Evitts Creek Campsite

Decent enough. Had to stop here to put up my tent because of a storm. Lots of flying insects.

I stayed at Evitts Creek in the fall of 2024 as part of a long distance bike trip. The site is nice, but like many on the C&O trail it can be loud with train traffic. While the water is non-potable, the water pump worked and had no obviously large particles. It was very possible to convert the water to potable form using a pump. Like many of the water sources there is a large amount of minerals in the water, which became apparent when I cleaned my pump filter. Plenty of places for tents and some room for hammocks. The site is one of the medium sized ones that could hold a number of campers.

Nice campground but very noisy with the train station right next to it. Very pretty though and there is a nice picnic table. The mosquitos here were terrible though, but the well water (needs to be filtered) works, although it has lots of iron in it (yellow).

It was a nice spot there is nice place to tent or just put a hammock out the train is heard throughout these places but the beauty of it make that noise go away

Great campsite along the c&o. Train noise can be a problem so bring ear plugs for sleeping.
