Camp Misty Mount Historic District, Historic camp district in Frederick County, United States

Camp Misty Mount contains multiple rustic buildings spread across 30 acres within Catoctin Mountain Park at an elevation of 353 meters.

Marines used the winterized camp as barracks during World War II to protect a presidential retreat in the surrounding area.
