My family LOVES this campground!

Really love this Campground! The owners are a young family, with a bunch of kids! They live across the road to handle any issues. The lodge/office is open til 8. Level packed gravel sites. We have a 40’ class A. Plenty of pull thru sites. Back in sites are great too. Lots of trees. Good shade. Well kept grounds. 2 catch and release ponds. Playground. Fire pit. AT&amp;T wireless service. Every weekend has an event. Bluegrass to crafts. Right outside of Jacksonville, Ashland, Virginia, and close enough to Springfield. We were there last weekend and will be there again at the end of the month. Happy Camping!

Great family campground 

Catch and release fishing, small beach area with volleyball.  Sites are small but clean.  Bath house is clean and well maintained.  Live music on the weekend.  Definitely a heavy-drinking crowd.  Camp store.  It's in the middle of nowhere but only about 20 minutes to the nearest small town.  No Verizon wireless service here or anywhere for about a 45 mile radius.  

Nice place! 

We camp out there every other weekend and took our friends out camping with us this weekend. The owners are really great people and genuinely care about the customers and the campgrounds 

Awesome campground 

My best friends family stays out there and has nothing but great things to say about the place. I happen to agree with them. 
If you need a place to get away from city life but don't want to travel far away from town, you can't beat this place.
