A review mentioned that "the camp store is well stocked and had decent hours," though selection is limited to essentials and snacks rather than full grocery items.
"It was a great State Park with fishing, trails, and boat docks. We stayed in the hoffman loop in our 20 ft TT. That loop was pet friendly, shaded, and right next to the playground."
"Site was very level, with a nice long driveway. Right on the water, with beautiful views. Surrounded by tall marsh grass and a few pine trees, so it felt very private."

GuidePrivate campground with cabins and tent sites. Tent sites are first come, first service so call ahead to ensure the space is available. The host family was very nice and easy to work with and talk to. Fire pits were at tent sites and past the office was beach access into Chesapeake Bay. There are trash bins and porta potty’s on sight that are all maintained and kept clean. Beautiful sights and plenty to do in the area with DC being roughly an 40-60 minutes away.
GuideWe were here for just one night during September. Our first time camping in the area and since COVID. Check in process was relatively simple, just pull up and pop out of your car to check in, with mask of course. We got a quick run down, some wood and a brochure with maps and area info. We were at site 133, non electric non water. I feel like the spots at the end of each loop might have slightly more privacy, but our site was fine. It included a picnic table and probably the best fire pit with grill that I've had in a while. It rained the night before we came, and the night we were there so the ground was pretty wet. Bathrooms had a sign for taking care with COVID precautions, and to wear your mask. Bathrooms were ok, but floors were a mess from muddy feet. Not much to be done about that. There were showers, and a dishwashing sink, plus laundry available. It's nice to know we've got a close spot to escape to if we don't have time to go far. This is a pet friendly campground. There's a lot to do out at the whole park, and its worth exploring (we just didn't have time). I'm sure its so pretty out near the water.
LegendStopped off at this campground after finding it while passing though just before Labor Day weekend. While it was the last weekend for the pool before its closure and while they were in the process of working on some of the plumbing at the campground, it was a well put together campground which was very impressive.
Located somewhat remotely from the larger community and near several places of interest along the road, this camp was a great stop for a tent camper like myself. They offer a basic tent site for $26 with nice bath houses. For full connections the price does rise slightly offering both both 20/30 amp and 50 amp connections for RVs.
The roads around the camp are gravel and a little bumpy but the sites themselves were pretty level and grassy for tents which was pretty nice. Sites are located far enough off the road that road noise is minimal.
I did also notice they have cabin rentals available and a pretty nice little store with lots of options for those who didn't bring everything with them.
ScoutThis review is specific to the non-electric tent sites.
From a services available view, their staff is visible and around to help. Bathrooms, "Comfort Stations", could use some cleaning more frequently but I've seen a lot worse. Big trash bin near the comfort stations, convenient. Definitely a well stocked camp store, its obvious they cater to beginner and family camping. You are NOT permitted to use deadfall at this park, must bring locally purchased USDA wood yourself or buy from camp store.
There are comfort stations and trash bins close to every non-electric camp site, an easy sub-200 yard walk for me, but that fact is also where my disappointment starts. The non-electric camp sites in some cases, appear to share a single area, fire pits 10 feet apart from each other, one flat area, barely a full length truck can fit in the parking available at each site they are so close to the road. If you whisper, your neighbors will easily hear close. A big part of camping for me is the peace and quiet of nature. THIS IS NOT THAT CAMPSITE. It is extremely compact and close to each other. Snoring of your neighbor is definitely an issue no matter which site you choose, except for maybe 138 as was said in another review.
The gravel road into the campsites, is a RESIDENTIAL road. Yes, there are houses at the end of the road these campsites are ON. Not off of, on. Now mostly that wasn't a big deal, cars moving through during the day, early evening. But that one guy that sat with his high beams on pointed directly into my tent late night for a solid minute or two before loudly accelerating through was a bit irritating.
This was a weeknight trip, there was only one other camper in this small campground with me so all in all, not a terrible trip but definitely not worth the cost and will not be visiting here again.
TravelerJust got back from a weekend trip there. It was a great State Park with fishing, trails, and boat docks. We stayed in the hoffman loop in our 20 ft TT. That loop was pet friendly, shaded, and right next to the playground.
The most sites were off the road and secluded. Ours was a little over grown and not a straight shot to the landing pad. Fire wood was well seasoned for $6/bx and ice $3/bg at the camp store.
ScoutFirst time staying in a travel trailer at a state park. We booked the day of, because we were being indecisive, and there were a few spots available.
We came in after hours, and the guide at the entrance told us where to get our packet (from the kiosk in front of the camp store).
It’s very easy to find everything here, and the camp ground had both pull-throughs and back in spots. Plenty of separation between you and your neighbor for some privacy. No issues with the water/electric/dump station. Almost no cell service to speak of, but that’s the beauty of going to a place like this. Very kid and pet friendly. The community showers and bathrooms are very clean.
Lots of bugs and mosquitos. Plan accordingly.
Both the visitor center and camp store have plenty of souvenirs, but not much besides that. Just know, if you don’t plan well enough to bring something, you’ll be traveling 20-30 min out of your way to reach anything besides a gas station (nearest grocery store/Walmart is 25 min away).
Overall, it was a great first experience in our RV at this state park!
TravelerGreat camp sites each with a picnic table and fire pit. There are a ton of things to do at this park, boat ramps, water park, mini golf, disc golf, kayak rental, and hiking trails. The camp store is open from 8a-8p. My only complaint is that our site was a bit too close to the “main road” of the park. Also, comfort station 3 was out of service so we had to drive to the other stations when we needed to use the facilities. Other than that, very much recommended and we will be back.
TravelerJanes Island State Park is a wonderful place for scenic state park camping. There are spots for tents and rvs. There is a marina and kayak trails. They have both primitive and full service cabins.
There are 3 camping loops. Loop B is the all electric loop with plenty of large sites that can accommodate bigger rigs. This is where my family stayed. We were directly across the street from the water and the views were amazing. Loop B is pet friendly, and all of the owners there were very responsible.
Due to the high water table, there were plenty of mosquitoes but with the breeze they were held largely in check.
My family and I cannot wait to go back.

