Virginia Grove Rec Area

Virginia Grove Recreation Area operates this small county campground with electric hookups for RVs and campers. The Louisa County Conservation Board maintains the forested grounds, which include a playground and vault toilets. A walking trail connects campers to a nearby lake where ducks gather.

Sites accommodate big rigs and cost $17 per night, with reservations required through the online system only. The campground stays open year-round and allows pets and campfires. Campers needing a dump station should plan accordingly, as one reviewer noted its absence. For those wanting additional amenities, Papa's Paradise Campground offers more services northeast of the area.

Small and quaint

This is a small campground with electric camper spots. I didn't see any dump station. It features a playground and has vault toilets. There is a walking trail that leads to a lake with ducks. Online only reservations.
