The C&O Canal is a nearly 185-mile waterway that hosts many historic sites, museums and attractions. Tourists and locals alike love the park. The park is situated between mile markers 54-55, which makes it an easy drive from downtown Frederick.
It is also an excellent basecamp to explore other areas. You can rent bicycles, go tubing, or take a scenic cruise boat ride. Harpers Ferry's historic town is worth a visit. It is well-known for its unique history as well as many other attractions. There are many national parks in the vicinity for those who wish to explore the region by foot. Monocacy, Harpers Ferry and Antietam are just some of the options. You can also reach the park from several state parks.
It also features a swimming pool, a play area, and four cabins. But these are not for everyone. You'll find plenty to do in the area including shopping, sightseeing, and dining. Monocacy Battlefield and Brunswick Heritage Museum among others are some of the many parks and attractions found in the area. Maryland and DC beltways are within an hour. The park offers several camping and RV sites as well as cabins to rent. The park is pet friendly and welcomes leashed pets.
The Brunswick Family Campground offers adventure camping for both families and outdoor enthusiasts. It is situated right on the C&O Canal. From here, you can take a scenic cruise on the waterway or make use of the towpath. Harpers Ferry is a short drive away. This town has many museums and art galleries.

While there are many similar parks, none of these offer the unique experience and camping along C&O Canal. A boat ramp is one of the unique features at Brunswick family campground. The campsite also has a camp store, which is a good thing because you'll need to scrounge around for souvenirs and other essentials.
