GuideNice weekend trip. The resort has lots of things for kids to do on the weekend. Too bad it's cold this 74 year old kid would like to hit that water slide. They did have a water problem, so they handed out free bottled water for cooking and drinking.
GuideI fear that yurt glamping may have ruined me against tent camping again! This was absolutely lovely. We stayed in the painted horse yurt. Cozy, comfy, lots of amenities. The only downside here is the sulfur odor the water in the bathroom has, but it is very good for your skin at least! I’d stay here again for sure.
GuideQuite 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.
ScoutWas 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.
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.
ScoutThe campground is a nice size with enough space between sites to feel as though you have some privacy.
We reserved site 4 online but someone had set up there when we arrived. Site 6 was open and it had a better view anyway and was farther away from the toilets, so we didn’t mind.
The boat launch is right there which we planned to paddle board in the morning, but got rained out. The river looks really nice and clean though.
Tables and fire pits are a great size. We saw some gorgeous stars as there isn’t any light pollution.
It’s only half hour from Berkeley Springs, so fill up your spring water for free there and then come enjoy the campsite!
Will definitely return.
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.
RangerWe 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.

The area sits at approximately 550 feet elevation with temperatures ranging from 30°F in winter to 85°F in summer.

Hiking on the C&O Canal towpath: Brunswick Family Campground provides direct access to miles of flat, historic trails. "The C&O canal, so you could walk or bike for miles in either direction for hours! Harpers Ferry is only 6 miles away on the trail," notes Susan K.
Tubing and river activities: Enjoy water-based recreation at Harpers Ferry Campground - River Riders where sites are positioned along the water. "Gorgeous spot on the river. Small campground with not a lot of amenities BUT THAT RIVER IS GORGEOUS. Lots of activities - tubing, zip lining, fishing," shares Darcy S.
Historical exploration: Visit nearby Civil War sites and historic towns. "Harpers Ferry National Historical Park is just a stone's throw away, with great hiking, sight-seeing, and cute little shops," mentions Jen V. when describing her stay at Harpers Ferry / Civil War Battlefields KOA.
Spacious wooded sites: Little Bennett Campground offers natural privacy between campsites. "The sites are quiet, very spacious, level, and heavily wooded with 50A service, water and sewer hookup," reports Ray & Terri F.
River access: Direct waterfront camping allows for spontaneous swimming and fishing. "The Shanandoah is just as beautiful. The showers could use a good cleaning but they are typical Campground showers perfect for the campground life," notes Brian S. about Brunswick Family Campground.
Clean facilities: Many campgrounds maintain good bathroom standards. "Bathrooms were reasonably clean as well, although they could certainly use some TLC and updating (most MD state park bathhouses are nicer)," writes Jen V. about her KOA experience.
Train noise: Several campgrounds near Round Hill sit close to active rail lines. "The Marc train runs right above your head all night. If you are looking for a relaxing camp experience make sure to bring your noise cancelling headphones," warns Kristen M. about Harpers Ferry Campground.
Site crowding: During peak seasons, expect close neighbors at certain locations. "The sites were all grass and gravel. However, the area with pull-through sites for big rigs was just a huge RV parking lot. All roads were very narrow and winding," shares Jen V.
Seasonal water park access: Call ahead to verify amenities before booking glamping close to Round Hill, Virginia. "I called their customer service number and asked if the water park would be open. I was told yes. We arrive on our first day of 4, put on our swimsuits, and play in the splash park for several hours... next day... closed for the season," reports David about Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park in Williamsport MD.
Pack river shoes: Riverfront camping requires appropriate footwear. "Unfortunately that area of the river has a very muddy/mucky bottom so you will need to walk (not far) down to the rocky entrance so you don't lose your water shoes," advises Kristen M.
Book early for premium sites: Secure the best locations, especially for glamping options near Round Hill. "Primitive Camping spots were all taken however, so arrive early if you want one of those," suggests John B. about Andy Guest/Shenandoah River State Park Campground.
Look for included activities: Some campgrounds offer free entertainment. "Bull Run Regional Park had a climbing wall on one afternoon. There are miles of trails and my gkids enjoyed the nature scavenger hunt. You even get a prize when you finish," shares Bridget H. about Bull Run Regional Park.
Site leveling challenges: Come prepared with leveling blocks. "Our Pull-thru FHU Patio site(#199) had a serious slope. It was impossible to level my 45' motorhome without elevating the front wheels dangerously in the air," reports Matt S. from Harpers Ferry KOA.
Consider full hookup options: For extended stays, select sites with all connections. "D Loop is for RVs, A, B, C& E are tents only. AT&T 5 MB/s w/o booster(1 bar), 8 MB/s with it(2 bars). There is no satellite coverage due to the heavy tree canopy," explains Ray & Terri F. about Little Bennett.
Reserve end sites when possible: Corners often provide more space and privacy. "The sites are well maintained, and felt separated enough to have some privacy... sites on the ends are by far larger than the center," advises Lauren B. about camping at Brunswick Family Campground.
