Plan a day at Timber Valley Retreat
Timber Valley Retreat is a private glamping campground in Clear Spring, Maryland, that’s perfect for families, groups, and special events. When you book, you get the entire site to yourself, which includes three cabins and a variety of amenities.
Here are some ideas for a great day there, categorized by different activities:
Morning: Active and Adventurous
- Explore the Outdoors: Since the retreat is located at mile marker 108 along the C&O Canal and just a 3-minute walk from the Potomac River, this is the perfect time to go hiking or biking on the towpath. You could also take the paddleboat out on the pond.
- Get on the Water: The Potomac River offers opportunities for swimming, fishing, and water sports like tubing and kayaking/canoeing.
- Playtime: The playground and a large sandbox will keep children entertained for hours.
- Scavenger Hunt: Be sure to get everyone together for the Timber Valley Retreat scavenger hunt. See Tom for copies of the scavenger hunt papers
Afternoon: Relaxed and Rejuvenating
- Family Bonding: Enjoy some quiet time on the deck, which has seating for many people. You could play board games, read a book, or simply enjoy the beautiful, serene setting.
- Wildlife Watching: The 100-acre farm provides a great opportunity to spot local wildlife, especially if you’re quiet.
- Refresh: The spring-fed pond is a “big hit on hot summer days” for a cool dip. The outdoor shower is also a unique and praised amenity.
Evening: Cozy and Social
- Cookout: The full summer kitchen, with two refrigerators, a stove, an oven, and a microwave, is perfect for preparing a large family meal.
- Campfire Fun: Gather around the huge fire pit for roasting hot dogs, making mountain pies, and, of course, s’mores. It’s a classic way to end the day with stories and laughs.
- Stargazing: Away from city lights, the night sky is perfect for stargazing and looking at constellations.
