GuideI fear that yurt glamping may have ruined me against tent camping again! This was absolutely lovely. We stayed in the painted horse yurt. Cozy, comfy, lots of amenities. The only downside here is the sulfur odor the water in the bathroom has, but it is very good for your skin at least! I’d stay here again for sure.
ScoutFriendly staff, great riding right from the camper and a neat playground for the kids.
ScoutStayed here for 2 weekday nights in mid-October, late season. Nice & quiet. Warm showers, clean bathrooms, nice staff.
There was some vehicle activity with vehicles as they were still running river trips.
Very pleasant.
GuideQuite the dump and almost no one around to talk to. There is a bathroom with running water, flushing toilets, and a shower. But it is cramped and not attractive. Most of the sites are right underneath the freeway, and very noisy. Primitive sites away from the road noise are nothing more than a wide area of the dirt road.
ScoutWas looking for a last-minute getaway on a busy weekend, and they seemed the best option. I've always associated private campgrounds with crowding and sites on top of each other. I couldn't have been more wrong about The Cove. There is more wooded space between sites than in many National Parks.
Some sections are best accessed via 4WD, which I think is a great way to keep things from getting too crowded.
Such a huge diversity of types of sites, from lakeside to wooded, to open fields. They have something for everyone.
The bathrooms are ok. Other than the shower area and the reception, most toilets are pit toilets. If you want to be walking distance to showers, make sure to book sites near them. For most sites, it's going to be a hike or a drive.
And on top of that, they have a beach for the kids, boat rentals, and a range.
This was our first visit, but we will definitely be coming back.
TravelerVery disappointed in our recent four-night stay at Misty Mountain Campground this October.
Prior to our arrival, both my husband and I made numerous attempts to verify our site and reservation details. My husband called for five consecutive days and left messages each time, and I sent an email; however, we received no response.
When we arrived, the check-in process was extremely frustrating. I was initially told we had no reservation. After explaining that I was part of a wedding group, had already paid, and had been assigned a site number, the registration staff member continued to insist the reservation could not be found. After being ignored for 10 minutes and having to explain the situation again, she located our booking, but assigned us to the wrong site.
Additionally, the site and facilities fell far below expectations for an "RV Resort":
Overall, the lack of communication, poor customer service, and substandard conditions made for a very negative experience. I hope they deal with their issues because it is a lovely area.
TravelerSomething for everybody; long term slots, primitive camping, with electricity and water, with full hookups, day use ramps for Lake Anna, huge covered picnic area for large gatherings, rv sites in the woods and others on the edge of large field. Staff are great.
RangerNo other available sites, so used tent site 35 parking spot to stay in campervan. Worked fine. Nice campground. Saw at least 10 deer along sides of road from entrance to campsite.
ScoutFirst camping trip in VA and honestly the only time we’ll come here. Noisy, plots are on the main road people speed down, loud music at all times. Plus the bathroom was great, taken care of but this isn’t camping. Great if you need people around you.

Fall temperatures drop approximately 15-20 degrees, with overnight lows frequently dipping below 40°F in October and November.
Trail access from campsites: Several cabins at Big Meadows Campground connect directly to hiking trails.

The campground sits at 3,500 feet elevation with trails ranging from easy meadow walks to challenging mountain climbs.
River activities: Shenandoah River Outfitters Camp Outback provides cabin accommodations with river access. "This place is great. I've been coming here for years. The campground is a short walk through the woods to the river if the need to cool off in the hot summer months arises," shares Jessica. The outfitter offers tubing trips lasting approximately 2-4 hours depending on water levels.
Winter cabin options: Several Luray cabin locations remain open year-round. "We camped here the last night of the season (Nov30)... The bathrooms were plentiful, heated, hot running water, and a utility sink available. It was an especially cold night hitting a low of 14F," reports Carol B. about Big Meadows Campground.
Riverside cabin locations: #1 Rock Tavern River Kamp offers waterfront yurts and cabins. "We could not have asked for a nicer location! Our tent was about 20 feet from the river and the campground had everything we could have asked for (including spotless bathroom and shower facilities!)" says Matthew G. Their cabins have electric service but no running water.
Cabin privacy levels: Lewis Mountain Campground offers smaller, more secluded cabin options. "This is the Best campground in the park! The spots are secluded, there's bathrooms that are in good shape, and it's super close to some awesome hikes and great sunset lookouts," reports Molly G. The campground has 31 total sites with cabins clustered in the northern section.
Family amenities: Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park Luray receives high marks from families for cabin accommodations. "We had a great time at Jellystone. The Mountain View is gorgeous.

The campground features a water park with slides and splash zones operating from Memorial Day to Labor Day.
Cabin reservation timing: Fall cabin bookings require significant advance planning. "Big Meadows Campground was wonderful. Facilities were clean and well maintained. Bear box for food storage. Loved seeing the deer so close and other wildlife," reports Terri S. Cabins at Big Meadows typically book 6-8 months in advance for October weekends.
Wildlife considerations: Cabin campers should prepare for animal encounters. "Big Meadow has many amenities which make it popular and oftentimes crowded during weekends and holiday's. We saw many deer and bear while camping," notes Rachel M. Bear-proof food storage is required at all Shenandoah National Park cabin locations.
Terrain challenges: Many cabin sites feature uneven terrain. "Our site, B112, was surrounded by shrubs under the canopy of trees which provided tons of privacy," writes Veronica S. about Andy Guest/Shenandoah River State Park Campground. "The bugs when we got here were kinda crazy. They don't bite but they swarm your head and try to enter every orifice for some reason. A head net was helpful."
Entertainment options: Family-oriented cabin campgrounds offer structured activities. "This isn't my idea of camping, but I brought my 11 year old nephew. He was able to run around and make friends with his aunt always looking over his shoulder. He had lots of fun at pool, movie night, making s'mores, and jumping on bouncy mound," reports Anne K. about Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park.
Rustic cabin education: Consider state park cabin options for educational opportunities. "Clean, neat, and family oriented. Campground is meticulously clean with daily restroom cleaning and trash pick up. Nice amphitheater with interesting ranger programs," shares Kim L. Programs run May through October with most activities occurring between 7-9pm.
Water-focused locations: Luray RV Resort on Shenandoah River offers cabins with river access. "We recently stayed for a long weekend at the Outlanders campground...The park and facilities were very clean. They have a playground for the kids, fishing ponds, cabins, pet friendly with a dog park and they are located right along the Shenandoah river. You can go tubing on the river but need to provide your own tubes," notes Joe.
Off-season benefits: Cabin camping during shoulder seasons offers advantages. "We stayed here for 3 nights in August for our little guy's 8th birthday. It was perfect for kids! The kids loved running off in the open field and playing on the zip line. We loved that we could see them from our site," shares Jen O. about Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park.
Connectivity issues: Internet access varies widely between cabin locations. "Cell signal and camp wifi are bad. I was just able to get a decent signal with Starlink by carefully pointing at a small gap between trees," reports Dale Y. about Harrisonburg-Shenandoah Valley KOA. For reliable connections, cabins closest to camp offices typically offer better WiFi reception.