Water trails exploration: At Janes Island State Park Campground, visitors can paddle well-marked kayaking routes through marshlands.

There's a beach that's an easy 1-mile paddle away with lots of room to spread out." Kayak rentals available April through October.
Fossil hunting: Westmoreland State Park Campground provides access to beaches where visitors search for prehistoric shark teeth. A camper reported, "I love the sharks' teeth display in the shop and when I was there they were working on putting bones together of a whale that was found!" Most productive hunting occurs after storms or at low tide.
Historical exploration: Point Lookout offers exhibits related to its Civil War history. According to reviews, "The park used to be a prison for Confederate soldiers, so lots of cool exhibits and memorials for history buffs." Tours of the historical buildings run Thursday-Sunday from April through October.
Privacy between sites: Belle Isle State Park Campground receives praise for its well-spaced sites. A camper explained, "Only 30 sites, all which have electric/water hookup. Most sites are shady and level, with lots of space between." Sites on loop perimeters typically offer more seclusion than interior locations.
Clean facilities: Westmoreland State Park maintains exceptionally clean bathhouses. One visitor emphasized, "Bathhouses are always SO clean and heated in the winter. So appreciate the recycling bins." Most parks provide daily cleaning schedules posted at comfort stations.
Fishing opportunities: Multiple parks offer dedicated fishing areas. At Endeavor Point, "the views are great" and access to fishing piers is convenient. Fishing licenses required for anyone 16 or older, available online or at local tackle shops.
Bug intensity: Nearly every review mentions insect activity. A visitor to Belle Isle warned, "SUPER MUTANT BUGS GALORE. We had super mutant mosquitoes and horse flies. They were resistant to citronella candles, essential oils, and bug spray with 40% deet." Bug season peaks mid-May through September.
Reservations required: Point Lookout State Park and other state parks fill quickly, especially waterfront sites. One reviewer recommended, "We were last minute campers on Memorial Day Weekend, so we didn't have many sites to choose from." Most parks allow reservations up to 12 months in advance.
Cell service limitations: Reception varies significantly between locations. At Point Lookout, a visitor reported, "No internet access at the campsite. It's a complete dead spot for Verizon anyway. Not good if you're working while camping." Service improves at higher elevations and nearer to towns.
Kid-friendly beaches: Matoaka Beach Cottages offers private beach access ideal for children. A visitor shared, "We tent camped at Matoka Cabins and it was beautiful. Our spot was very private and you could see the bay and hear the waves." Water depth remains shallow for 20-30 feet from shoreline.
Playground access: Multiple locations feature play areas. At Pohick Bay Campground, a visitor mentioned, "They informed us that they had a scavenger hunt for the kids going all weekend, they had an outdoor movie scheduled for Friday night, a campfire story time scheduled for Saturday night and crafts scheduled for Sunday morning."
Camp store amenities: Point Lookout provides basic supplies at their store. As one camper noted, "There is a park store at 10560 Point Lookout Rd on the way to/from the Lighthouse which has toiletries and other necessities you may have forgotten, plus snacks and drinks." Most stores operate limited hours after Labor Day.
Site leveling: Bethpage Camp-Resort receives praise for level sites. A reviewer stated, "We stayed in Sycamore 09. The site was clean and level. No fire pit or grill, so plan ahead." Many parks provide site-specific details online about ground conditions.
Hookup locations: Experienced RVers note that sewer connections vary between parks. At Bethpage Camp-Resort, a visitor mentioned, "Sewer is in 2 locations for each site." Always bring extension hoses as placement may not match your rig's configuration.
Road conditions: Some parks have tight internal roads. A Bethpage visitor cautioned, "Roads are tight." Low-hanging branches can also pose challenges for taller rigs, particularly after storms when parks may not immediately clear debris.
