Greenbelt Campground serves as an excellent base for exploring Washington, DC, offering a safe and peaceful environment. While bathroom facilities could use some updates and maintenance, the campground overall is well-maintained, with friendly staff and a beautiful natural setting. Many visitors appreciated the quiet atmosphere, convenient location near the Metro, and affordable rates, making it a recommendable spot for camping in the city.

The camping is 25 minutes drive to DC and not far from a metro parking (5USD a day I was told). Facility was generally clean, but some (most) sites have very small areas to put the tents. We started at B but C is much more quiet as tents only and therefore no generators. There was some waste around the site. Bottom line, camping is economic and practical and even rather under-crowded but it does not have the experience of other recreation.gov campings as some visitors don't seem to come for purely recreation proposes. The ranger is great!

Location is conveniently close to Washington, DC. My campsite was fine. There seemed to be only one women’s shower in Loop B and it was pretty gross. I only stayed one night; not sure I’d want to stay longer.

We used our stay here to visit Washington DC on a budget. Overall the campground was very good. We stayed in C loop and the bathrooms (at least the toilets and sinks) were cleaned every day. That is one of the most important things to me. The site was okay. It was rough in some spots and there were roots/tree stumps around but it served its purpose. We did not see anyone that works there at all. I do wish that they would give some information about locations to buy firewood in the area. That was very challenging to find. Other campers were quiet and courteous for the most part. There was one tent where the couple fought one evening. We also had something minor taken from our campsite while we were out one day, but of course that could happen anywhere. Overall a great option if you are visiting the city and one that we will do again.
