"While the campground is very nice, with clean conveniently located bathrooms, the site itself is probably not suited for a large group of people."
"Our site had the AT running right behind it. The was plenty of access to trails, and pretty central to the park. The campground is near showers, laundry, campstore, and visitor center."
$30 - $75 / night
"This campground is perfect for those looking to just get away from things for a couple of days."

"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."
$50 / night

"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."

"Campground is tucked away but has nice large sites, large lake , pool. Friendly staff"
TravelerWe stayed here for one night for our travel home. Not far off i95, plenty of signage telling you where to go.
Once here it's tucked away nicely away from everything, sites feel spacious enough and mostly level on their own.
Pool facility looks clean and good size for all to enjoy. With a playground right next to it and a small mining operation for the kiddos.
Will likely be back to explore the area more!
GuideNice little campground on the river. RV sites are spaced out and have wooden fences on the sides. 30 amp service at the site. You can fill your water tanks as you enter the campground.
Inter tubes and kayaks are available to rent. There are also several river rafting companies close by.
The camp store seemed basic. Not a lot of supplies if you forget something. Front Royal is 20 minutes away and has several outdoor stores.
We didn’t have need of the bath house but did check it out. A little dated but functional.
GuideThis is a lovely RV park built up a mountain side overlooking the picturesque Shenandoah Valley, located in a deep old hardwood forest. Care has been given to support the original trees and native plants. The ‘resort’ features include a pool, laundry, pickleball courts, volleyball courts, disk golf, horseshoes, picnic tables and fire rings, a kid’s activity area, a rec center that includes an arcade, swings, and tables. There are some local trails and the 15-minute hike up to the Endless Caverns sign offers a lovely view of the valley and an acre+ field of wildflowers they have sewn.. Picnic tables are provided up there. The bathhouse was fully tiled and very clean. The office offers ice, firewood, and a gift store with a few RV components. In addition to RV sites they have added a nice set of cabins. The Endless Caverns actually adjoin the office welcome center and tours are offered multiple times daily. It would be tough for arthritic knees… but we really enjoyed the raw nature of the caverns. There is plenty to keep kids occupied!
Many FHU sites in our area (C) are large enough for a trailer, TV and a clam. Pull-through sites are available. Sites in C usually back up into a wooded or naturally landscaped area that allow a nice sense of woodsy privacy. Sites are mostly level. Sites in section E appear tighter with less shelter. The higher sites might require your TV have 4WD. Be very particular with your site selection!
While Wi-Fi routers are set up at the bathhouses, we had some connection at the trailer. We picked up a dozen channels on our antenna and the 2-3 bar Verizon LTE enabled us to stream some channels on Fire TV.
Locally you can enjoy wineries, orchards and cideries. Luray Caverns (an absolute MUST) is a pleasant 35-minute drive. Virginia’s Skyline Drive and the Shenandoah National Park crosses near Luray. New Market offers significant Civil War appeal. We greatly enjoyed the Virginia Museum of the Civil War and the New Market Battlefield Museum.
Be aware that, as a resort, they will tack on a$10 daily resort fee to the booking price. Given how nice the RV park is, the fee feels appropriate. There are 3-night and 5-night stay discount codes on the Promos tab. When you make a reservation there is an extra cost to lock in a site(something we see often these days). We reserved our spot for another week in the Fall at a discount before leaving.
TravelerGreat established free campground! We got the last spot around 7pm. Site had a fire pit, table, parking spot, and tent platform. We used one of the sign in slips but many of the other campers did not. Bathrooms and beer proof trash was provided. Nice trails/creek behind site.
LegendWe spent 2 nights at Creekside Campground in Edinburg, VA on our way to West Virginia—- and found a real gem.
We paid$50/night for Back-in Creekview FHU Site#20. Once I was able to negotiate a few big trees, the site was plenty roomy and right on the water. Lots of ducks wandering around kept us entertained.
This picturesque spot, minutes off I-81, has about 30 gravel sites. No amenities like swimming pools or game rooms, but it makes a nice layover or base camp to explore the Shenandoah Valley and local Civil War sites.
THINGS I LIKED:
Great site on the water
Clean and level gravel site with well-maintained utility hook-ups
Minutes from I-81
Super friendly staff
The whole park is quiet and well-maintained
THINGS I DISLIKED:
WOULD WE COME BACK?
Absolutely, this is a nice campground staffed by super nice people with close proximity to I-81.
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.
GuideIt’s a typical KOA. Well managed, clean, friendly staff. The sites are large enough and level enough. The power pole is well positioned.
Laundry room, bathrooms, and shower are well maintained and clean. The camp store isn’t well stocked for food but local shopping is minutes away.
While convenient to II 81, the campground is far enough away that there is no outside noise at all.
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.
GuideWe stopped one night before on our way south through the park. Was a great place to stop it was quiet and not much going on. Bathrooms were clean!
ScoutAwesome spot! Got the last site at 6PM on the Friday of Memorial Day weekend. Very respectful neighbors so it was very quiet
