The Best Camping Near Shenandoah, Virginia

Close to Harrisonburg with all the great breweries! Eat at Golden Pony. The bathhouse was clean and blissfully warm. There’s great hiking nearby. Would definitely return.

Backs up to a great hike 

Don't stay there if you have a large group of any more then 10 campers. We called ahead and asked if they had a group site and they said they did. Sites are hard to read where the boundaries are. Also quiet hour means bed time there. No quietly sitting around the fire chilling. 

It ok

Very nice valley location. Site 71 best for privacy. Pool, playground,  frisbee golf &amp; pizza delivered to your site!

Quiet valley retreat

My family visited this campground once and it was a great time. The most interesting part about it is that there are bunnies running around everywhere. There is also a river to play in, tube down, or fish in. The campground even has a small waterfall right on the river.

The place is also not that far from some great hiking in the area, such as Crab Tree Falls.

There are some campsites right on the river, which are beautiful.

The workers were very friendly.

Interesting place 

Hot clean showers, all the tent sites platforms were covered with mushrooms and map is labeled completely wrong. 3 stars for the high quality amenities available but needs site maintenance.

For glamping not camping

This campground has incredibly clean bathroom and shower facilities along with an immaculate site. Each tent site is fairly large and has a flat mulch covered spot for a large tent with a picnic table and fire pit next to it. The site is about 8 minutes off the highway and makes a great stopping point. Would definitely stay here again. 

Very Clean Campsite convenient to I 80

We really enjoyed camping here. Took a great hike to Fridley’s Gap and went swimming in the water hole. The tent site was big and clean and the staff was super friendly. They have chickens and ducks roaming around and Our dog got to chase a chicken off the site. She loved that! Will definitely so back! 

Great Time! 

This Koa was fantastic. Spent my Labor Day weekend here and loved it. The staff handled the crowd great and they had loads of activities for kids. Everything was very clean and kept up really nice. The tent sites were pretty close together but we had great neighbors. 

Family Friendly

The staff were top notch with plenty of amenities to offer. Bathrooms were clean and well stocked. Try their fried pies. 

Thanks so much for a great 2 night stay. 

Great stay with great facilities

Great place to camp with a built in fire pit and picnic table. The camp staff were extremely friendly and helpful, and the pizza they sell is to die for

Beautifully kept and wonderful service

Biggest KOA I’ve been to. 
24 hr laundry, big camp store, office stays open later than other KOA’s. 
Convenient to the highway and easy to get to. Sites are well spaced. Hookups were well positioned. Walking trail starts at the campground. WiFi worked pretty well. Overall a great KOA. 

Quintessential KOA 

Very clean &amp; lots of amenities.   They are adding 80 more campsites for covid campers.   Pool is closed rn (March 2021). Playground, basketball court, fire sites, small store, babbling creek, catch &amp; release pond, trails.   A little scary driving into- winding roads &amp; tight turns.   They have a easily accessible (for huge RVs) gas station right off the highway before turning in!    

Took off a star bc this wasn't a "stay a while" campground. Most people came one night. We have a 38" camper and the site they gave us had such a steep grade it took us a LONG time to get level. We went and asked if we could have a new site as we checked in when they allowed &amp; it was EMPTY. we paid for 5 days in advance and they "couldn't give us a new site".   It seemed silly to me bc there were plenty of back in sites that we could have fit in.... and all rhe people who paid for 1 night could have been switched over?    Although that customer service experience wasn't delightful, the staff was still helpful &amp; friendly. 



Clean & friendly

 great place for the kids, as Frisbee golf.love the mountain atmosphere and wilderness atmosphere.very friendly staff clean restrooms 

Shenandoah Valley campground koa Harrisonburg

Quiet, well maintained, clean, and the friendliest owners ever! Delaine was so helpful with picking out or site and Tim helped us park. Firewood was delivered to our site for us before we got there since we were checking in so late. Dog amenities are wonderful! 

