Check-in was great, the ladies working were extremely friendly and helpful. All of the staff were nice. The facilities (bathroom, showers, dish sink) were surprisingly clean! I did have a loud group next to me, and some of the RVs were loud with bright set-ups so I wouldn’t stay here if I wanted a peaceful trip. To literally just camp it was great.

Employees were great, site was nice, but large stones were difficult to walk on in soft soled shoes

We stayed at the KOA in Washington over Christmas this year, and wow what service! We stayed in a tent, and the staff and fellow campers were so helpful. This location is the perfect base for touring the capital. Just a quick 40 minute drive right into the heart of DC. The campground is immaculate. Very clean and well maintained. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

another great KOA Campground. Very clean and pretty. You wouldn’t think you were near DC it was quiet and I was greeted by another camper with her son who had a roaring fire when I got there late at night. I got to sit by the fire already stoked and, I had a very pleasant stay.

My daughter and I were there for the No Kings protest in Washington DC. Your campground was just far enough out to allow us to escape the crowd. We had a very nice site. The Facilities were kept clean and the store was well stocked. Thank you!

Loved my stay, but the tent pad was covered in rocks from the parking area and was really hard to sleep on. It just needed to be raked out I think. Otherwise, everything was good.

So much to do for the kids. Nice big no hookup spots. Clean bathrooms! Toiletries in bathroom like soap shampoo conditioner. 5 min from dunkin donuts

Staff very friendly and actually still staffed a little later than most. Everything was clean and well maintained. A lot of fun little items for kids. Lay out is nice and even the gravel sections were smooth. Campsites were nice and flat and well kept for tents. It was quiet for being right in the heart of so much.

Good Stay we had a tent campsite used the showers once. Main thing here is try not to raise the rates on the tent camp site, Currently $75 per night really hope it does not go up from here any time soon.

Kinda pricy for a camp site. Much smaller than the Harpers Ferry location. Staff was very friendly place was clean.

Great experience, always friendly, flexible when our plans change, we always look forward to our stays at Capitol KOA - in fact, we'll be back in just a few days!

The staff and activities were fantastic, but the location and actual sites leave a lot to be desired.

The store was well stocked and the bathrooms were very clean. The staff were very friendly and helpful. My only sadness was there was no WIFI because of a lightning strike.

It was great! We wish there were a few events for the kids. Like crafts or something! But that’s just us being pushy! We love it

Great location! Everyone who works here is super nice. We arrived around 9pm after the office was closed and was nervous we wouldn't be able to set up. We were pleasantly surprised to find the wood already at our camp site and our checkin packet hanging on the board. It was a lovely stay.

Nice, well organized little camp with everything my kids loved to do. People working there were very helpful and friendly. I would def stay there again!

I enjoyed it.

The KOA had lots for kids to do and reasonably price laundry. Although it is near roads, the noise level was low. No nearby trains that we heard, which is a positive for tent camping. Only negative was that the power to our refrigerator cooler was off and on. It is brand new and worked fine on the 16 hour drive there. At the site the power was off and on?? Had to throw away our food for safety.

Everyone was so friendly and helpful. A beautiful and clean environment. Best KOA I've seen! Lots of wonderful shade and privacy. I loved my stay, I hope to do it again!

We had a good stay at the DC/Capitol KOA - convenient location from which to visit DC (via the Greenbelt Metro line), Baltimore, and Annapolis. Nice showers and clean bathrooms.

Campsite nice, shady, location to Crownsville for music festival fantastic, front desk staff very nice, 3 bundles of wood for $20 great. However, the equipment for activities could use a huge update. Pool table outside terrible shape, ping pong table poor shape, basketball peeling apart, no grip, overall, equipment needs more care and replaced. Also, the bikes should be included and not rental

Too expensive in consideration to the services provided.

As a solo camper, safety is a huge factor to me. I felt very safe at this KOA and slept peacefully. Thank you for being accommodating and welcoming during my stay!

