Buttonwood
Beach is located on Maryland’s beautiful Eastern Shore
on a gorgeous piece of land adjacent to the banks of the
Elk River and C&D Canal at the head of the Chesapeake
Bay. Construction began in 1973 on this innovative
concept in campground living, and now thirty-eight years
later, Buttonwood Beach has hosted four generations of
pampered campers. Quickly becoming one of the premiere
campgrounds of its kind in the nation, we have never
lost sight of our initial goal - to provide the best
possible service and environment for our campers. From
the moment you drive down our tree-lined lane and pass
through our electronic security gate, you’ll know that
Buttonwood Beach is different from other campgrounds you
have visited. After registering at the office, you will
be welcome to take a self-guided tour of the resort and
encouraged to talk to the residents who have been here
for years. Find out what they have to say about our
resort. From the moment you look out over our beach to
the sparkling water, you’ll know that you’ve found a
special forever kind of summer place. A place of peace
and quiet where the waves washing gently on the shore
speak your kind of language. A place where you can leave
the stress of your everyday world behind - where the sun
and the stars are a little brighter, the sea air a
little fresher, a relaxing place that you’ll be proud to
call your summer home. If
you’ve never camped before - this is the perfect place
to start. The modern conveniences are all right here.
Full hook-ups including water, sewer and electric are
standard features. Park model RV's come equipped with
central air conditioning, microwave ovens, built-in
stereo systems, queen sized beds, cable television and
even telephone (if you insist on having contact with the
rest of the world). Located in the resort are laundry
facilities, a convenience store, gasoline and propane
sales, a swimming pool, an open air pavilion, a fenced
dry-land boat storage area, launching ramps with piers
and much more. The wonders of the beautiful State of
Maryland are also waiting for you to explore when you
can find the energy to pull yourself away from your deck
overlooking the river. Want
to combine recreation with relaxation? No problem. Water
sports are a natural at Buttonwood Beach. Whether you
want to sit on the sand and read a book, soak up a few
rays or are looking for a little more adventure, this is
the place for you. Our pampered campers enjoy fishing,
crabbing, canoeing, skiing, swimming, all types of
boating and more. Like looking at the water - but don’t
want to get wet? No problem, go for a long walk, chat
with you neighbors, take the youngsters (and the young
at heart) to the playground or to feed the year-round
resident ducks and geese that live in Arnold Pond, ride your bike, tool around in
your golf cart or catch the last golden rays of the sun
as it sinks below the horizon at Turkey Point. A lover
of wildlife? If you get up very early you may find one
of our flocks of wild turkeys wandering about. Or stay
up late and see white tailed deer munching on your
favorite flowerbeds! Bird watchers will have fun
spotting our professional fishermen - the Great Blue
Herons and Bald Eagles as they soar over the park.
Or
perhaps you’d enjoy the most popular pastime we offer.
It’s somewhat complicated and takes years and years to
perfect - but our trained staff will be happy to assist.
First you find a very comfortable position, sit back,
take a deep breath, relax your muscles … and do
absolutely, positively nothing! Thank you for spending
this time with us. We welcome your visit - whether by
phone, mail, e-mail or walk-in. We invite you to enjoy
the magic of Buttonwood Beach as one of our pampered
campers. But we’ll warn you in advance:
Come
through our gate once, and you will never want to leave!
