Best camping near Washington DC and Montreal

[davidkerryedwards]

I checked out the Cherry site and Pohick Bay. Since we'll have our
canoes along, Pohick Bay seems more appealing since we can do some
paddling. Thanks for the hints on the mall parking, we should have a
toad along.
What's the difference between the State Park and National Seashore.
On the web it looked like the National Seashore had camping pads very
close to the ocean.
