Camping Journal

This was a quick weekend get away! The park is 6 miles outside of Frederick, MD just north of I-70. As it is within a two hour drive of both Washington, DC and Baltimore, MD I figured it would be crowded. Boy was I wrong. Even though it appeared that they were "sold out" (almost all the sites had a reserved sign on them), probably 1/3 of the sites were empty the entire weekend. The park was very nice with 35 campsites. Many of these are for tents only or are not suitable for a pop up, so there are about 15 "good" sites, but only a few of these have electric.
