From Sunrise to Stargazing: A Day at Timber Valley Retreat
Timber Valley Retreat is a private glamping campground in Clear Spring, Maryland, that's perfect for families, groups, and special events. When you book, you get the entire site to yourself, which includes three cabins and a variety of amenities.
Here are some ideas for a great day there, categorized by different activities:
Morning: Active and Adventurous
Explore the Outdoors: Since the retreat is located at mile marker 108 along the C&O Canal and just a 3-minute walk from the Potomac River, this is the perfect time to go hiking or biking on the towpath. You could also take the paddleboat out on the pond.
Get on the Water: The Potomac River offers opportunities for swimming, fishing, and water sports like tubing and kayaking/canoeing.
Playtime: The playground and a large sandbox will keep children entertained for hours.
Scavenger Hunt: Be sure to get everyone together for the Timber Valley Retreat scavenger hunt. See Tom for copies of the scavenger hunt papers
Afternoon: Relaxed and Rejuvenating
Family Bonding: Enjoy some quiet time on the deck, which has seating for many people. You could play board games, read a book, or simply enjoy the beautiful, serene setting.
Wildlife Watching: The 100-acre farm provides a great opportunity to spot local wildlife, especially if you're quiet.
Refresh: The spring-fed pond is a "big hit on hot summer days" for a cool dip. The outdoor shower is also a unique and praised amenity.
Evening: Cozy and Social
Cookout: The full summer kitchen, with two refrigerators, a stove, an oven, and a microwave, is perfect for preparing a large family meal.
Campfire Fun: Gather around the huge fire pit for roasting hot dogs, making mountain pies, and, of course, s'mores. It's a classic way to end the day with stories and laughs.
Stargazing: Away from city lights, the night sky is perfect for stargazing and looking at constellations.
