This is the only RV park in the Frederick area not at a state park. It's part mobile home part RV. It's not a vacation RV resort in any sense, it's definitely got more long term stays. Everyone had their own private lots which are nice but it is very tightly packed in. Every site has full hookups, cable, and trash service which is great. You are in Frederick so you are close to basically everything. You can walk to Aldi, Panera, amazing local restaurants. You're near Walmart, Target, Sheetz and Wawa. The location cannot be beaten for Frederick. Making reservations was a little nerve-wracking since it's was just said that there was a site available and to call a half-hour before arriving. We arrived with no issues though. It's a little rednecky but everyone is super nice and offers to help.
Not the best RV park, not the worst.
All sites are 50amp too so if you have a 30amp rig, you'll need a converter.

My wife and I stayed for two nights at this campground and enjoyed it greatly. We happened to be assigned what I believe was the best of the RV sites, a pull through that had full hook up. We have a 32 foot trailer. The site we were assigned was easily accessed and had a nice view of the campground. However, as we drove through the rest of the RV park area we noted that many of the sites had very awkward back-in approaches that did not provide sufficient area to maneuver a large rig into them. The lake is gorgeous and has a large, sandy beach. Would love to spend more time there to explore the park further. There are numerous tent sites, some with electric, that appear to be large and fairly level.

Took our new Fifth Wheel for a shakedown trip and decided to try Twin Bridges Campground. Staff was polite, amenities are great and clean, and everyone was friendly and polite. Big spacious sites, and a honeywagon to make things easier (there weren't any full hookup sites the I saw besides the long term spaces). Would definatley stay here again.
Scout
Hodgepodge mix of tent sites and long term motor homes on a creek which is nice . Owner is strange and will yell at clients blaming them of chopping down trees when they haven’t or other false claims.
Guide
Our stay was great. Our site was gravel, clean and pretty flat and level. Now, this place has the amenities of a resort, but the feeling of a campground. With that being said, it does cater to many seasonal, long term sites where the campers do not ever move their RV. All of the people were super friendly, both the staff and the long-term campers. We were here during the week and it was super quite. I can see the weekend being a bit louder, but that is every campground. You are about a mile hike from the Western Maryland Rail Trail.or short 5min or sondrive to the C&O Canal Towpath. Both are very pleasant ways to spend your time if you're not using the amenities at the campground (pool, volleyball, basketball, mini-golf). There is a store that is pretty fairly priced for many items and a food service area that is only open on weekends (seems to not be busy during the week). The only negative would be that because most of the campers are seasonal/long-term, they all have golf carts or 4-wheelers that they ride around on and that can get old quick. I would say that it is well worth the cost and if you needed a place to stay, worth giving them a shot.

What a hidden gem Camp Capapon, is. This is exactly my idea of camping. Beautiful place, tucked in the woods, right next to the river. The RV campsite is spacious, private, shaded, and with full hook-ups. The RV spot is perfect, so leveled all you have to do is shock your wheels. We brought our kayaks and got them on the river for some time. The scenery will take your breath away. I just fell in love with the place and will be back. Mr. Sullivan was very accommodating, helpful and responsive. Pet friendly, Wifi is provided, and the facilities are in pristine conditions. What else could you ask for???? I'm having mixed feelings about reviewing the place, because I want it all to myself, lol, no but seriously, do yourself a favor and take a trip here, you will not regret it.

This place is right outside the gate of Harpers Ferry NP. We walked to the shuttle bus stop. It is a very large KOA, and was almost empty when we visited in September. The original site the gave us had a large rut and washed out spot, so we could not get level. I checked in the office and the reassigned another space that was much better. Full hook ups, nice clean shower and bathrooms, playground, pool, large dog park.
TravelerBeautiful location right on the river. Meticulously maintained campground. Plenty of space for relaxing experience. Only two RV sites yet full hook up which is a rare find. Just 20 minutes outside of town for dog friendly restaurants such as Lot 12 and Beddylou’s
Highly recommend

The campground offers full hook ups, a nice clean pool & facilities. Spacious campsites & the owners are super sweet. Will camp there again!

The William Houck Campground offers plenty of on-site resources and spots for weekend visitors or for long-term campers. More than 100 spots available, this place is as popular as ever in the summer, as it is located a short walk from the Cunningham Falls and Lake. Loads of great trails nearby, along with the water and the flowing rapids make for an amazing stay. Weekends can be pretty hectic with crowds, so keep that in mind while planning your stay.
ScoutSo happy we discovered Sullivan’s Camp Cacapon! The camp is meticulously clean and maintained, and the owners , Mark & Ann , are so hospitable, going out of their way to make sure our visit was safe, fun and secure! We were thrilled to have a full hook up for our RV AND have a large private site! We will definitely be repeat customers!

