Love the accessibility of the sites

You cannot drive up to the individual site, so you have to park and carry all your gear to the sites. No privacy or trees, sites are all lined up in an open area. No sign. No camp host.

Site host was very friendly without being intrusive - a hard balance to strike. Pit toilets well maintained, but be sure to bring your own hand sanitizer. Between other campsites and many people using the trail, don't expect seclusion. But folks were friendly and doing their own thing. It's a beautiful location and we had a great time. If you just want to get away and relax without being too far away from civilization, this is a good spot.

Stayed one night on 8/9.This is such a nice little spot right along the Potomac River. All sites are walk-in only, which means you park on the street, cross the bridge over the C&O and towpath, and then down a little hill to your site. When my dog and I arrived, someone was still there, but after letting them know I had this spot reserved, they promptly packed out. There were no camp hosts on site.There isn't much privacy between you and your neighbors (or the C&O towpath so be prepared to see bikers, walkers, and runners). Each site has a grill, fire pit, and picnic table. I stayed at Site 11 which had its own path down to the Potomac River. It was quite steep for my bum knees and ankles, but I saw kids easily run up and down it. The Potomac is mostly flat with some "swirlies" for experienced paddlers. I also saw some people tubing.There's one bathroom area - 2 pit toilets and 2 portapotties. There is nowhere to leave trash, so be sure to follow Leave No Trace principles and pack everything out with you. The sites are fully or mostly shaded. Be prepared to make friends with bugs, but they shouldn't bother you. Also great news - no mosquitoes! I have Verizon and had better service by my car on the road than at the actual campsite. At the site I could make calls but couldn't check the internet. Other than a few check-in calls to family, I was looking to unplug for the night.I personally overheated so I ended up not staying the night.
