Camping near University Center, Virginia
University Center is a census-designated place in eastern Loudoun County, Virginia, sitting on the north side of Route 7 about seven miles from Leesburg and thirty miles from Washington, D.C. The community is bordered by the Potomac River to the north and Broad Run to the east, placing it within an hour of national parks, Civil War battlefields, and the C&O Canal towpath.
RV travelers use University Center as a base for exploring the Potomac corridor without staying inside the D.C. beltway. Loudoun County wineries, equestrian country, and Dulles International Airport are all within a short drive, and campgrounds cluster to the west toward Haymarket and Gainesville and to the north across the river in Maryland and West Virginia.
Close options include Greenville Farm Family Campground, Inc. and Hillwood Camping Park on the Virginia side, Brunswick Family Campground and Evergreen Point Village in Maryland, and Harpers Ferry / Civil War Battlefields KOA Holiday just over the West Virginia line.
Things to do near University Center
History and river recreation dominate the area. Harpers Ferry National Historical Park sits at the confluence of the Shenandoah and Potomac Rivers and pairs restored 19th-century streets with Appalachian Trail access, tubing, rafting, and Civil War sites. The C&O Canal towpath runs along the Maryland bank of the Potomac and is a flat, family-friendly ride for bikes.
Closer to camp, Harpers Ferry / Civil War Battlefields KOA Holiday offers typical KOA family amenities, and Brunswick Family Campground puts riders directly onto the towpath at mile marker 54.5, with kayak, canoe, and bike rentals available through River & Trail Outfitters, which operates the campground.
Day trips reach Antietam National Battlefield, Loudoun County wineries, and Algonkian Regional Park on the Potomac.

Great Class B experience. This was our first Class B with a wet bath. It was nicely outfitted with cookware, towels, linens, pillows, and outdoor chairs, table, and large mat. The screen in the side door allowed us to open the sliding door while keeping the bugs out. Bob was supper responsive with great communications before and during the rental. We had a couple minor issues that he helped us work out quickly.
