I like the location because it's near places of interest like the Museum of the US Marine Corps and it's a nice place to camp. Facilities are good, sites are reasonably sized.

Oak Ridge Campground in Prince William Forest Park offers a peaceful and scenic environment with well-maintained facilities, clean bathrooms, and numerous hiking and biking trails. Campers appreciate the friendly staff, safety measures, and the tranquility of the area, making it a popular choice for repeat visits. While some sites may be close together and noise from neighboring campers can occasionally disrupt the experience, overall feedback highlights a positive camping experience with a commitment to cleanliness and maintenance.

On our third visit, we were met with a tree trunk across the middle of the campsite and large branches left lay after cutting said tree up. We were able to move the majority of it off to the side and set up. Facilities are well kept. Left a day early when the hoards arrived, even though the night was dipping into the low 30’s, large groups were setting up in multiple adjacent sites, and the couple across from us had two dogs that were barking INCESSANTLY, straining their collars and snarling at anyone who walked by. Unless you’re with a large group and don’t care about listening to toddlers cry well into the night, go as far out on C loop as you can. I would never camp here prime time, it is far too cramped.

Loved it; will come back over and over!!! I'm proud to say I've hiked 80% of the entire park. Bring lots of water, enough lunch, and a bag of carrot sticks.

Very nice campsites with nice bathroom facilities. Make sure to reserve campsite before going back since internet service is spotty.
