About Catoctin Quaker Camp

Campground in Maryland.

Nestled in the rolling hills of north-central Maryland, Catoctin Quaker Camp offers RV travelers a peaceful retreat in one of the region's most scenic areas. Located in Thurmont, this private RV park serves as an ideal base for exploring the natural beauty and historical richness of Frederick County. The surrounding landscape features lush forests, mountain vistas, and the proximity to some of Maryland's most cherished outdoor destinations.

The Catoctin Mountain area is renowned for its hiking trails, scenic overlooks, and outdoor recreation opportunities. Visitors can explore Catoctin Mountain Park, a stunning 5,469-acre federal park featuring numerous trails ranging from easy walks to more challenging hikes. The park's elevations and diverse ecosystems create beautiful scenery throughout the seasons, with vibrant fall foliage drawing visitors from across the region each autumn. Crystal-clear streams and natural springs dot the landscape, and wildlife viewing opportunities abound for those patient enough to observe the local fauna.

Beyond the natural attractions, the location puts you within striking distance of significant historical sites. Thurmont sits relatively close to important Civil War battlefields and historic landmarks that shaped American history. The charming downtown areas of both Thurmont and nearby Frederick offer antique shops, local restaurants, and farmer's markets where visitors can experience authentic Maryland hospitality and regional cuisine.

For outdoor enthusiasts, the area offers exceptional fishing in nearby streams and lakes, mountain biking on various trails, and photography opportunities at every turn. Birdwatchers particularly enjoy the region's diverse avian populations. The elevation and forest cover create a naturally cooler climate, making it an excellent escape during hot summer months.

Families and couples alike find this location appealing for weekend getaways or extended stays. The peaceful atmosphere combined with easy access to outdoor adventures makes Catoctin Quaker Camp a gateway to experiencing the best of Maryland's mountain region. Whether you're seeking solitude in nature, family outdoor activities, or a base for exploring local history and small-town charm, this location delivers an authentic Maryland RV camping experience.

Took my 3 grandchildren for 3 days and my wife and I stayed another 3 at Ole mink farm. Very peaceful and relaxing and close to one of our favorite places to go.Gettysburg. the staff is very friendly and the cookies were great. They provided the firewood and this was a first for us. We do plan to go back. I would recommend this resort to anyone who asks. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

We had a lovely time at the Ole Mink. Everyone was so kind and nice. It was quiet and safe. The fact they are family owned shows through in everything they do! We enjoyed the pool, pickleball, corn hole, the playground, the game room and they even had an ice cream truck come through one evening. We would highly recommend! When we asked my daughter where she wanted to go on vacation next she said H... We had a lovely time at the Ole Mink. Everyone was so kind and nice. It was quiet and safe.

My dog and I love spending time at Ole Mink. It's so peaceful and the cabins are really nice and always clean and comfortable. We love being able to take walks on the property and nearby as well. There are lots of great state and national parks just a short distance away. It's often hard to believe we're only an hour (ish) from the city.

Ole Mink Farm was EXACTLY what our family needed to celebrate our son's 14th birthday. We went fishing and hiking at multiple nearby locations, but we could have easily stayed on the grounds the entire time - there was that much to do!

(And it was so quiet and peaceful we felt like we were the only ones there!) We especially loved their pool, the ping pong table and pickelball courts, and the option of the game room - although we didnt use it because we were too busy having fun outside! Thank you Ole Mink Farm for helping us create a lifelong memory for our family. We can't wait to come visit again!!
