Campgrounds near Fair Lakes, Virginia
Fair Lakes sits in Fairfax County in Northern Virginia, roughly 25 miles west of Washington, DC, and within an hour's drive of a mix of private RV parks, National Park Service campgrounds, and Maryland state park sites across the Potomac.
The closest option for RV travelers is Greenville Farm Family Campground in Haymarket, a private working farm with a large mix of pull-through and back-in sites. Hillwood Camping Park offers another private, family-run choice in the same corridor west of Fair Lakes. To the south, Prince William Forest Park anchors the region with two very different options: the concessionaire-run Prince William Forest RV Campground, a full-hookup campground with pull-through sites, a pool, and a laundry facility, and Oak Ridge Campground, a wooded National Park Service campground with three loops and roughly 100 sites.
Across the Potomac in Charles County, Maryland, Smallwood State Park adds a quieter riverfront option on Mattawoman Creek, giving RV travelers a range of hookup levels and settings within a short drive of Fair Lakes.

Great adventure for a novice. A little mixup on purpose of trip my not understanding that we were “boondogging” and not informing Owner so plumbing changes could be made to water supply so water would be available on our trip to Yale University and onward to Niagara Falls ON. Overall RV performed as expected. My two granddaughters my goddaughter the cat and the dog enjoyed our 1st RV venture. Looking forward to our next adventure and college evaluation searches. Owner was very responsive and helpful along the way. I’d like to say thanks for our first RV lesson.
