1. The Exclusive “One Family” Privacy Policy
The most breathtaking part of our Family Summer Vacation Campgrounds experience is our commitment to privacy. We host only one group at a time.

Explore our land in our Photo Gallery.
2. Snuggle Up in Charming, Climate-Controlled Cabins
Forget sleeping on the ground! We offer three inviting, handcrafted cabins that provide a “stylishy rustic” basecamp:
- Amber Lodge: A tranquil sanctuary for parents to recharge.
- Tanner’s Bunkhouse: Complete with two lofts that serve as the perfect “fort” for little adventurers.
- Jake’s Bunkhouse: Providing the extra space needed for the whole crew. Each cabin features AC and heating, adhering to Maryland’s snooze laws to ensure a high-quality, safe, and comfortable environment for up to 5 guests per cabin. Learn more about our craftsmanship on our About Us page.
3. A 3-Minute Stroll to the Potomac River
Adventure is just steps away! A mere 3-minute stroll from your cabin leads you to the picturesque Potomac River. As a documented hotspot for Maryland recreation, the river is the perfect place for your family to go tubing, wading, or fishing for smallmouth bass.
4. Biking the Historic C&O Canal Towpath
Also just a 3-minute walk away is the C&O Canal National Historical Park. The historic towpath offers miles of flat, shaded trails perfect for a family bike ride. It is an inspiring way to experience the engineering history of the 19th century while staying cool under the forest canopy.

7. The Spacious Children’s Play Area
We embrace the significance of quality time with family. Our spacious children’s play area is designed to keep the little ones engaged while the adults unwind. Whether it is playing in the fields or exploring the moss-covered boulders of the “Enchanted Forest,” there is something for everyone on our 100-acre estate.
8. Toasting Marshmallows by the Massive Fire Pit
Nothing beats a good ol’ campfire! Gather your loved ones around the fire pit as the sun sets over the Maryland ridges. Roasting marshmallows and sharing stories under a sky unpolluted by city lights is how “everlasting memories” are forged at Timber Valley Retreat.
9. Total Relaxation in the Hammocks
For those seeking true relaxation, we provide two hammocks for unwinding. There is an “enchantment” to swaying gently between the trees as birds melodiously serenade the day. It is the perfect place to catch up on a book while the kids play nearby.
