Harpers Ferry KOA in West Virgina (WV). We stayed at this campground from June 30-July 9, 2009. We are from the Toronto, Ontario, Canada area and picked this campground because of the amenities and facilities listed on the web site. We definitely picked the right park. Although the sites are a little small and many of the pull through sites are on the side of a hill (bring leveling blocks) the patios on the cable sites and campground facilities more than make up for it. The manager (Dale) is extremely friendly and accommodating when possible. The staff is friendly and very helpful. Mel was a great help and very informative about camping life. Garbage pickup and wood delivery were prompt and done with a pleasant greeting. During our one week stay many improvements were made on the campground including a new interlocking patio and new cement pathway leading to the miniature golf. The pond was dredged and cleaned. All of this construction was done while we were at the campground and we did not hear any of it. It was done quietly and unobtrusively. Quiet times were adhered to even during the July 4th holiday weekend. There is a movie theatre, a full sized indoor gym and a very large games room including multiple pool tables, multiple air hockey tables and many video games. The pool is very large and there is also a wading pool for smaller children. The campground store is large and well stocked with groceries, toys and camper needs. We also chose this campground as a home base for visits into Washington, DC. We drove approximately 40mins to the subway and rode the subway for another 40mins or so from the Shady Grove station. This is a very popular line for commuters so be prepared to stand for part of the trip if you take the subway during rush hour. The Red Line from Shady Grove takes you directly into the downtown core and close to nearly all tourist attractions including the US State Capitol, the White House, the Washington Monument and the Smithsonian museums. What you cannot reach via the red line can be easily reached with a simple transfer to the Blue Line. The blue line will take you closer to the Smithsonian, the Holocaust Museum, Arlington Cemetery and the Lincoln Memorial. Be prepared to walk some distances as there are many attractions. Word of advice...book your passes to attractions (e.g. Holocaust Museum, State Capitol) ahead of time whenever possible as the lines can be long and the passes may run out. I highly recommend this campground. The scenery is gorgeous in the area and there is an abundance of activities within easy driving distances. The Luray Caverns were a highlight of our trip. The admittance was expensive at $21.00 but well worth the price. Bring a camera!!!! The campground is at the site where the Shenandoah River joins the Potomac River and you can float or raft down the river with many companies within minutes of the campground.

Some nice amenities and an small amusement park next door for smaller kids which can be reached from the park on a KOA train. Be prepared for extremely small sites. Two awnings on opposite sites will touch each other and what you think is one site may be two sites end to end. It is expensive to stay here. The staff was friendly and helpful.
