Bar Harbor RV Park and Marina Introduce
Located on a scenic eight-acre peninsula along the banks of the Bush River, Bar Harbor RV Park and Marina stands as one of Maryland's most picturesque destinations for outdoor enthusiasts. This family-owned and operated park has been a staple of the Abingdon community for over 50 years, offering a peaceful retreat that perfectly balances the tranquility of nature with the convenience of modern amenities. Whether you are a local Marylander looking for a weekend "staycation" or a traveler navigating the East Coast, this park provides a unique opportunity to experience life on the water. The atmosphere is friendly and professional, catering to those who appreciate a quiet, well-maintained environment where the focus is on relaxation and the natural beauty of the Chesapeake Bay's tributaries.
The layout of the park is thoughtfully designed to maximize the stunning vistas of the river. From the moment you enter, the tall trees and waterfront breeze set a relaxing tone. It is a place where you can watch bald eagles and great blue herons soar above the water while you enjoy a morning coffee from your motorhome or trailer. The park prides itself on its clean facilities and helpful staff, making it a top choice for those who value quality and service in their camping experience.
Accessibility and location are among the park's strongest suits. Situated in Abingdon, Maryland, Bar Harbor is conveniently located just a few miles off Interstate 95, making it an easy stop for travelers passing through Harford County. Despite its proximity to major transit routes, the park remains secluded at the end of a quiet residential neighborhood, ensuring that traffic noise is replaced by the sounds of the river. The facility is also committed to inclusivity, providing wheelchair-accessible entrances, parking lots, and restroom facilities to ensure all guests can enjoy the grounds comfortably.

What makes Bar Harbor RV Park and Marina truly worth choosing is its incredible "hidden gem" feel. While many campgrounds can feel crowded or commercialized, this park maintains a boutique-like atmosphere where the scenery takes center stage. Choosing this location means you aren't just getting a place to park your RV; you are securing a front-row seat to the best of the Maryland waterfront. The staff’s dedication to maintaining a safe, gated, and quiet environment makes it an ideal choice for retirees, families, and solo travelers alike. Between the majestic views of the Bush River and the top-tier utilities, it is a destination that invites you to return season after season.
Furthermore, the value of having a marina integrated with an RV park cannot be overstated. For Marylanders who own boats, the ability to have your vessel just steps away from your camper is a rare luxury. The proximity to local seafood restaurants and Harford County's various parks—like Susquehanna State Park—means there is always something to do. Whether you are here to fish for rockfish, explore the nearby wineries, or simply relax by the pool, Bar Harbor provides a high-quality Maryland experience that is both authentic and exceptionally comfortable.

Customer Reviews
We always love bringing our motorhome to this friendly and beautiful little park.Fine location and good utilities make your stay great. Close proximity to many shops, restaurants and attractions have kept us coming back. But the views are everything here, eagles and herons soar while we fish or crab off the docks right in front of our home away from home.
Great relaxing place with nice RV pads! They have long term and short term RV sites. We stayed in a short term spot near the water. So nice! The staff (Christian and Conner) are super friendly and helpful! You can tell they love what they are doing! The store on site has everything you need and at great prices! We definitely will be back!
A Relaxing and Welcoming Stay – Will Definitely Return!This was my second stay at Bar Harbor RV Park, and once again, I had a very enjoyable experience. The campground is clean, peaceful, and well-maintained. The staff were all very friendly and welcoming, which made the stay even more pleasant.Before arriving, I was advised that the area can experience flooding during rain, and sure enough, there was some flooding near my campsite after a rainy day. While that was the only downside, I really appreciated that the staff gave a heads-up in advance. It shows they care about transparency and helping guests prepare.The location itself is beautiful, but I did give it three stars only because of the flood-prone areas during bad weather. Otherwise, everything else – from the facilities to the atmosphere – deserves high marks.I plan to keep Bar Harbor RV Park in my regular rotation of campgrounds to visit each year. Looking forward to returning again!
This is a beautiful campground on a beautiful river. We had a riverside site which was perfect. Although sites are close together, we never felt the lack of space. Sites are blacktop with a cement pad and are level. Bathrooms/showers modern and clean. Staff very friendly and helpful. We will be back.
This was our 6th time stay at Bar Harbor because we love it some much. It's so nice to stay right on the water and to fish from the back of your camper. The staff is always friendly and the bathrooms are kept clean.
