The small unincorporated town of West River in southern Maryland is just minutes from the Chesapeake Bay, and a short drive to the nation’s capital, Washington D.C. This tiny village is quite close to Annapolis, Maryland’s state capital, yet it remains far enough out in the countryside to feel quite empty and devoid of community.

West River is little more than a few homes and sparsely populated neighborhoods, in a mostly agricultural setting. When you book an RV in West River, you'll find yourself in an excellent location for exploring the beauty of southern Maryland, as well as the various parks and wetland habitats that line the Chesapeake Bay.
