GuideWe've spent a number of nights tent camping at Christopher Run. The people who manage the site are very nice. The campground and bathrooms are kept clean. The bathrooms are even air-conditioned. Christopher Run has a boat launch as well.
ScoutThese campground is a great find. The sites are well spaced, and while on the smaller side they’re very private with woods between each one. Bathrooms were clean and well stocked. The other campers were all respectful and observed pet policy and quiet hours. I have a reactive dog and he did well here! We’ll be back!
TravelerThere are some good things about this Famcamp. It's like a diamond in the rough. If the military would spend some time and money on it, it could be a great campground. One of the greatest points about this campground is its location. You are so close to downtown D.C.! Every RV site (as far as I saw) was a level concrete pad. All sites, except for tent sites, have full electricity. Most sites have sewer and water. Sites 12-18 should be mainly used for the smaller travel trailers. I had an interesting time getting my 35' 5th wheel into the site. Even though I got my RV into the site, I don't have much room for my truck. My site has a picnic table, fire pit, and a grill. Everything is rusted beyond repair. My grill was filled with cigarette butts and my fire pit had trash in it. There is some shade. My site has two trees at the front of the pad on both sides of the RV. My bedroom stays nice and cold and I have a good view for my Starlink in the rear. The sites are close to each other, but there is some space. The good thing is that we are surrounded by the golf course. You don't get much noise from the base, because of the location, and because the FamCamp is surrounded by trees. You can hear the busy road outside the fence but I don't hear it much inside the RV. Every once in a while you'll hear an aircraft... but this is an air base, it's expected. We were told the community laundry was not working and to use the base laundry mat. Finally, one of the best parts about the campground, is the lady at outdoor rec that is in charge of the Famcamp. She is very nice and helpful. She will try to assist you with anything you need from directions to useful tips.
GuideWe have found municipal campgrounds in Northern Virginia are a bit spendy for being government sponsored. Not as bad as South Carolina, but way more than Florida. Fine. Comes with the territory. But Bull Run manages to goose you even more. There are occupancy AND transaction fees that really add up if you're only there a few nights. But the real kicker is a 2-night minimum stay. Even mid-week. In APRIL for gosh sakes!
While we were here, there was a fairly heavy day of rain. Couple inches, I suppose, but nothing Biblical. The mouths of the metal culverts in our loop were bent downward from campers driving over them, which obstructed the flow. Result was lots of standing water at our campsite.
We're done with NOVA Parks campgrounds. Better cost options exist with Fairfax County Parks.
GuideWhat a gem! We found this place as an alternative to staying in DC during 4th of July festivities. Nice spacious sites, cabins were super clean and smelled great! Did I mention they were air conditioned during the hotest week of the summer!
Bathrooms and showers were spotless.
Many things to see and do there. Historic property, big lake (no swimming), boating, fishing, hiking. There is an Art Center with juried displays for sale.
GuideGreat spot right next to the Rappahannock River, plenty of place to set up camp. Had water on site with a fire pit and picnic table too! It was super easy to get down to the water and there was plenty of spots to explore. Would definitely go again!
ScoutGreat space for rvs and tents. Cabins and yurts available, bath house clean, but toilet paper is thinner than dry onion skin. Beach area is 1/2 mile paved walk. Beach very crowded on weekends.
GuideGreat Park, friendly staff, clean facilities. We stayed with our Pop Up for two nights at an electric -supported site. Portable water and dumping station located at the camp store. We stayed at site 146 on the first caul-de-sac off the first loop just another site away from the bath house (which was pretty clean). We got rained on the first night so things got a little muddy but nothing out of hand. Tons of free activities for the kiddos facilitated by the camp staff over the weekends. Face-painting, ice cream sundaes, S'Mores, hay rides and a rock wall. Park has a lot of things to do as well just outside the campground. We took a try at disc golf which was a lot of fun. Pet friendly. We'll be back!
ScoutWas excited to try first night out in a Kodiak Canvas Truck Bed Tent. Unfortunately, learned NOVA Parks regards anything in a truck bed whether a camper or tent is not welcome. I didn't realize NOVA Parks considers this campground as a resort and vehicle camping - ither than a class A or B - implies homeless and they don't want that image. They do also allow a travel trailer and tents can only be used on the ground not in a truck bed as designed. Beautiful park ... I live nearby in Arlington but was frustrated not able to use a nearby Park and Campground I pay taxes to support. I used another Campground in Fairfax County that was welcoming.
