The Best Camping Near Whitetop, Virginia

Stayed here for first time on a ridge site.  Owners have breathed a lot of new life into this site.  It is steps away from Creeper trail in Whitetop

Secluded setting with modern amenities

My family and I stayed here and we were really impressed with this place! The showers and bathrooms were clean and very well done. It was quite. The views were spectacular and the owners were so nice. We’ll be back soon!

Perfect Camp

Had a wonderfully relaxing time at this campground. The amenities were new, the owners were friendly, the grounds smelled like pine trees, and the experience of being away from the crowd up on the ridge was just what we were looking for. Would definitely recommend. 

Beautiful campground in the mountains

Good campground; the bathrooms were the best I have ever seen, EVER at a campground. Rain shower heads, incredible. Clean!!! ...access to Creeper trail right around the corner. site fee was high for electric but you are paying for convenience. They had pizza night while we were there (did not participate) and they have a place to get coffee, specialty coffee etc. Nice, mowed spot (a lot of poison ivy by site, so be careful).

Convenient to White top

My husband and I stayed from the 4th of July to the 7th. The site was nice and level with a beautiful view. It’s a quiet, sleepy campground just perfect for relaxing by a fire. Be aware that only a few sites have septic. Pay attention to the site description. There is no cell phone reception anywhere around until you get to Damascus about 30 minutes away. The office/cafe does has WiFi. It is not park-wide though so plan ahead by downloading your maps and music, etc. The campground is owned and run by a couple who take great care to make sure your stay is pleasant. They have a cafe and small store in the office building. We had breakfast one morning - bacon, egg and cheese biscuit and a bacon, egg and cheese sandwich - made on homemade bread and biscuits. So good! I also got a latte and it was amazing. We stopped in for pizza night and got a homemade pesto pizza. Don’t miss that one! Our camper has a bathroom but the camp bathrooms were incredible. Super clean and well-maintained. If you need diesel, nearly every gas station is gas-only. There is a nice gas station and cafe close by in Whitetop Station that carries diesel and has really good food. We stopped there on our way out and the biscuits and gravy were wonderful. The Virginia Creeper trail head is right around the corner from the entrance to the campground.