Greenbrier is working on a long term dam project so the water level at the lake is down 4 ft. For boating, kayaking, etc, it is no mater. For swimming though, it means no swimming, just wading. But it is just so relaxing and peaceful, it didn't matter at all.
Quite park. Some spots are fairly private but these sites are not far from each other. We found a great spot and had some privacy. Showers & bathroom facilities were as clean as you would expect for camping.
These sites are big enough for a bigger tent, a pavilion and maybe a pup tent. Not real big. But adequate.
We hiked around the lake, spent time at the beach, and simply enjoyed ourself!!
Scout
Right on the river! Plenty of room for Big 5th wheels the lower sights are a little close but nothing terrible. People are very friendly. You can float the river from old fields right to your camp! Full hook ups very clean. Price is right too. Great weekend place.

To whom it may concern.
my family and I were guest at the Resort over Columbus Day weekend. We were at the Resort in October 2019 and remember how well it was kept up and clean and we looked forward to returning, not the case this weekend we were disappointed on how dirty, trashy and gloomy the Resort has become. Many of the long-term camping sites looked dirty and the trailers are not being kept up or maintained. Some sites had trash bags thrown around. The showers were dirty with bugs everywhere, definitely did not want to experience a shower in there.
Our family group had reserved three campsites and a chalet. We all had problems. When we made the reservations you ask, and we told you, the size of our campers. One was a large motorhome given a site which they could never fit and at luckily the office was open to make a change. Another camper was put in a site which was so small they could not use their awning and very close to their neighbor who were using their hook-ups, they too had to be moved. Your reservation personnel needs to be familiar with what size campers can go in what slots. It looks bad on you that they do not know the layout of the campground.
As for my site I was in #90. The site was un-level and uneven, a 15% incline, which I could not get the camper level. Sites all around me (89,91,92,93) were more level than what I had to deal with. With the incline issue I also had a sewage problem where the pipes were higher than the camper and I could not empty my tanks, water does not go up-hill. After the rain Saturday evening into Sunday we discovered the sewage line was clogged and we had the smell of sewage. There was trash and kids toys scattered around the site. I would also recommend that the fire pit be moved into site 90, right now it is in the middle of 89 and 90 and if used it could do damage to another camper or hurt someone in the process.
Since I could not dump on my site - because it was clogged I had to go to the dump station. Your pipe is 2-feet off the ground and was even with the camper so the sewage couldn’t go down and I had to get my mother to hold it so I could walk the lines up. This is not right, no one likes to deal with sewage. Suggest you cut the pipe down so sewage can go down in the pipe.
We also had family members staying in the Chalet and loved it, HOWEVER they mentioned how the water was brown and dirty and smelled so they were afraid of drinking it or taking a shower.
Needless to say we all were disappointed in our stay and remarked how much the Resort had declined and not been maintained which is sad because it used to be nice. We will not be returning and will not give a recommendation.
TravelerThis is a very nice converted single family residence turned into a tent and cabin camping area with one RV spot. The RV spot overlooks the camping area and has full hookups. Campground is located on 8 acres with excellent upkeep and grounds maintenance. The site is obviously a labor of love for the owner. It has nice water access to a creek that is wide and inviting. Mixes tall trees with well manicured grass areas. Check out the abundant chainsaw art. It’s a bit out of the way, but road access is good for all but large rigs. All in all, we had a very laid back enjoyable stay. Would recommend to a camper looking for something different.

