Best RV Parks & Resorts near Bluemont, VA

Several RV parks surround Bluemont, Virginia, providing convenient access to both mountain scenery and historic sites. Harpers Ferry / Civil War Battlefields KOA offers year-round full hookup RV sites with 50-amp service, though campers note the sites are "quite small and tightly packed together." Watermelon Park Campground in nearby Berryville features big-rig friendly sites with 30/50-amp electric and water hookups, but no sewer connections at individual sites. Bull Run Regional Park, open all year, provides spacious pull-through sites with full hookups including 50-amp service. Fort Valley Ranch maintains 45 RV sites with full hookups and both 30-amp and 50-amp options. As one RV owner observed, "Our site was extremely close to our neighbor's site, but still surprisingly roomy and decently shaded."

The mountainous terrain affects campground access in several locations. RV parks near Luray require navigating steep grades of 7% or more, with one traveler noting "the drive in requires about 25-miles through the roller coaster of steep grade hills." Most RV campgrounds in the region are pet-friendly with designated dog areas. Cell service varies significantly - AT&T generally performs better than Verizon in wooded areas. Dump stations are available at most parks, though not all sites offer sewer hookups. Fall and summer weekends fill quickly, particularly at KOA locations which offer additional amenities like pools and planned activities. Winter camping options remain available at select parks, with Harpers Ferry KOA and Bull Run Regional Park maintaining year-round operations for motorhome travelers.

    Ramblin' Pines

    Good location to Baltimore/Frederick Attractions

    We stay at Ramblin Pines because it is close to family and a good proximity to visiting Baltimore and Frederick. The campground is quite large with lots of seasonal sites but there are some transient spaces that can accommodate big-rigs. In addition to RV sites, there are tent sites and cabins. 

    We stayed in one of the transient sites (#FR14) across from the RV storage lot. It was a long gravel back-in with 50-amp FHU. The water hook-up is in a pit so it doesn’t freeze so look under the cover. It can be a bit difficult to reach and you have to get on the ground to hook-up. Based on the location of the spigot, we were not able to attach our water filter (we drank the tap water anyway and it was good). The electric worked fine and were able to reach the sewer with our 20’ hose. The view out of our front window was of the storage lot which was not the most scenic. However, parking in the FR row is the easiest place for big-rigs to park since some roads in the park are tight and hard to navigate with the trees and with the two-way traffic. 

    There are lots of amenities and it seems some people come here for the activities and things to do. It is a destination for many campers. They have lots of themed events, the most popular being the entire month of October celebrating like Halloween. They set up a haunted walk through the woods, have pumpkin carving, trick or treating, a costume contest, haunted hayride, and site decoration contest every weekend. If you want to camp on the weekends– book early because we found it very difficult to get a reservation during October and you have to pay in full and there are no refunds for cancellations. Other weekends have live music, bingo, hayrides, cornhole tournaments, crafts, and more. Basically, there is something every weekend. 

    Huge fishing pond, shuffleboard, horseshoes, large dog park with agility, game room, playgrounds, jump pillow, heated swimming pool, and exercise room (which was decent but didn’t have a television to occupy your time), 18-hole mini golf. A short but nice hiking trail winds through the woods and is nice for walking dogs. There is a large covered pavilion with picnic tables for big gatherings. There is free Wi-Fi but it doesn’t reach sites in the back of the campground. Wi-Fi is great if you are near the office/store. The camp store is fairly large with some food/beverage items, t-shirts, large amount of RV supplies, and misc. other items. There is a coffee maker with free coffee.

    Spacious Skies Shenandoah Views

    Camping Gem With a Great View

    We had a great stay at Spacious Skies Shenandoah Views in Luray, VA. 

    We stayed in a level back-in site(#39) with picnic table on a concrete patio, Adirondack chairs under a pergola on a second concrete patio, clean gravel surface, and fire pit. The site was big enough for our motor home and Jeep. Full hook-ups with 50-amp service. 

    Wow, what a view! Sunset over the mountains from our campsite each evening. Who could ask for more? 

    The campground is close to Shenandoah National Park and Skyline Drive as well as Luray Caverns and a few smaller tourist attractions including the Luray Zoo and Bear Mountain Zip-lines. 

    They have a clean pool and playground for little kids. The nearby dairy cow farm is fun too. 

    You can tell the new owners are making some upgrades including improving the utilities and adding wi-fi. 

    The drive in requires about 25-miles through the roller coaster of steep grade(7+%) hills. There’s no way around that, you’re in the mountains. Just be aware and be prepared. 

    THINGS I ESPECIALLY LIKED: 

    1. The best view from a campsite we’ve ever experienced 

    2. Less than 20-minutes from Shenandoah National Park and Luray Caverns 

    3. Clean campground

    Prince William Forest RV Campground — Prince William Forest Park

    Convenient

    Campground is close (ish) to the DC area. It is easy and convenient to get to. Almost all sites are pull through and are close together. Most have some tree cover (and some of the trees could use a trim along the roads). Some long term guests occupy the back sites which have sewer.

