Retirement Trip

Cherry Hill is the place to go. They have a shuttle to the Metro subway station. The only way to travel in D.C. The folks that live/work there drive with one hand on the wheel and one hand on the horn. There's actually a "city" beneath the city that's serviced by the Metro. A huge underground Shopping Mall. Last time I was there, several of the stores were closed for the observance of Jefferson Davis Day (June 6th this year) D.C. was carved out of Virginia and Maryland.

We had a good experience at Cherry Hill, a full service campground which is on a bus line for access to the city or Metro subway station. Daily briefings and loads of free briefings and information on transportation and sites you'll want to see. It's about the closest to the city, just at the Beltway.

X1, the location and accessibility of connecting transportation, i.e. city bus comes right into the RV park takes you right to the tram station which then drops you off right at the center of the capital and all the museums. Be sure and take the double deck bus tours to see and learn about the whole city.

X2 on Cherry Hill, as mentioned above they have a daily 4pm travel class at the campground community room which was very informative.

I can't recommend a CG. But, while you're in the east, consider Gettysburg, Philadelphia and other historical areas. There is a lot to see outside the DC area.
Did you ever hear of the Cape May-Lewes Ferry?
DC has a lot to see but, there's a lot more to see if you're interested.
Do some research and make the best of your trip. :)

Congrats on your pending retirement.

Any Military connection? Fort Meade has a very nice RV park. Near all.
