Best and cleanest campground we have stayed at. Great amenities and close to the national park for hiking and exploring. Luray is a nice little town with some good food options
Guide
Family camping trip and we tagged along in our tent. We’ve been priced out of our area so pleased to find this hidden gem. A small, comfortable, family run campground that has enough amenities to keep the littles entertained and adults relaxing. We stayed in the tent area, which we had all to ourselves. Our site was on the river and able to pull our motorcycles right up. I do think if the tent area is full it will feel crowded. There’s a small bathroom attached to back of camp store nearby. Then the larger bathhouse down the way. The RV sites were flat, clean, in an open area. We will, for sure, be back.
ScoutThe tent sites are ON TOP of each other. No trees. Zero seclusion. This is an rv resort.
Ranger
Tented a cabin for two nights to hide from bad weather. Cabin had electric service, a microwave, electric heater, refrigerator and lights. The campground had no other guests during our stay.
The campground is long and narrow bordering on Abrams Creek. We took daily walks to the end of the campground and enjoyed the scenic views.
The campsite has port-a-potties for each cabin and for groups of campsites. Water was clean and had no oder.
The only concern noted was the bath house. It was poorly lighted and made of what looked like left over materials.
The gentleman that checked us in was a wealth of knowledge. He told us all about the campground and told us they offer an outdoor shower. Their were two outdoor shower stalls which were shower curtains next to the shower house.

We chose Sullivan’s Camp Cacapon for our first “glamping” trip, and we are so glad we did that! The camp is quiet and immaculately maintained, and it is situated in a lovely area along the river. We stayed in two brand new, enormous glamping tents. Each tent had two comfy queen-size beds, a heater, a fan, and two lamps with USB ports (a touch of luxury). The wi-fi in the camp worked very well for us, and we used it to exchange photos taken while hiking in the nearby Cacapon Resort State Park. The owners thought of everything—they even provided carts to transport your belongings to the site. The pavilion was nice and spacious, and it protected us from rain during dinner. The camp hosts were warm and friendly. We highly recommend this camp, and will be returning for sure!
Traveler
I came back for the second time in as many months. The owner reached out on the day I was arriving to let me know she was heading out for the weekend and ask if I needed any firework delivered before she left.
Campground was quiet just like last time. Really only saw one other person the entire weekend.
Guide
A clean and well maintained park. The staff is friendly and quick to respond to anyone’s needs. No restaurant within walking range so have food on hand. There are a few places that will deliver but the food is a 5 out of 10 at best. Hwy 81 is right next door so you will hear road noise.
Traveler
The campground is adjacent to a very large, very busy train yard. It’s not bothered me but you should be aware.
The campground is also right on the Potomac, easy to get to, reasonably priced, and the sites are spacious. The loops are small, each containing a dozen or fewer spaces. Many sites share a power pole and water faucet, but they are well situated.
There is a small camp store, but the campground is convenient to ample grocery stores, convenience stores, and restaurants as well as many local historic attractions.
Traveler
Busiest train corridor I’ve ever experienced, with several every hour all night. To add to the noise, there is a one-way tunnel a few feet from the campground. The practice is for cars to stop, blow their horn to announce their presence, then proceed into the tunnel.
I have a 14’ trailer, and it wouldn’t fit into my site perpendicular to the road. I had to pull past then back in so that I was parallel to the road. Ordinarily no big deal, except that the road isn’t a loop. It’s a single lane straight road in. No place to turn around, no way out except to back all the way out.
TravelerWe just got back from a few days at Middle ridge campground and it is now one of my favorite campgrounds. The owners are attentive, stopping by each day to check on us and see if we needed anything. The pool is well maintained, as are the restrooms. We were at site 14 which is right across from the pool. The site was a great size and well laid out.
I camp a few times a month, different places each time, and this is one of a few that I will return to.
ScoutWe recently stayed at Sullivan's Camp Cacapon and were truly impressed by the experience. The campsite is extremely well-maintained and offers a great mix of nature and comfort. We appreciated the cleanliness of the camp and the friendly owners who greeted us upon our arrival and even took us on an ATV ride down the river! Waking down to the Cacapon River was a highlight, providing a peaceful and refreshing start and end to each day. It's an ideal spot for anyone looking to escape day-to-day life and enjoy some quality time outdoors. We highly recommend for both new and seasoned campers!
ScoutI’ve done a lot of camping over the years in a variety of places across the US. Sullivan was unequivocally one of the best places I’ve been and it’s second only to the hospitality of the owners and even the janitorial staff, who do a phenomenal job by the way. If you’re looking for a quiet place away from the world, this is it. Don’t be concerned by the reviews of no signal, yes they are true, but isn’t that part of the appeal?