It is a monday so I imagine this place would be much busier on the weekend but it's nice and quiet. Sites are very close together with a couple trees in between, overall lots of trees. There was only one other active camper in our section maybe 3 or 4 sites down so it was a very peaceful stay and felt like we mostly had the section to ourselves. Our site P1 is a full hook up pull through but it's really unlevel. We ran out of blocks trying to level on this site and were still off a bit. If we were staying more than a night we may have asked for a different site. Sites and roads are gravel, nice newer fire pit and picnic table at each. There is a pool, basketball hoops, and a fully stocked camp store with campground merch, blankets, snacks, toiletries, a lot of rv parts, refrigerated food necessities, pantry items, alcohol, cigarettes, games, fishing gear....really a lot of stuff! Really cute duck/goose pond you can even fish in (catch and release) and a nice gazebo to relax in. Really a nice campground with great hosts. Only complaint is the closeness of other sites, luckily no one else was around.
ScoutWe loved our stay at Sullivan’s. We stayed for a full week at their RV site with our 32ft camper trailer. Coming mid-week we enjoyed most of the campground to ourselves. A great place to unwind & enjoy nature. Host was great and made sure to send all the details, checked in with us mid week to see how things were going and ensures we enjoyed our stay after we left. 5 star service!
(Be sure to download checkin instructions prior to arrival as there is wifi, but no cell service … bonus for relaxation!)
GuideSo this is my second time at Happy Hills Campground in Hancock, MD from June 25th-28th. It being relatively close to the home is the reason for choosing it because of doctor appts for the kids.
The site I was in (F1) was really small and very close to the neighboring site. We got lucky no one was camping next to us. It had full hook-ups (30amp/water/sewer) and a pull thru site with picnic table and fire ring. It was $40/night. This campground is mainly for monthly site rentals with more than 3/4 of them permanent sites.
Lots of golf cart and ATV traffic with no quiet hours that I am aware of. We weren't informed the pool would be open and you had to sign up for two hour timeslots to get in. This must have been information only available to the regulars here. Also cell service (Sprint roaming most of the time) is terrible and the campground wifi is spotty at best. The camp store was closed due to COVID so if needed anything you had to go to town.
Bathrooms were clean. Never checked out the showers but heard they were free.
Overall, I wasn't a happy camper. I don't think I will be back.
LegendThis campground is huge, and very crowded. We were there in the days leading up to 4th of July, and there was not a single empty site. Our section had mostly pop-ups and mid-size travel trailers, so 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. We did fine with the pup, but can’t imagine trying to navigate a large motorhome through there. Crowding/space issues aside, this is a really nice (albeit expensive) campground. Almost everything, from the grounds, to rec halls, to pool and laundry, was sparkling clean and beautifully maintained. Bathrooms were reasonably clean as well, although they could certainly use some TLC and updating (most MD state park bathhouses are nicer).Staff was very friendly, as well. Tons of stuff to do here, especially for families: arts & crafts, indoor movie theatre, games, civil war reenactments, wine tastings, etc. We were certainly never bored, and the kids thought they had died and gone to heaven. Our site was extremely close to our neighbor's site, but still surprisingly roomy and decently shaded. We were right next to the pancake hut (free daily pancake breakfast included during the on-season) and playground, and very close to other activities. Harpers Ferry National Historical Park is just a stone's throw away, with great hiking, sight-seeing, and cute little shops.
Overall, this is a really nice place, but much more of a resort than a campground in my opinion. The kids loved it, but I’ll always prefer the wooded seclusion of a state or national park. However, if I was looking for a more action-packed, activities-filled “glamping” experience, I wouldn’t hesitate to return.

I’ve been camping at this RV park since I was a young child, and have watched it develop and become larger over the years but it certainly has not lost its amazing charm. There’s something for everyone, and where everyone is respected and appreciated by the local family ownership. If you haven’t been before, you should definitely check it out for an overnight or a longer stay if possible.
ScoutI’m local to Frederick MD, and this is a mobile home neighborhood, apparently with some new spots available for travelers — not an RV park. The location is awesome if you just need somewhere to park for a few nights while you go do stuff all day in the Frederick area. But its a tiny area wedged between the back of Lowes and a very busy road, so dont expect anything relaxing, or scenic, or anything for kids to do on the “park” grounds.

RV spaces were a little tight for a campfire but staff were great, bathrooms clean and nice food amenities

Let me say first off, I have never given a negative or bad review to anything or anyone, thats just not me. Our family stayed here in May, 2022 and it was very enjoyable now 2 months later. We invited our family to stay at the campground, now July, 2022 the management was charging our family for 2 Grandchildren as visitors each day. When speaking to the management about this, he told me it wasn't my business. My cousin had told me how she approached him the day before about the charges and he literally was yelling at her and that it is what it is and shes not getting any refunds. I said to him that on line it states 2 adults and 2 children and the manager stated"I don't need to explain details to me, on line or to anyone" I said that is false advertising, he said he would change it immediately but then said he was listing me and my family as problematic campers and not welcomed back. I told him that they had already been reported to Good Sam's and the Better Business Bureau and he said he didn't care. That they were leaving Good Sams anyway. I also asked him about customer service, he said he didn't care and he didn't need to give any. PASS THIS ALONG AND if you care for camping or your family, DO NOT GO TO CANDY HILL CAMPGROUND IN WINCHESTER, VA.

