Nice little site, going winter camping there on the 24th. Very peaceful and pretty next to the river. This is a free first come first serve campsite.

Simple but nice campsite along the C&O Canal just north of Harpers Ferry. Enough space for 6-8 tents, a fire ring, and outhouse. The water pump was working when I visited in July, but make sure to check ahead if you’re relying on the pump for water (I wasn’t).

Only major downside is that all the boaters ok the water can be pretty loud, which detracts a bit from the tranquility.

Nice campsite about a mile up river from Harpers Ferry. Stopped in Harpers Ferry for dinner then headed up to the site and pitched the tent. Nice flat surface, directly adjacent to the towpath, so not very private but also not much traffic on that part of the trail. Bathroom on site and a fire pit and table. Access to the river is easy. Overall nice site. I did not attempt to use the water pump there, had already refilled in Harpers Ferry.

Good camping spot. Water pump needs serviced. 1 picnic table. 1 bbq and firepit.
Late night fisherman gave us entertainment for the night as they missed their catch right below us. Otherwise peaceful and just off the C&O towpath. Nice shell beach up two tenths of a mile towards Shepherdstown.

Decent campsite. Spent one night here biking from DC and back again. Be warned that the water pump doesn't work (the lever is completely missing) and the pump between here and Harper's Ferry is out too. The toilet was frankly disgusting. Saying that, all portapotties along the c&o seem to be that are not easy to service. Opted for not using it completely. The mosquitoes aren't awful, but they made their presence known. The fireflies on the other hand are out of this world. They lit up the whole tent for hours. Really magical stuff.
