I've really enjoyed each visit I have had at Little Bennett…read more If you need some fresh air and want to be in a peaceful environment but do not want to drive too far out of the city this is a great place to go. It is located pretty close off the highway which is convenient when coming here. They have nice camping grounds and plenty of hiking trails. If you expect to get a mountain peak picture or to see a waterfall this is not your place, it is just standard woods here. The trails are maintained well, you will not have to walk through any areas that have been overgrown with bush. The trails are pretty easy since it is not climbing a mountain. Highly recommend coming here if you live in the area.

I would actually have given this 5 stars, but …read more.. OK, the good? Beautiful grounds, spacious campsites, immaculate upkeep. Fun, free stuff for kids like the giant jump pillow and pedal kart track, plus some games (although one never happened, more later) and crafts. Lovely - and I do mean LOVELY - staff members. Not so good? The game that never happened - they have a thing called Gaga Ball, and we were told it would take place "around 3" on Saturday. We went and waited close to 45 minutes and the staff member never showed up. Luckily, DGD was happy to bounce endlessly on the Giant Pillow, but the short-staffed situation gives rise to disappointment. Secondly, the trails map!!! OMG what a disaster. We had the Montgomery County Regional Parks version, and the Little Bennett version, and they did not agree. Moreover, there are additional (?) trails that aren't shown, so it's really, REALLY easy to get mixed up. I'm a very seasoned hiker and still had trouble navigating to where we wanted to be. Also, we would never let my precious grandchildren ride their bikes here. Even on our loop, it wasn't especially safe, and on the main road? Forget it! Even if people actually drove the speed limit (yeah, right), the roads are narrow with not great visibility. Hence the one star deduction. I must say again, the campsites are spacious - I absolutely love that! But here are some tips, from just driving around to see everything: Loop B has no bathhouse/restroom facility. Really, those folks had to hike to Loop C bathhouse (where we were). The bathhouse on Loop A is located kind of close to the main road, so if you choose a site farther along the loop, you'll be hiking to go potty! Loop C was very nice, although weirdly the noise of the highway seemed especially loud at night. All in all, this is a very nice, very well maintained campground. The main reason we won't visit again is that the kiddos really need more to do, like fly kites, ride bikes, splash in water, etc., and this is not the place for those activities.

The river was relaxing, the views were gorgeous, and the whole day just felt easy and fun. A huge shoutout to Spider, our guide, who truly went above and beyond. Not only did he keep the energy high with great vibes and a friendly attitude, but he also made sure everyone was safe and accounted for throughout the float. We noticed him picking up trash along the way. So awesome to see someone taking care of the river and setting a great example. He really cared about both the people and the environment. If you're thinking about doing a tubing trip in Harpers Ferry, this is the place to go--and if you're lucky enough to get Spider as your guide, you're in for a great time!

If you wanted an informal family reunion or block party, the location is great. There is a giant fireplace inside the main building and a fire pit outside.

The lodge/cabin is cozy and adorable. There is a fireplace in the center of the main room. The outside deck was spruced up with white Christmas lights and it looked really nice. The deck is a perfect place for pictures and over looks a field. The backyard perfectly fits a white tent with plenty of room for people to move about the grounds. Parking is limited in front of the lodge and there is construction currently on the road in front which turns to road to a one lane road. I would love to come to more events here, rustic chic!

It's still less structured than I anticipated but still loved that the coaches helped my little build confidence to try new things and didn't push them to try!

My daughter loves the classes and does not want me to cancel ever. She began coming her since Feb on her 9th birthday and was enrolled into beginner blooms. After 6 months they recommended her go into intermediate blooms. I love that. They evaluate the kids to see when they are ready to go to the next step and give you the option to switch classes when available. The goal is for them to get better so seeing this and what she can do validates that. I love the show cases they have for the parents. And on an everyday basis there is seating for parents when you are waiting for the class to be finished. If you have to makeup a class it's super easy! I didn't do it right the first time and Thaina assisted me virtually to make my experience pleasant . Great customer service here. I cannot wait to continue to see my child development here. Thank you all
