The camp itself is excellent. Clean, not too close to each other, and the facilities are well maintained! Some sites were like a swamp but the Park Rangers were very helpful and found me another site!

Great stay. I stayed at A19 and stayed from Thursday to Saturday for a short trip with my 3 yo daughter. The check-in process was incredibly easy. Someone who works there drove around and marked us off as checked in.
The bathrooms were exceptionally clean. They have full flush porcelain toilets. There are also showers available. They looked very clean, although we did not use them for our short trip.
There was a modest amount of wood that could be collected for firewood immediately around our campsite, but you would probably be better off picking up some downed branches on your drive into the park. From the entrance that we arrived at it was about a 15 drive to the campsite. It is a gorgeous drive, and there are plenty of large enough downed branches to use.
One commenter mentioned that they were woken up by gunfire from Quantico. I feel like they must have tremendously great hearing. There is some gun fire in the background here and there, but if you ever lived on a military base, it is no different. Or maybe if you ever live near an outdoor gun range. Sounds more like freedom ringing to me.
Just in keeping in good faith of an honest review, if I had to find a negative, I would say that the fire ring could have been a little bit bigger. If you had a group of more than 6 people, I would imagine you would want a larger fire.
All in all, a great stay. I would absolutely stay here again.
