8 campgrounds with availability this weekend
Spencerville area RV campgrounds offer full hookup sites for motorhomes and travel trailers, from urban parks to year-round facilities. Cherry Hill Park in College Park features full hookup RV sites with 50-amp service, concrete patio pads, and both pull-through and back-in options. Camp Meade RV Park in Laurel accommodates big rigs with 50-amp electric hookups, water, and sewer connections. Bar Harbor RV Park & Marina in Abingdon maintains 91 sites with paved pads, though some waterfront sites require challenging back-in maneuvers. Bull Run Regional Park in Centreville offers year-round camping with both 30-amp and 50-amp service for larger motorhomes. "Our site was a long gravel back-in with 50-amp FHU. The water hook-up is in a pit so it doesn't freeze. The electric worked fine and we were able to reach the sewer with our 20' hose."
Many campgrounds in this region require advance reservations, especially during fall and summer months when sites fill quickly. Access roads at several parks present challenges for larger rigs—Fort Belvoir Travel and RV Camp has tight interior roads with tree obstacles, while Prince William Forest RV Campground features pull-through sites but some overhanging branches need trimming. Dump stations are available at most facilities, though not all offer on-site propane refill service. Cell coverage varies by carrier but remains generally strong throughout the area, with a camper noting "AT&T coverage at Bull Run showed 1-2 bars." Most parks accommodate pets but impose leash requirements and designated walking areas. Winter camping options include Ramblin' Pines in Woodbine and Cherry Hill Park, both maintaining full utility service year-round despite freezing temperatures.

GuideGreat campsite. Fire pit, picnic table, swimming pool ( not open), miniature golf course, laundromat, bathrooms, showers, dump station, gathering areas for groups, playground, and even a horse area and stalls for horses. Dog friendly. Staff was very helpful and curious.
TravelerClose to washington as we could get. Could also park our skoolie bus which was nice and had plenty of close by shower with bathrooms. Keep in mind only one shower per restroom house. We stayed at a pretty slow season so it wasn’t bad. Would recommend if visiting DC! They also have a dump station and water fill up.
GuideWhere we were camping had blown up their dump station. Artillery Ridge helped us out. $10. to dump. If we come to camp in Gettysburg, it will be hear.
GuideYou just can't beat a pennsylvania park. This one is not an exception. Nice clean restroom, plenty of room. Now, what cost a star. Yes, it rained like hell. When we broke camp and go dump. The dump station was overflowing with sewer. Go to the guard shack to tell them, and find another site. None there. Can I go to an unused full hookup to dump? No! I would have to pay for the site. Two hours later, we found a place to dump for $10.
ScoutWe stayed in site #133 with our 34'10" travel trailer/toy hauler. Overall, we really like the site. It's spacious, fairly level, heavily wooded, and feels surprisingly private. There's plenty of room around the camper, and although there are other campsites and cabins nearby, the trees provide a lot of separation. We had a nice large area for our chairs, fire pit, picnic table, and dogs. The biggest thing to know about #133 is the approach. We were instructed to pass the site, go around the loop, and then make a left turn into it. With our nearly 35' trailer, that would have required an extremely tight, almost 90-degree turn between the trees, and we did not feel we could safely make it. There is actually visible damage on one of the trees at the entrance, so it appears others may have had difficulty with the turn as well. Instead, we approached from the opposite direction and positioned the camper with our doors facing the main campsite area. That put the water and electric hookups on the opposite side, but our hoses and cord were long enough to run underneath the camper and reach without a problem. Once we figured that out, the site worked very well for us. I initially thought we probably wouldn't choose #133 again because of the awkward setup, but after spending the weekend here, I would. Now that we know how to approach and position our trailer, it really is a nice site. If you're bringing a longer travel trailer, just be prepared to do a little maneuvering and make sure your water hose and electrical cord have enough length if you decide to orient your camper the way we did.
ScoutSimple and friendly check in process. Clean and well-maintained site.
GuideSpent two nights while we saw the Avett Brothers play at Wolf Trap. Nice flat site with power. Campground was quiet and clean. The only negative is communication and signage. It took us a couple wrong turns to find our site and when we came back, after the concert around 11, the entrance gate was closed and we had to sneak in through the exit gate. Asked the next day and they said that is what campers do to access the park after 11pm.
ScoutThis is are first camping adventure in are new travel trailer. Camp ground is quiet and well maintained. Bath rooms and shower facilities are fantastic.
GuidePrimitive feel with full hookups. I have a 22' trailer, and it fits fine. I hope you like trains. Plenty of them go by.
Spencerville area RV campgrounds provide outdoor recreation options within easy driving distance of Washington DC. This region sits at an elevation of around 400 feet with rolling hills and wooded landscapes intersected by various waterways and creeks. Winter camping remains available at several locations with protective water hookup designs to prevent freezing.
