This is the most suitable campsite in the Greater Washington area. The staff are particularly nice and the lovely volunteers are divided into two special camping areas. One is a decorated standard venue and the other is a venue that basically retains the original style. The fire is piled up with a piece of stone and it is very wild! Of course, you can also make a lot of friends to drink and drink in this place. There are also many small animals to accompany you to watch the stars in the sky!
It was our first time here and it quickly became one of my favorite campgrounds. There's no service whatsoever, so take that into account. But I loved the forced shutdown of cell phones. The hot showers were fantastic and much welcomed! There is fishing, creeks for swimming, and a couple fields (one with a podium, stage, and seating). Tons of fun!!
We stayed for 9 days @ 5./ day. There are many trails to hike, a beautiful picnic area with a restored cabin, and pretty suspension bridge over the stream. The shower/restrooms were closed for the winter, but, there are a couple of vault toilets. There is also a large open grassy area with horseshoe pits. Great place to take the family camping.
What an amazing experience! No wifi & no cell. Was a great weekend to disconnect. Host and campers were some of the nicest people one could meet! First come, first serve and sites are pretty big. Can't wait to go back!
So great. My favorite camping site. Great showers, cozy camp sites ( get there early to pick out the one you want. ) Amazing scenery and hiking trails. 😀
