Camp Meade RV Park

I found this to be a nice campground. Seems to be well run. Everything was neat and very clean. I did lose connection for my Verizon internet once in a while, but was told at a Verizon store that a lot of times, it is a weak signal or there is a lot of interference in the area such as radio, TV transmissions. Verizon cell phone worked OK. Dish Network worked also. All washers and dryers working. The sign for the rusty water was still up. I washed whites and no problem. I was in site 33 and had no problem with the electricity. Not all sites have a concrete patio. All have nice level pads for RV though. My site was like a swamp the day I pulled in because of all the rain. The area that is concrete on some of the sites in mine was grass with a border (at ground level) of railroad ties. Overall, a very good campground. A little expensive for a military one, but very well run and worth it. I did get the 20% discount for Access Pass. Very easy to drive to Baltimore or DC if you don't mind the traffic. Would stay here again.

We enjoyed our stay at Camp Meade. It was an easy drive to visit Baltimore and to take the train to DC. The MWR people were friendly, but not always the most knowledgeable. One of the very few complaints we had was for some reason getting dropped regularly from our aircard internet connection. I am assuming that is due to the NSA being on the base. Being on the base for the Fourth of July was nice. The fireworks, although not the most spectacular we have ever seen, were definitely lengthy -- 35 minutes. We would return for another stay here.

It was a bit tricky finding the back entrance to the base, but once inside the gate it was easy to locate the RV park. We liked the shady, grassy sites. There was a note posted in the laundry room warning about rusty water, which was dated in August, but the problem was continuing into Sept. The detergent dispenser was out of order, and the lounge was closed due to mold problems. The office lady, Bernie, was very nice and helpful. This base is close to the MARC train station so it's easy to get into D.C. without fighting the traffic. Also nearby are several restaurants and a large shopping mall.

J.C. left this review using the Directory software: Clean and well run and convenient to Baltimore and Washington DC. Wish the roads in the campground were wider so as to make access easier. Our 45 foot coach fit into the site, but getting into the site was hard because of the narrow roads in the park. There is no WiFi.

RV Park was very clean and well organized. The staff was great and helpful. We stayed at site 16 which was very good and easy to get into. I opted for the backin site b/c the pull through sites cost you an extra $10 per night, not a bad deal for 1 or 2 days but if you plan to stay there any length of time go for the back in option. The hookups were easy to find and centrally located on the site. Some CG hookups are either located at the back or the front, these were located right in the middle which made hooking up easy to do. We used the location to go to Six Flags but will be coming back to do other site seeing. The CG is located between DC and Baltimore which makes it a great spot to be. The management also offered me a location in the lot to leave the RV so I did not have to drag it to Six Flags which is a huge plus.

D.O. left this review using the Directory software: We are in site 33 and the power is a bit low. Runs from 113 to 121 at the pedestal which is not even barely adequate at the lower end. However when a load is put on the grid such as heat pump and coffee pot (at 117 volts) it can't handle it. Really not acceptable for "50A" power. Staff is great and very customer oriented and helpful. ITT office does not measure up to others we have used. No info at all on how to use the MARC for access to Washington DC. We are having to dig that up ourselves.

Cleanest and nicest military RV campground we've visited. The campground is very neat and unlike most other military campgrounds, the fulltimers can't clutter up the area with fences, furniture and other stuff. Only negative is the Ft Meade area has nothing to offer for entertainment.

This is a first rate military RV park! Maybe not the luxury of some of those $80-$100/night parks in Florida but you won't find a better value for your dollar anywhere in the USA! If it's your first stay at Ft Meade, I recommend an arrival during daylight hours. There are three gates for entry onto the base and they are manned at varying times depending on the day of the week and/or the hour of the day/night. Also, know which gate you are looking for. While that seems obvious, it's not so obvious when you are trying to navigate using three different sets of directions. At all three gates there were large concrete barriers through which to maneuver but with a watchful eye it definitely was doable for my 37 foot fifth wheel. As others have commented, Wilson Blvd, off Llewellyn Blvd is poorly identified and therefore easy to miss particularly in the dark. Our concrete slab was perfectly level, no blocks or levelers required. Very neat and clean surroundings. Centrally located to a wealth of things to see and do. Don't forget to use your Golden Age Passport if you have one.

Well this is a great campground and convenient to Baltimore, MD and Wash DC. very nice and roomy sites. Staff very friendly but not much help on how to get to places. A little pricey but not bad for the area. The NSA gate is a little bit to move through but adequate. I was told later that if you have a mil decal on the RV you can go through the other gates. There has been some construction going on so a couple gates are closed and this construction creates problems getting around the base. There are signs but small and the Wilson street sign has fell off the pole causing more than myself to miss the road. The grounds are very clean and the showers and restrooms are very well maintained. We will return again.

Of course arrived after the NSA Delivery Gate was closed (2200), but easily made our way around Hwy 32 to 175 where the Main Gate is located. Easily traversed the gate with a 36ft fifth wheel. Guards were very helpful with directions and welcomed us heartily. Campground is very nice with concrete pads and patios. Base maps are available at the campground store/check-in center. Didn't have reason to use the bath houses, but from outside appearance, they should be fairly nice. Every thing is clean and neat. Very short (2 nights) stay, but even at $33 per night, cheap in comparison to off base. Will definitely stay again if in the area.