Ranger
I have to say this campground had plenty of staff working, the grounds were kept clean and maintained. They have 3 pools, watersides, and a splash pad, which were very busy but kept clean. They offer tons of other adventures like laser tag, arcade, mini golf movie theatre, gem mining, playgrounds, jumping pillows, ziplines, and then tons more to do in the craft center. They had plenty of appearances of Yogi or Cindy bear at activities and just driving around the park on a golf cart. The store had everything in it you would need, and the snack bar had so much to offer from wraps to ice cream. I thought the sites were a little close, and some didn't have enough trees for my personal liking, but also, you need to pick your site wisely. I liked that we had a nice concrete pad, which was above the grade in case of some rain it wouldn't flood. They offer golf carts for rental, so you can roam anywhere and have tons of cabin options. The staff were friendly and great and only stepped in when absolutely necessary. They weren't overbearing or annoying and let people have fun. The campground itself was very quiet at night, and of course, the kids lived on the playgrounds after the pool was open, but the noise was not ever excessive but just expected. The bathrooms were clean and all in working order. The app can be accessed, or you can pick up a paper schedule to see all the activities for the day. The cell service and wifi left a lot to be desired, but for me, I like to not be glued to my phone when away, especially camping. The area had fun things to go to explore, like Shenandoah National Park and the Luray Caverans, if you do like to chase some natural beauty.
Guide
Great location, amazing amenities(huge pool, game room, snack bar, camp store, coffee shop etc.), and friendly employees, but these are where the positives end. I've never stayed at a KOA/campground where the sites were so unlevel, close together, and the whole infrastructure in need of repair.
The Historic trench section is nice in the trees, but the roads are crumbling and too small for most RV's. If the person across from your site is already parked, good luck having enough room to back into your site. Our site was so unlevel that I was not able to get the RV leveled the entire weekend. Looking at the surrounding sites most campers were jacked high on blocks or sloping significantly. The section of sites were on a curve/semi-circle, which caused the site beside ours to be even smaller. We had to move our picnic table to give space for this person to back his camper on the site. They were unable to get even close to level so they didn't put out their slide. There is a new section to the campground out in the open whose sites are more level, but they are even closer together than the section we stayed in.
In addition to the poor sites, little enforcement was done regarding monitoring the number of people on the sites and the partying going on. A nearby site had 15+ people on Friday night partying and carrying on until 1:30AM until a fight broke out. They had a boombox on the bumper of the camper and blasted music all evening. After hours any vehicle can enter the campground as there is no gate. Cars/trucks pulled up to the party sites, who just drove in to party. I know calls were made to the office as neighboring campers stated to us. On Saturday night, the group wasn't quite as rambunctious, due to a visible presence of staff driving by, but with a campground this size, regular monitoring and shutting down of quiet hour violators should occur pre-actively. Harpers Ferry KOA could be so much more if they would invest in site upgrades and rule monitoring. We will not return.
Scout
If your looking for cleanliness find another campground. The bathrooms and Showers in the campground and the beach house are Gross all the time. The swim area leaves a brown residual stain in your swimwear and on your person. A simple shower won't get the stuff off your skin you will have to scrub multiple times to get clean. Forget getting a peaceful night's sleep because you won't due to dogs barking and the amount of traffic traveling through the area or by the campground. The Lack of rangers presence and lack of cleanliness has made this place go from a nice place to spend time to a absolute last resort when it comes to camping for my family.
TravelerThe campground is beautiful and everything is well maintained. The bathroom is clean. There is open space and tree cover. There is river access.
We love it here. The first year we stayed on a tent site. We upgraded to the cottage the last 2 years. For the amazing comfortable beds and the ac. The upgrade is worth it.
The owner is amazing and goes out of his way to help his campers and make sure everyone is enjoys their time.
I can't say enough good things about the camp.
TravelerThe campground offers full hook ups, a nice clean pool & facilities. Spacious campsites & the owners are super sweet. Will camp there again!
Scout
We really enjoyed our stay here. Sites, amenities, and bathrooms/ showers were all clean and well kept. Staff was always friendly and accommodating (we even extended our stay and while our first site was booked they found us a near by site that was open). No problems with hook ups or dump station.
Guide
This is one of our favorite campground that we visit often. We love that the campground has their own beach so it’s not over crowded with the public. Near the beach there is a nice playground near shade for parents to watch. I really like that there are trails from the camp loops to the beach. The bathhouses are always clean and well stocked. The camp sites are tucked into the woods with plenty of room for camping.

