Loved our time here. Right on the river. I’m sure at certain times of the year there can be a lot of foot traffic due to the C&O trail, over all great location, clean, easy, tons of wild life. Will definitely be back.

Campsite 18 is nice, because it has a good path down to the river if you like to fish (which we do). However, it's about as far from the privies as you can be (unless you're at 19 or 20, then you're further away). When it's as cold as it was when we were there, that trip to the privies can be long... and cold.
Otherwise, we had a great visit. Literally no one else was there (we were actually the only occupied campsite), so it was quiet (except for the raccoons all night) and the privies remained fully stocked with TP. A raccoon did come into our campsite while we were chilling at the fire pit, but the BearVault was too much for them. When they came back in the middle of the night for the trash, they still got nothing.

Beautiful for a fall campout once the leaves are down and you can see the river. Only improvement I would ask for would be to make the well water drinkable.

- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
