What a great campground. The campground is 5 1/2 miles from the entrance and butts up against Quantico, so there is very little noise from traffic. There are plenty of well marked hiking and biking trails. The bathrooms and the showers are very clean. The sites are far enough apart that you don’t feel like you are on top of anyone and the each site has a picnic table and a fire ring. Great campground and I will be back.

The camp sites are all bunched together. Some are set back into the woods and are nice. But it’s almost like group camping for everyone. The $35 campsite fee is standard, however the $20 PER VEHICLE fee to access the state forest is absolutely preposterous and a total rip off. They don’t have a daily rate, only a weekly one. Why? To rip you off. The campsites fire ring had more than a foot of muddy ash in it that I had to dig out before we could use it and the grilling grate had a bunch of rust. You can’t charge such a stupid fee and then not maintain the sites better. The state forest is not very impressive. Once you’re 100 yds inside the forest, you’ve seen everything there is to see. No unique features or changes in the landscape. Just a big block of flat woods. It’s probably an awesome place for runners and cyclists. The roads are well maintained and give you several nice loops to use for exercise. There’s a nice playground for kids and a staffed visitor center. The visitor center is not necessary and probably a waste of money—without it they could cut that access fee down.

Campsite fire pit had trash in it. Otherwise campsite was great. But there was a screaming child a couple tents over that was screaming things like, stop, and I don’t want to do that, for about 20 mins, then again an hour and a half later both in the middle of the night, so I was not sleeping because of the noise and worried a bit for the kid.

There was no wood available, and the park rangers would not allow us to use the chainsaw even a small electric one to cut downed wood. I dragged a log over to burn in the fire and was told I’m not allowed to do that unless the log fit inside the fire ring.. this was impossible because we were not allowed to cut it up. We were cold the whole weekend we tried going offsite to purchase wood and it was totally sold out everywhere because of the three day weekend. The park ranger made a point of circling back around to make sure that we had taken the log off the fire and made it a point to tell us to make sure our car was on the pavement. And to move our cars. There were workers with leaf blowers making all kinds of racket but nobody checked the status of the bathrooms and we had run out of toilet tissue. I remember at one time, there used to be shacks that had wood that the workers put in there for campers. I don’t know why this is stopped but I feel that you perhaps be allowed to be issued a permit to use a chainsaw to cut up wood that’s already downed and burn it. There was so much downed wood that I saw on the road to the campground it’s a shame to make campers suffer without firewood..
I would even pay a cutting fee.
It’s a beautiful campground for sure but I’m going to think twice about camping there when we’re gonna need wood to stay warm
