    Bull Run Regional Park offers cabin camping for guests who want additional comfort and shelter, with spacious sites situated among forested areas that provide shade and privacy. "We stayed in a cabin for 2 nights and had a great time. The campground had a climbing wall on one afternoon. There are miles of trails and my grandkids enjoyed the nature scavenger hunt," noted one visitor. These cabins include basic amenities with electricity, though specific furnishing details vary. Andy Guest/Shenandoah River State Park also provides cabin accommodations with more developed facilities including heating and cooling systems for year-round comfort.

    Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. At Little Bennett Campground, cabins operate seasonally from April through October, while Bull Run accommodations remain accessible throughout the year. Harpers Ferry Civil War Battlefields KOA features the trademark KOA-style cabins with standardized amenities and layouts. Pet policies differ between locations - some permit dogs in designated cabins while others restrict pets to outdoor areas only. A camper mentioned that Bull Run is "dog and kid friendly with clean facilities," making it suitable for family stays with pets.

    Most cabins include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. Kitchen facilities range from basic countertops with outlets to more equipped cooking areas with microwaves and refrigerators in premium cabins. On-site camp stores at Bull Run and the Harpers Ferry KOA sell essential provisions including firewood, ice, and basic groceries. Bathroom and shower facilities are typically located in nearby bathhouses rather than inside the cabins themselves. Visitors planning extended stays should bring cooking supplies, food storage containers, and cleaning products as these items are rarely provided.

      Gooney Creek Campground

      Quite the dump and almost no one around to talk to. There is a bathroom with running water, flushing toilets, and a shower. But it is cramped and not attractive. Most of the sites are right underneath the freeway, and very noisy. Primitive sites away from the road noise are nothing more than a wide area of the dirt road.

      The Cove Campground

      Excellent Campground

      Was looking for a last-minute getaway on a busy weekend, and they seemed the best option.  I've always associated private campgrounds with crowding and sites on top of each other.  I couldn't have been more wrong about The Cove.  There is more wooded space between sites than in many National Parks. 

      Some sections are best accessed via 4WD, which I think is a great way to keep things from getting too crowded.

      Such a huge diversity of types of sites, from lakeside to wooded, to open fields.  They have something for everyone.

      The bathrooms are ok.  Other than the shower area and the reception, most toilets are pit toilets.  If you want to be walking distance to showers, make sure to book sites near them.  For most sites, it's going to be a hike or a drive.  

      And on top of that, they have a beach for the kids, boat rentals, and a range.

      This was our first visit, but we will definitely be coming back.

      Site #133 — Great site once you figure out the best way to get into it

      We 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.

      Gambrill State Park Campground

      Great Camp Spot

      This is a great camping spot. The sites aren’t too close together and the hosts are very friendly. The only reason I gave it four stars is because we are near a highway so you can hear cars throughout the night. But the crickets make up for it by being as loud as possible. With the fees, it cost $25 for a non-electric site and with access to showers after a long trek I was happy to pay.

      Little Bennett Campground

      Great Potential?

      We stayed at Little Bennett starting on Labor Day Monday and left before the weekend, so it is hard to say how this looks when the campground is full of life. They had quite a few activities for families and a pavilion capable of concerts and such, but there was minimal activity during our stay. My biggest complaint is that the gate code changed and we didn't get any notice--so after a long day and a dinner out near Baltimore (nearly an hour away), I had to call the police to get back to my camper. Otherwise, the campsite was relatively spacious and quiet. The bugs were a little rough. Lots of whitetail running around.

    Guide to Brambleton

    Cabin camping near Brambleton, Virginia offers lodging options within 25-45 minutes of this Northern Virginia community. Located at approximately 300 feet above sea level in Loudoun County, the area experiences four distinct seasons with humidity in summer and occasional snowfall in winter. Cabins provide electric service in most locations, with amenities varying significantly between basic rustic structures and more developed accommodations with full climate control.

    What to do

    Hiking trails at Shenandoah River State Park: The park features extensive trail networks suitable for various skill levels. "Lots of hiking and biking trails. Wild life is visible everywhere you go. The children's programs offered on the weekends were great too," mentions a visitor to Andy Guest/Shenandoah River State Park Campground.

    Fishing opportunities: Multiple cabin sites offer access to nearby fishing. At Brunswick Family Campground, a visitor notes, "Nice grounds and tent pad. Ample camp site size. Just right next to a neighborhood." The location provides "a nice boat loading ramp and dock for fishing" according to another Brunswick Family Campground reviewer.

