Very nice location and very clean vaults. My complaint is about previous campers. My site #5 had trash in the fire ring and scattered about. The site next to me #4 was loaded with trash my entire stay. I had to tell people they couldn't camp below my site and they left. I witnessed a group of 12 to 14 occupy a single campsite one evening. I thought they should have been at the group site. Never saw a Park Ranger in 3 nights during my stay. No one likes to be pestered by Rangers, but a visible presence is assuring. Overall, I would camp here again. Just sad to see that other
campers are so disrespectful.

Nice location right on C and O Canal and near Bill's Tavern (walking distance)
Water pump on site, taste is OK
Mostly grass sites

Reserved campsites 4, 6 and 10 (group campsite across the aqueduct) to support 20 campers, 16 C&O Canal bikers and 4 support drivers. Very nice experience. Minor negatives: campsite pump water had a lot of iodine in it to keep us safe and some late-night activity on the boat ramp. Will definitely camp here again.
