I just stayed there last month. It was a stopover on our way from Pennsylvania to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. I wouldn't use that campground for anything other than a one night stop. The site we got was so unlevel I couldn't even get enough blocks under one side of my trailer to get it level. I had to use a borrowed 2x4 from the campground plus 8 leveling blocks to get level! On top of that my electric hookup showed a hot neutral but the campground insisted there was nothing wrong with it and that it was normal for voltage to be present on the neutral! I've never heard that before. Personally I would not go back there. And don't accept site 89 unless you enjoy doing a lot of work to get level and don't care if the electrical is wired correctly.

I’ll second Robert’s motion for the trike. I don’t have experience with them, but I’ve heard complaints that sidecars really make riding a chore for the operator. Weight and mass imbalances make turns to the right different than to the left, and can cause the bike to swerve when stopping. You may also need to add weight to the sidecar if it is unoccupied. Then again, I suppose you can get accustomed to anything with experience. Paul

It's sandwiched between the C&O canal rail trail and the Potomac River. Lots of opportunities to bike, boat, and bivouac all in one location. We tubed the Potomac for hours last weekend.

Elk Neck was our go to spot every other week when we started camping 40 years ago, especially when we took our boat and tent camped. We never camped in the full hookup sites, even after we bought our first camper. Always hiked out to the lighthouse - I have photos of it before it was cleared out and was fenced off. We still try to go down there once a year just to go to the lighthouse, but haven’t camped there in years. We’ll have to camp there again, and of course, stop in at Woodies for a meal - can’t go to Northeast without a meal at Woodies!
