New canvas tent options are available with chairs, a stove, and a lantern.
WHEATON, Md. – Montgomery Parks is offering some new camping options at Little Bennett Campground, a full-service campground at Little Bennett Regional Park so that anyone can go camping – whether you are an experienced pro, or it is your first time. Three new canvas tent sites have just been added at the campground; each site includes a tent, two camp chairs, a propane stove, a lantern, a picnic table, a fire ring with a grill top, and an electrical outlet.
“Little Bennett Campground has camping options for everyone. The new canvas tent sites offer the best of both worlds: the rustic charm of camping with the convenience of modern comforts, so you can spend more time exploring and less time setting up,” said Laura Favin, assistant manager at Little Bennett Campground.
In addition to the new canvas tent sites, Little Bennett Campground has full hook-up sites for people with RVs, as well as yurts, cabins, and a group camping area that accommodates groups with as many as 60 campers. The campground spans 3,700 acres of forest and meadows with more than 25 miles of trails for hiking and biking. Bathhouses with sinks, showers, toilets, and drinking fountains are within walking distance of each campsite. Staff offer a variety of weekend activities from April through November.
There is a two-night minimum for all reservations. Campers may enjoy a maximum of 14 nights on all camping loops. Bathhouses are closed from November through March.