    Close to Prince William Forest which is a fantastic National Parks forest.

    Att coverage is good.

    Playground is nice.

    Harpers Ferry / Civil War Battlefields KOA

    More "glamping" than camping, but great for families!

    This campground is huge, and very crowded. We were there in the days leading up to 4th of July, and there was not a single empty site. Our section had mostly pop-ups and mid-size travel trailers, so the sites were all grass and gravel. However, the area with pull-through sites for big rigs was just a huge RV parking lot. All roads were very narrow and winding. We did fine with the pup, but can’t imagine trying to navigate a large motorhome through there. Crowding/space issues aside, this is a really nice (albeit expensive) campground. Almost everything, from the grounds, to rec halls, to pool and laundry, was sparkling clean and beautifully maintained. Bathrooms were reasonably clean as well, although they could certainly use some TLC and updating (most MD state park bathhouses are nicer).Staff was very friendly, as well. Tons of stuff to do here, especially for families: arts & crafts, indoor movie theatre, games, civil war reenactments, wine tastings, etc. We were certainly never bored, and the kids thought they had died and gone to heaven. Our site was extremely close to our neighbor's site, but still surprisingly roomy and decently shaded. We were right next to the pancake hut (free daily pancake breakfast included during the on-season) and playground, and very close to other activities. Harpers Ferry National Historical Park is just a stone's throw away, with great hiking, sight-seeing, and cute little shops.

    Overall, this is a really nice place, but much more of a resort than a campground in my opinion. The kids loved it, but I’ll always prefer the wooded seclusion of a state or national park. However, if I was looking for a more action-packed, activities-filled “glamping” experience, I wouldn’t hesitate to return.

    Andy Guest/Shenandoah River State Park Campground

    Too bad I had to leave

    Loved it! I’d love to spend a week here some time. There is no bad site in this campground. Immaculate upkeep. Lots of walking and hiking trails. Verizon has no signal at all, but AT&T was fine. Clean bathrooms, large showers, dump station. Water and electric on site but no sewer connection. Large campsites with picnic table and fire ring.

    Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park in Williamsport MD

    KID FRIENDLY

    This is a huge campground geared around kids. We didn't bring any with us this time and were just staying here overnight. We are in pull through site 753, pretty level gravel site, full hookups, picnic table and fire ring. The site wasn't well cleaned, grease dumped in the gravel, dead grass, lots of stink bugs! Also had to finagle the cable line to get it to work. There are very clean showers and restrooms, large camp store, restaurant, mining for kids, Waterpark, and pool. Many cabins, pull through, back in, and tent sites.

    Bull Run Regional Park

    Great Stay at Bull Run Reg. Park

    Great Park, friendly staff, clean facilities. We stayed with our Pop Up for two nights at an electric -supported site. Portable water and dumping station located at the camp store. We stayed at site 146 on the first caul-de-sac off the first loop just another site away from the bath house (which was pretty clean). We got rained on the first night so things got a little muddy but nothing out of hand. Tons of free activities for the kiddos facilitated by the camp staff over the weekends. Face-painting, ice cream sundaes, S'Mores, hay rides and a rock wall. Park has a lot of things to do as well just outside the campground. We took a try at disc golf which was a lot of fun. Pet friendly. We'll be back!

    Lazy A Campground

    Down home country

    I loved this campground. It is not a large campground in number of sites but has huge open fields for lots of outdoor fun. It has tent sites and level rv sites with 30 amp and water. No sewer. And one 50 amp site. Most sites have partial shade from the tree line. Each site has a fire ring and plastic picnic table. It has a creek for swimming or wading at your own risk. It also has horseshoes, playground, large outdoor picnic area, as well as a clean bathhouse with showers. There is a dump station and trash dumpster for your convenience on the way out of the campground.

    Skyline Ranch Resort

    Would NOT Stay here Again

    Ugh, this was one of the worst campgrounds we have stayed at in our twelve years of full-time RVing. First of all, the sites are very close together. Our site (which was#20 on the map but the number at our electric post was#102, go figure!) was supposed to be a pull-thru but we had to unhook the car because the site was so short and hard to get into due to narrow roads and tight turns with trees. The park is definitely not big-rig friendly, and all the sites are very close. There are many seasonals with old, dilapidated campers with lots junk around them. 

    We assume they call themselves a “resort” because there is a swimming pool, mini-golf, pavilion, playground, rental cabins, ball fields, dog park and a fishing pond, but it didn’t live up to the standards we consider for a resort. The mini-golf was in horrible condition. Everything was old and run-down. The “chalets” where super outdated, there was trash everywhere in the campground. Lots of seasonal sites with junk everywhere at their site. Behind us was a family who left their mean-looking barking dog chained to the tree all the time. The bathrooms are super outdated, and we wouldn’t even go in. Luckily, we had a full hook-up site. The nicest looking area of the park is the 8,000 square-ft Clubhouse which has a café, game room, adult lounge, wide screen tv, fitness center, and jacuzzi. We were there early in the season so some amenities were closed. There are farm animals on the property and a petting zoo with pigs, horses, ponies, goats, ducks, etc. They have a busy summer schedule of events which I’m sure entertains the kids and adults, but we weren’t staying long enough to participate. 

