Beautiful flat Campground on the banks of the Potomac River. Both Riverside and C and O canal side campsites. Online reservation system what is slow due to poor cellular service In the campground. No light pollution; we could see all the stars clearly In the campground. Mid-March, only two other campers on a Sunday night. Traversing the 10’3” tunnel in a 9’6” RV was a little harrowing with icicles hanging from the ceiling that had to be broken off in order to pass through. Well worth the $10 a night! We will come back again

This was the perfect spot for a quick camping trip. The views of the river are so peaceful. Bring your bike for a ride on the trail. I’ll definitely be making a return trip.

Spent an early season weekend here and truly enjoyed it. We should have brought more fresh water as well was not working yet.
Campground was clean and easy to access. We would recommend this spot!

The cleanest portapotties I have encountered! I was a little put off at not having a real bathroom, but at least the portable toilets were well taken care of. The campground is a hidden gem, right off the water. My family enjoyed some light kayaking there. I gave one less star only because my fire pit was piled high with trash-beer cans, diapers, cold packs, cigarettes, etc. It was gross to clean out and I was surprised that the campground hadn't noticed it before our arrival. Despite the camp trash, I would definitely return.
