Campgrounds near Trappe, Maryland
Trappe sits in Talbot County on Maryland's Eastern Shore, a short drive south of Easton along US Route 50. The town is a practical launching point for RV travelers exploring the Choptank River, Chesapeake Bay tributaries, and the wildlife refuges of the Delmarva Peninsula. Most campgrounds within an hour's drive are either Maryland state parks or family-owned parks on tidal water.
Martinak State Park lies in Caroline County at the border of the Choptank River and Watts Creek, offering 63 campsites plus cabins along wooded loops. Tuckahoe State Park is a stream and valley park divided by Tuckahoe Creek, spanning roughly 4,000 acres with a 60-acre lake for boating and fishing.
Waterfront private options sit farther south. Taylors Island Family Campgrounds is located in Dorchester County with sites for big rigs and water and electric hookups. Sandy Hill Family Camp sits on the Nanticoke River on the Lower Shore, offering 99 sites with 30-amp electric and water hookups, plus picnic tables and fire rings. Camp Todd, on Lake Williston in Denton, is a Girl Scouts property that operates on a group-reservation model rather than typical RV drive-up.
Things to do near Trappe
Water is the main draw. Martinak State Park sits at the junction of the Choptank River and Watts Creek, with shoreline casting, kayak and canoe launches, and fishing for perch, sunfish, bass, and catfish. A boat ramp and pier provide easy access to the waterways.
Tuckahoe State Park offers 25 miles of hiking, biking, and equestrian trails, an inclusive Sensory Trail, flat-water paddling, hunting, picnicking, and two playgrounds for children. Adkins Arboretum occupies 400 acres within the park and displays vegetation native to Maryland.
Farther afield, Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge and the Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad Visitor Center are within easy driving range for wildlife watching and history stops.

The Eastern Shore has four distinct seasons, and RV planning should follow campground calendars. Martinak State Park and Tuckahoe State Park are both listed as open year round on the Maryland state parks reservation portal, though loops and amenities can be reduced outside the warm season. Private parks generally run shorter windows: Sandy Hill Family Camp is open from April 1 through December 15.
Spring and fall are the most comfortable stretches for RV travel, with mild days, active birding, and lower demand at trailheads. Summer brings the region's warmest, most humid weather and the busiest weekends, especially around July 4 and Labor Day, when waterfront sites at parks like Taylors Island Family Campgrounds fill quickly for holidays.
Winter is quiet. State-park loops that remain open see limited traffic, bathhouses may operate on reduced service, and hookups can be restricted. Anglers still work the Choptank and Nanticoke, but freezing nights are common from December through February.
How to book
Maryland state parks use a central reservation system at parkreservations.maryland.gov. Campsites can be reserved up to 365 days in advance, and popular holiday weekends often fill soon after the window opens. Walk-in sites may be available on arrival, but not all campsites have electricity, so reserving ahead helps secure a spot during peak season.
Private parks handle their own bookings. Sandy Hill Family Camp accepts reservations through its own website. For Taylors Island Family Campgrounds, campers should contact the campground directly. Camp Todd is a Girl Scouts of the Chesapeake Bay property and is typically booked for groups rather than nightly RV drive-up stays.
What to expect on-site
State-park sites in this area are wooded, spacious, and equipped for moderate RVs but do not offer full hookups. Each Martinak site has a camping pad, picnic table, and fire ring, with 30 sites offering electric hookups; sewer and water hookups are not at the site. A dump station and potable water fill are on-site.
Tuckahoe has an electric loop with 30-amp hookups but no water or sewer at sites; water is available at the campground entrance, and each loop has a central bathhouse. Cell reception can be limited, so travelers relying on connectivity should plan accordingly.
Private parks tend to blend transient RV sites with long-term seasonals. Taylors Island Family Campgrounds is split between a section for seasonal campers with long-term leases and a smaller area near Chesapeake Bay with a handful of transient sites, some long enough for a big rig.
