What are workamping jobs in Maryland? Workamping jobs in Maryland include camp host positions at state parks and national forests, volunteer host roles at BLM and Army Corps of Engineers sites, and paid seasonal positions at private RV parks and campgrounds. There are currently 17 open positions in Maryland.
Maryland packs remarkable variety into a compact workamping season, from the wild ponies of Assateague Island on the Atlantic to the mountain lakes of the western panhandle. Camp host and RV jobs gather around Assateague and Ocean City on the coast, Deep Creek Lake near the Appalachian highlands, and the state parks and Chesapeake Bay shoreline in between. The season runs spring through fall, peaking in summer at the beaches and again for autumn color in the mountains. Most positions trade gatehouse, store, or grounds hours for a campsite, sometimes with hourly pay. With short drives between ocean, bay, and mountains and easy access to the Mid-Atlantic metros, Maryland suits workampers who want diverse scenery without long travel days.
