Sharpsburg, MD · 14 sites · Tents, RVs
Update for late May-June: The river level has dropped nicely, and it is officially swimming season!!! Also, the first fireflies have been spotted and within a week or two their numbers at camp in the evenings will be Biblical.
A few details about our sites in the general camping area (sites 1-11): Sites 1, 3, 8,9,10&11 have 13x20 shade sails, 2,4,5,6&7 have 10x13 shade sails that are also weatherproof. For larger groups, I recommend any of the sites with the larger shade sails as they have a bit more space than the others.
Experience the beauty of this historic property featuring a mix of woodland, grassy hilltops, and clover filled bottomlands. Enjoy the nearly direct access to the CO Canal Historic Park and the kid friendly, serene stretch of the Potomac River we border. Choose from 11 similar sites available for your camping pleasure in our clover filled bottomland as well as our Hilltop sites for maximum privacy, exclusivity and star gazing potential. The surrounding old growth forest makes for a great hiking and biking as well as a very accessible and kid friendly cave to explore. All sites now have either 10x13 or 13x20 shade sails available to keep the afternoon sun at bay: recommended.
We have two kayaks on site free of charge. We have some life vests, but if you have your own, bring those along. The river's main beach located between sites 7 and 8, is shaded/filtered sun all day long while our smaller beach at site 1 is sunny most of the day and affords some of the nicest river lounging via a rock ledge that spans
4wd or All Wheel Drive are recommended. If it's been relatively dry, single wheel cars are 100% fine. We have ways to mitigate most weather events.
Please pre-order firewood and/or shade sails via a message to me when booking your stay and save the 18% "booking fee" or add them via the "extras" section for your site so I can have it waiting for you. $40 buys you a long night's ++ burn worth of well-seasoned hardwood. Cash venmo paypal zelle all accepted upon arrival. If ordering firewood using the "extra" feature, 1 load is $20.00 which is a 1/2 nights supply. Order 2 if you want a full night/morning supply. I will credit unused wood with a nominal restocking fee.

So we arrived after a lot of rain so Greg had us stay on the hill. We had AWD and I think we could have made it but it was best for us to move, our ol’ suv (Benyta) had drove from southwest Michigan and she didn’t like the 95° weather with the slight elevation of the mountains. So my review would be more for hilltop than site 5! I would say the sunshade is ABSOLUTELY WORTH every penny! I originally didn’t request one so when we got switched site, it had the shade and boy did that make a ginormous difference. Provided shade as well as quite a bit drier in the morning from all that dew. We didn’t use as much of the wood than we thought and the amount compared to a lot of other places we have been or roadside stand, you get a decent amount of wood for the price! Greg and his daughter Elise checked on us everyday briefly to make sure we were good and even brought us a 5 gallon tank of water because there is no potable water at the land. We were in the area for wedding so we didn’t do as much exploring at the site but definitely would love to come back and check out the caves and river! Gorgeous views. Some friendly cats but be ware they have their claws and if you have little ones, they may scratch if you don’t leave them be. We have cats at home so this was not anything surprising but they are friendly and for the most part sweeties. Port a potties were clean. Very, very private and a great place to let loose and have a good time or take in the views and relax.

My friends and I had an amazing time at this campsite. The first thing we noticed was how clean the sites and port-a-potties were. Greg the owner was very accommodating and welcoming. His daughter also did a great job at greeting us and she was very cool😎 throughout the days the cats would visit us and we were given more firewood after it rained. When we were out swimming, I put a tarp on top of the fire wood incase it rained and when I got back I saw they had put bricks to weigh it down for us. They also noticed our short smore sticks and left us some better ones. We will definitely be coming back, thank you Greg and El !!

This is such a lovely piece of land. I tent camped and had the whole camping area to myself except for one night, and the other person was respectful and quiet. I enjoyed finding the beautiful waterfall, and watching the full moon rise over the horizon while I sat by my campfire. Close to plenty of hiking in Monongahela NF and Watoga State Park. There is very limited cell/internet service that I found I could access (one bar/Verizon) from the bulletin board on the driveway to the flat rock by the pond. Holly was communicative via the Hipcamp app although we never met. Others on the property were friendly but kept their distance. I really wanted to see the main Gesunsheit building since it was featured in a lot of the pics through the listing, but when I arrived I was told that’s for retreats only. It was a little confusing, I wasn’t sure where I was allowed to explore and where was off limits, so I mostly kept to myself. Again, this is a beautiful place and I will definitely camp here again. I loved bird watching and seeing the dense fog roll off in the morning while I sipped coffee. Matilda the dog was my favorite part! What a sweetie.

We absolutely loved our stay here. Our site-RV10 was on the edge of the campground which offered a good amount of privacy and space. We had easy access to the water front and could hear the tranquil rapids from our spot. The grounds were well kept and we really appreciated the cleanliness of the outhouses and the firewood and coffee set-up. This place was welcoming and super laid-back. Hope to return again! -Darla & Zach

My wife & I went tent camping on Greg's property & had a great time. The first night we had loud party neighbors but Greg was extremely flexible, both asking them to quiet and offering to have us change sites. He also has quiet time beginning at 10:30 which we did not know, that was also nice. The rest of our stay was pleasantly uneventful. There was a great hike nearby that allowed us to get moving and spend more time in nature. Would reccommend!

My friends and I camped on Greg’s property, and we had a blast! The site was right to the C&O trail which provided for beautiful morning walks. Not only so, Greg was an incredible and attentive host—he swung by every day to make sure we had everything we needed, and even set up a volleyball net for us. The best part of our weekend were the camp cats that roamed around, one of them even brought us a gift!

I camped here in my truck, great experience. Wasn’t there for too long, and the water was high so didn’t get to swim, but want to come back to do so. My truck is a 5 speed RWD with decent clearance, and I didn’t have any issues with the roads at the site. Greg was very helpful, and informative while still giving me a lot of privacy. Felt safe camping here as a woman, my dog really loved it too. Will be coming back!
