Surrounded by tall Oak and Poplar trees 1mile off the Appalachian trail. Cars do fine driving into the spot to park. There is some wood around to burn to forage for. Lots of trails l, breweries, wineries, rivers and such nearby. This is not good for toddlers but kids 6 and up will be fine. Thank you and enjoy

Fall Fun 🤩
My husband and I really enjoyed this campsite! It was so much fun. The area was gorgeous. The weather was perfect. The site was clean and spacious. Everything was so peaceful and quiet. Matt stopped by to check on us and see if we needed anything. He is a great host! I definitely recommend this place and will be coming back again. I knew we were going to have a nice fall weekend, but this far exceeded my expectations.

Hidden Gem for last minute camping.
Absolutely perfect camping experience! This tent campsite exceeded all expectations. The grounds were pristine, and it was clear that Matt put great care into maintaining each site. The wooded forest views are awesome with plenty of shade and privacy thanks to the well-spaced trees. Amenities like clean porta-john restroom. We loved the peaceful atmosphere and awesome campfire pits. It’s a five-star gem that we can't wait to visit again!

Great weekend!
Quality spot. Quiet, chill. Host was friendly and helpful, easy access to hiking, Harper's Ferry, rivers, trails, etc. Close to local stores for necessities. Spot a Pot was close and clean. No neighbors/minimal human interactions. We played music, built large campfires. Host had wood for sale plus plenty of wood in surround forest. I'm coming back.

Smith Ridge lower corner
Site is nice and wooded. Price is really higher for a bare site with no water or electric ($86/night) Worse part were the 4-wheelers that had no exhaust flying down the gravel road at all times of the night. 12am, 2am, 3am. Not only loud but going very fast. I won’t be returning nor would I suggest this location to anyone.

Great location for hiking and most anything in the ferry area. Matt was awesome and came by a few times to make sure we had everything we needed. Would definitely come back!

This is a great spot. Nice area for tent with table and fire pit near one another. The campsite is very close to Harper’s Ferry - good spot if you want to spend a few days in a comfortable spot. Matt was really helpful getting me set up when I arrived. I will definitely be back
