NEAR is the key word. I have a 38ft DP with a Toad. Prefer a private campground but could take something else. I already googled and I have a place in Glan Burnie so I'm not interested in Cherry Hill etc. NEAR Thurmont. Thanks

Glen Burnie is pretty far from Thurmont. Cunningham Falls State Park Is right in Thurmont. They have sites that would fit Your DP but it would be tight getting in. However if I can fit my 39' fiver you could fit your 39'DP.
If state parks are not your thing, consider the Gettysburg CG's.
Granite Hill, Drummer Boy, Artillery Ridge, Gettysburg KOA, Round Top, are all closer to Thurmont than Glen Burnie.
If you want to be closer to the Balto. Metro area Ramblin Pines is on the west side of Baltimore in Woodbine, MD not really close to Thurmont but still a good 45 minutes closer than Glen Burnie.

Lantley thanks for getting my spelling right. My daughter lives on Oella and son lives on the Howard Co side of your town. Reason I said GB is because we have a house on Aviation Blvd accross from the general aviation terminal at BWI. She is getting married near Thurmont on the 22nd. I don't need to be close but would be nice. I looked at Ramblin Pines, how close to Thurmont is it?

Ramblin Pines is basically at I-70 and MD-97.
Oella is about 20-25 minutes from Ramblin Pines.
Thurmont is about 45-50 minutes from Ramblin Pines.
Ramblin Pines is pretty close to both your kids.

I used to live about 5 miles from Cunningham falls. I can tell you that Cunningham falls and Greenbrier - which are the 2 closest CG's - won't fit your rig very well. These are older, tight State parks, in the mountains and even if they have a site to fit it, it's white knuckle getting in and out.
Probably the closest CG's are in the Gettysburg area. It's about a 20 min drive from Thurmont and there are a few that are full hookup.
Outside of that, you have Rambling pines but it's a little off the beaten path, Yogi in Williamsport and KOA in Harpers ferry. They're all about 30 - 35 mins from Thurmont.
On Edit; I would book sooner than later. The dates you are talking about is "leafer" heaven. People come from all over to Thurmont for the mountain leaves and Fall fest in Thurmont. So many people that cars get parked lined up on the highway and off ramps. It's nuts.

Looks like colorfest is 10/14 -15 so your timing should just miss it.

CG's in that area also get busy around Halloween. Halloween and the weekends prior are a big draw for family CG's. Beware your only 1 week away from Halloween.
If you book soon you should be OK.
I agree with Way2roll that Ramblin Pines is off the beaten Path.
However its only 10 minutes or so from the interstate and has decent access in and out.
Its not a bad location if you want to be in the Ellicott City Oella area.

Lantly this is the most complicated thing I been involved in lately. We are in NC right now and leaving here for Myrtle Beach then Charleston then don't know where so I don't even know where I'll be coming from. Now something about hoping nothing is happening at Camp David because of their fly over zones when big shots are there. Something about flying a banner over the wedding site. Mama don't care about leaves. Wedding site won't let us park there because some nice camper dumped their black tank in the parking lot last summer. I'll check Ramblin Pines tonight