Nice facilities. Easy pick up of materials for late check-in. Our van needed a jump start and the staff helped us immediately. Nice experience.

I emailed to let the KOA know we would be arriving late and there wasn’t a response. When we got there, our packet wasn’t ready when checking in late. Our campsite had piled up leaves, over accumulating leaves, which I get we are in an outdoor area but clearing some leaves would’ve been nice. The bathrooms were dirty with trash on the floors.

It was nice that the staff suggested a site that would be less muddy than I would otherwise select. It was annyoying that my site had no power the second night of booking. Not a big deal for me, as I was car camping, but if I had a tent, and take it down and put it back up at a nearby site with electric in the dark, that would suck(freezing tempatures). Hooks over men's sinks mounted upside down.

Good grounds, bad reservation. We had a good stay despite the reserved site selection. The assigned camp site was completely off from what we requested in reservation writing, email, and phone calls... -a tent site with level/flat parking- (the site parking was a short steep slope! with many empty sites around that would work) so we finally found an appropriate site on our own..that worked well.

Although we arrived at 3am and checked out at 945am, I would say we had a nice sleep, a little overpriced for 6hrs @ $70 but we would go again. One of the nicer KOAs we've been to.

The stay was fantastic with one exception: on Sunday afternoon I received the last call for firewood text, and it stated the store would be open until 8pm. In reality, it was open until 6pm, so when we showed up at 7 expecting to have an hour left, we were out of luck. We definitely would have come earlier, if not for the text saying it would be open until 8pm.

This is my 6th time staying. My only complaint is the camp store hours and the availability of the bounce pillow. For the amount that is charged and having to only use your firewood, the store should open earlier and stay open later. Also, the bounce pillow was closed too early and not open late enough. The Halloween activities have shrunk over the years and the kids should be able to bounce more.

Campground was nice! Staff was very friendly and helpful. Facilities were clean. I would definitely come back and stay at this campground.�

Staff is awesome. Judy was great and patient. The kids had a great time. Only thing that could have been better was the weather.

This was just an overnight stay, providing a midpoint break on a drive from North Carolina back to Massachusetts. I ended up arriving after the office was closed, and appreciated the staff contacting me en route about the after-hours check-in procedure. As with my earlier visit on the way down to NC I found the bathrooms and showers to be clean and well-maintained. Very pleasant stay!

So many fun activities and really nice folks. Bathrooms were clean, water was hot, stoke was high.

We enjoyed our stay. We had a tent site and pretty much was just there to sleep due to staying busy in DC, My daughter did enjoy some of the activities, the balloon making clown and the petting zoo. Bathrooms and laundry area were very clean…will definitely be back.

Nice campground with a huge pool, perfect for a cool down after touring DC all day. Location is close to the Marc Penn train station, Odenton. Nice dog run area and woods walking trail. Staff were extra nice too:)

I don't normally leave reviews. What I can say about KOA is the staff is wonderful, and the grounds are well kept. My only complaint as the size of the site that we were given. We have a 32 foot motorhome, and no matter where I put the motorhome on the Pull through site, there was not enough room to park my car behind the motorhome. It was a good thing that the office was right across from me. I could park my Jeep there overnight. My only other complaint, due to the width of the site, my neighbor's sewage hookup was extremely close to the corner of the picnic table (see photo). If you were looking for a site with more room, I suggest you go down the hill. Again, Great people, clean park, nice amenities for the kids.

To appreciate this KOA drive the Washington Beltway in Friday rush hour traffic in a Class A motorhome pulling a car and unfamiliar with the territory. Then from the chaos, noise and fear of a painful and imminent death there arises an oasis of beauty, peace and safety, which is the wonderful Washington DC/Capitol KOA Holiday. The staff is like your family welcoming you home doing all they can to show your appreciation for coming. Truely - in the end, it's people that make the difference! Thanks for a good stay. I hope you are tr re are just as well when you come to Texas. Road Ranger - AUSTIN TX
