Title
A name given to the resource
Kamp Washington
Description
An account of the resource
The Kamp Washington tourist court was located at the intersection of Little River Turnpike and Lee Highway on the edge of the Town of Fairfax.
The property was purchased by Katherine Curry on November 1, 1928. The following year, she went into partnership with Warren Stoner and the couple were soon married.
Vincent Sutphin described the property in his recent book entitled Nothing Remains the Same:
“The camp consisted of some twelve to fifteen one-room frame cabins. Each cabin had a bed, several chairs, a King wood heater stove, and was lighted with a single electric bulb in the center of the room. Toilet facilities with showers, as well as additional cabins, were located in the center of the camp along a graveled driveway. The owner’s Cape Cod frame home was also located along this semi-circle driveway with entrances along Route 236. The owner, Mr. Stoner also ran a small lunchroom with a counter and booths.”
In 1941, the Stoners sold Kamp Washington to Robert Conkle and Douglas Vincent of Falls Church.
Albert Sherwood purchased the tourist court in 1948 and began to redevelop it, slowly tearing down the cabins and replacing them with small brick houses which he rented out. Many were built using leftover construction materials from previous jobs. The property is currently the site of the Office Depot and Washington Sports Club building and parking lots.