    Inside the brochure you get when you check-in are two-pages of guidelines and rules (which I doubt anyone reads). One of rules (#8) states that you have to clean up your area prior to departure, but since the seasonals weren’t departing I guess all the trash around their site was acceptable. That rule also states that fire pits have to be clean to fire pits but there were many fire pits full of trash.  

    I was a little nervous plugging into our electrical post which was completely wobbly and barely attached to anything and literally held together with packing tape– visions of an unpleasant electrocution experience flashed in my head. There is no cable but we were able to get seven over-the-air antenna channels (only one major network– ABC). All the utilities were at the back of our site and it took me a few minutes to find the sewer outlet which was near our neighbors designated parking spot. I suppose the only good thing was that Skyline Ranch Resort is a Passport America park and we only paid $35+tax/night for a 50-amp FHU site (which would have been the ridiculous high price of $70 otherwise). The only reason the campground gets two stars is because it was cheap for FHU. We would NOT stay here again.


Guide to Bluemont

RV camping near Bluemont, Virginia provides access to both Blue Ridge Mountain terrain and the historic Potomac River valley. The area sits at elevations ranging from 600-1,800 feet, creating varied camping conditions from riverside flats to mountain ridges. Most campgrounds near Bluemont experience seasonal temperature swings with summer highs reaching 90°F and winter lows dropping below freezing.

What to do

Riverside activities: Brunswick Family Campground offers direct Potomac River access with convenient boat facilities. "There is a boat loading ramp and dock for fishing. Half the campground are shaded with trees and half are in more of an open field. Also situated on the C&O canal, so you could walk or bike for miles in either direction for hours!" according to Susan K.

Historic exploration: Prince William Forest RV Campground serves as a base for exploring nearby historic sites. Kenneth H. notes: "Prince William Forest National Park is accessible for awesome day hikes. Civil War National Parks nearby. DC just up the road. National Marine Corp Museum just around corner."

Trail access: Harpers Ferry Campground provides immediate trail connections. "If you're facing the river then the trail is to the right of the campground with a sign reading that you have entered Harper's Ferry National Park. The trail is about 1.5 miles one way," explains Maggie A.

What campers like

River views: Watermelon Park Campground offers direct water access and mountain scenery. Matt S. shares: "Views of river and mountain towering above campground on opposite side. Cheap tube rentals with busses that take you 2-3 miles up the road and drop you at boat landing."

Privacy options: Bull Run Regional Park features campsites designed for more seclusion. "The sites are all pull-through off the roads through the campground. So your camper faces the woods and you feel like you're all alone," notes Roberta K.

Clean facilities: Fort Valley Ranch maintains well-kept amenities. Jason G. reports: "All the bathrooms and showers were remarkably clean and well-maintained. Also, another big one for me was that there was an abundance of shade throughout the site and the entire campground."

What you should know

Train proximity: Several campgrounds sit near active rail lines affecting noise levels. Sherri C. explains: "The river views were amazing, but face the other way and you're looking at a 15 or so foot CSX rail line berm. The trains that come through here almost hourly range from quick commuter MARC or Amtrak trains to long freight trains."

Seasonal limitations: Winter options become limited after October. Brunswick Family Campground operates seasonally with Dale Y. noting: "The campground is open from March 25 to November 1, making it unavailable during winter months."

Variable cell coverage: Mobile service fluctuates significantly across the region. Megan K. reports: "I can confirm Verizon and Google fi have great service. I would imagine any other carrier would work just as well."

Tips for camping with families

Playground access: Several campgrounds offer dedicated play facilities. Brian S. notes about Brunswick Family Campground: "The little store has just the necessities and there is an amazing playground for the kids."

Fishing opportunities: Stocked ponds provide kid-friendly fishing. Jason G. from Fort Valley Ranch states: "The kids were able to fish for hours at the two fishing ponds, which both were stocked with bass and bluegill."

Educational activities: Many sites offer organized programming. Bridget H. shares: "The campground had a climbing wall on one afternoon. There are miles of trails and my gkids enjoyed the nature scavenger hunt. You even get a prize when you finish."

Tips from RVers

Leveling challenges: Many sites require significant leveling equipment. "My site had a slight slope, but was easily overcome using additional blocks on the low side to get the trailer level," explains Drew M. about Bull Run Regional Park.

Road access considerations: Mountain roads present navigational challenges. Jason G. notes: "I was initially concerned about the road leading into the campground, as my rig is over 50 feet in total length. However, we were surprised that the winding roads presented no issues for us."

Utility variations: Water and electric hookups differ across campgrounds. Brian J. from Watermelon Park points out: "Price is a little high considering there is no sewer hookup (dump station is on site). A few things I'm disappointed in 1) no fire rings but you can use an above ground pit, 2) not all sites have picnic tables."
