Our CG of choice for DC is Lake Fairfax (Fairfax County Park), Reston. About half the price & close to the Metro. It is in a big park. Not next to any major 24 hour highways. Well spaced sites with power & water. Plenty of walking trails, if you don't get enough doing the downtown sights.
It is ten miles from any Metro station, though, per the web site, so not really close. Also no public transportation from the campground to the Metro.
Their web site information is outdated. It's about two miles to the Wiehel-Reston East station on the silver line from the campground (by foot or bike, a little longer by car). I assume the web site information comes from before that station was opened.