This is a glamping / camper cabin option that is listed on AirBnB, and where I stayed with my dog while visiting the Shenandoah Mountains. It is billed as a "treehouse" but is actually a cabin up in the tree canopy and set into the side of a hill with stilts on one side. The balcony all around the house to the backside does indeed have you up at bird nest level, but you access the front door from a set of steps on terra firma on top of the slope. The location is on private land, though the owner's house is at a good distance so your spot has solitude and privacy. There is a lovely pond adjacent, and you can hike beautiful country lanes around the property. This is such a beautiful abode in a beautiful location! Off the beaten path if you want a quiet retreat, but not too far from lots of interesting places and things to do nearby, in the hamlet of Mt Hope or in the town of Strasburg, or in nearby Shenandoah National Park. The treehouse is beautifully crafted, clearly a labor of love to build it. Warm cozy and comfy with everything you need. Spic and span, nice woodwork and ambiance, nice setting for walks relaxing on the balcony under the trees. Overall a great experience and I hope to come back! I am grateful for the chance to stay at such a nice place, which was especially beautiful in the midst of fall with all the changing colors. I am also glad that my dog was welcome!
A couple of hints—the bedroom is a “loft with a view” which is great for watching the night sky! But is only accessed via ladder, so you need to be able to do that. If you can't climb a ladder, or you want to be near your dog on the lower level, you have the option of using the sofa sleeper on the main floor. Also, the bathroom area has a space saving and water efficient combo with commode and shower in proximity so you might want flipflops for occasions when the floor is wet from a recent shower.
Also note: because this is an AirBnb listing, the price varies depending on length if stay. The base rate was 65$ a night, but there was a set cleaning fee of 35$ whether you stay for one night or a week.
GuideA beautiful campground with everything a tourist could possible want for a spectacular vacation. Surrounded by dairy farms, the fields of grains leave open space that enables each campsite to have a view of the Blue Ridge mountains in the distance. Each evening, people would come out and turn the colorful patio chairs towards west and enjoy a spectacular sunset. During the day, there is so much to do at the nearby Shenandoah Nation Park, drive down the Blue Ridge Parkway, or visit the caverns or the Artisan Trail businesses full of local handcrafts.
Scout
Huge campground. Lots of activities. But very run down. Lots of permanent RVs. All parked very close. On the river but totally overgrown so no real view. Safe for one night. Overpriced at $70
ScoutGreat campground, roads are a little rough but it is a a very beautiful area and so peaceful.
ScoutStaff were very nice and helpful and check in was very quick & easy. Some sites are tight for longer units even though it states it can accommodate. The outer edges of the campground are wonderful spots for family and larger units.

Had my wedding 2022 at Jennings picnic area and then after that spent the whole weekend away from everyone and everything! Peaceful in September love the area grew up over camping every summer at Jennings but wanted something more secluded for honeymoon. Husbands dad was one of the union workers who helped build Jennings and my dad built multiple tourist attractions around it. Gorgeous landscape and it’s my peace
ScoutMy bride & I roll in a DIY Class B (2017 For Transit High Top & Extended Length). It is VERY WELLL MAINTAINED inside & out. It is 100% Self Contained. Stayed at over 100 Campsites.
Made online Reservations without any problem. Walked into the campground office to get my spot & the first question was "Do you have an RVIA Number". That is when I was told I could not stay at Candy Hill. The individuals (Jonathan & Eddie were nice & kept stating "I am only doing my job". My online reservation was cancelled & my money was refunded. This was around 05:00 pm on Feb 3rd 2024. Left & found another campground. CANDY HILL ONLY WANTS RV's that are RVIA Certified.
RangerOur last trip here was interesting. This was one of our favorite camping grounds back a few years ago. The views are beautiful! If you have a tent, the deluxe tent sites are AMAZING! They have a roof over the picnic table which is helpful as it's one less thing to drag with you. If you have a small camper as we do, well you really need to look at site guides and campers pictures as many places as you can before you proceed. You also should be prepared to pay extra for locking the site if that is the one that you want. This BOTHERS me! If the site is available and I am booking it, why can another camper bump me out of the site? Oh wait, I know! $$$$$$ speak! I'm all about free enterprise, however I just feel this is nickle and diming/greed to the extreme, and as a consumer, I don't appreciate it. Knowing what I know now, there are a few sites I would never book ever again! (sites 85, 87, 94, 92, 90) We happened to arrive during some bad storms, so that didn't make our situation better. The site I had booked was on a slant and when we went to release our unit from the hitch, it slid….not something you want to happen to your new camper! I told my husband to put it back on the hitch ball and in the meantime, I phoned the office to see if we could move. I was given some site numbers that were available, however the incoming rain had us pick something rather fast that was level and on a cement pad, but unfortunately right in front of the playground. We had no idea that when the pool closed, the kids came to the play area and they were loud! If you are looking for a peaceful experience, do not book near any of the play areas. You should also know we spent quite a bit more cash for this site, but it was not worth what we spent.
There are not a whole lot of trees and sites are small. There are some great amenities and it was an ok weekend, but for the money that you spend here, you can just as easily find a hotel and enjoy it. I can only give it 3 stars.
