    If you are in Stafford county it's always a good idea to stop by Smith Lake. All the water falling down from the sky makes Smith Lake a wet location; most of the rain falls through August, and January on the other hand is the driest. Why not camp at Turkey Run Ridge Campground while you're here at Smith Lake, and a quick journey to Beaverdam Run is undeniably a fine idea. After a long day outdoors Staybridge Suites STAFFORD is a fine place to spend a night or  
   two, and you're sure to encounter some great folks from Washington-Arlington-Alexandria here.
This lake is so wonderful. Going for a hike along the Turkey Run Ridge Trail will let you absorb the natural beauty of this region, and Aquia Creek Dam has splendid water scenery. Have a pleasant hiking adventure along the South Valley Trail, and whitewater paddling is not for everybody but if it's for you then, we recommend Aquia Creek.
A nice spot to camp
 
               here at Smith Lake is Aquia Pines Campground, naturally you could also stop by Camp Three Lake while you're here; it's not far at all. This lake is so wonderful.
