A hidden gem

A great RV park& Campground with plenty of access. Many pull through sites. Grass between each site. Fire pits and picnic tables at each site. Very nice owner, very friendly. The bath house was clean and decorated very nice. Looks like it has been freshly painted. A wonderful covered pavilion with lots of tables and gas grills. They even had season firewood available for a couple dollars. They even have a draw bridge to walk across the powell river to access the Big Stone Gap town's walking trail. It is truly a hidden gem.

Great Campground!

We just got back yesterday 12/28/2021. We stayed 5 nights through Christmas and it was absolutely wonderful. Owner are very nice and helpful. Facilities were pristine. We visited the local museums and walked the green belt. The green belt is next to the camp ground within walking distance. We will be back!

Nice, clean, campground

I don't live far from this place. It's a nice quick weekend getaway. The bathrooms are the cleanest I've ever seen, you're close to town, and have a beautiful river that runs right by the campground. There's a great walking trail that runs right by.

Whimsical Relaxation

Quaint park tucked away in the hills of VA in Big Stone Gap next to South Fork Powell River. Although our site is right on top of our neighbor, that is NOT the norm. Sites are spaced out with some full-timers, part-timers and vacationers. The owner allowed us to choose our site, and after having driven through a full day of traffic, we chose the easiest to pull into (pull thru sites and back in sites available). Picnic tables and fire rings are located at each site.

At the entrance, there is an amazing covered shelter with picnic tables, rocking chairs and grills. The park is well manicured with flowers and trees- and, make sure you search for the tree gnomes (carved into the trees). You might even find one hiding in the trees you chose to hang your hammock.

The greenway runs just over the river and takes you into Big Stone Gap where you will find local restaurants and shops, as well as every city’s fast food restaurants. We will definitely return for a longer visit!

Quiet, Beautiful, and tons of Amenities

Very beautiful place!! Our campsite was on the bank of the river with a fire pit and very level soft ground. About half a mile from a nice little gas station and a KFC s well, which is nice for ice trips or chicken runs. The owner is extremely friendly, kind, considerate, and I will most definitely come here again simply just because of him. They also have propane grills, patio thing, bathrooms, showers, water hose, everything I needed at least. Highly recommended place on my part!

Gorgeous, creek side camping

We needed a spot to stay at the last minute and called the owner. We had two Jeeps with roof top tents, and while this is an RV Park, he has a few seasonal sites near the creek open. If the water is high, the sites aren’t available. What a beautiful place! We wished we could stay longer! Great owners—so hospitable! Free firewood and even had metal rings for a fire. Across the bridge is a paved walking trail that follows the creek. Also the town is the home of writer Adriana Trigiani, bestselling author of Big Stone Gap!
