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.

Very convenient for getting into DC. We also took a day trip out to Shenandoah which was not too far of a drive. Great location. Convenient to a market and a drugstore if needed. We would definitely stay here again!

As a person with a disability, it can be difficult to find a good place to stay. Greenbelt Campground was a great spot for me to stay while I visited Washington D.C. It's basically right in the city, but feels like you are in the wilderness. The facilities were accessible, with hot water and a roll in shower. I had to bring my own shower chair, but was at least able to take one. I definitely recommend this campground if you want a nice place to camp out while you visit D.C.

We stayed for 8 nights. In that time, the hot water could not be repaired for the shower. I can't guess if it is fixed yet. The dumpster was full when we got there and stayed that way. The bathrooms had spiders and never seemed to be cleaned at all. I like this campground.
The two campfire programs I attended were very good (drum circle!).

Staff was great. The park itself, restrooms fencing etc. does need upgrading. Electric on the sites would be a big plus. Also many sites have short area of paving barely long enough for a pickup truck mich less having a trailer.

The comfort station was quite rundown, there was also no hanging hooks anywhere in the toilet area, so when going to brush teeth or washing face, there is no where to hang any towels or toiletries. Also, the mirrors above the sinks were basically hanging off the hinges (it really should be re-secured to the wall). There is also no place to throw the sanitary napkins in the toilets.

We arrived at dusk and Ranger Turk appeared like a guardian angel and helped us sort our online reservation just in time for us to set up. So kind and professional. This park is the only affordable way to take kids to DC. Third time we’ve been here over 30 years. Camp in a clean, large, wooded, beautiful campground, hop on the Metro, see the sights and come back to hotdogs and a fire on a proper fire ring with a grill. Shower has hot water, good pressure. Lots of hiking trails, deer, lots of bird activity. Campground is deep within the park and surrounded by healthy, dense Eastern woodlands forest.
Level asphalt pad for the camper. Only affordable way to see DC and the area. Attentive rangers and campground host. Got a little busier on the weekend but did not get crowded or loud. Full of families. Except for outside road noise, you would never know you are in the middle of an urban area.
