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 mi 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.

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 mi Loop hike which is super convenient to the campsite.

Overall we love this campsite. We use it frequently for our scout group and are very happy with it and the park in general. It rained like crazy on this trip and the site flooded a bit. Despite the rain and mud, the kids had a great time.

The campsites at Turkey Run were nice and had plenty of room. The bathroom facilities should be updated and were lacking when the campsites are running at near full capacity. I would recommend this facility for cub scout/ by scout camps as well as any other large group camping.