    Water activities: Several cabin locations provide water recreation options. "The river is mesmerizing and campground staff is welcoming and helpful with any of your needs. Situated next to the river so half of the sites have river views," notes a camper about Brunswick Family Campground. Another reports, "Easy to walk into the river or tube down it."

    Historical exploration: The region offers significant historical sites. "Harpers Ferry National Historical Park is literally next door. Harpers Ferry Lower Town and Bolivar Heights are a few minutes by car," reports a visitor at Harpers Ferry KOA, adding "Frederick and Antietam are each barely 30-minutes by car."

    What campers like

    Cabin comfort levels: Various cabins offer different comfort tiers. A Cherry Hill Park visitor appreciated their premium site: "The site was perfectly level with a fire ring, grill, picnic table and table with three chairs."

    Privacy factors: Some cabin locations provide more privacy than others. "The sites are quiet, very spacious, level, and heavily wooded with 50A service, water and sewer hookup," reports a guest at Little Bennett Campground.

    Accessibility to DC metro area: Many cabin sites serve as convenient bases for DC visits. "Only an hour from the DC area. Sites were generous, and equipped with a good fire pit, and space for parking two cars at our site," notes a Gambrill State Park camper, highlighting the benefit for visitors from urban areas.

    Bathroom facilities: Bathroom quality varies significantly between locations. At Pohick Bay Campground, a visitor observed: "The bathhouse is standard but also has laundry and an outdoor dish washing station." Meanwhile, at Bull Run, a camper praised "the best camping showers I've ever had" with "locking doors, individual stalls."

    What you should know

    Noise considerations: Some cabin locations experience noise issues. "There is a shooting range in the park. It is on a flight path for DCA. And, I66 is not that far away," warns a Bull Run Regional Park visitor. Similarly, at Harpers Ferry Campground, a camper notes: "CSX rail line berm. The trains that come through here almost hourly... if the sound doesn't wake you up, the rumbling ground will."

    Seasonal availability: Not all cabin facilities operate year-round. Gambrill State Park operates from April through October, while other parks like Bull Run maintain year-round cabin accessibility.

    Site spacing: Proximity to neighboring campers varies significantly. "The sites are all pull-through off the roads through the campground. So your camper faces the woods and you feel like you're all alone," explains one Bull Run visitor. Conversely, a Cherry Hill Park camper noted: "I wish there was a little bit more room in between the campers for privacy."

    Reservation requirements: Most cabin facilities require advance booking, especially during peak seasons. At Little Bennett, a visitor mentioned needing to reserve 137 days prior to arrival during busy periods.

    Tips for camping with families

    Playground access: Select cabins near playground facilities. "Our site backed to the playground and the bathhouse. The site was spacious," noted a Pohick Bay Regional Park visitor. They added, "This was an amazing weekend for us and we will definitely be back."

    Organized activities: Some parks offer scheduled family programs. A visitor to Pohick Bay reported, "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."

    Water features: Parks with water activities keep children engaged. At Brunswick Family Campground, a guest observed, "Great location right next the river. Easy to walk into the river or tube down it. Lots of different activities for kids and plenty of space at each site."

    Proximity to attractions: Some cabins provide convenient access to family-friendly locations. Cherry Hill Park offers "proximity to DC and surrounding areas can't be beat. Uber, Lyft, bus, shuttle. It takes about a half hour to get downtown to the monuments," according to one visitor.

    Tips from RVers

    Leveling challenges: Some cabins and RV sites have uneven terrain. At Harpers Ferry Civil War Battlefields KOA, an RVer warned: "Our Pull-thru FHU Patio site had a serious slope. It was impossible to level my 45' motorhome without elevating the front wheels dangerously in the air."

    Utility hookup reliability: Power and water service quality varies. "Out-of-state campers pay higher camping fee than Maryland residents, $66/night... Trees falling on Park power lines caused power outage for hours," reported a Little Bennett camper, highlighting unexpected service disruptions.

    Site size limitations: Not all cabins or RV sites accommodate larger vehicles. At Harpers Ferry KOA, a visitor noted: "Only thing I didn't care for is the sites are pretty close together and some of the back-in sites are not very level."

    Weather preparations: Cabin campers should prepare for regional weather patterns. "It was so very cold the first night we were there (25!). We took advantage of our electric site and used a small space heater to take the edge off of that night!" shared a Gambrill State Park camper, explaining how they adapted to unexpected conditions.
