About Turkey Run Ridge Group

Turkey Run Ridge Group Campground has nine wooded group campsites which can accommodate a maximum of 25 to 40 people per site. Located in Prince William Forest Park, 35 miles southwest of Washington, D.C., the park's land was set aside during the Great Depression. In 1935 the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) began restoring the previously over-farmed acreage, converting it to recreational lands for public use. The CCC built trails, dams, and cabins, making the park a wonderful place for recreation and relaxation. Parking is limited at Turkey Run Ridge Campground. It is recommended that visitors carpool when camping at Turkey Run Ridge Campground.

Turkey Run Ridge is an excellent youth campsite. My Scout Troop like many in the Northern VA area love it, and we have camped there for years, but we are now really scaling back due to the extremely high prices. When I started going there we could rent a 25 person site for $40 per night and a 40 person site for $60. Drivers who stayed would also have to pay a $5 park entry fee. The rate is now $65 for the 25 person site and $80 for the 40 person sites. Gone also is the $5 entry fee per vehicle. Now you must pay $20 per vehicles for a seven day pass. (I am sure there are many who don't because they cut down on enforcement and only ask for proof if you are not parked in a legal spot.) As honest Scouts we pay the fee. So, for my Troop to camp there with 60 people for two nights and 8 vehicles it cost $450 ($65+$80 x 2 = $290 for the campsites and 8*$20=$160 for the vehicles). There are lots of cheaper, equally nice alternatives.

PWFP is a Jewel. and a great place for group camping. Love the hikes and feeling of being way out in the woods, but being so close to northern VA.

Sites are really with clean bathrooms.
Only negative is the fire pit size. It is too small for a group site

One of my favorite campsites in NoVA. Easy access to a large number of orienteering courses, and we did the 4.8 Mile Loop hike which is super convenient to the campsite.
