Discover Catoctin Mountain Park RV rentals for memorable road trips
After decades of plundering Catoctin Mountain for its ore, mining companies sold the land to the state of Maryland in the early 1930s, which promptly turned into a park. Under President Roosevelt’s New Deal program, the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) descended upon the park and built cabins and lean-tos, blazed trails, paved roads, and constructed bridges. They also replanted tens of thousands of trees. Catoctin Mountain Park is listed on the National Register of Historic Places due to its significant mining history, which played a large role in growing the nearby towns, and the buildings constructed by CCC, which are still in good condition today.

Getting Outdoors
Once stripped bare of trees, Catoctin Mountain Park has been nearly restored to its former glory. A little over 6,000 acres are blanketed by a mix of oak, hickory, maple, and tulip poplar trees. The second-growth forest is relatively young and is expected to hit its ‘peak’ growth condition in 2070 or so. A little over 25 miles of soft, brown trails wind and weave through the growing forest, past fresh, bright meadows, and over babbling streams. Catoctin National Recreation Trails adds 27 miles to that tally, following the ridgetop of Blue Ridge Mountains.
Camping at Catoctin Mountain Park
Catoctin Mountain RV campground is a smaller one with around 30 sites. Because of the tight turns, trailers longer than 22 feet and RVs bigger than 30 feet are discouraged. There are no hookups. However, the campground does have restrooms with flush toilets and showers. There are faucets with drinking water, too. All RV sites have picnic tables and fire rings. Reservations are highly recommended.
Exploring the Area
Though it’s tempting - and certainly easy - to hop into a rental motorhome and head down to Washington, D.C. to explore the nation’s capital, don’t overlook the charms and unique flavor of the small towns that dot northern Maryland. Thurmont, MD, has several attractions, including a mainstay apple orchard, Thurmont Kountry Kitchen, which dishes up old-fashioned country meals, and Catoctin Wildlife Preserve & Zoo. The small-but-mighty zoo houses over 600 animals, many of which are endangered. What sets this zoo apart from others is visitors can interact with a wide variety of animals, including chinchillas, lemurs, and alligators.

We had a wonderful time with "The Birdcage"! The Vogel's had everything included to make our trip easy and enjoyable. Very easy pick-up and drop-off, will certainly look to book again in the future for another get away in "The Birdcage". Thank you so much Sarah and Kevin! A++++

This was an amazing experience and provided an opportunity for a family to try out an RV on a longer trip. We all loved it and would definitely rent from us again if we don’t decide to buy our own. Russ was easy to work with and very accommodating. The RV ran great.

Nuru was absolutely amazing! His customer service was impeccable from start to finish. He was on time with the camper delivery, answered all of my newbie questions with patience and professionalism, and made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. The camper was spotless, beautifully maintained, and fully stocked with toiletries and thoughtful essentials. The air conditioning worked perfectly, which made our stay even more comfortable. Because of this wonderful experience, we were able to create beautiful memories with my grandchild that will live with her forever. I would definitely rent from Nuru again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable camper and outstanding service.
