We took a single-night opportunity to get away to Catoctin yesterday. The campground was more than half vacant, it being mid-week. Don, the camp host, came to greet us a bit after we arrived. We did two small (1.5 miles each) hikes. Firewood was plentiful and burned well, and the temperature was nearly 15 degrees cooler than off the mountain. Great shady camp spaces with a leave tent pad. We’ll totally be back.

Oh, and the cleanest bathrooms I’ve ever seen in a campsite.