Hiking trails and nature exploration: Prince William Forest offers extensive trails adjacent to the campground. "Prince William Forest is a fantastic National Parks forest. ATT coverage is good," notes Kristen M., who camped there with her family despite some sites needing tree trimming along interior roads.
Waterfront activities: Bar Harbor RV Park & Marina provides direct water access for fishing and boating. "Beautiful water front sites and good location right off 95. Cute little dock, fishing from your campsite if waterfront and an area to put in small boats or kayaks," reports Casey L. The campground maintains 91 paved sites with full hookups.
Historical sites: Campers staying at Harpers Ferry Campground can walk to significant Civil War sites. "Harper's Ferry is a beautiful place to hike, camp and visit. Highly recommended!" shares Annie S. The campground sits along the Potomac River with a 1.5-mile walking path to the historic town.
Swimming options: Multiple pools provide relief during hot summer months. "They have a nice pool and bath house. Close to everything," states Mary P. about Prince William Forest RV Campground. Most facilities close their pools during off-season months, typically reopening in late May.
Waterfront camping: Riverside sites rank among the most popular options. "Wonderful tent campground. It is right on the river so you can go swimming right from your campsite!" explains Robin W. about Harpers Ferry Campground, though she notes the proximity to train tracks might disturb light sleepers.
Clean facilities: Well-maintained bathhouses receive consistent praise. "Bathrooms/showers: very clean, spacious, centrally located. My spot was in the back row and I didn't mind the walk," reports Megan K. about her stay at Prince William Forest RV Campground.
Family amenities: Ramblin' Pines offers extensive children's activities. "The camground offers a lot for the money. There's a pond for fishing, a pool for swimming and a little general store for all your needs, the kids loved the bounce pillow," shares Michelle L., though she noted mini-golf needed maintenance.
Proximity to attractions: Convenient location for Washington DC trips provides added value. "Campground is close (ish) to the DC area. It is easy and convenient to get to," explains Kristen M. Most campgrounds in the region sit within 30-45 minutes of major attractions.
Seasonal considerations: Winter camping requires preparation but remains available. "Our site was a long gravel back-in with 50-amp FHU. The water hook-up is in a pit so it doesn't freeze," shares one camper about Bull Run Regional Park, which operates year-round.
Site spacing variations: Some campgrounds feature tighter arrangements than others. "Sites have reasonable spacing with gravel pads, mostly level. Trees between sites with sloping hills, not just a big open field," notes John L. about Round Top Campground in nearby Gettysburg.
Reservation requirements: Most parks require advance bookings, especially during peak season. "If you, like me, hate making reservations over the phone, it was worth it! Quick, simple, painless process," explains Megan K. about Prince William Forest RV Campground.
Location specifics: Several parks have unique access considerations. "You need military credentials. Handy to the DC Metro Transit system. Nice views of river," reports Mike H. about Fort Belvoir Travel and RV Camp, noting that supplies aren't available close to camping areas.
Kid-friendly activities: Look for campgrounds with multiple recreation options. "They had a campfire complete with s'mores followed by hayrides. Great family friendly campground," explains Bridget H. about Bull Run Regional Park, which also offers a climbing wall and nature scavenger hunts.
Bathroom proximity: When camping with children, consider facility locations. "Only drawback I think for us on this trip is we wished the bath houses were closer. But they seemed to be clean and well maintained," shares Michelle L. about her experience at Ramblin' Pines.
Off-site attractions: Plan day trips to nearby points of interest. "DC just up the road. National Marine Corp Museum just around corner," explains Kenneth H. about Prince William Forest, highlighting educational opportunities within short driving distance.
Pool availability: Swimming facilities operate seasonally at most locations. "The pool was shut down due to the pump breaking," reports Charles S. about his summer stay at Round Top Campground, emphasizing the importance of confirming amenity status when booking.
Site leveling requirements: Prepare leveling equipment for varied terrain. "My site had a slight slope, but was easily overcome using additional blocks on the low side to get the trailer level," shares Drew M. about his stay at Bull Run Regional Park.
Interior road challenges: Some campgrounds present navigation difficulties. "Almost all sites are pull through and are close together. Most have some tree cover (and some of the trees could use a trim along the roads)," notes Kristen M. about Cherry Hill Park, adding that the location remains convenient despite these challenges.
Hookup access: Utility placement varies between parks. "Water hookup access was on the ground. It was raining and the area was saturated with no where to drain," reports Elvira A. about Bar Harbor RV Park & Marina, highlighting the importance of proper equipment for various connection scenarios.
Site selection strategy: Consider layout when making reservations. "Look at the park map and try to get a site at the end of a row. The sites are pretty close together but on the ends at least you only have a neighbor on one side," suggests Scott C. about Cherry Hill Park.
