Nice enough place, bathrooms are old but kept clean. -1 star because you can hear the occasional plane/helicopter/emergency vehicle but that’s kind of expected. -1 star for the park rangers. They have very silly rules (no hanging lights on trees, no tying pets to anything while on a leash, if your car is an inch off the concrete they will make you move it). They’re very strict about enforcement. Someone drives around every hour or so.

Do not believe the bad reviews! We usually do despersed camping on forestry roads not campgrounds. Not to many choices if visiting DC. Just a bit close together for my taste but not to bad for a campgound.. clean, quite, nice place.

The restrooms and bathrooms in the B loop are worn down and not well maintained, with a lot of long-dead insects—they probably needed renovations 20 years ago. The camp spots are alright; we stayed at B46 once and later at B78. Those on the outskirts of the loop are definitely quieter, but they’re farther from the bathrooms. Not all sites are level, so keep that in mind. Overall, it’s a good deal for the price and the location, which is close to the metro. We were car camping and drove to the Greenbelt Metro station parking lot.

I was awestruck by this campground! I've been camping for 60 years so I've seen all kinds of campgrounds, restrooms, etc. This campground is beautiful! There was a huge mountain laurel right in our campsite, and the campsite was large enough to put 3 big tents on, plus extra room to move around. The restrooms are a little dated, but they were very clean and well-maintained. The showers were nice and hot. We stayed in site C86 and I would stay in that same spot if I ever visit DC again. The campground was very quiet, but we could hear noise in the background such as the occasional airplane or helicopter, and occasional loud vehicle. That just reminded us that we were in the city and not the mountains (we live near the Smokies). It was a short trip to the Metro station with not much traffic involved, and we got all-day passes for just under $14 each plus the parking fee in the Metro lot ($10 per day). The only real traffic we encountered was on our way into DC and on our way out. I can't recommend this overnight option enough for those who like camping. At $20 per night, it's pretty much a no-brainer for accommodations while visiting DC. It cost more to board my dog for the week than it did to accommodate 4 adults!
