"Green Ridge is the second largest of Maryland's State Forests consisting of a 46,000-acre oak-hickory forest. It is located in eastern Allegany County, approximately eight miles east of Flintstone off I-68 at Exit 64."
Green Ridge has 100 campsites over 46,000 acres. All of the campsites offer specific activities near by. For example, some of the campsites are located specifically close to scenic overlooks. Others are along the Potomac River. There is also a campsite by a stocked fishing area if you want to take a gamble at catching your dinner.
One of the best parts of camping is how cheap it is, especially if you already own a tent. If not, borrow one from a friend or you can purchase one for under $100 at Walmart. After that, Green Ridge charges $10 per night for up to 6 people and only $1 extra above 6 people.
Green Ridge is a "Leave no Trace" area. As implied by the name, do your best to make it seem like you were never there. Remember, mother nature is sharing with us, she was here before us and will be long after we're gone. Follow these simple rules and you should be alright:
