Nice surprise, great retreat with easy access from highway

We stayed at campsite 1 which had nice views of the river and a pretty good distance from neighbors. Closest site to the drop toilet and day use area portapots (very clean!). Other spots looked much closer together. Overall a really nice stay and convenient off highway and 15 min drive to Hagerstown. MD. Spotty cell service, but worked most of the time. Folks gave warning not to use the water pump because of contamination, we packed plenty of water. There's a steep drop to the river at the campsite, so no direct access, but boat ramp is near by- insanely quiet paddle with gorgeous views of the potomac once you get past the pontoons that dock to day party on the weekends, nice fishing too! We went labor day weekend and the campground was quiet after 10pm.