I grew up camping with my family at Rocky Gap every summer. The best feature of Rocky Gap is the versatility of the campgrounds. There are options for RV camping with electric, tent spots, small cabins, and the resort if you would rather have a more comfortable resort experience. Pets are allowed in a select few loops.
They have a range of activities available including a large lake to swim, fish or paddle. There are a few trails for hiking, at least 2 small “beach” areas off the lake with play grounds and a camp store. You can also go over to the casino resort for entertainment and food.
Alcohol is not permitted outside of the resort which is partly why I say this camping experience is better for families. Rangers routinely monitor the site loops and there is a quiet hours period, I believe starting at 10pm and you will have a ranger pull up on you if you do not adhere.
CAMPSITES BREAKDOWN:
Type: Gravel Vehicle Accessible: Yes Size: ~ 1 large tent or 2 compact tents. Most are the same size, fairly small spots. Bathroom: Communal bathhouses in the middle of each loop with toilets, sinks and showers. Fire pit: Yes, with grill grate. Firewood: Must buy firewood at camp store. Water access: Some, depending which part of the loop your site is located on. Electric: No unless RV camping. Alcohol Policy: Not permitted unless drinking in the Resort or a motor home. Other Features: Picnic table, small wood post counter / hook to hang a lantern on and place a camp stove on.
LegendUgh, this was one of the worst campgrounds we have stayed at in our twelve years of full-time RVing. First of all, the sites are very close together. Our site (which was#20 on the map but the number at our electric post was#102, go figure!) was supposed to be a pull-thru but we had to unhook the car because the site was so short and hard to get into due to narrow roads and tight turns with trees. The park is definitely not big-rig friendly, and all the sites are very close. There are many seasonals with old, dilapidated campers with lots junk around them.
We assume they call themselves a “resort” because there is a swimming pool, mini-golf, pavilion, playground, rental cabins, ball fields, dog park and a fishing pond, but it didn’t live up to the standards we consider for a resort. The mini-golf was in horrible condition. Everything was old and run-down. The “chalets” where super outdated, there was trash everywhere in the campground. Lots of seasonal sites with junk everywhere at their site. Behind us was a family who left their mean-looking barking dog chained to the tree all the time. The bathrooms are super outdated, and we wouldn’t even go in. Luckily, we had a full hook-up site. The nicest looking area of the park is the 8,000 square-ft Clubhouse which has a café, game room, adult lounge, wide screen tv, fitness center, and jacuzzi. We were there early in the season so some amenities were closed. There are farm animals on the property and a petting zoo with pigs, horses, ponies, goats, ducks, etc. They have a busy summer schedule of events which I’m sure entertains the kids and adults, but we weren’t staying long enough to participate.
Inside the brochure you get when you check-in are two-pages of guidelines and rules (which I doubt anyone reads). One of rules (#8) states that you have to clean up your area prior to departure, but since the seasonals weren’t departing I guess all the trash around their site was acceptable. That rule also states that fire pits have to be clean to fire pits but there were many fire pits full of trash.
I was a little nervous plugging into our electrical post which was completely wobbly and barely attached to anything and literally held together with packing tape– visions of an unpleasant electrocution experience flashed in my head. There is no cable but we were able to get seven over-the-air antenna channels (only one major network– ABC). All the utilities were at the back of our site and it took me a few minutes to find the sewer outlet which was near our neighbors designated parking spot. I suppose the only good thing was that Skyline Ranch Resort is a Passport America park and we only paid $35+tax/night for a 50-amp FHU site (which would have been the ridiculous high price of $70 otherwise). The only reason the campground gets two stars is because it was cheap for FHU. We would NOT stay here again.
TravelerAbout an hour northwest of Washington, DC, Greenbrier State Park is a great choice for car camping. The campground features four camp loops (1 with electric hookups for RVs, and one that accepts dogs). Each loop winds its way up a hillside, in a woodsy setting, so even though the sites are close to one another, you get a feeling of separation. In the center of each loop is a bathroom & shower building. Each site is a well groomed crushed gravel pad with a picnic table and fire ring, and ample room to set up a tent or two.
In addition to camping, Greenbrier offers a swimming beach, kayak/canoe rentals, and some tough, rocky east-coast mountain biking, all without leaving the park.

This campground is a great place for families. Everything from a waterpark, to a lazy river, adult pool, playgrounds, hay rides, activity center, volleyball, hiking trails, and a store are available. The sites are level, but full sun. Full hookups.
