Pohick Bay Regional Park

Great staff at the park and check in center. Nicole was a fairly new employee that went out her way several times to help us. She has a great smile and personality! All the staff we encounter were pleasant. Site 12 was wide and easy to back in to and set-up/level our travel trailer. It would be nice if the more sites offered water h... more

This was just a spot for me to park and sleep while I went in to DC to visit the Holocaust Memorial. I paid about $20 for an Uber ride (Express Pool) into DC (Lincoln Memorial) on a Sunday morning. It took about 45 mins maybe a little less. You can also take the metro from the Franconia-Springfield station which is about 11 miles and ... more

Positives: friendly staff, clean bathrooms with free hot showers, nice laundry facilities that consist of 2 full size washers and dryers in both bathroom/shower houses for only $2 a load, trees provide privacy between sites that are spaced pretty well and easy to access, nice grassy area in the c... more

If you camp in the middle of the big loop, you'll get a great spot. The two best spots in this campground are 67 & 75, both of which have full hooku... more

We tent camped with a group in an overflow camping area on a weekend in late October. The park was pretty full, but thinned out Sunday night. Very clean and modern restrooms and laundry facilities. Cabins avail... more

Stayed here for 2 nights. It rained while we were here so unfortunately we couldn't take advantage of the kayaking/river activities and the trails were muddy. They have various types of sites, including full hook up sites but we were in an electric only site. Site 72 was relatively level but just a little close on one side to our ne... more

This park has lots of things to do such as: Swimming Kayaking Golfing (Miniature) Golfing (Frisbee) Hiking Biking The sites are mostly under trees and the roads are well maintained. The prices are good for east coast camping. Everyone we met was friendly, and professional. Best of all it's very close to the Washington... more
