Maryland
The woods here hug Seneca Creek, which winds a twisty course to the Potomac. Miles of hiking and biking trails await, as well as boating opportunities in Seneca Creek, though if you're a horror-film buff, you may already be familiar with these woods – this is where 1999's The Blair Witch Project was filmed.
Maryland residents get discounted entry to the park.
