The picturesque community of Damascus, Maryland can be found north of Washington D.C. and to the west of Baltimore. The city has a fairly typical American history, as it was founded when a veteran of the War of 1812 bought 40 acres of land in the area now known as Damascus.

Originally named The Pleasant Plains of Damascus after Damascus, Syria, this town soon grew with the implementation of a postal route. Despite its growing population, Damascus continues to be a rural farming community. This small-town vibe mixed with its proximity to major cities makes booking an RV rental in Damascus a no-brainer.
