To my extreme disappointment this was not what I expected. I've been using this Campground since I was a young child and ive never had to deal w the toilet conditions we faced on our trip. The door markings showed the last cleaning was 8/15. There was no toilet paper in many of the stalls. I had go into town to purchase it. There were also stalls removed from the park which adds to the heavy usage, and helped to creat this mess along with the closure of the dock downtiver adding to park traffic. I will try again next season most likely due to my wonderful childhood memories I just hope there is more care of the park in the future, paying guests deserve good quality restrooms

McCoy's Ferry was a wonderful treat after a long day of driving! The campsite was easy to reserve, even though it was last minute. The campground was quiet, clean and very picturesque on the river. The C & O Towpath trail was right there and a great place to walk. I'm adding this to my favorites! The restroom was also very clean and surprisingly well-kept despite it being right at the boatramp.

It’s a great little site with great views on the river side. The portajohns are always clean and well maintained. Access to the boat ramp is easy. The well water is good so long as you filter it - otherwise you will taste the iodine. Be aware of the trains - not a problem for us since we live nearby a railroad right of way, but if you’re not expecting them you might be surprised. Be sure to look out for the sign advertising firewood delivery on your way in, shortly before you get to the campground. Reasonable priced and delivered quickly by a very nice local couple.

Our campsite was full of trash when we arrived. We did our best to pick up what we could. The portapotties were impeccably clean. Campsites were small and very open but nice and campground etiquette was decent. Location on the towpath was incredible with very easy access.
