Joshua Frederick Cockey built one of the first homes in the area in 1798 and later built a hotel in 1810 that drew visitors and settlers alike. His son, Joshua F. Cockey built a train station that became a regular stop on the Pennsylvania Railroad, and several structures that were rented out to other business owners. The town was also the site of a few skirmishes between the North and South armies during the Civil War.

Today, Cockeysville is best known for the Grand Lodge of Maryland, Ancient, Free, and Accepted Masons, the very same organization that has spawned many conspiracy theories over the years. The castle-like building, known as “Bonnie Blink," is a retirement home for Master Masons and Eastern Star ladies. Also on the same grounds is the Maryland Grand Lodge Museum, which has several rare artifacts on display, like a Latin bible dating back to 1482 and one of George Washington’s desks. On the outskirts of Baltimore, booking an RV in Cockeysville, MD, is a great choice.

The Great Outdoors

A Cockeysville travel trailer rental opens up a world of adventure and outdoor fun. The Gunpowder Falls State Park is one of the larger parks in Maryland, clocking in at nearly 20,000 acres. As the name suggests, there are a few waterfalls that’ll delight any nature or landscape photographers. There are over 120 miles of multi-use trails winding through mature woods and groves. Tubing, canoeing, kayaking, and flyfishing are just a few of the popular water recreational activities. The longest trail, the Torrey C. Brown Trail, stretches nearly 20 miles up to the Pennsylvania-Maryland border. Although overnight camping is not generally allowed, there are plenty of parking and dump stations that can accommodate a motorhome rental from Cockeysville.

A little closer to home, the Loch Raven Reservoir is a local favorite. Although swimming is not allowed (because this reservoir provides drinking water to Baltimore), boating, fishing, and hiking are popular activities. The Boat Center has small boats, kayaks, and canoes available for rent, and the boat launch is available to the general public. This area gained some attention in the media in the 1950s when boaters reported seeing an “egg-shaped” UFO flying above a bridge.

RV Parks

When you search for an RV rental in Cockeysville, be sure to figure out where you’ll park overnight while you grab some Zs. This close to Baltimore, there are parking laws and covenants prohibiting street parking. To find accommodations, head out of the town.

Bar Harbor RV Park and Marina in Abington, may be an option. Situated right on the Bush River, which merges with the Chesapeake Bay, many lots have waterfront views. Fishing and crabbing are encouraged.

Alternatively, Hollofield Campground in Ellicott City is on the outskirts of Patapsco State Park and is conveniently close to the city. It includes several amenities like 30 amps, showers and restroom facilities, and pets are allowed so bring Fido.

Walmart is known for being friendly to the RV community, and in a pinch, you can stay overnight in many stores’ parking lots. There are a handful of Walmarts within five miles. One is conveniently in town, and it may work in a pinch. Be sure to ask the store manager for permission beforehand.

Exploring the City

Although Baltimore is tantalizingly close, sometimes dealing with the city traffic isn’t ideal, particularly in an RV rental. On the upside, there’s plenty of activities in the immediate area. Learn how to scale sheer rock slabs under the watchful eye of an experienced climber. Earth Trek, a small indoor rock-climbing chain gym, has a facility in Lutherville-Timonium. The classes cover everything from knot tying to belaying techniques and will get you started on the basics.

Golfing is a popular activity in Maryland, and there are several golf courses open to the public around Cockeysville. Check out all the local fairways in style; a luxury RV rental won’t stick out like a sore thumb. The Pine Ridge Golf Course near Towson has a splendid view of the Loch Raven Reservoir. The uniquely designed fairway will keep the old pros interested without frustrating the beginners. The adjacent driving range, which is open from dawn till 10 PM, also has a putting and chipping green.

Of course, even on the fringes of Baltimore, there are several crab houses, shacks, and restaurants. The Pappas Restaurant and Sports Bar is a local favorite. The unassuming exterior is rather drab and easily overlooked by out of towners seeking posh digs. In fact, Pappas has been in the business for well over 50 years, was listed on Oprah’s Favorite Things, and has won several culinary awards. Their specialty is divine, to-die-for crabcakes.

Embark on a fun adventure in a Cockeysville camper rental and make new memories that’ll last a lifetime.
