Consider Lake Fairfax Park, near Reston, VA. They have camping, but you do have to drive a little to get to the closest Metro Train. We stayed here several years ago. We were quite pleased. It's a very nice county run park, so there is a lot more there than just a campground. Click here. select the "camping" link.

Good to know.. it looks like a 2.5 mile hike and was thinking about adult scooters as a good way to get around the DC area as well.. They have large wheel, while like the one kids ride, are a bit larger and the wheel roll better over cracks, rough payment etc. They fold up and you can get a carry case.
Helps cut down on lots of walking and some what faster than (fairly brisk) walking speed.

Cherry Hill Park is the only one I know. Close to transportation right from the park. The cost might seem high but they have everything.

I stayed at Greenbelt NP recently. It's about a half hour (fairly brisk) walk to the College Park metro station. The park itself seemed safe enough to me, and the general neighborhood is not bad. No hookups, but the fees are very, very reasonable at $16 per night. When I was there over Thanksgiving week, the campground was nearly empty; I could not see another camper from my site for all but the first night.
Greenbelt is north or northeast of the city center, but is quite readily accessible from the beltway.

There is also a Park and Ride Lot at US29/Stone Rd. which is about 2 miles from Bull Run which connects to the Vienna Metro also with maybe other METRO buss service. The VRE station is in Manassas and IIRC terminates at Union Station Downtown. I would recommend sticking with the METRO vs VRE system for access to the various areas of D.C.
