Campsite: Chisel Branch Hiker-Biker Overnight Campsite — Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historical Park
A beautiful view of the Potomac River (other campsites can have obstructed views). Level and grassy space for numerous tents. One picnic table. Two grills/fire rings. Water pump: squeaky...treated with iodine...drank plenty of it and had no issues. One well kept port-a-potty. Bonus: Paw Paw grove immediately upstream. Short trail to the river, space for fishing, sitting and enjoying the view. You may hear Dulles air traffic...you may also hear road traffic across the river (Virginia side). Overall, we really enjoyed it and met our expectations.
Campsite: Laurel Fork Campground
We didn’t stay at the campground, but we did park there to access the Laurel Fork Trail. It was a nice backpacking outing for my teenage daughter and her friend. A few parking spots at the trailhead in the back of the campground. Vaulted toilet and trash available at the trailhead. Nice, lightly used trail with several established sites along the way to use. I think it’s a good beginners backpacking spot.
