When I arrived around 4 p.m., someone was still camping at my reserved site. I politely let the person know that I had that spot reserved for the week. When the person in my spot was not cooperative, I reached out to the Communications Center. A Park Ranger was dispatched promptly. I appreciated that support. It was a private camp spot with a pretty view. This site is mostly sand/dirt though. When it rained, the site was messy. It is a hike to the bathrooms and the water pump. Beware of the poison ivy- off the path leading up to the sites from the parking, in the vegetation at the site, and along the little path leading down to the river from the site. Overall, it was nice get away despite these things.

Camp sites are very close to each other and not very private.
Toilets were clean and camp grounds are in hood condition

Site was ok. No problems. Not sure why it cost $20 when the free campsites I used the next 8 nights on the C&O were pretty much the same

Policies & Rules
Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- 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.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
- Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
