Experience Nature at Timber Valley Retreat Camping in Clear Spring, Maryland! If you have been searching for The Best Western Maryland Glamping, you have found a 100-acre sanctuary designed for “top-notch” comfort and deep reconnection with the wild. Situated by the C&O Canal at mile marker 108, just below the Four Locks boat ramp, lies a hidden gem where unforgettable moments await.
Located conveniently near Washington DC, Baltimore, Harrisburg, and Winchester, we provide a “phenomenal” sanctuary for families from VA, PA, and WV. Pack your bags and bring along the kids, dogs, and grandparents to enjoy the secluded and private camping area we’ve crafted for your outdoor and nature-filled getaway.
1. Prime Location Near Four Locks Boat Ramp
One of the most spectacular features of our retreat is the location. Situated just below the Four Locks boat ramp, we offer unparalleled access to the water. Whether you want to launch a boat or simply enjoy the riverside scenery, our proximity to this historic landmark makes us an inspiring choice for water lovers.
2. Direct Access to C&O Canal Mile Marker 108
History is right at your doorstep. Being located at mile marker 108 on the C&O Canal National Historical Park means you are steps away from one of Maryland’s most iconic trails. It is a “top-notch” spot for biking, hiking, and exploring the 19th-century engineering that shaped the Potomac corridor.
3. Absolute Privacy on 100 Secluded Acres
Unlike traditional campgrounds, we host only one family or group at a time. When you book The Best Western Maryland Glamping experience, you aren’t just getting a room; you are getting an entire 100-acre estate. The timbered ridges, lush fields, and mossy boulders are exclusively yours, ensuring a private and exclusive stay. Explore the land in our Photo Gallery.
4. A Trio of Handcrafted, Climate-Controlled Cabins
We offer three distinct, inviting cabins that comfortably accommodate up to 5 guests each:
- Amber Lodge: A tranquil retreat for the grandparents or parents.
- Tanner’s Bunkhouse: Featuring whimsical lofts for the “little adventurers.”
- Jake’s Bunkhouse: The newly unveiled sanctuary for the whole squad. Each cabin is equipped with AC and heating, adhering to Maryland’s laws for a high-quality, safe, and comfortable environment. Learn more on our About Us page.
5. Multi-Generational Fun for Everyone
Timber Valley Retreat is designed for the whole family. Bring the kids, the grandparents, and even the dogs! Our pet-friendly policy and spacious children’s play area ensure that no one is left out of the “magic.” Creating lasting memories with three generations in one place is what makes us a “hidden gem” in Washington County.
6. A 3-Minute Stroll to the Potomac River
Adventure is just a short walk away. A mere 3-minute stroll leads you to the Potomac River. As a documented hotspot for local recreation, the river offers “phenomenal” opportunities for tubing, wading, and fishing for smallmouth bass.
7. Historical Discovery at Fort Frederick
Take the family to Fort Frederick State Park, located just minutes from the retreat. The 1756 stone fort is a stunning landmark that offers a “captivating” look into Maryland Tourism and colonial history.
8. Geological Vistas at Sideling Hill
Take a short, scenic drive to witness the astonishing geological cut at Sideling Hill. The massive rock exposure reveals 350 million years of history and provides breathtaking views of the Appalachian ridges.
9. Culinary Freedom in the Summer Kitchen
Our summer kitchen is an official production of Timber Valley Retreat. Fully equipped with two refrigerators and a stove, it allows you to prepare family feasts while staying immersed in nature. It is the perfect place for a sunrise breakfast before a day of exploration.
10. The Timber Valley Farm Barn Rental Connection
If your stay inspires thoughts of a larger celebration, explore our venue: Timber Valley Farm Barn Rental. This newly built, 100-acre event space is an official production of Timber Valley Farm Barn Rental and features massive timber-frame architecture that is truly “extraordinary.”
