Best RV Parks & Resorts near Shawsville, VA
Several RV parks near Shawsville provide varying levels of accommodation for motorhomes and travel trailers. Camp Alta Mons offers 44 sites with water and electric hookups, though limited to 30-amp service. Chantilly Farm RV/Tent Campground provides full hookup RV pads with 50-amp service on rolling hills just outside Floyd. Love's RV Hookup in Elliston features six pull-through sites with full hookups including sewer connections and both 30-amp and 50-amp electric options. Dixie Caverns Campground, located at the intersection of three roadways near Salem, maintains water and electric hookups plus cable at their pull-through sites. "Sites are marked only by a picnic table and rock fire ring, though RV sites are of adequate size for the largest of RVs, but they are side-by-side the length of the loop."
Mountain terrain affects access to several RV parks in the region. Many campgrounds require navigation through narrow, winding roads with elevation changes before reaching level parking areas. Travelers have noted significant highway noise at Dixie Caverns, where "semi-truck noise is loud during the twilight hours when the din of the day has disappeared." Most RV parks remain open year-round, though premium sites with water views fill quickly during peak season. Dump stations are available at most parks, but not all offer on-site propane refills. Cell service varies dramatically based on mountain location, with strong coverage near Interstate corridors but limited connectivity in valleys. Pet policies generally allow dogs but may restrict certain areas or require leashes throughout the property.
