Dixie Caverns
About
Would you believe a dog was the first one in the hole at the top of the hill... followed by several inquisitive farm boys — that was in 1920. And in 1923, Dixie Caverns was open to the public. There have been many changes over the years in lighting and passageways, but the beauty of this cavern has entertained thousands from then `til now. Dixie Caverns is open for tours 363 days a year.
Campers... Come to our shaded campground, where you'll feel right at home.

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
The Good: nice staff; easy check in; easy access from the interstate; felt safe; no problems with electrical/water/sewer. The Bad: sites too close; gravel roads need attention; sites not level; constant highway noise. The Ugly: a few rigs appear not to moved in the past two decades with mold covering every surface. The Summary: didn’t use restrooms or bath house; would stay here again due to proximity of Roanoke (family).
Noise 24 hours
Close to hwy. All day long noise. You will see broken equipments on campground.
Very cool spot
Nice camp ground with bathroom and showers. Awesome antique store and cavern tours (must-do!) available for a discount when you camp. Spots are not very private but everyone is super nice.
