"First time camping in any part of Virginia, very nice and clean campground, not too much outside noise besides the random car driving on the one road near by."
"We set up camp then walked over to the brewery/ restaurant for some flights and dinner. I recommend grabbing some growlers to go. Showers and restrooms were clean."

$15 - $80 / night
"We spent one night with our dogs at the walk-in campground at James Lake. It is a wonderful piece of nature. The campsites are far away from each other. Everything was very clean and taken care of."
"Campsite was right next to lake, beautiful views and easy water access. While we were there in April we only saw a couple other groups, and no other campers were anywhere near us."
$28 - $55 / night

There are plenty of places to fish!"

"This is one of Virginia’s best kept secrets for Cabins, RV or Tent camping.
The location is awesome; close to some great hiking spots, very accessible & well laid out."
"The upstairs neighbors were probably as quiet as they could be but you could still hear them walking around and using the plumbing.
The trout pond is not what they make it out to be on the website."
$15 - $18 / night
"Lake James is a true gem, clean and beautiful, with amazing views of Linville Gorge, Shortoff Mountain, and Table Rock. The State Park has several camping areas."
"This is a lovely little campground set on the shores of James Lake. Sites are big enough for 2 small tents or 1 largish family tent. All sites have a picnic table, fire pit with grate, and bear box."
"It should be noted that the warning about water moccasins posted previously is inaccurate as there are no water moccasins in this part of Virginia."
"Only thing is that there’s a dog, we think from a property nearby, that acts aggressive towards campers."
$15 - $18 / night
"Located in the middle of nowhere off of narrow Virginia secondary roads, we were surprised to get good Verizon reception. We stayed on site 15 which is a long pull-thru."
"Private, flat, and well maintained sites with great facilities, hiking/biking trails, and floating opportunities make this campground a good one to visit with family and friends!"
$35 - $75 / night
"The winding layout allowed for more distance between other sites. The woods were beautiful with easy walking trails right from the site."
"Back in sites for smaller trailers such as our teardrop were plenty big enough but still on the outskirts of the field. Bath house was very clean and very well thought out."
ScoutReally cool set up clean campground. The people are nice and the so are the views. The fishing ponds are great, bring a fishing pole!
TravelerI was unsure if I was in the right area. I never saw another person camping, but I did get out of my rig and ask a couple of people that were using brush hogs to mow with and they said Yep come on down here and just park wherever you want to as long as it’s not within 300 feet of the boat put in. Everything else is fair game, it’s for me being in the 29 foot classy. I opted to park it in a field/parking area at the entrance. I was the only one here all day.
TravelerShowed up around 5pm and were the only ones there. 6-8 different sites, all are beautiful and most are right next to the creek. There was a fire ring and man made stone oven at the site we chose.
ScoutThe visit was great. The campground is small and the amenities are limited. It’s not going to be a spend all your time at the campground and never get bored experience. However, the grounds are well kept, the shower and bathrooms were clean and the people working the grounds were friendly and helpful. Cell service is spotty but WiFi is available and adequate enough to stream movies. I was in site B31 full hookup and it was nearly at the front of the park. My water pressure was good but talking to other campers, the farther away you get from the front of the park the worse the water pressure gets. This came from a gentleman who had a site at the very back of the campground. This is a great place to use as a stop or a jumping off point for other adventures in the area.
TravelerI enjoyed my stay in this wooded campground. The sites were equipped with fire rings and picnic tables and level, gravel areas to park cars In front of your site. You couldn't pull your car into the site because of the wood bollards but I think that is a good thing.
There was a set of 2 well-maintained pit toilets. A Creek ran nearby the campground and there were options for trails. The campsites were well spaced apart.
GuideWe had a great time staying here, the site we were at was pretty private behind our camper. Bushes and trees on all sides of our fire ring and picnic table.
Clean bathrooms and wash stations.
Would recommend!
ScoutAside from the trash people had left from previous visits, it was perfect for a more primitive camping experience than a lot of modern campgrounds provided.
We picked up and threw away the people's old trash btw. Leave it better than you found it and this awesome site will continue to be fantastic.
ScoutStayed 5-5-25 It was clean, creek for water if you have filter. Nice fire ring and wood. Did not see another person.
TravelerRemote and quiet location. In season this place is very busy. Our visit is pre Memorial Day so it is low key. 80-90% of sites are 30 Amp. Limited 50 amp. TT maintains all facilities in a similar way and your experience will vary. We are passing thru so to be fair, it is best to come back for a longer stay
