We opted for a water, electric site back in the woods. Site was large and heavily wooded. Access roads need improvement. The full service sites were in an open field and were very close together. I gave this campground a high rating because I like to be back in the woods and have a natural site (this may not appeal to everyone). I can see that some large motor homes would have trouble with the roads in the wooded area. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
The full-hooks are well leveled, mostly sun and close together without fire pits. The water and electric sites are well shaded and are of a very good size but motorhomes could have some minor leveling issues. The price is reasonable. It is not a well known campground and under used. This is a worthwhile place as a base from which to go on sightseeing trips into DC, Bull Run, and Harpers Ferry. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This campground is pretty much as described in postings, except it would seem they have added quite a few pull-through sites that can accommodate bigger rigs with full hook ups. We stayed for a couple of weeks while visiting friends and the DC area and it worked quite well. We could not find any RV parks or campgrounds any closer to the DC metro area. We had a nice, grassy, tree shaded site that was quite pleasant. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Easy access, long private paved road to campground. However, if two Motorhomes met coming and going and both were towing toads, one of them would have to unhook to back up and pull off the road so the other could get by. They have 5 new pull-through sites with 50 amp service which could accomodate Big Rigs. However, a couple of the sites would be difficult to level a rig. Clean well kept park, Next visit to the D.C. area, will look for a closer park to for sightseeing. The value for the $ just is not there. The original posting on this park describes it. This park served its purpose while we visited with family who lived on the west side of D.C. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This campground is near our home and makes for a quick outing. I really like this place BUT they really need to put some $$$ back into the campground - kinda strikes me that the owner is in a "run-to-failure" mode. Bathrooms/showers are always clean, nice pool but not much more to write about. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Nice campground . Well kept and clean . Nice little camping store Lots of trees , and a small lake . We will camp here again. We camped here in a Tent.
A rustic campground with mainly wooded sites best suited for tents, pop-ups, and small travel trailers. There are 16 grass pull-throughs with W/E/S hookups, fairly level and OK spacing (I think these are the only sites that can accommodate a 5th wheel or motorhome). The campground is part of a working cattle farm, acres of woods, couple of ponds, meandering stream - very peaceful. Convenient to Dulles Airport (Air and Space Museum); Manassas Civil War Battlefield is 8 miles south on 234, Wal-Mart and Camping World are a couple miles beyond that. If you appreciate 'old fashioned' camping then this is the park for you. (Camped here during off-season; rate is for full-hookup site.) We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Although the entrance to the campground is long and can be dusty, it is nice. The park has a big lake with a beach. Some of the sites are old and poorly laid out while others are nice. Many of the full hookup sites are on top of one another while some of the nicer sites are old and did not have 30 amp hookups. Also, the fee for electric and water was $20. Then we were charged an additional $3 for just using our air conditioning. Owners were friendly and helpful. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Older rural place, off the beaten path. Not a huge lake, but there are fishing and boating opportunities (elect. motors only). Clean sand beach with swimming area. Some spaces are small and poorly laid out, but others are great. Few full hook-up spaces. Restrooms are clean, but very old. Close enough to D.C. to make day visits. Many special event weekends full of fun things to do. Owners are friendly and helpful. Small reasonably priced store. Overall I like it and generally visit 2-3 times a year. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