Camping near Dogue, Virginia centers on the Potomac River and Rappahannock River watersheds, where elevation ranges from sea level to about 300 feet. Most campgrounds in this region experience humid subtropical conditions with hot summers and mild winters. Campers should prepare for potential flooding along riverfront sites during spring rainfall when waterways can rise rapidly.
Fossil hunting along riverbanks: At Westmoreland State Park Campground, located on the Potomac River, visitors can search for prehistoric shark teeth and other fossils. "This place was great! My wife and I live in D.C. We brought our dog for an extended weekend. Nice clean sites and beaches, there are 2. One is a drive up and the other is a bit of a hike," notes Christian from his visit to Westmoreland State Park Campground.
Tubing on the Rappahannock: Rappahannock River Campground offers organized river tubing trips during summer months. "This campground is great! Primitive camping at its best. Very friendly staff. We stayed here and went tubing on the Rappahannock River one day. The tubing trip was organized by the same people that run the campground so that was very convenient!" shares Katie M.
Frisbee golf: Wilderness Presidential Resort maintains a full disc golf course for guests. "It's a good place to bring your family to play some Frisbee golf, the RV spots are like being in the woods, indoor pool, lake to swim or fish. You can rent paddle boats and Jon boats," reports James T. about his experience.
Private wooded sites: At Bull Run Regional Park, campsites face the forest rather than the road. "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 Roberta K. This layout provides a sense of seclusion despite being in a developed campground.
Weekend activities: Special events make camping more engaging at several parks. "BR park is absolutely beautiful. So much to do and centered around many historical sites. It's a gem," shares AS about Bull Run Regional Park, which offers climbing walls, nature scavenger hunts, and hayrides on weekends.
High-quality shower facilities: Many campers highlight exceptionally clean bathroom facilities. "They're worth staying again alone. Locking doors, individual stalls. Hot dog. Best camping showers I've ever had," raves Yvonne B. about Bull Run's facilities. Westmoreland State Park also receives praise: "Bathhouses are always SO clean and heated in the winter," notes RL.
Noise considerations: Some campgrounds experience unexpected noise issues. "The only drawback is that it is not quiet. There is a shooting range in the park. It is on a flight path for DCA. And, I-66 is not that far away," explains Drew M. about Bull Run Regional Park. Despite this, he still recommends the campground overall.
Reservations essential: During peak season (May-September), campgrounds fill quickly, especially on weekends. "Westmoreland felt a little crowded at full capacity. Had to wait for restrooms and the beaches were well used," reports Rachel A. about Westmoreland State Park Campground.
Primitive options available: For those seeking basic glamping near Dogue, Virginia, some campgrounds offer more rustic experiences. "Very primitive, tent only camping. Nothing near it and very private. An awesome place to relax!" mentions Jon R. about Rappahannock River Campground, which features outhouses rather than flush toilets.
Water activities for children: Lake Anna State Park Campground offers family-friendly swimming areas. "We absolutely love this camp ground. The swimming area is clean and very family oriented. Our grandchildren love that they are able to bike ride and enjoy the beautiful scenery," shares Jennifer G.
Scavenger hunts: Several parks organize nature exploration activities. "Our family stayed here in a cabin on a long weekend trip to DC. The campground had a climbing wall on one afternoon. There are miles of trails and my grandkids enjoyed the nature scavenger hunt. You even get a prize when you finish," explains Bridget H. about her Bull Run experience.
Biking opportunities: Paved paths at many parks allow for safe cycling. "Our grandchildren love that they are able to bike ride and enjoy the beautiful scenery," notes Jennifer G. about Lake Anna State Park. The park maintains miles of bike-friendly trails suitable for various skill levels.
Site leveling challenges: Some campsites require additional equipment to level RVs properly. "My site had a slight slope, but was easily overcome using additional blocks on the low side to get the trailer level," explains Drew M. about his stay at Bull Run Regional Park.
Shower facilities: Fredericksburg-Washington DC KOA maintains clean shower facilities that RVers appreciate when hookups are limited. "Nice campground, clean, has a general store with plenty of items. Staff were very friendly and escort you to your site," reports Jennifer K., highlighting the cleanliness that makes longer stays comfortable.
Power reliability: Some campgrounds experience electrical issues during peak usage. "While camping at this resort we had several issues with the shore power for our RV. We have spoken to many fellow owners only to find out they had several issues that have been reported to management," shares Eugene M. about Wilderness Presidential Resort, suggesting RVers bring surge protectors when glamping near Dogue.