Perfect

This site is a bit off the road so no road noise. Sites are plenty although a little close together so hearing the neighbors alarm go off wasn't too pleasant. The store is well stocked and well staffed and will deliver ice, firewood or pizza to your site. 
Bathrooms and shower area large and clean. This is okay for an overnighter but with the number of RVs in close proximity I'd pass for a lengthy stay.

Nice, Clean and Well Staffed

This campground has an awesome location between Harrisonburg and Luray/Shenandoah. It has great amenities like a pool and playground, a camp store and lots of friendly and helpful employees. I love that they will pick up your trash and deliver firewood. We stayed in a non-electric grass tent site in loop D. The sites are great! Nice and flat and shady. They come with a huge fire pit and a picnic table. There is only one bath house in the campground that has plenty of bathrooms and showers. A very nice stay!

Great location KOA

Campground was literally at base of mountains and was so quiet and peaceful. Bathrooms offered hot showers and there were plenty of activities for our kids. 

Quiet mountain location 

Really impressed. I’m used to KOAs being very tight. Not so much here, it’s just right. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay here again!

This is a KOA?!?!

Nice tightly packed campground including tent camping.  We sent up camp D22.  Very tight spacing. Noisy neighbors with no consideration for other campers.  No water/electricity.  Over $100 for 2 nights. Nice staff. Bathrooms ok and clean.  Camp store nice with decent pizza delivery possible.  We mountain biked at Bryce ski resort 40 minutes away.  

Typical KOA  Primitive camping expensive 

We stayed 3 days in the area for tents that had electricity. It was a pretty woodsy and spacious site. The manager was very accommodating and nice! A good, central location.

Super nice management and facility 

Overall everything is good here. Site sizes, the staff, the layout. Everything is good. It’s tucked away at the base of the blue ridge so it’s a little tight on the road into the campground but it’s accessible. My only complaint is when you get here and try and navigate the grounds, it’s not very clear. A quick walk around solves that though.

Good

The people here were very nice.  I camped in the winter and they were incredibly helpful when it came to clearing snow and helping my car get unstuck.  

Very Friendly!

An average setting and location. Staff was above average and very nice. Our upgraded site came with a very nice propane grill and wooden deck/patio. (Paid upgrade) Not a ton of space between sites. Office/Store had some supplies and snacks. Restroom/Showers were clean but could use some updating. Nice hiking trail. 

Slightly above average

We stopped here for one night so we could visit Shenandoah National Park. The campground was extremely pleasant, as were the staff on duty. The sites were more spaced out than is typical for a KOA. They were also spacious and shaded. Since we were there for such a short stay we didn’t take advantage of any of the amenities although the pool looked nice. 

There are probably closer campgrounds to the entrance of the National Park, but this wasn’t too far away - maybe 45 minutes? Beautiful drive to get to the entrance. 

Very Nice Campground

I’ve reviewed this campground before but I feel like I need to reiterate what a great time we had here. The staff is super friendly and the sites are really spacious especially for a koa. We’ll certainly be staying again!!!

2nd review 

Positive: Friendly staff, close to Shenandoah NP, quiet camping, every site has a fire pit.
Negative: Pricing rather high


Beautiful situated and well kept campsite

Nice park, lots are a little close together but the tree make it private. Very clean park, well maintained. They have kids activities on the weekend but not during the week we were there. Just 17 min from the Luray Caverns. Only issue for us was the the trash disposal situation. Only pick ups are from 9 - 12. Other wise you have to walk all the way to the entrance of the campground. 

Nice KOA

Excellent KOA! Nice people at the camp shop and camp sites were well kept. Layout is nice to navigate with a camper. Hope to come back soon! 

Quiet and Clean

This was our first KOA experience. I liked the pool, camp shop, and proximity to Massanutten water park. I also liked the size of site.

My wife didn’t care for the lack of grass (mostly gravel) or the guy who took us to site that worked there talking over her when she was helping me back in.

Most people know this but if a couple is backing in just let them figure it out. 

Other than price and backing in annoyance, I thought it was good place and would go back.
