Exceptional on all accounts
First of all, the site owner, Greg, and his family are exceptional at running the whole operation. They are good and honest people who work hard to share their slice of paradise. It was good and timely communication before and throughout the trip.
Greg was kind enough to offer me some help with my fishing rod, which got me back in the river for 3 days.
All camping reservation sites were spaced out so that other campers had good distance and privacy between sites.
I highly recommend the shade sail, it did me good service in the afternoon sun. Just in time to kick back and watch a few deer grazing the fields when taking a break from the river.
The quality of the firewood was excellent (kiln dried, which had a long burn time and put out a lot of heat. Better firewood than many sites I have been too in MD.
The nearby trail system is great for walking, running, biking. The river has a sandy shallow edge where you can wade in deeper across small stones. It was a a safe depth and comfortable temperature when I was there (but that may vary a bit upon recent rainfall). It was a beautiful place to fish. A wide river, lined with huge trees, and high rock cliffs with birds of prey catching the air currents (saw a bald eagle among others birds). I saw someone pull a bass out of the deeper part of the river, and saw some catfish too.
Sharpsburg is a nice little town, and Antietam is right around the corner.
I strongly recommend both the campground and site #1. I’d visit again.
