Update with new photos - April 2023
A good place to enjoy Virginia bluebells and lots of wild flowers along the C&O Canal Towpath from early/mid April. Park at White's Ferry parking lot, walk toward south east direction for about half to one mile

I stayed at Turtle Run in the fall of 2024 for a long distance bike trip. This is a medium sized site that is mostly open, with trees mostly along the edge. The pump worked and like all in the free campsites on the C&O trail, was non-potable. Decent place that served it purpose well.

I was surprised there wasn't a dead body in port-a-potty ... I went in and puked a little in my mouth. It looked like a goat bowels went crazy in there ...

Have enjoyed stopping here during my recent walk on the towpath on October 27th. The campsite 🏕 is well maintained, organized and taken care of by superintendent Kevin Brandt and his super awesome staff and crew. It is located about a half mile east of the historic whites Ferry.

One of the Nicest Campsites.. Great stop for Lunch
