Really happy to have a campground so close to the nation’s capitol. Roads to the campground look brand new, but the pavement at the campground itself could use some improvement.

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.

Pros: Close to DC
Cons: Campsite layouts are not well designed (many sites are not level, no place to put a tent (I had to camp on the pavement), some RV sites are on the road, etc), ticks (lot of undergrowth on some sites), cleanliness of bathrooms/showers was ok but not great, not much to see/do at campground. Also, I've never been to a campground with so many aggressive drivers (drove like they were in regular DC).
It is a totally fine campground, but not one that I would go to again unless it was the most convenient option.

We just stayed 2 weeks and it was just reopened after being closed since Covid. We were very disappointed with the uncleaned, rundown bathrooms. Filled with cobwebs and black moldy stall doors. Ants in the sink and on the walls the entire stay it was never cleaned and trash was never emptied. There wasn’t a nice outside sink for doing dishes like most campgrounds have. There was a door in the back of the restroom it had a sink in there but it was so disgusting that doing dishes there was not happening. As far as your site goes everything has to be on the paved driveway so measure your vehicle and your camper the paved driveways are not very long. The hosts come as soon as you get to your site so be prepared for the interruption while your trying to set up. It’s very tight here for large campers. Water spickets are very sparse so check for their location before setting up if you need to fill your tank. If your just staying to visit DC it is a very convenient place but very small and a basic campground. It says it’s about 10 mi to DC which sounds great and that it great but driving to DC is about 45 minutes during non rush hours. As far as walking to the metro…Not happening but that is about a 10-15 minute drive to college park metro. Parking is 4.95 Monday - Friday and free on Saturday and Sunday we thought that was a great deal. This campground does not have electricity so keep in mind most people are running generators and some are loud. If your coming for a quiet camping trip think again if your coming to site see bring a radio!
