The best camping near Westmoreland State Park guide

Overview

About

Spend a few days at this Potomac River retreat and you may want to stay forever. Horsehead Cliffs provide visitors with panoramic views above the river. Fish on the pier underneath an elegant Victorian gazebo. Hunt for fossilized shark teeth along the 1.5 miles of shoreline.

Battle with water birds for the best fish. The Potomac and Rock Spring Pond have plenty of fish for everyone. Find catfish, bream, bass, and crappie in the pond. The park's boathouse can help with bait, supplies, and boat rental for the day.

Expect majestic birds, including bald eagles, ospreys, kingfishers, herons, terns, and gulls, to fish for their dinner, too. Have binoculars handy to see the birds up close.

Seven trails cover 6 miles of the park. The beach trail has stunning views of the Potomac. Travel back in time 200 years with trips to Mount Vernon or Washington DC, with your campsite as a home base.

Around 74 standard and 41 electric campsites await. More than 30 cabins dot the landscape.

Notable campgrounds

  • Campground A: Offers electric and water hookups, perfect for RVs and close to bathhouse facilities.
  • Campground B: Provides a more rustic camping experience with fire ring grills and proximity to fishing spots.
  • Campground C: Ideal for group camping, featuring large sites with tent pads and communal fire-rings.

Tips for snagging a campsite

  • Book early, as reservations can be made up to 11 months in advance for popular spots.
  • Consider off-peak times for better availability and a quieter experience.
  • Keep an eye on cancellations to snag a last-minute reservation.
  • Explore nearby camping options if your preferred campground is full.

When to go

The best time to visit Westmoreland State Park is from spring to fall when the weather is mild and all facilities are open. Summer offers the full array of programs and water activities. Winter visits can be serene but expect limited services and brisk weather.

Know before you go

  • Check the weather and park advisories before your trip for any closures or warnings.
  • Remember, there's limited cell phone service; plan accordingly for communication needs.
  • Accessibility is a priority; inquire about specific needs or accommodations.
  • Bring your essentials, as cabins do not provide linens or towels.
  • Adhere to park rules, including pet policies and firewood regulations to protect the ecosystem.
