150 free miles per night, and many travel trailer hosts offer RV rental with unlimited mileage since the guest tows with their own truck. Extra miles typically run $0.30 to $0.45 each, clearly listed on the booking page. From Burtonsville, you can reach Shenandoah National Park in about 90 miles, Assateague Island National Seashore in 140 miles, Gettysburg in 65 miles, and Ocean City in around 150 miles, so a 500-mile package easily covers a long weekend. Pro tip: map your route in advance and message the host for a custom mileage bundle if you are planning a longer RV road trip from Burtonsville up to Acadia or down to the Outer Banks.
nps.gov/shen/planyourvisit/directions.htmWhere are the best campgrounds near Burtonsville for an RV trip?
You are spoiled for choice with great campgrounds within an hour of Burtonsville. Cherry Hill Park in College Park (about 15 miles south) offers full hookups, a pool, and a shuttle to the DC Metro, perfect for sightseeing without driving the city. Little Bennett Regional Park Campground in Clarksburg (about 25 miles) has wooded sites and electric hookups. Greenbelt Park (NPS-operated, about 12 miles) has 172 shaded sites and is a family favorite. Patapsco Valley State Park near Ellicott City and Ramblin' Pines in Woodbine round out the list. Pro tip: Cherry Hill books up months ahead for cherry blossom season, so reserve as soon as your dates are set for the best RV camping Burtonsville experience.
nps.gov/gree/planyourvisit/campground.htmWhen is the best time to plan a Burtonsville RV trip?
Burtonsville shines from mid-April through late October, with the sweet spots being late April to early June and mid-September to mid-October. Spring brings 65 to 78 degrees Fahrenheit with dogwoods and azaleas in bloom, while fall delivers crisp 55 to 75 degree days and incredible foliage along Skyline Drive. July and August are warm and humid (often 85 to 92 degrees with afternoon thunderstorms), but campgrounds run AC and pools are open. Winter rentals are possible too, just confirm with the host that the RV is winterized-ready for trips below freezing. Pro tip: book a Columbus Day weekend trip for peak Catoctin Mountain foliage, a local favorite that even many DC residents miss.
weather.gov/lwx/I've never driven an RV before. Will I be okay starting in Burtonsville?
You will do great. First time renting an RV is exactly the experience RVezy hosts are set up for. At pickup in Burtonsville, your host walks you through every system: propane, water, slide-outs, dump valves, and driving tips for the specific rig. Most first-timers choose a Class C motorhome or travel trailer 22 to 28 feet long, which handles like a large pickup and fits easily on I-495, I-95, and the ICC (MD-200). Avoid the narrow streets of downtown DC and the Annapolis Historic District. Pro tip: start with a one-night shakedown at Little Bennett or Greenbelt Park, just 15 to 25 minutes away, then head off on a longer Maryland RV trip once you are feeling confident.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsWhat if I have a breakdown or issue during my Burtonsville RV trip?
You are covered around the clock. Every RV rental in Burtonsville booked through RVezy comes with 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the protection plan, covering tire changes, jump starts, lockouts, fuel delivery, and towing. If something mechanical comes up, your first call is the roadside line, then message your host through the RVezy app for guidance on the rig's quirks. RVezy customer support is also available before, during, and after your trip. Pro tip: save the roadside number to your phone before pulling out of the host's driveway, and snap photos of the RV at pickup so any issue is documented from the start.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailCan I take my Burtonsville RV rental on a cross-state or cross-border road trip?
Yes, an RV road trip from Burtonsville opens up nearly the entire East Coast. Most hosts welcome travel through Virginia, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Delaware, New Jersey, New York, and the Carolinas with no extra paperwork. Crossing into Canada is allowed by some hosts with advance notice so insurance can be confirmed; just message the host before booking. Travel to Mexico is not permitted on any RVezy rental due to insurance coverage limits. Popular routes from Burtonsville: Shenandoah and Skyline Drive (90 miles west), Outer Banks (300 miles south), Acadia National Park (650 miles north), and Niagara Falls (400 miles northwest). Pro tip: confirm your route in the booking message so your host can recommend the best fuel stops.
virginia.org/things-to-do/outdoors/camping/What kind of fuel mileage and gas budget should I plan for?
Easy to budget: campervans (Class B) average 17 to 22 MPG, Class C motorhomes 8 to 12 MPG, and Class A rigs 6 to 9 MPG. Maryland gas prices typically run $3.20 to $3.70 per gallon, with the cheapest stations often along Route 1 in Beltsville and along US-29 north of Burtonsville. For a typical 300-mile round trip to Shenandoah in a Class C, plan on roughly $90 to $130 in fuel. Diesel pumps for larger motorhome rentals Burtonsville are available at the Pilot in Jessup and Sheetz in Laurel. Pro tip: use GasBuddy and fill up in Maryland before crossing into DC, where prices climb noticeably.
eia.gov/petroleum/gasdiesel/How far in advance should I book a campground for my Burtonsville RV trip?
For the best campgrounds near Burtonsville, book as soon as your dates are locked, especially May through October. National Park Service sites like Greenbelt Park and Catoctin Mountain Park use Recreation.gov and open six months in advance, often selling out weekends within minutes. Maryland State Parks (Cunningham Falls, Patapsco Valley, Assateague) use the Maryland State Parks reservation system, with bookings opening up to 12 months ahead. Private parks like Cherry Hill Park accept reservations year-round but fill fast for cherry blossom and July 4th weekends. Pro tip: set a Recreation.gov alert for site cancellations, last-minute openings pop up constantly at Greenbelt and Assateague, even in peak summer.
recreation.gov/What are the driving conditions like around Burtonsville and DC?
Burtonsville is well-positioned for easy RV driving. You will mostly use US-29, I-95, and the ICC (MD-200), all wide, well-paved highways suited to large vehicles. Rush hour (7-9 AM and 4-7 PM weekdays) is heavy on I-495 and I-95, so plan departures mid-morning or after 7 PM. Avoid Rock Creek Parkway and the George Washington Parkway in DC, which restrict commercial-style vehicles and have low clearances. Watch for low clearances on the Baltimore-Washington Parkway as well. Pro tip: use a route planner that accounts for RV height and weight to avoid posted bridges and tunnels around the DC region.
